Crochet Squares

You can create this diamond square using filet crochet.

Finished Size: My project sample measures 6 1/2 inches by 6 inches. If you crochet this pattern, yours is likely to vary depending on the materials you use. I used an unidentified crochet thread to make my project sample.

If you'd like to make large crocheted squares, why not give this pattern a try? Sandi Marshall designed this square using an interesting variation of the offset shell stitch.

This is such an intriguing pattern! You might not fully appreciate it until you see the two-color version, which resembles crocheted op-art.

When you put a bunch of these squares together, even the single-color version is lively; it seems to dance to a visual rhythm all its own.

Sandi Marshall discovered this lovely pattern in a vintage crochet book. She reworked it and re-wrote the instructions to make them clearer for contemporary crocheters, and published the pattern here for you to use.   

Pretty autumn leaves embellish this afghan square, and a cute pumpkin applique is the focal point. This pattern design is by Sandi Marshall.
