Corner-to-corner patches

I’m a little obsessed with the corner-to-corner crochet method. I’ve been making 7×9 inch rectangles for Warm Up America with scrap yarn, but I have even smaller lengths of yarn and wondered if I could connect small C2C squares.

I used a wood K crochet hook, which has been working well for my Tunisian crochet experiments, but was a little too big for this project. I do like the idea of the connected squares, so I’ll give it another go with a smaller hook.

On another rabbit hole, C2C crochet can also be used to make pixel art blankets. It is fun to scroll through the images, except the AI ones, those are frustrating and should all have disclaimers.
