Vintage Granny Square Pattern | Free Crochet Pattern

This square reminds me strongly of the Art deco period which lead on to the Art's and Crafts movement.

It put's me in mind of the flapper dresses, finger waves and dapper dressed gentleman in times gone by.

The peacock fan stitch pattern only uses 2 stitches. One of them is one of the largest commonly used, the US Double Treble Crochet!

It's a great square to practice those taller stitches where you have to wrap the yarn around the hook 3 times.
