Sweet Crochet Mandala Squares
We’ve all seen stunning mandala bedspreads, usually presented as crochet-a-long. They are very complicated and a lot of fun for seasoned crocheters! The best thing though, in my opinion, is the fact that you can choose to make only a part of such project – let’s say, the central square.
You can use it in many ways, for example make a cushion, square bag or just anything else you can think of! Choose the colors you want to work with and try it today. I’m sure you will learn a lot on the way, because these mandalas utilize A LOT of different stitches 😉 Take a look at examples below and search for links to free patterns under the pictures.
