Crochet Granny Square Blanket, Handmade Flower Afghan Throw, Gift for Her

Some things can't be rushed. This blanket is one of them. Every flower on this blanket began as a single loop of yarn in my hands. Each African flower square is crocheted round by round, color by color: a navy heart, cornflower petals, a ring of mustard, a frame of warm cream. Then every square is joined to the next by hand, every yarn end is woven in one by one, and the whole blanket is finished with a soft cream border. It takes weeks of quiet, patient work to make just one, and no two ever come out exactly alike. This isn't a blanket from a shelf. It's an heirloom granny square afghan, made slowly and made for one home: yours. The kind of piece that's folded at the foot of a bed for years, pulled over knees on winter evenings, and one day handed down. ✦ CHOOSE YOUR SIZE Baby Blanket — approx. 100 × 100 cm / 39 × 39 in. A first heirloom for a little one: the stroller, the play mat, the baby book photos. Throw Blanket — approx. 130 × 170 cm / 51 × 67 in. Made for the sofa, the reading chair and long movie nights. Bed Size — approx. 200 × 200 cm / 79 × 79 in. A hand-crocheted bedspread that covers the top of a full or queen bed: the centerpiece of a room. ✦ THE MAKING - Every flower square crocheted by hand in several rounds, every color changed by hand - Squares joined one by one by hand, every yarn end woven in for a clean finish on both sides - Yarn: soft cotton blend (55% cotton, 45% acrylic), breathable, gentle on the skin and made to keep its shape - Colors: navy, cornflower blue, mustard, brown and cream, a timeless palette that feels at home in a boho, cottagecore or classic room - Made to order, just for you: 3–4 weeks for the Baby Blanket, 4–8 weeks for the Throw and Bed sizes. This is the time real handwork takes. ✦ A GIFT THAT MEANS SOMETHING A blanket like this says what a store-bought gift can't: someone made this, by hand, for you. It's a gift for mom or grandma she'll treasure, a housewarming or wedding gift a couple will keep for a lifetime, or a baby shower gift that becomes a family heirloom. And if you're treating yourself, you deserve it too. ✦ QUESTIONS WE OFTEN HEAR Is it really handmade? Yes. Every single square, every join and every border stitch is worked by hand. Nothing is machine-made. Why does it take so long? Because each flower is crocheted round by round and joined by hand. We'd rather take the time than cut a corner. Which size fits a bed? The Bed Size (79 × 79 in) covers the top of a full or queen bed as a bedspread or a layered coverlet. Need it larger? Message us for a custom size. Is it warm? It's a medium-weight crochet blanket: cozy through fall and winter, breathable in spring. Can I choose my own colors? Yes. Send us a message before ordering and we'll create your palette together. Will it arrive by Christmas? The Baby Blanket can, if ordered now. For the Throw and Bed sizes, please message us before ordering and we'll tell you honestly what's possible. ✦ A GENTLE NOTE - Baby Blanket: following safe-sleep guidance, please keep loose blankets out of the crib for babies under 12 months while they sleep. It's perfect for supervised cuddles, play and the stroller. - Because every blanket is made by hand, tiny variations are part of its character. ✦ CARE Treat it like the heirloom it is: hand wash gently in cool water and lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry. ✦ SHIPPING - Carefully folded, wrapped and shipped with tracking. Your estimated delivery date is shown at checkout. - US buyers: all customs duties and import fees are PREPAID. The price you see at checkout is the final price, with no surprise charges at delivery. 🧶 MADE BY A MOM, NOT A FACTORY I'm a mom in Türkiye who crochets between the moments of everyday life — school runs, dinner, laundry. A blanket like this grows slowly, a few squares at a time, through many evenings. If I wouldn't wrap my own family in it, I would never send it to yours. ───────────────────────────── Meet the rest of our handmade family: crochet baby blankets, baby mobiles, soft animal friends and more at https://aselovers.etsy.com Made with love in Türkiye 🇹🇷 · Worldwide shipping with tracking (Colors may vary slightly depending on your screen.)
