MooglyCAL2023 – Block 6
MooglyCAL2023 Block 6 is a lovely, floral, center-out square, courtesy of Hooked For Life Publishing! The Framed Carnation Square features tons of texture, and lots of color opportunities! This is part of the 2023 Moogly Crochet Along.
Mary Beth’s square is 3D without being weighty or thick – the light and loopy flower jumps right up at you! I love the combination of floral and geometric found here. Mary Beth’s pattern is easy to follow, and a joy to make.

This square required mild blocking. I used the wet blocking method, or you could use light steam.
