Harvest Flower Blanket Crochet Pattern
How about a beautiful, calming flower blanket crochet pattern today? Made with my favorite easy flower granny square, this works up like a dream!
You’ll see the full, free pattern below, or you may choose to grab the ad-free, printable pattern from Etsy HERE or the kit with lots of color options from Lion Brand HERE.
There is also a full, step by step tutorial and video for the flower granny square HERE!
You might remember the Sunny Blooms Blanket that I shared, and this is very similar BUT different!
First, you’ll notice the earthy, muted color tones of the yarn. I love this for the fall and winter months! It’s also made with a chunky #5 yarn, which makes it a great mid-weight type throw.
The blanket itself is quite a bit larger than my Sunny Blooms Crochet Blanket, and it could be made even larger with more rows of border. In fact, it’s generously sized at around 58″ inches long!
I absolutely love the drape on this Harvest Flower Throw! Using a larger hook than what the yarn calls for creates a looser, comfy fabric.
You might have noticed that several of my patterns use a larger hook than the yarn calls for. Not only does it often give it a nice drape, it also makes for a quicker project. Yay!
Okay, let’s get to this lovely, fall worthy blanket!
Remember that you can grab the ad-free, printable version, with the photos to help you from my Etsy Shop HERE!

It also includes the video you’ll see below.
Assembly
Using the larger hook if needed, sew your squares together as shown below using a flat slip stitch seam. You may use any yarn colors that you like! Feel free to modify your seaming method as well. Note that the larger hook may be used for the seams as they can tend to be tight and pull the fabric together. Adjust your tension or hook if necessary.
Border (optional)
Using your leftover yarn and size N hook, make 3 dc in each space around blanket. In each corner make 3 dc, ch2, 3dc. If the blanket border starts to be wavy, you may need to work only 2 sts, rather than 3 stitches into some of the spaces. Work one round or more as desired. You can add more length and width to the blanket with the border edges. The pictured throw has 3 rows of border on the short ends and one row on each side. Tie off and weave in ends. Block if desired. Feel free to add tassels or poms as well!
That’s it!!
