This was a super-quick piece, worked in the sunshine to inspire this bright palette!

My Four Square pattern is perfect for stash-busting or for several colors of your choosing. I love when I get a custom request for this design, as it gives me a chance to use some remnants and clear out some yarn inventory in a beautiful way!

  1. Amazing design but I do have a question regarding this. Did you turn your rows? When II look at some of these big granny squares the beginning squares are lop-sided. I have always turned mine & thi has never happened to me.

    1. Yes, I always flip my work on grannies to fight that wonky center, and because I like the ridges that form. I have a free pattern called “The Perfect Granny Square” that you can reference if you like! 🙂
