Shells Aflutter 12 Inch Afghan Square

Shells Aflutter 12 Inch Afghan Square

I love creating unique afghan squares! This gorgeous Shells Aflutter 12 inch afghan square is the perfect accent to any afghan. You can make it the center of an afghan and build around it or make a bunch to join together into a larger afghan. This square is made with Vanna's Choice yarn in four colors but can be easily substituted for any other category 4 yarn in as many colors as you choose. This square is block #11 of the 2017 Moogly CAL!

New Beginnings Afghan Block | Secret Garden Add-on

"This beautiful 12" afghan block has a simple center edged with a flower petal design. Use it as a contrast square to tone down a highly textured blanket, or by itself to create an afghan that is beautiful and unique. You will need to know how to crochet post stitches, cross stitches, and shells. This block looks its best and most elegant in a solid color, but feel free to change it up and make it your own! "

Perfectly Provincial 12" Crochet Square Pattern

Perfectly Provincial 12andquot; Crochet Square Pattern

What could be more romantic than the French Provincial style? This free 12" afghan square crochet pattern is one of my most textured pieces to date--imagine flowers, vines, trellises, ornate framework on mirrors and table legs--oh my! Incorporating this square into an afghan or home decor project is guaranteed to take to the next level. Knowing how to work post stitches, clusters, shells, and popcorn stitches will make this project go much more smoothly, but the amount of color changes could still slow you down. Allow a bit of extra time to complete this project. You'll feel more relaxed and happy this way, which is the whole point of crochet!

Supernova Square

Explore the shifting, layered textures of the Supernova Square. A starburst at the center sets this crochet afghan block in motion, radiating outwards into puffs, shells, ridges and more. With such varied textures, this blanket square works equally well with one color or many! The full square is 12 inches across. If you would like a smaller and more solid square, you can do that too, by working just the center portion without the shell stitch border!
