    Being Spiffy

    This free crochet pattern from Being Spiffy is designed as a dishcloth and certainly works well in that way. However, it could also be used as the basis for a blanket design. As with the squares above, you could either adapt the pattern to a larger size by changing to larger hook and yarn, or you could make multiples of the dishcloth and stitch them into a large afghan.
