Today I am sharing part 3 of our Sweet Lilac Crochet Along with you! If you are just joining us you can find out more info about this crochet along here. To sum it up, we are making a quilt inspired throw using a fun join as you go C2C technique.
Part of what makes doing a CAL fun is sharing with other crocheters who are also participating. I invite you to join my crochet group on Facebook, this is a great place to share your progress, ask questions and participate in other fun yarny shenanigans.
This blanket pattern assumes knowledge of the Corner to Corner (C2C) stitch. If you need a tutorial please check out this post.
Windblown Block
This week’s square is called the Windblown block. I love the movement in this one! I filmed a brand new tutorial for you this week too.

I hope by now this technique is feeling a little bit easier for you, I know it is challenging.

Let’s Get Started, here’s what you need:
-Your worsted weight yarn. I used 4 coordinating colors and my main color (white). Please feel free to use your scraps or stash for this project. Just be sure that your main color stays the same for the entire block. Also, the design will stand out more if there’s a high contrast between your main color and coordinating colors.
-5mm hook
-scissors, tapestry needle
Guage: Each 7×7 c2c block should measure approx: 5 in square

Starting Method and direction For Each Block
Note: place a stitch marker on block number 1 once it’s in position to start block 2. This will mark the “front” side. All blocks start on the front side.
