Beautiful beginners crochet pattern, from, circle to granny square!

A Crochet Block a Month: January 2025 🌸

One of the things I love most about the crochet community is how it brings people together — sharing stitches, stories, and inspiration from all over the world. This year, I’ve joined a wonderful group on Ravelry called “A Crochet Block a Month 2025”, and I’m so excited to be part of it!

Each month, we work on a new pattern, and this month’s beautiful design comes from the talented Desire Fourie. You can check out her blog here — it’s full of creative inspiration, patterns, and crochet goodness.


🧶 This Month’s Project

This month’s block starts as a circle that gradually transforms into a granny square — a classic crochet shape that’s endlessly versatile. It’s such a satisfying technique to learn (or revisit!) because you get to see that smooth transition from round to square right before your eyes.

In my latest video, I’ll take you through the process step-by-step, sharing some of my favourite techniques and little tips along the way. Whether you’re new to crochet or a seasoned hook-wielder, this is a fun, relaxing project that adds a beautiful block to your collection.


✨ Why I Love Crochet-Alongs

Joining a monthly crochet-along like this one keeps me inspired and motivated — it’s a lovely reminder to carve out time for creativity each month. There’s something special about knowing that makers all around the world are working on the same stitches at the same time, each adding their own colours, textures, and style.


So grab your hook, some yarn you love, and let’s get crocheting! Watch as I turn this simple circle into a gorgeous granny square — and maybe learn a few new tricks along the way.
