20 of America’s Favorite Patriotic Crochet Afghan Patterns + Granny Squares

Think of summer… What comes to mind? Sunshine. Popsicles. Swimming pools. Red, White and Blue. Flags waving in the breeze and bunting on front porches.

I love decorating the outside of the house this time of year, showing off my patriotism, but often lack in the inside decorating. This year, I’ve decided to bring the colors of summer inside and show some of these great free crochet afghan patterns. These patriotic patterns  are easy to work, and are bold in the message they convey: proudly display the red, white and blue! Whether you want to crochet up your own version of the American flag or some lovely free crochet granny squares in festive colors, there is a pattern here for you. Any of these great American afghan patterns would make wonderful gifts for special active duty or veteran service member in your life, as well. They’ll proudly display your heroic work and beam to anyone who asks how proud they are to have received such a sweet sentiment.
