Delilah Afghan Square
A free version is also available.
How to crochet a beautiful, floral afghan square that’s perfect for scraps and works up quickly. Pull your favorite colors from your stash to create a field of flowers in whatever project you choose to do.
Video tutorial included.
Some ideas for this square:
- Make 1 in cotton yarn for a washcloth
- Make 1 in any fiber for a wall hanging
- Make several and sew together to create a tote bag, rug, blanket and so much more
- Experiment with different weight yarns to get different sizes for endless possibilities!

Materials:
- 51 Yards Total of Worsted Weight #4 Yarn - I used Lion Brand Pound of Love in Honey Bee (Flower Center, 6 yards), White (Petals, 6 yards), Olive (Leaves, 4 yards) and Denim (35 yards)
- H8/5mm Crochet Hook
- Tapestry Needle
Yarn Notes:
Depending on the project you’ll be working with this square, the yarn options can vary, but they’re practically endless. Feel to use your favorite worsted weight yarn, but I’ll provide some ideas for a couple projects:
For things like an afghan, scarf and shawl, acrylic yarn, like the Pound of Love I used, is a good choice. For a cozier option, go with a wool blend, like Lion Brand Wool Ease or Cascade Pacific. For a warm weather option, a cotton blend, like Berroco Modern Cotton or Lion Brand Made with Love are great choices.
For things like a tote bag, washcloth or table runner, a 100% cotton yarn, like Circulo Natural Cotton Maxcolor 4/6 or Queensland Coastal Cotton is what I would recommend. These are nice, durable options that wear and machine wash well and are also colorfast (not all cotton yarns are).
