13 Circle in Square Crochet and Knit Free Patterns

Circles made into squares are a common choice for many afghans and pillows. Knit or crochet the circle in a colorful shade, then make the square part neutral so they really stand out. These circle in square crochet and knit patterns can be used to create all kinds of different things.

To make a circle, you increase several times evenly around the piece. To make a square, you increase just at four evenly-space points. You’ll use both techniques in these patterns. Therefore, you’ll get the chance to really explore how shapes are made.

You can take what you learn making these projects and make your own projects! Take a few of the squares from a throw and combine them into a matching pillow, or make the front and back of a pillow, line it, and turn it into a bag. Your only limit is your creativity! Need some ideas: Check out our roundup of crochet and knit squares patterns.
