Runway Square Free Crochet Pattern – FATW5 CAL, Week 19

Hello, beautiful crafter! Remember when I released the Equinox Square as part of the Friends Around the World CAL? Well I have another square in the CAL, and it releases today! Meet the Runway Square.

My design, Runway Square, is being featured on Week 19 of the fifth annual Friends Around the World CAL, hosted in the CAL – Crochet A Long Facebook group. And PS the CAL calendar and CALs A to Z pages on their website are so helpful and amazing. Check out the CAL – Crochet A Long website for more great makes!

Here’s the CAL Crochet A Long website blog post!

Runway Square

The Runway Square is perfect for when you need a lacy motif that is not too delicate. There is a lot of integrity in the square, and yet it retains that open look. To create something engaging and still simple, I have kept the more complex portions at the center of the square, and the outer rounds can be worked while watching your favorite show.

Here is Runway with her sister Equinox – I enjoyed designing these FATW5 squares so much!

Check them out in full color!
