Over 100 different blanket squares can be knitted up to create a dozen unique afghans in a variety of styles. Projects range from baby's first comfort blanket in subdued pastels, to brightly coloured motifs embellished with beads and buttons for the spirited teenager.

And step-by-step instructions show you how to pieces the squares together to create your finished afghan.
You can follow the patterns given for the twelve designs, or have fun experimenting with your own choice of squares selected from the 100 different designs offered to create your own unique afghan.
