Puffy Granny Square

Design by Miroslava Mihalkova from Exquisite Crochet UK.

The Puffy Granny Square is a great project for those who would like to dip their toes in the world of crochet and granny squares. Adding puff stitches creates slightly textured pattern that compliments double crochet stitches forming granny clusters. The repetitive pattern allows for sufficient practise of the technique creating a beautiful texture. You can make the motif into a placemat, coaster, or a blanket!
