Good morning,,
I saw a beautiful granny square call pattern for a blanket on pinterest in white and blues but if I go to the link I end up in your site but no sign of the crochet blanket I liked.
Kind regards Anja
Hi Anja, sorry for that! sometimes the links from Pinterest are broken and lead to other pages. I’ll look into our pins to make sure it’s not one of ours. In the meantime you can explore our blanket category to search for the one you liked.
