There are three types of circle in the squares for the Action Packed Afghan Design. This is the basic design of a just a regular circle that is surrounded by rounds that convert it to a square. It’s then encased in a frame.

By clicking the GET PATTERN button, you can access my own pattern for the basic square. 7 of the 9 squares in my design are the basic design but changed colour in strategic spots for colour play.

The squares are 18″ x 18″. They are large and a baby size blanket would be only 9 squares in a 3 x 3 square configuration. For me, they take about 2 hours to crochet from start to finish for each square.

Using Caron One Pound Yarn, you can create these bold basic squares and fill them in with your own improvised patterns to customize.

Eight of the nine square designs use this pattern.
