Crochet Afghan Square

This is a simple afghan square which you can make with just about any kind of yarn that you have on hand. Just keep in mind that when you use a thinner or thicker yarn that the finished size will also be different. The square shown is made with Paton's Canadiana yarn, and it measures approximately 7 inches squared.

The stitches are easy, and thus it is a great beginner crochet pattern.
