Black And White Granny Square Blanket Throw

"This beautiful black and white granny square afghan is easy to crochet. It was made for my daughter. I made her a baby afghan many years ago. This will be the second afghan that I made for her. This blanket consists 5 different black and white designs. Making 4 of each square. Have fun laying them out to create a unique look. Add a double crochet border to each granny square, then join the squares. Two rounds of double crochet for a border to finish off the entire look."
