Wordle Crochet Pattern

If you’ve been on social media at all this year you have probably seen posts about the word game called Wordle. If you haven’t, it’s a game where you try to guess the day’s five-letter word within six guesses. When you make a guess it tells you which letters are correct.

The squares light up in gray, yellow and green as you guess to give you hints for your next guess (gray means the letter is not in the word, yellow it is in the word but you have it in the wrong place, and green is the correct letter in the correct spot).

Ham and Eggs designed a little Wordle character showing a Wordle board at the end of the game. You could make your own to commemorate one of your games, or just use the pattern suggested.

This would be a great of the moment Valentine’s Day gift for the Wordle lover in your life!

If you love colourful granny squares, vintage-inspired crochet and anything designed by Lori Holt, the new Granny Square Along Crochet Book deserves a spot on your wish list.

This is Lori Holt’s first crochet book, inspired by the granny squares her grandmother taught her to make. Inside are 13 creative granny square crochet projects, all presented in Lori’s wonderfully cheerful, scrappy style. Expect plenty of colourful cushions, bags, blankets and useful accessories that make the most of those little squares we can never resist making.

The spiral-bound format is a practical touch because the book should sit flat beside you while you crochet. Partial crochet diagrams are also included alongside the written instructions.

This book is best for confident beginners and intermediate crocheters. You should already understand basic crochet stitches, including chains, single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet, treble crochet and slip stitches.

Most projects use Lori Holt’s #2-weight Chunky Thread with a 3.5 mm crochet hook, although some designs worked with two strands require a 4.5 mm hook.

What I love most is the book’s nostalgic, collected-over-time look. It is colourful without being garish and scrappy without looking as though every leftover yarn ball was thrown at it in a moment of desperation. The finished projects have that cozy handmade charm Lori Holt does so well.

The book is expected to ship in September 2026. The current reservation requires a $1.50 non-refundable fee, with the remaining preorder price charged when the book ships.
