This is a free crochet pattern with video tutorial showing how to crochet the Gia Ornament – a fun and easy granny square project. They’re lovely worked in a solid color or stripes. Aside from ornaments, they’d also make great gift tags, or string them up to create a fun holiday garland.

Now, I have used embroidery floss for my squares, which is 100% cotton, but you can use #10 crochet thread or a fingering weight yarn for similar results. Gauge is not essential for this project so feel free to change it up even more.

Materials:

  • 10 (15, 20, 30) Yards of Embroidery Floss
  • D3/3mm Crochet Hook
  • Soft Tape Measure
  • Tapestry Needle
  • Optional, Small Amount of 7 Mesh Plastic Canvas (10 Mesh will also work)

Material Notes:
One skein of embroidery floss is 8.75 yards. I found that one skein can work 28 clusters.

You can use #10 crochet thread or a fingering weight yarn for similar results. Because you can custom cut the plastic canvas frame or block to the desired measurements, gauge is not essential for this project so feel free to change it up even more.

I added a plastic canvas frame to my granny square because I am not a blocker, and it helps the granny square keep it’s shape and still be lightweight and flexible.

Time Spent:
Just about 30 minutes.

Gauge (Not Essential):
Two Round Granny Square = 1 5/8” in diameter

Abbreviations (US Terms):

  • SC - Single Crochet
  • DC - Double Crochet
