Crochet Snowflake Granny Square Pattern

I love to crochet, so coming up with new and cool patterns comes second nature to me. Today, I’m going to share with you an amazing granny square pattern of a snowflake. I crocheted the snowflake in a natural white colour with a frosty blue border. The snowflake is large and takes up about 80% of the granny square. Use it as a potholder or a hot mat that will last you a lifetime. You can also make a Christmas-style blanket with snowflake granny squares, snowman, and Christmas tree granny squares. Explore also a beginner-friendly crochet snowflake that can be used as a decor element or an applique.
