Sun Motif Square PDF – Color-Shift Circle to Square, Defined Corners

Crochet a radiant Sun motif square that starts in the round and finishes as a crisp cornered square. You’ll build a center circle, add twelve yellow arch groups, then work a framing round in brown that turns the circle into a square with clean treble-chain-treble corners. Clear counts keep everything even (36-stitch center; 12 arches).

What you’ll make
A color-shifted Sun square with a neat center (magic ring), balanced arches, and firm sides that flow into sharp corners—perfect for blankets, bags, cushions, or modular projects.
