Christmas Shimmer Peppermint Granny Square And Blanket Crochet Pattern

Christmas Shimmer Peppermint

Granny Square

And Blanket Crochet Pattern

By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

I have wanted to design a Peppermint Christmas Blanket
For a few years. I Love peppermint coffee, candy,
ice cream and anything peppermint. I could
not decide on what yarn to use. That is until I found the

Premier Basix Shimmer Peppermint. It is the perfect shade

of Christmas red, and bright white, and has a thread of

metallic running through it. Yes, It is perfect matched

with the Bright White of the Premier Just Yarn.

I decided to make it a granny square style blanket.

That way it can be just about any size, depending on

how many of the 9 inch squares you want to make.

It is a throw blanket for tossing over a chair, couch or bed,

but also a blanket for a Christmas baby gift.

It also makes a festive nice lap blanket.

The Squares can be used for a pillow, bag, wrap

poncho and scarf. As well as, a table runner or

place mats. That is why I love Granny Squares so

much, there are just so many uses for them
