Polka Dot Afghan pattern

Can a round peg fit in a square hole? A perplexing problem for some but the inspiration for this very easy, very chic crocheted polka dot afghan. Simply crochet a very round center, square off the edges with the bordering rows and voila! … a sensationally youthful motif. This is the companion pattern for the video How to Crochet the Polka Dot Motif.

Whether you choose pastels on white for baby or neon colors on black for the teen, the polka dot frenzy will infect your imagination.

Next, the polka dot motifs are joined into a cheerful afghan using an innovative technique! What is so exciting is that the joining technique can be used to assemble any square crochet motifs with equally delightful results. The seams are very neat and flat. Corners meet with precision. Finishing is reduced to a minimum. Best of all, assembling the entire afghan only takes a few hours.

The seam lines end gracefully when they meet an unusual edging. The soft, rolling border frames the afghan and compliments the seaming and lends itself perfectly to the addition of fringe. For baby afghans, however, please omit the fringe. Little fingers may inadvertently pull a strand out and could potentially choke on it.

So… delight in your polka dots! Play with bright and cheerful colors! Give in to your wild side and enjoy this crocheted polka dot afghan!
