Filet Monogram Blanket

This idea is so simple and straightforward – and awesome – that I really wish I’d thought of it. Everyone seems to love the idea of a family name or monogram in filet. Filet is hard for me.

Making smaller squares, like granny’s daughters, would work for everything from a scarf to an inset in an afghan made of larger squares. The math of this would not defeat me!

You can get started with this technique using the information available here and here.
