Inspired by traditional log cabin quilt blocks and the cozy charm of stacked A-frame cabins, this granny square pattern is a show-stopper. With clean lines and layered color blocks, the Stacking A-Frame Granny Square builds outward in a geometric sequence that mimics the look of stacked A Frame beams—perfect for rustic charm or modern contrast.
Each square grows in color-blocked rounds, making it a dynamic and visually interesting addition to your crochet projects. Pair it with solids, spirals, or even floral-centered grannies—it’s designed to mix and match seamlessly with other 5-round square designs.
Beginner-Friendly, But Bold in Style
Don’t be intimidated by its structured look—this pattern is completely beginner-friendly. If you can crochet a traditional granny square, you can make this too. The PDF is written in plain, easy-to-read English with no abbreviations, and comes with video tutorials for both right- and left-handed crocheters.
With simple repeats and clearly defined stitch sections, this is the ideal project for building confidence while creating something that looks polished and complex.
Designed for Creativity – Stash Buster + Showpiece
Each square is a canvas for color. Work it in earthy neutrals for a true log cabin feel, go rainbow bold for a modern geometric twist, or use tonal gradients for an ombré A-frame effect. It’s a fantastic stash-busting project, and thanks to the 5-round size, it's easy to match with other squares for sampler blankets, patchwork bags, or wall hangings.
Use these squares as feature pieces, or mix them into larger granny square projects for added texture and contrast.
