Thorpeness Crochet Square Pattern

This is a crochet pattern with written instructions, round by round photos and symbol charts.

This square is designed to be a central focus for an afghan / blanket surrounded by other squares which meet the standard 12 inch worsted weight definitions. As such the final stitch count is 79 stitches per side (= 39 sts x 2 squares, + 1 st for the join).

Alternatively, if made in DK weight, Thorpeness would make a generous sized cushion front cover.

Thorpeness is the second square in my Suffolk coastal towns series. Just north of Aldeburgh, it is a whimsical place, developed in the 1910’s to be a holiday destination. There is an artificial boating lake with islands and features named after Peter Pan characters, the former water tower was externally decorated and named ‘The House in the Clouds” and most homes are of a mock Tudor style.
