Kurinji Square – Free Crochet Pattern for Granny Square Day

Hello, again! Today it hit me that I haven’t planned anything for Granny Square Day (August 15th)! So I decided to craft a little square that you can make with 10g of Catona or Stone Washed / River Washed. It has a little color-work too. This is a square to savor the moment. It’s a square to slow down and love the process. If you’re looking for something quick and zippy, this may not be the one. Of course, after a few, it gets faster because you’ll memorize the pattern, but it’s just not a super fast make, in my opinion. So, this one won’t be for everybody, and that’s okay. Heads up, I have another Granny Square Day surprise for you tomorrow!! It’s a big one! Social Media Sharing Hashtag #kurinjisquare / #grannysquareday2020 / #cypresstextiles Of course, if you have made any of my VVCAL squares, you can post them on Granny Square Day, August 15, and hashtag #vvcal / #grannysquareday2020 / #cypresstextiles I just wanted to exercise my design muscles on a nice …
