New Year New You
Start the year off right and fly straight into making this beautiful square. January’s seasonal square is a handsome robin cosying up on a branch against the snowy landscape, his little feet poking out beneath his plumage.

A whole lot of love
The month of love will soon be upon us, and this square is a fun and sweet way to commemorate the season. This characterful penguin was made using Rico Ricorumi Nilli Nilli, a chenille-type yarn that brings a comforting softness.

School’s out for summer
As 2027 reaches summertime, there’s no need to put down your crochet hook! Simply stitch June’s imaginative holiday square, complete with suitcases, pool inflatables and a bucket.

The Wheel Deal
August’s seasonal square boasts an impressive red tractor, complete with French knot flower embellishments and a miniature steering wheel.

This wonderful calendar was designed by crochet designer Kate Eastwood (@just_pootling), in collaboration with Simply Crochet and Rico Design. Kate is a talented designer based in the UK, and the author of Crocheted Squares: 35 patterns to make.
