The pattern begins with a basic square shape, worked in a simple single crochet stitch. This not only makes it easy for beginners to follow along, but it also creates a sturdy and durable foundation for the blanket. The next step is to add the iconic features of Ned Flanders – his mustache and glasses. These details are created by working single crochet stitches in different colors, adding a fun and playful touch to the design.
As you continue to work through the pattern, you will see the image of Ned Flanders come to life. With each stitch, you can imagine his friendly smile and warm personality shining through. And as you complete the square, you will feel a sense of accomplishment and joy, knowing that you are creating a unique and special piece to honor one of your favorite characters. The end result is a beautiful and cozy blanket that not only serves as a functional piece but also holds sentimental value for fans of The Simpsons and Ned Flanders in particular.
The simplicity of the single crochet stitch used in this pattern allows for endless possibilities. You can create a blanket in any size, from a small throw to a large bedspread, by simply adjusting the number of squares and rows. You can also play with different color background combinations to make each blanket truly unique, adding your own personal touch to the design.
In a world where we are constantly bombarded with technology and fast-paced living, taking the time to create something by hand can be a therapeutic and rewarding experience. And with the Ned Flanders Crochet blanket square pattern, you not only get to express your creativity, but also pay tribute to a beloved character who has brought laughter and joy to so many.

Crochet Techniques to Know
Here are the basic crochet stitches that may be used in this project.
Slip Stitch (sl st): To make a slip stitch, insert the hook into the stitch, yarn over, and pull through both the stitch and the loop on the hook.
Single Crochet (sc): To make a single crochet, insert the hook into the stitch, yarn over, and pull up a loop (2 loops on the hook). Yarn over again and pull through both loops to complete the stitch.
Half Double Crochet (hdc): This stitch is taller than a single crochet. To make an hdc, yarn over, insert the hook into the stitch, yarn over, and pull up a loop (3 loops on hook). Yarn over again and pull through all 3 loops to complete the stitch.
Working in the Back Loops (blo): Normally, we work through both top loops of a stitch. But in this project, we’ll work in the back loops only to create a ribbed texture. To do this, insert the hook under the back loop only. Then, complete the stitch as usual.
