Free Blocks and Squares Crochet Patterns

Build your next project with crochet blocks!

Creating crochet blocks and squares can be great fun and open up a whole new world of possibilities. Make as many as you want and join them however you want – let these elements be a starting point for your imagination!

Squares, hexagons, triangles…

Use these basic shapes to create your own designs, or follow the instructions closely. In our collection, you will find both individual free patterns for squares and blocks, as well as free patterns for blankets and pillows built with them.

Of course, you can also use the squares or hexagons individually, for example as coasters. If you make a bunch and join them with a string, you can end up with a lovely handmade bunting. A single crochet square can also be a great starting point for a blanket worked in the round.

Easily adjustable

Building crochet blankets with crochet squares or afghan blocks makes it very easy to adjust in size. Measure one square and multiply it to achieve the size and shape you want. This type of design is also great for planning out color palettes because you can lay the blocks on the floor and arrange them as you wish.

Simple or complex – You choose!

Crochet afghan blocks, squares, or hexagons can be as simple or as complex as you want. These crochet patterns feature various crochet techniques, such as mosaic crochet, filet crochet, tapestry crochet, and more. You will also find simple designs worked in the round, with basic stitches only. Many of the crochet blocks use crochet flower designs or floral ornaments.

Here you’ll find hundreds of patterns for all skill levels, so choose something for yourself!
