I have been away for quite awhile! We are finally settling in after our move to the country (more of a forest really), and the kids are in school again. I will try to get back into the swing of posting on this blog.

I also have ulterior motives to start posting again as a fellow Etsian has informed me of a person across the pond who is selling my free daisy pattern and blanket design. I have informed this person that it is a copyrighted pattern as well as the fact that it is just rude and insulting to those of us who share our creativity. They have also copied and are using a photo from my blog. (Again, please do not pull my images from this site! They are my own intellectual property.) Thank you to all who have asked permission to link to this site, and to those who have noted credit to tillie tulip where credit is due.

I contacted the owner at spitspotloves.com and politely asked them to take down the pattern. I have not received a response. They are referring to it as the "lazy daisy". The only thing lazy about it is the person who has stolen the free pattern and is selling it for profit. Hopefully, they will find a conscience, do what is right, and stop selling others' designs. I left word on their Instagram feed (https://instagram.com/_spitspotloves/) as well, but have since been blocked. People never cease to amaze me.

Again, this pattern is FREE. Please help keep it that way.:

    I love your posts and your amazing blog. You're the best and I love that you share with us. Thank you so much.
    I have a question. I want to try to make this gorgeous blanket for my sister. What yarn do you use and what crochet hook? And how do you crochet those squares together? ��

    1. Hi Natalie, Thanks for your note! You are too kind :) I used Caron One Pound (here in the US) It is a worsted weight yarn. I also used an I (5.5mm) crochet hook. If you go to my tutorial section, you will see how I joined - with a join-as-you-go method.

    2. Thank you so much �� I've made two squares with a Daisy, but on a blue blanket you make also squares without Daisy. My sister wants a blanket like that. And I wanna make it to her. But how many dc in the ring? And do you chain 2 and dc 2 more in the same and chain 1 and 3 dc to make that a corner? Just wanna know how you do first and second row to make it right. Typical granny square will look weird I think with the Daisy square.
      Hope you can help me with that ��
