    Boy-yo-Boy!!! Yarn bombings have become the rage now. Very popular in places and there’s a yarn bombing site(s) too. Used to be egging a place on Halloween, when the folks weren’t home. Toilet papering too! My oldest brother is absolutely NOT an angel! Ha! I’m glad this is more constructive! I hope they put a zipper in it(?) Since it’s only temp. Hugs!

Free Crochet Flower Square Blanket Pattern

There’s something so timeless about a floral crochet square—and this free Flower Square Blanket pattern from HiCrochet has totally captured my heart. It’s a beautiful blend of vintage charm and fresh, modern layout, with each square showcasing a bold, blooming flower at its center. Whether you’re creating a full-size blanket or just want to experiment with the squares for cushions or smaller projects, this pattern is super versatile—and totally free.

If you’re a fan of colorful motifs and modular projects, this one’s going to be a joy to stitch. I love how each flower square feels like its own little work of art, and putting them all together really makes the whole blanket pop. It’s the kind of pattern you’ll keep coming back to—easy to customize, beginner-friendly, and endlessly satisfying. Grab your favorite yarn colors, start stitching, and let those flowers bloom!
