Community Book Blanket

Crochet a granny square inspired by a book you read in 2025 and we'll turn it into a beautiful blanket!

Here's how to participate:

• Create a 5-round (5-6 inch) granny square using 4-5 weight yarn and a 4-6 mm hook. Multiple submissions welcome!
   
• Snap a shot of your square (and the book!) and email it to kweiland@hedbergpubliclibrary.org or post it on social media. Don't forget to tag HPL! 
   
• Fill out the Community Book Blanket form* and bring your square(s) to the library. Don't forget to tell us what book(s) inspired you!
  
  *Download PDF of the form here OR grab one when you bring us your square.
