Offset Saloniki Square

The Tunisian crochet Offset Saloniki Square is a very soft and warm afghan block with a ribbed texture and a very solid but squishy fabric.

While this Tunisian blanket square is designed to be 12” (30 cm) in size, you can easily customize it to the dimensions you need for your stitch sampler blanket or scrap blanket project.

The pattern comes with detailed, step-by-step photos and a link to a video tutorial on how to crochet the Saloniki stitch.

This square is perfect for blankets, pillowcases, wall hangings, and any other project with granny squares.
