I’ve also managed to film a tutorial for them and how I join them – if you are new to crochet or just prefer to follow a visual tutorial please go and have a look here.

I’ve joined my squares in two 3×3 pieces and have simply joined them to create a lovely big bag… I’ll share some photos here later, but for now here’s the square pattern – I hope you enjoy making them as much as I do!

I’ve joined my squares to make a bag using the join as you go method. You can see the method I use in the video tutorial here, alternatively, you can join your squares by sewing them together or crocheting with a slip stitch/double crochet.

As always if you do make them, I’d love to see your projects – please feel free to tag me over on Instagram: @Lululoves_UK or use the hashtag #luluovescrochet
