Flower Granny Echo Crochet Afghan - Corner Blanket
"This blanket starts off with the Flower Granny Square and then continues to make this simple echo like effect for this corner blanket. You use only 2 sides of the granny so they are in short rows for each side and easy to keep track of the stitch count. Use any 4 colors you like, but I recommend using your lightest color for the border rows. Keep crocheting the repeat until you have it as big as you want. PDF INFO: THIS IS THE FULL PATTERN and includes the granny square pattern too. Pictures as well as Tutorial links for both the are also in pattern for easy access. I used 4 colors for this project. I would get 2 skeins of each color except for the Main color, I'd get 3 skeins of this.
