Boxing the finished Square -Next Step - Box Frame Rounds
Once the base of the square is complete, the next step for each square is to add the next design element of the pattern: the boxed frame.
The boxed frame is worked around each individual square and serves two purposes:
It increases the overall size of each square
It creates a distinct framed look, giving every square a bold, structured finish
Individual square boxing instructions are provided on the main Boxed Flower Squares Blanket pattern page.
Joining the Squares
After completing the boxed frame on all squares:
1. Squares are first joined into long vertical or horizontal strips
2. Once the strips are complete, an additional design element is worked to join these strips together into the full blanket layout
3. After all strips are joined, the blanket can be extended if desired, followed by a thick framed outer border to finish the design
Be sure to follow the Joining Notes and Border Instructions listed on the main pattern page for correct construction and stitch placement.
Final Steps
Weave in all remaining ends securely
Block squares and/or the completed blanket as needed to ensure even sizing and straight edges
