When I started making this pattern, I had absolutely no clue what it would turn into, so it was completely serendipitous that it turned into this mandala. Then, I felt as if I were cheating on my squares a bit, so I made a square to go along with it.

With the purchase of this listing, you will get the pattern for BOTH the mandala and the square.

This written pattern has detailed instructions, as well as lots of of images, tutorials, and tips to help you make it. You’ll also get a print-friendly version when you purchase the pattern.

Size:
The finished mandala measures 13 in. across.
The finished square measures 8 in. across.

Depending on your tension, yours may come out bigger or smaller, even if you use the stated yarn and hook size. To adjust the square’s size, you can change your tension, yarn weight, and/or hook size.
