Acorn Pixel Art Square

When I got the idea that I wanted to work an Acorn Square for fall, I decided I would make some two round solid granny squares, use my favorite join method for the squares, and create a fall inspired pixel art piece.

What can it be used for? Well, it could be used as a doily, as a piece of wall art if attached to a dowel or canvas, as a blouse if worked as the front piece, an afghan square to a larger blanket, the front piece to a tote bag, a rug if worked with four strands of worsted weight yarn… So many possibilities, and so many more than mentioned.

Materials You'll Need: 360 Yards of Lightweight #3 Yarn (or 119 yards each of the three colors) - I used Baby Bee’s Sweet Delight Yarn in Naked Cream, Teddy Light Brown and Chocolate Dark Brown and a G6/4mm Crochet Hook.

Yarn Alternative: Berroco's Vintage DK.

Time Spent: About 7 Hours.
