More Crochet Squares

Being sick seriously curtails what you do around the house and now that I am starting to feel better I want to share the one thing I managed to get done before I was sick and one or two squares afterward. Some of my projects will be shared after Christmas as I want to show the finished projects on their recipients. I have finished five more squares since my last posting. I have altered some slightly from their patterns, but both their original and the alterations are pretty and fun to make.


The Shining Star Square was slightly difficult and reminded me to read and reread my patterns several times before attempting them, but it turned out wonderfully. This square is also only designed to be a 10 inch square so I added to the edges until I reached the 12 inches I desired. The Wheel Lattice square was extremely easy to complete not to mention fast.


This pattern was also easy to complete. I found this pattern on Ravelry and you can see many completed projects and how you can change your colors to create a different effect within the same pattern.



This is another pattern I found on Ravelry. This worked up in around a hour with me taking my sweet time. It is made mostly of chains and single crochets, making this a very beginner friendly square.


This square was fun allowing me to use a few back post stitches, which allow for more dimension and dare I say frilliness to this square. I also found this pattern on Ravelry. This pattern is worked partially like a granny square. Like I stated above I altered the pattern slightly, because I loved the pattern stitch so much.


If you missed my last post I am making a 12 inch block afghan for my husband and myself and I am working up to 56 squares to complete the project my total count at this point is 8 squares.
