A Collection of Granny Square and Motif Crochet Designs You’ll Absolutely Love
These beautiful granny square and motif crochet designs are just what you’re looking for. Pick your favorite and get started!
If you’ve been around here for even a minute, you know I have a soft spot for granny squares. They’re almost always my first pick when I’m starting a new crochet project — there’s just something so satisfying about building beauty one small piece at a time.
Granny squares (and their motif cousins) are like the building blocks of crochet. With just a simple shape, you can create an incredible variety of projects, from cozy wearables to charming home décor. Their versatility is part of the magic — the same basic idea can turn into something completely different depending on your colors, layout, and finishing touches.
This collection of granny square and motif designs, with a few granny stitch inspired projects included, is full of that creative possibility. Whether you’re in the mood to make something to wear or something to brighten your home, there’s a project here waiting to jump on your hook.
Take a look — I have a feeling you’ll find at least one that makes you think, “Yep, I need to make that.”
