Could this pattern be continued to make a blanket?

I did a double bed sized one. I kept going until it fit the top of the bed. I had to add rows at the top and bottom. Then crocheted along the sides using single crochet. Very warm and colorful
Thank you for the time spent on getting the instructions and the posting of the dish cloth. I am new at crocheting and trying to set up a manual for me on crochet products. Again, thank you and you did all this for free.
Many thanks,
Marlene
Yes, it can be used as a granny square, I have lots of crochet stitches listed on the blog, so have fun
