Magical squares for clothes, accessories and the home.
A square is a small, repeatable crochet project that is versatile and easy to take with you wherever you go. You can use them individually or you can join endless amounts of squares together to build up patterns which can give you everything from mug coasters to duvet covers. In this book, Maria Gullberg has designed different types of squares ranging from classic and easy to new and challenging that you can use for everything, including jumpers, scarves and waistcoats to rugs, cushion covers and bags: the possibilities really are endless.
Each square you encounter in this book can be joined together in as many ways as you can think of. There are pattern examples with clear instructions if you're looking for inspiration or specific designs, or you can make it up as you go along mixing patterns and choosing your own colour ways.
In this book you'll discover squares to crochet that you'll never have seen before. From the timeless granny square and brand new versions of it to the mosaic crochet square, as well as half-squares and hexagonal designs, there's plenty to ignite your imagination.
