Thanks to Lion Brand Yarn for sending yarn to me for this project!
Welcome to the Crochet Along! Today I am sharing my square, the aztec stripes square.
Here’s how it is going to work:
- Every day (M-F) a new square pattern will be posted on one of our ten blogs.
- You can join in the fun by crocheting each day’s square on that day whenever you have time.
- Share your progress and post photos of your squares in our facebook group.
- By the end of the Crochet Along you will have twenty 12″ squares all ready to be pieced together into a beautiful afghan just in time for the holiday season.
- Finally, we will be hosting some fabulous giveaways! You could win Lion Brand yarn to make your own afghan, $100 CASH money, OR our COMPLETED AFGHAN! That’s right, we are going to be piecing all of our squares together and shipping an afghan out to one very lucky winner.

Happy crocheting,
This is not the same pattern. It’s completely different than the picture a n what it says it is.
Interesting, how is yours different? can you email a photo? Bethany (at) whistleandivy (dot) com
The photo at the top says Aztec Stripes, but the pattern is for the photo at the bottom
The pattern is for the main photo at the top, with the spike stitches, I call it Aztec stripes. This is not the same pattern as the minion stripes or the colorblock.
