🧶 31 Days of Squares – A Daily Crochet Challenge

31 Days of Squares Crochet Challenge

Welcome to 31 Days of Squares—a joyful, yarn-filled journey where we stitch up a new crochet square every day! This series began over on my old blog as an ambitious project called "365: A Year of Crochet Squares". I made it to 33 squares before life had other plans... and if you’ve ever had a creative project sidelined by reality, you know exactly how that goes. 😅

Rather than let those lovely little squares sit forgotten, I’m giving them a fresh start here on Laughing Yarns—refreshed, rewritten, and ready to inspire. I’ll be sharing the first 31 as a month-long crochet challenge... and who knows, maybe a few bonus squares will sneak in later.

This series is perfect for busting your yarn stash, building beautiful blankets, or simply adding a little creativity to your daily rhythm. Whether you’re brand new to crochet or a seasoned hook-wielding wizard, you’ll find something to love here. 💛

New posts will appear daily throughout May 2025. Be sure to bookmark this page or join the Laughing Yarns newsletter to stay updated!
