When I first learned how to crochet, I fell in love with the granny square. I tend to gravitate more toward quick turn projects, and granny squares can be completed quickly and then pieced together as a project later. Voila… instant gratification.
There are many different versions of granny square patterns available on the web, so I put together some of my favorite ones that were free. Some of them aren’t exactly squares, but they would still make a cool afghan so I included them.
I hope you enjoy! Please come back and let me know which ones you decided to try out!
Have a granny square pattern on your blog? Send me an email with it and I may just add it to my collection!
Hi there. This is a very nice collection – thanks for including some of my squares. 🙂
Thanks for stopping by! I love crochet and had a blast putting it together. Thanks for the nice comments!
Thank you for the site, wonderful! This is something what I was hoping to find. I will definitely making 2 for my granddaughters.
Thank you again!

I would appreciate it so much.. thank you Carolyn
Check Ravelry, I believe I saw it there just a few days ago. It has Star add part of the name. It’s crocheted but it’s also a quilt with not squares but rhombus-shaped pieces. I hope I’m referencing the same piece you are! Good luck!
This is just what I was looking for you rock! Thanks
Thanks so much for sharing this collection of granny squares I plan on making a blanket with several of them.
This is awesome just what I was looking for. Thanks
Thank you for sharing your granny squares with us. It saves time so we don’t have to look them. It’s a nice collection and I plan on using several to make a blanket.
You are welcome! That is exactly why I put together this post, so I would have everything in one place and wouldn’t have to look all over the web the next time I was trying to find ideas for a pattern. 🙂
I am looking for a pattern for a baby boys hat from granny squares to match a blanket. Any help appreciated !
I really appreciate that you have so many square patterns, but I am looking for something specific and would really appreciate if you could help me. Many years ago, Simplicity had a pattern for granny squares. One of the patterns was for baby booties made with granny squares. If you have it or know how I might get it, I would love to have it. Thanks for what ever you can do for me…

There is a cute little one-square granny on pinterest but no pattern available. Bet you could figure out the pattern and post it so those of us who can’t look at a pattern and figure it out could actually make the item…..am I right? it is labeled the cutest way ever to end you left-over yarn : the One-Round Granny crochet blanket! pined by Disou Crochet, Diane Wright, Cindy Walker, and others have repined it. I have loads of scrap and this would be great if I knew how to connect the 1-squares together.
I too have been trying to find the pattern for this One-square granny blanket. I have looked all over and have had no luck…help me please.
I was wondering if anyone has seen a crochet afghan pattern that is a granny square with a gardenia in the center. The gardenia has several petals that are raised up off the granny square. I made this afghan app. 15 yrs ago when I learned to crochet and lost the pattern. Hope someone can help me. Thanks
there is a teddy bear granny square blanket on pinerest with no pattern or I have found it in Spanish. I don’t speak or understand Spanish, can you please help me with a pattern. My Daughter-n-law wants me to make a blanket for my Grandson. ty
Does this happen to be the one? http://www.facilisimo.com/riccoboni/blog/decoracion/general/manta-a-crochet_750083.html
If so, if you click on the image, and click “next” to go through the pictures there is a pattern drawn out on the second image that you may be able to print and figure out. It appears that you start with a magic circle, do single crochets around, and then switch to doubles. Since I’m not the owner of the pattern, I can’t legally publish someone’s pattern without their permission even if I did figure it out for my own personal use, but I think that you should be able to figure it out better if you look at the diagram that they have provided. Thanks!
Diagram is too small for these old eyes!!!!!!!!!! Been searching for an English version of directions myself
I just found your site and am so excited. I haven’t done squares in a looong time. I love so many of yours. The palm tree is so cool. Any way tou can do a flamingo to go with it?
Thanks for stopping by. I’m not sure about the flamingo design. You might try to google and see if you can find a motif pattern or try to look on ravelry.com also.
check out Repeat Crafter Me, she’s got owl granny squares and pirate granny squares. There’s also a hello kitty granny square out there on a scarf pattern…
I just LOVE grannysquares! Thank you so much.
yay, squares…. I might do one of each to make a patchwork afghan. Especially since me and my housemates have just decided to do squares of an evening so we can have some lapghans 😀 Thank you so much!
It is so beatful i’m a leaner but injoy
I love this website. But I’m looking for a baby bootie pattern using 5 or 6 granny squares. I have no $$ for the books. I just need. The hook size and finish bootie size for newborn.

floral granny squares for some time

ThankhshoOoOoOo For All Awesom Patrns…
Thanks for putting up such a lovely array of G.Squares! It’s exactly what I was looking for to choose “the square” I would use as a foundation for a whole afghan. So it had to be the right square! and I found it here, in your collection. Blessings, Kit.
I want to thank you for this website, as I found exactly what I was looking for in a heart granny square motif. I was able to print it out and was so thankful for that as well. I will look over the rest of the motifs in the future as I have saved them to my favs site.
Love all granny squares and this is a good group. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for sharing all your granny square pictures and patterns. I am having so much picking and choosing which ones I want to put in an afghan. I’m using several different ones and using an off white yarn to make it look sort of, rustic, I think is the word I should use. You are so talented and it makes it so nice when crocheters like you share your talent.
Thanks again and have a great day!
Thank you. Just love that pineapple square.
Every crocheter loves grannies:) They are so loveable and versatile! Thanks for sharing them and your patterns:)
This post claims 100 free patterns, however, when I clicked on ‘love a daisy’ pattern I was taken to the website that charges for a membership to gain access to the patterns. Thanks for the other patterns. 🙂
This is great. I’m teaching myself crochet and will definitely have a go at some of them. Thank you
Wow, this is a brilliant collection. I could lose a LOT of hours playing with these patterns. 🙂
How can I download these granny square patterns?
Thanks
I love this page. I create and assemble patchwork blankets for the local children with medical issues, and your site has allowed me to include so much variety. It would be awesome if the completed size was on the squares, it would make searching so much easier. Thank you again!
I LOVE your site! I love how simple it is to select a pattern, click, and crochet.
I do appreciate how difficult and time consuming sites like these can be to make, and I thank you so much for your time!!!
I love all these squares. I used to have a book of them from Annies Attic, but I have to download it again to see them.
I noticed that the granny square on the fifth row third from the left has a bad link to the pattern. I have been looking everywhere for that pattern. If it is easly accessible, can you please pint me in the direction of that pattern?
Thank you!
I fixed the link to go to the pattern. Sorry for the delay on that! Happy crocheting!
I love them all!!! Thank you for sharing!!!!
Thank you!!
Were can i get a ebook of all these pretty grannies.
They look good, but is there someplace I can get directions for them, or do I have to search for each one. I did not see any links to find them
If you click on each image you will be taken to the link. Thanks for visiting!
