We run a fundraising for Somalia during August – similar to the one for Japan initiated by Großmütterchen’s Blogspot. I modified the famous “African Flower” granny from hexagon to square format. You are invited cordially to join!
For starters – please use cotton or cotton-mixture matching hook #3 mm. The granny squares should measure appr. 10-11 cm. We will give you more information on how to proceed shortly.

Hello, this is so helpful, thank you. Do you use Uk or USA crochet terms?
Hi Pamela, she is using US crochet terms. Hope that helps!
This is such a cute pattern. Is there a web page that has the instructions written down? I find it hard to follow the video and would like to read instructions. Thanks.
Hello Penny
I was also looking for the instructions for this, and seem to have found it, or something more or less the same on: http://blairpeter.typepad.com/weblog/2012/06/granny-square-sampler-afghan-week-7.html

Wonderful pattern. Do you have written instructions I could download?
I also would love the written instructions to the Granny Square “Somalia” African Flower. It is really different.
Thank you so much
Hello i love your granny square! it is the perfect design because i was looking for a pattern to crochet squares for the knit-a-square project to be sent to african orphanages. Unfortunately after finishing one square the material refuses to lay flat and seems to be bulging/rippling a lot. Do you know what i did wrong? And how can i modify the pattern so that it is a flat square instead of a hexagon
this is very interesting would like the pattern
very interesting wonder if I could have the pattern to it
