Materials:
- 4-ply worsted weight acrylic yarn (I used RHSS)
- I hook
Notes:
- I crochet tight so you may need to adjust the size of your crochet hook
- you can make this granny any size that you would like - just crochet however many granny stitch rounds you would like and then add Rnd 4 and the ruffle rnd.
Directions:
Rnd 1: Ch 4, 2 dc in 4th ch from hook. (Ch 2, 3 dc in same ch) 3 times. Ch 2, join with a sl st to top of beginning ch 3.
Rnd 2: Sl st in next 2 dc, sl st in corner space. (Ch 3, 2 dc, ch 2, 3 dc) in same sp. *Ch 1, (3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc) in next corner sp. Repeat from * 3 times. Ch 1, join as before.
Rnd 3: Sl st in next 2 dc, sl st in corner sp. (Ch 3, 2 dc, ch 2, 3 dc) in same sp. *Ch 1, 3 dc in ch 1 sp, ch 1, (3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc) in next corner sp. Repeat from * 2 more times. Ch 1, 3 dc in ch 1 sp, ch 1, join as before.
Rnd 4: Ch 1, sc in same st. Sc in each dc and ch 1 sp around with 3 sc in each corner sp. Join with a sl st to front loop only of 1st sc.
Ruffle Rnd: (Work this rnd in front loops only) Ch 3, 2 dc in same st, 3 dc in each sc around. Join with a sl st to top of beginning ch 3.
Sl st or sew squares together from the back in the free back loops.
~~this square would work with no-ruffle squares nicely - just place them in a checkerboard pattern. i.e. ruffle square, plain square, ruffle square, plain square - and then switch the order of the squares for the next row.

ReplyDeleteThanks Sandy. All you have to do is either sew or sl st the squares together from the back in the free back loops. :)
Deletethanks for the info
DeleteThis is the most different granny square I have ever seen. don't know how to do a lot in crocheting, but I love this
ReplyDeleteThank you for this square. If I can work it out I will include it in the baby rugs I make for friends grandchildren.
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute!!!! Ruffles are in style. Right now I am making blankets for Project Linus, some little girl will love to get this blanket. I think I had better hide these blankets from the girls in my family. This will make a great birthdays, Mother's, or just because gifts I won't be able to make the require numbers for the girls for
ReplyDeleteChristmas. Thank you for posting. Gotta get more yarn
making this for a niece's baby soon to be born to go with the blanket and booties, hat - great to hold little gadgets or set special things in for this baby soon to be!! so clever and yet so simple! wish i would think of such cute things!!
ReplyDeleteCould someone please explain to me how to work in "free back loops?" I would appreciate anyone's help. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteHi there. When you work the ruffle round in the front loops of Rnd 4 (the sc round), the back loops of Rnd 4 are left free (unworked) - these are the back loops that will be used to connect the squares. You can either whipstitch or slip stitch the squares together. :)
DeleteThank you ladies. :)
ReplyDeleteThis pattern really caught my eye and I copied it. This looks similar to a rag quilt but much nicer. I do quilting but not rag quilts and I love crochet. This is a beauty indeed. Thank you so much for posting this pattern - a real beauty indeed.
ReplyDeleteThank you Joy Ann. :)
DeleteBeautiful. I would love to see the whole afghan put together with these ruffle squares.

ReplyDeleteHello. In 1980 I got a similar pattern from my husband's Aunty Madge. I have made a few items using this ruffle pattern. She could crochet the most beautiful items. I love to do crochet work. Thank you for these lovely patterns and ideas.
