Our 8″ Spring Granny Square Crochet Pattern Is Part Of The In Bloom CAL. All Squares Can Be Combined To Create A Beautiful Spring Afghan Blanket.
Happy Saturday, friends. We are delighted to share our Spring Granny Square Crochet pattern. We’re participating in the In Bloom Crochet-along! Twenty-two designers have come together to design squares that can be combined into one beautiful spring afghan. Welcome to Square 3 – we hope you enjoy our Spring Granny Square Crochet Pattern.
From April 1st until April 30th each designer will present an 8×8 inch square representing the Spring season. All these squares can be combined together to create a personalized blanket. You can use all of them, or a combination of your favorites to create an amazing heirloom.
This pattern uses Mighty Stitch yarn which was generously donated by WeCrochet to each of the designers in the In Bloom Crochet-along.
We hope you enjoy making your very own In Bloom blanket! We can’t wait to see your creativity. When you complete one, please post it in our Facebook group or tag us on Instagram #3amgracedesigns. We love seeing your work!
