It’s Christmas season and nothing is better than decorating it!

I have put together nine Christmas blankets and afghans so you can knit them at Christmas. Best of all, these patterns are all free patterns.

Projects include snowflakes, trees, sas, dwarfs, snowmen, Christmas lights, and plaid. Some of these projects are made like granny squares and then assembled, while others work corner to corner and one works back and forth in a row.

#1. CHRISTMAS GRANNY SQUARE BLANKET FREE CROCHET PATTERN

Here Grandma’s Afghan Square Crochet is simple and fun. All squares are the same, the decorations on them are different. Maria initially started this project as a crochet, so there is a link to every week where the pattern is written online for free. I’ve also included a link in case you want to purchase the PDF version of the template. Combed yarn is used in this project.
