After completing my last free crochet pattern, the Stash Bustin' Crochet Flower in a Square, I decided I would make a few of these adorable flowers as squares. This Dahlia is based off of a personal favorite crochet pattern of mine, Autumn Flower. Like the previous crochet Square, this one also measures around 4.5 inches and with the same amount of stitches. Happy Hookin'!

Beautiful. You wouldn’t happen to have a 9×9 square working on blankets for charity’s. Thanks
Hi Michelle! No I am sorry I only have squares that measure around 4.5 inches. Good luck finding some though! maybe next time I go on a square kick I will make them larger!
I downloaded the pdf but i cant figure out how to get the full instructions! HELP!
I do not have pdf option unless you are talking about the clean print located at the bottom of the pattern?
Is there a collection of these? The 2 I found are very pretty. Thanks
