Pop Granny Square

Texture and floral motifs are a timeless combination, so be sure to use them in your projects. Jeanette’s crochet square has both of these features and in addition, uses elements of mosaic crochet. In the photos below you can see that this free crochet pattern requires no more than two colors, but go for as rich a palette as you like.

Kinnedy Nichelle Afghan Square 

Do you need a recipe for a mind-blowing afghan? Obviously! Use a couple of blocks of the same kind in order to create a structural surface, continue adding concentric rows of stitches at the edges, or pair it with other intricate squares instead. You can use just one for decoration as well!
