Granny Rose Pillow (From Original CAL) | Refreshed Crochet Pattern

Here's a "Throw Back Thursday" if I've ever seen one...

🎕 The Granny Rose Pillow from the Original CAL Crochet Pattern 🎕

It has been refreshed and re-released

and

 includes an additional video link for a two-color rose square.

(I am busying myself with this 2020 New Year's Resolution of refreshing my patterns.)

2025 UPDATE:

  You can find this pattern SOON in the 

Apple Blossom Dreamz (yes with a z)

Etsy shop

by clicking here.

The pictured pillow and the pattern is photographed and written with
100% acrylic worsted weight yarn.
(It's a great stashbuster.)

The refreshed pattern has been thoroughly tested and the following
Granny Rose Squares are the result of testing the squares:

Please check back tomorrow to see what these squares turned into after testing the
join, edge and insert.

Thank you so much for your interest in this pattern!

Warmly,
