Jingle bells C2C crochet square pattern

This Jingle Bells C2C crochet square adds a festive holiday design to blankets, pillows, tote bags, wall hangings, and other Christmas projects. It’s one of 12 coordinating squares from my Christmas C2C crochet blanket pattern, but it also works beautifully as a standalone project.

Quick answer

This intermediate Jingle Bells C2C crochet square uses worsted weight (#4) yarn and an I-9 (5.5 mm) crochet hook. It is worked corner to corner from a 25 × 25 block graph, increasing through Row 25 and then decreasing through Row 49. The finished square measures approximately 16 × 16 inches (41 × 41 cm) including the border, and the pattern includes both a graph and written color counts.
