Pattern Instructions

Written Instructions

The delight of a flower granny square or even a normal granny square, is that they can be worked into so many bigger projects, like blankets, tote bags, pillow cases, by simply joining them is unique ways.

I love making squares and some example pattern where I use flower squares are the African Flowers Patchwork Blanket where I have created some fun truly South African Flower squares, and combined them into a afghan.

Another example of using flower granny squared are in this fun little tote bag I call Squared Flowers Tote.

This flower crochet square is worked in the rounds.

Written instructions is based on changing the color of the yarn for every row.

If you choose to use one color simple ch 1, after last slip stitch of each row and start new row with indicated chains, followed by the written instructions for that row.
