Running Rings Around Granny Wall Hanging | Free Crochet Pattern
The Running Rings Around Granny square is so versatile that this crochet wall hanging pattern is another way to use my granny circle to square pattern to create a unique wall art that will add interest to any wall.
You can choose to make your wall hanging in colours to suit your home décor or go bold and bright to create a standout piece that captures everyone’s attention.
The Running Rings collection started out as a beautiful crochet teapot cosy that has a classical, vintage feel that lead me to create a granny square that used both the circular granny and combine it with the solid granny square to create another take on working with the granny stitch.
You can see variations of this stitch combination throughout the following patterns in the Running Rings Collection:
I still have more ideas and designs that I am planning to use this design in – as it’s just so fun to use!
