The Arboretum Square is a fun colorful twelve inch Afghan square. It's perfect for blankets, car seat covers, bags, and wall hangings. It can be made in one color or up to sixteen colors. It looks just as good in Ombre colors as it would in Rainbow colors. It goes perfectly with the twelve inch Botanical Garden Square, but could also be paired with one of the five 6 inch afghan squares I also have on my blog.

Botanical Pot Holder / Hot Pad
I found a really pretty pattern on *Yarnspirations the other day called Botanical Crochet Dishcloththat I thought would be perfect as a fall hot pad. I think these are always nice hostess gifts to bring along with me to dinners or get together with friends or family so I'm always making a few in my spare time.
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.
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!
C2c Enamored Heart Afghan Square
"This afghan square can be used for a variety of projects including throw pillows, blankets, shawls, wall hangings and so much more! I used 20 yards of Red Heart Super Saver in Buff (6 Yards) and Soft White (14 Yards) for mine because I love Super Saver for home products as it's durable and washes well. I had mine done in about an hour and half, but it really flew by. While the overall gauge isn't important, it is important that the gauge for both yarns that you use are the same. I had to use an H8/5mm for my Soft White, and I9/5.5mm for my Buff."
Five Point Motif
Caron's Simply Soft is used to put this beautiful motif together. A free crochet pattern like this one is always good to have around. A motif can be used for anything. Use it as a hotpad or turn it into an afghan.
