Concentric Circles Granny Square

"The simple circle-within-a-square pattern is a great stash buster. It’s meets donation requirements for Knit-A-Square, an organization that distributes crochet and knit blankets (made from 8”/20 cm squares), hats, and toys to children in South Africa. It is part of my monthly charity spotlight feature which highlights organizations that accept handmade donations. Skills Used Basic crochet stitches: chain, double crochet, half double crochet, single crochet, slip stitch Crocheting in the round, increasing, crocheting in chain spaces Skill Level Easy Finished Size Motif: 8” (20 cm) square.
