Only a few squares made it into the top 16 patterns above, but there are plenty more on AllFreeCrochetAfghanPatterns. These granny square patterns are easy and fun to make especially if you’re short on time. One benefit to making granny squares is you can make matching pillows for your afghan. Or if you just want to make a pillow you can do that too. Granny squares let you be creative and inventive. I love the Pistachio Square because there are three different ways to crochet  it. How neat is that?

  1. Victorian Lace Afghan
  2. Chinese Screen Afghan
  3. California Ranch Afghan
  4. Sun Porch Afghan
  5. Mexicana Afghan
  6. Pineapple Afghan
  7. 10 Ravishing Ripple Afghan Patterns
  8. Fans and Pansies Ripple Blanket
  9. Colorful Ripple Afghan
  10. Fuzzy Ripple Afghan

Next up – vintage patterns. There’s something to be said for a pattern that may be older than you. The fact that these patterns are still so well-liked shows how important it is to keep on crocheting. Maybe some of you remember your grandma or great grandma crocheting patterns like these. Carry on the tradition – many other crocheters already are.

I have an idea! If you crocheted any of the patterns above, or are currently crocheting one, I’d love to see pictures! Head on over to the AllFreeCrochetAfghanPatterns Facebook page and post your WIPs or finished pieces. You can serve as inspiration for others to crochet one of these popular patterns. It’s always fun to see what other crocheters are making and what color yarn they chose to use.

I wish you all a happy November! Remember to sign up for newsletters to get a first look at new and exciting patterns to crochet.
