This splendid little crochet granny square is a perfect pattern to use in your next quilt or granny square afghan project!
From the blogger:"Here's another great new 6" granny square design! I just love granny squares and I knew I needed to make a few of my own. The Mingle Square measures 6" when using an H hook. This square would be great for shawls or lacy afghans! It's a simple, yet fun square; the dcs mingle nicely with clusters! This pattern calls for worsted weight yarn in any fiber of your choice! However, this could be worked up in any weight to change the finished measurement."

Victorian Romance Square
Practice the popcorn stitch with this quick crochet granny square pattern!
From the blogger:"During my square designing kick, I first made the Native Sun Square, which had great texture. It was followed by the Mingle Square and the Primrose Square, which are equally as beautiful, but lacking the textures. So, I knew I had to make another that just 'popped.' The design of this 6-inch square reminds me of Victorian-era decor. Plus, the pop stitches look like hearts! This square would be great for many projects, but I definitely like it for an afghan."
Cabin on the Beach Afghan Square
"This easy crochet afghan pattern pays homage to the traditional Log Cabin quilt squares with a beachy crochet version! You can make this pattern into afghan blocks for a fun pieced afghan, or simply continue on for a fun continuous blanket pattern. This makes an excellent crochet stash buster- as you'll use just about 100 yards of each color for the 12" crochet afghan square blocks. Make it into a true scrap blanket, or use the colors of your choice for a cohesive look."
Cabled Blooms 12" Afghan Square
My very first afghan square design! I needed to design a 12" afghan square for a collaboration with another designer, but for the life of me I couldn't come up with a design. Then it hit me! Cables, I need to design a cabled afghan square to stay true to myself. That's when the Cabled Blooms afghan square was born. I love the solid version, but admit that the multi-colored version is great as well. The design includes a couple plains rounds of single crochet at the end that you can omit if you'd like.
Ocean Granny Square Afghan
The Ocean Granny Square Afghan is made by crocheting solid granny squares in 3 different shades of blue and white. The following appliques are made: octopus, jelly fish, puffer fish, star fish, shark, dolphin, sea turtle, sea horse, sting ray, coral, tropical fish, clown fish, sea shell, whale, and crab. The appliques are sewn onto the surface of half of the granny squares and arranged in a checkered pattern. The afghan measures 30" x 36" making a baby sized blanket. However, the afghan may be made larger by making more squares.
Crochet Snowman Granny Squares Blanket
A couple of years ago I made the Snowman Granny Square. And updated the pattern this year (2016) with my newest blanket pattern I made using these squares together. These smiling snowy faces can stay looking at each other in this Christmas all the time! Attaching these Snowman Granny Squares together, you can make any size blanket or afghan. It means this is a free size pattern. And also Snowman Granny Square Blanket can be worked with your favorite yarn weight. I used sport weight and made 20 squares. These all squares I joined with Join As You Go (JAYGo) method.
