Stunning Flowery Crochet Afghan Squares

Afghan crochet squares are one of the most popular crochet projects. It’s because they are versatile – you can make blankets out of them or leave them as decorations. They are great for using scraps of yarn from previous projects, so there is no waste.

They can be nothing like each other – different colors or even style. You can create patchwork design or a regular one – everything is up to you! Another reason for the never-ending popularity of the squares is the fact, that you can adjust them to the current trends. Lately the catchiest Afgan blocks are the ones with fresh and juicy colors – they don’t stop attracting us! Take a look at examples below and search for links to patterns under the pictures.
