Hocus Pocus Spring Square

I wanted to create a Spring Bloom Square that gives you the impression of flowers, the rich texture and complexity of spring and that was not crocheted as a traditional square. I’m so pleased to introduce the Hocus Crocus Spring Square! I hope that the yellow stamens peeking out from the purple flowers (on the multi-colored square) inspire you to deeply seek out the beauty of spring. I hope that the vibrant alfalfa green of the leaves that surrounds each crocus reminds you that spring is ever-returning, a beautiful promise of new life and beauty breaking through the rain sodden dirt (it’s always rain sodden here in Oregon!). I hope that you enjoy the process of crocheting your squares! All my best, Amber

Use 1 color or use all 5 to create this texture-filled square inspired by the beautiful crocuses that abound in spring.
