The Clematis Crochet Quilt

First things first…

Gather your squares and yarns, along with a sewing needle. You’ll use all your yarn colors to sew the design together.

How do I arrange my squares?

We’ve got a handy photo of the finished quilt in each of our 4 yarn pack colors to help you get your squares in a row:

Sewing up your squares

Once you’ve laid out your squares, sew them up using whip stitch in the same color yarn as the panels. If you’re sewing 2 different colors together, use the lighter shade to sew.

Crocheting the border

Once your panels are all sewn together, you’ll use your Main Color to work 2 rounds of single crochet along the edges of your blanket.
