French Braid Blanket

"The French Braid Blanket is perfect for your next project. It looks complicated, but really it is so easy and you can just zen out with the linen stitch crochet. It looks like Tunisian Crochet, but it isn't! You will have a blast with this blanket pattern, using the very clear instructions and videos. There are 2 versions of this blanket, the Mondo Square version and the Mini Square version. You can pick which one you want to make for your blanket! Both instructions are included below. Also, I have made each square, Mondo and Mini, in 3 different weight yarns to showcase how you can resize the blanket just by changing yarn weight."
