The Chinese Evergreen Leaf Square – Crochet Pattern

The Chinese Evergreen Square, my contribution to the ‘Plants with Yarn CAL’, is a celebration of the captivating beauty of the Aglaonema plant. With its striking patterns and variegated leaves, the Chinese Evergreen Square reflects the essence of this popular house plant. As you crochet each stitch, imagine the gentle rustle of leaves and the tranquility of an indoor garden, providing a sense of calm and serenity.

Consider the recipient of your handmade creation as you crochet the Chinese Evergreen Square. Is it a cherished friend who loves plants and all things green? Perhaps it's a family member who will appreciate the thoughtful and personal touch of a handcrafted blanket. Whoever receives this botanical gem will feel the love and care poured into every stitch.

On a personal note, I finally managed to squeeze in a much-needed haircut (yes, self-care is important!) and received the incredible opportunity to work on not just one, but two magazine commissions. Busy doesn't even begin to describe it!
