It took me a long time to settle on the final look of my square, but I am very pleased with it, and I hope you love it, too! Since I am a left handed designer, I have the unique insight that a lot of right handers just don't think of, but I have included visual assistance for both left and right handed crocheters in my pattern.

English Garden Afghan Square
The English Garden Afghan Square is a crochet granny square that features rows of unique stitches and bright, vivid colors. This crochet square would make a perfect accent square in a crochet granny square afghan, and would look great in any color.
From the Designer: "This square is gorgeous! It has a decidedly geometrically organized look, like a formal english garden and the color combinations just speak of the blooms in a garden. Of course you can make it in as many or few colors as you like since the square also has nice texture. Pair it with simple solid squares for a truly elegant throw.
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!
