There will be 12 amazing square patterns for you as well as an end of CAL Giveaway that you can find here. My pattern contribution is an easy square but I am absolutely in love with it. The pattern allows you to keep growing the square into something larger! Scroll down to check out the FREE crochet pattern for my Limitless Afghan Square. The pattern is available in a 12 inch size with the option to stop at 6 inches. I hope you enjoy it! Happy Crocheting!
