Dizzy 12 Inch Square

July 24, 2015 By Corina 3 Comments

Dizzy - 12 inch crochet square - free crochet pattern by Stitch11

Are you looking for a fun crochet project that’s full of color? This Dizzy 12-inch crochet square is a great option for you! 

Grab all your leftover bits of medium-weight yarn because you can use all of them on this project! I used 9 colors in my square but you can use as many or as few as you like for yours. 

Make a bunch of these to use up all your scraps in the most colorful crochet blanket ever, or make a wall hanging, a bag, or anything else you would like. The main thing is to have fun!

Before we get to the post, if you love crocheting squares, you may be interested in the Crochet Anything With Hexagons video class.
