Recommended Yarn and Crochet Hooks

For this Pentagon Granny Square, Loopara milk cotton yarn is an excellent choice. It's soft, durable, and comes in a wide range of colors. Consider using a vibrant shade like orange for the outer ring, and pastels for the inner petals - light pink, pale yellow, and mint green work well. A white center helps the colors stand out.

We'll be using a 2.3mm crochet hook for this project. This relatively small hook size helps create neat, tight stitches that give the square a polished, professional look. If you're new to working with smaller hooks, take your time and be patient with yourself - you'll get the hang of it quickly.

These charming pentagon shapes aren't just pretty to look at - they're incredibly useful too.

Join a bunch together to create a cozy blanket. Or, use them to add a unique touch to cushion covers, bringing a pop of handmade charm to your living room. Feeling crafty? Try incorporating a few pentagons into a tote bag design for a eye-catching accessory. You could even frame a granny square as a piece of wall art, showcasing your crochet skills in a creative way.

The possibilities are as endless as your imagination! You're also free to play with color combinations - try an ombré effect, stick to a single color family, or mix contrasting hues for visual interest. Don't be afraid to experiment!

How to Join Granny Squares

Granny squares are perfect for bags, clothing, and blankets. If you're thinking of making one with those squares, I'm excited to share my comprehensive guide on 11 Ways to Join Granny Squares with you! I've detailed every method I know and love - each brings its own special touch to your finished piece. Let me help you discover which one works best for you!

 

How to Change Colors in a Granny Square

Are you looking for a different color palette? I totally get it—it’s why I love crochet! If you’re not crazy about our color palette, I put together two color-changing techniques that I use for all of my projects. Let me show you how to make these color transitions smooth and professional so you can bring your unique, creative vision to life.

 

How to Weave in Ends Crochet Granny Square

The secret for professional-looking granny squares is all about how you weave in those ends. I'm sharing 3 ways to weave in ends with you! These are techniques I've perfected over years of crocheting and use in all my projects. I'll show you exactly how I secure my ends to make sturdy, polished pieces that last. Trust me, once you master these finishing methods, your granny squares will look absolutely stunning!

 

Care instructions

Let's talk about keeping your beautiful Pentagon Granny Square looking its best!

First up, washing. Since we've used that lovely Loopara milk cotton yarn, you're in luck – it's pretty easy to care for. For best results, hand wash your creation in cool water with a gentle detergent. Avoid wringing or twisting; instead, gently squeeze out excess water. If you're in a rush, you can machine wash on a delicate cycle, but I'd recommend popping it in a mesh bag first to protect those pretty stitches.

When it comes to drying, resist the urge to hang your granny square – this can stretch it out of shape. Instead, lay it flat on a clean towel and reshape it while damp. Let it air dry away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.

Storage is key to maintaining your granny square's shape. Fold it gently and store in a cool, dry place. If you're stashing it away for a while, consider placing it in a breathable fabric bag to keep dust at bay. Avoid plastic containers, which can trap moisture and lead to mildew – yuck!

To keep those colors vibrant, try to limit exposure to direct sunlight when your granny square is on display. If you're using it in a project that gets a lot of use (like a blanket or bag), expect some natural fading over time – but think of it as your creation developing character!

Lastly, give your Pentagon Granny Square a little TLC now and then. Gently reshape it after washing, and if you notice any loose ends, don't hesitate to weave them back in. With a little care, your handmade creation will be bringing smiles for years to come!

Crochet Granny Square

A pentagon granny square is a unique variation of the classic crochet motif. It features five sides instead of four, creating a striking geometric shape. Typically worked from the center outward, each round builds upon the last, forming a pentagonal pattern. This versatile design can be used for blankets, bags, or decorative elements in various projects.
