Bolderwood is named after the beautiful forest which is also a deer sanctuary in New Forest. This is made out of four types of squares which are then joined together to form a large blanket. You are in complete control of how large you would like the blanket to be. I have laid them out diagonally in a style of traditional patchwork quilt; starting from the corner you have rows of textured squares, followed by rows of plain squares, each row uses one or two colours. All the squares are joined using flat slip stitch joint, then the edging is crocheted on. I have loved making this blanket as you can’t beat the portability of a crochet square, you can take them anywhere. 

Pattern notes

• Stitches used: ch, dc (USsc), tr (US dc), front post stitches, spike dc (US sc),sl st
• The level of difficulty is 3 - the plain, linen and spinke squares are simple, but the lattice stitch could prove a little bit more chalanging.
• The pattern comes with written instructions and charts for each motif. Also included in the pattern are picture tutorials for the joining of squares, chainless foundation double crochet and how to work the joint in the squares.
  
• The pattern is in either UK or US terminology. choose which version you would like before adding to basket.
