Crochet Circle to Square Transition Worksheet + Tutorial

Sharing is caring!

Crochet Transition from Circle to Square
Crochet Transition from Circle to Square

Transitioning a circle project into a square is not as hard as you may imagine. I created a Circle to Square Transition Worksheet.

The circles are smaller in size, I turn to Yarnspirations to look for other patterns where a circle has been converted into a square. Usually, the smaller sizes have free patterns to reference.

Most of the questions we receive are when the circle is substantial in size like 140 sts and above. There is a mathematical way of doing this and you will use your hook and do each round making a decision each time.

In a circle of 160 sts, it takes about 3 rounds to get the square. In my future blanket with 292 sts in the round, it took me 5 rounds to get to a square.

The worksheet deals with mathematics and tips to get started. There is not a solution for everyone. It's customized. Messaging me to figure this out for you won't work as I physically have to do it myself to give solid numbers. So I am leaving you how I figure it out in the hopes you will put in the work to solve this problem on your own.

    Oh my crochet goodness! I’m attempting to make a giant cocoon cardigan for myself using a tree of life mandala pattern that I bought off Etsy and this is the exact information my crochet ignorant self needed to convert the circle into a square and be able to add more rows to make it bigger and bigger and biggest.

    I am indebted to you and your YouTube channel for the technical support you’ve provided me over the years. If I wasn’t the broke single mom I sadly am, I would support your crochet crowd channel in the form of monetary gratitude but I hope this comment finds you and gives you a moment of validation and happiness. Thank you so much!

      I'm so glad this resource worked for you. You have to put in time to figure it out and make sure it stays flat. The Study of the Journey took me continuous frogging to get it to be square without buckling. You are capable of many things. There is never any pressure to support the crochet membership and your immediate family and medical is more important to take care of. Best wishes! Thank you for sharing your personal story with me. Michael
