Full Pattern: Summer Marigold Granny Square

May 27, 2021 by Marie Segares

I’m Marie Segares from Underground Crafter and it’s no secret that I love granny squares.

May and June are filled with graduations and family activities, and I love to bring portable crochet projects along with me. Individual granny squares are great because I can fit all the supplies right in my purse. Today, I’m sharing a granny square pattern that is ideal for using up small bits of yarn left over from other projects. Although my sample uses 3 different colors, you can use as many as 6 for your version!
