A classic granny square afghan pattern almost lost, but found again!
Yes, this beautiful, colorful afghan is not a vintage “style,” this is the real deal. This pattern is long out of print and dates back to 1951!
Thankfully Free Vintage Crochet has rescued this long lost pattern which was published by American Thread Company in a booklet back in that long-ago year. You’ll find the complete written pattern for this stunning afghan is now online and free!
Such beautiful colors…just think of how wonderful this afghan will look in your home and think of how much fun to share the pictures of your completed project!

I LOVE the granny square afghan with the fringe! The fringe makes it especially eye-catching, different, and beautiful. Thanks so much for posting it. I’m getting one started that will hopefully be completed by Christmas for a gift exchange. Thanks so much for your obvious talent and your enthusiasm for your craft.
