hi, I love the look of this square! I am
thinking that if I use other colors it might
be suited for a spring afghan, I just have
one question, how does it look from the back?
Is it very different? I don't really like to
crochet afghans that look good only on one
side. thank you!
I've seen it done in other colors in one of
my crochet books and to me it still looks
like a snowflake . lol. I prefer it with red,
but that just my opinion. :) It's worked all
on the right side "no turning" so
it looks just like any other granny square,
it has a definite front and back.
I really like this square. Most of the time
when I see snowflakes, they are hexagons.
Did you find the pattern online, or is it in
a book? If you're sharing, my email is
windsweptpetite@gmail.com
I got the pattern from a book. American
School of Needlework 101 Crochet Squares by
Jean Leinhauser. But you can find the patternHERE for free (only they made it into a
potholder)
The link to this pattern no longer works...
would anyone out there be willing to share
this pattern with me (email is
sandytown3@cox.net)? I want to make this for
next Christmas! Thank you so much.

Quite refreshing now that it's getting hot! It's so nostalgic. I miss fall/winter already :(

so pretty, i agree with greendiana2002 - it would also look great in pastels or even contrasting brights.

Oh this is beautiful. It would look great with a dark blue as well. Nice and frosty for a winter afghan.

I did a similar square some time back, but the "snowflakes" are on hexagons. I like this one much better! ....and, I LOVE it on red!!
