A spiral square looks like it needs careful planning to keep the color sequence straight, but the opposite is true. Worked in one continuous spiral rather than joined rounds, this granny square just keeps rotating through three colors, Burnished Gold, Purple Hyacinth, Cedar Green, in the same order every time. No fastening off, no color-change jog to hide, no seam to match up. The visual complexity is doing all the work while your hands do the easy part.

Since the spiral is continuous and never resets at a seam, you don’t need to be concerned about a color jog.
