Apparently the new year brought lots of new ideas because I have several WIPs but unfortunately I can’t seem to stay on one project for too long. I find myself fiddling around with multiple design ideas. This little V-Stitch Flower Granny Square was born from one of my brainstorming sessions! I used a rainbow of colors and just love how fun and bright they all look together! I think I might make a scarf even though a blanket would be beautiful as well… maybe even a pillow!
Materials:
– Size H Crochet Hook
– Worsted Weight Yarn. I used a rainbow of colors from Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice.
– Tapestry needle
Abbreviations:
Magic Ring Tutorial
V-Stitch = DC + Chain 1 + DC all in same stitch

V stitch Granny Square:
With color 1:
Magic ring, Chain 1 and make 8 SC in ring, join to first SC.
Round 2: Chain 4 + DC in first stitch (this counts as your first v-stitch), v-stitch (DC + chain + DC) in each remaining stitch around, join to 3rd chain.
With color 2:
Round 3: Working in the v-stitches from previous row, chain 4 + dc in first v-stitch space, chain 1,* v-stitch + chain 1 + v stitch in next (this is your corner), chain 1, v-stitch, chain 1, repeat from * around, join to 3rd chain.
With border color:
Round 4: Chain 3 + DC in first v-stitch space (chain 3 counts as your first DC), DC in next chain space, 2 DC in next v-stitch space, 2 DC + chain 2 + 2 DC in corner, Continue by making 2 DC in each v-stitch, DC in each chain space, 2 DC + chain 2 + 2 DC in each corner, join to first DC. Fasten off and weave in ends.
Update 1-9-16
I made a scarf! I Crocheted 3 rows of SC in white on either end of each square. Then I sewed them together with a tapestry needle. When they were all sewn together I made a round of SC stitches around the entire edge of the scarf.

Oh, I love how these look! Since they’re not too big, I’m thinking they would make great “temperature” squares to end up with a big blanket at the end of the year! Bookmarking for next year! ;o)
I like these! I’ve toyed with an openwork granny square idea before and this version is really effective – will give it a go. 🙂
Love them!!!
Very cute! What is the finished size for the square? Thanks!!
Sarah,
Thank You so much for sharing your talent! The V stitch Flower Granny Square is the perfect take along WIP.
They look beautiful! I like it very much!
I tried the videogame Watch Dogs and goes chupi me I caught this site
How would you go about joining the squares together ?
Can you continue R 3 to the size square you want and then finish with R 4? I was thinking of making this into a blanket but only using one square.
Thanks!
Oh, I just adore how these appear! Due to the fact that they are not overly large, I believe they would be perfect for making “temperature” squares in order to end up with a large blanket at the end of the year! Making a note for the following year!
I would want to express my gratitude to you for penning such an engaging article on the subject. This has given me a lot to think about, and I am looking forward to reading more.
