Patriotic Partyghan
Choose a patriotic crochet pattern to celebrate your love for the USA. The Patriotic Partyghan requires three different sized crochet hooks. Create the stripes first, then crochet each star individually and stitch them all together to form this cool throw.
Not only is this crochet 4th of July pattern perfect for that holiday but it works for other patriotic holidays like Memorial Day, Flag Day, Labor Day, and any elections. Plus, it's a great way to feel supportive of the USA any day. It's festive, fun, and very Americana.
