3-2-1 Crochet Blanket

This was meant to be a ripple blanket but it transformed into granny square by some sort of magic!

It's a bit of random crochet that has no purpose...so I might tuck it away until it has a home!

To create this 'masterpiece' all you need to do is follow this simple pattern:

Pick three colours and make each granny square up with:

3 rounds of the first colour

2 rounds of the second colour

1 round of the final colour

Create as many squares as you like, in different combos...join them together and add a border. Here I have used two of the colours and done a round each of the completed blanket!

Then TA DA your random crochet blanket is complete!

CASTLE: A writer and his muse solving crime, just like us

BECKETT: Okay, Castle, but it's accompany and observe, not participate and annoy. Got it?
CASTLE: Participate and annoy is a lot more fun, but alright

 CASTLE: What's the strangest pet you've ever had?
BECKETT: You.

 BECKETT: I wish that I had someone who could be there for me and I could be there for him and we could do it together.

 CASTLE: Don't leave me, please. Stay with me. Ok. Kate, I love you. I Love you Kate.

CASTLE: I really am ruggedly handsome, aren't I?  

BECKETT: How the hell could you do this? 
CASTLE: Because I love you. But you already know that, don't you? You've known for about a year now.

BECKETT: Are you kidding me, you’re actually bringing this up right now? After you told me that you just betrayed me?
