Feminine Flower Motif
~CRocheted Granny Square~
Copyright © 2004 by Patti Gonsalves

This pattern is much like a granny square, only it starts out with a 5-open-petaled flower and then the granny square is started from behind the flower so that the petals are free and more distinguishable then if the granny square were started in the petals. There is also a small ruffle on the next to last round.
