"The Striped Hourglass Square is a great addition to the Moogly Crochet Along - or any squares-based project! Play with color and texture in this free crochet pattern on Moogly! I designed this square using Red Heart With Love, because it's the official yarn of the MooglyCAL2021. And the reason it's the official yarn is that it comes in tons of colors. But even more importantly, it's super easy to care for and family (and pet) friendly - and therefore great for gifting too! I recently designed the Striped Hourglass Area Rug, and had a lot of fun playing with the color changes to get a bold rainbow look. For the Striped Hourglass Square, I've re-worked this stitch pattern yet again - and I have even more ideas to come!"

Striped Flower Garden
The Striped Flower Garden square features a dimensional flower in the center, and then square rounds of different colors and sizes to the edge. When made in worsted weight yarn such as Red Heart With Love, the square is 12″. Due to the texture, the Striped Flower Garden square would also look lovely in one solid color. You could even make a blanket with multiple squares each made of a different color. Get creative and have fun!
