Granny Square
Sweater Patterns
Here’s a collection of the best free patterns for crochet granny square sweaters to inspire you to make your own.
Granny squares are fun and easy to make, but they require patience. If you are looking for a quicker project, choose a pattern that uses larger squares or uses one or just a few colours.
If you use many colours and small squares, there will be more seaming and ends to sew in.
