Did you enjoy playing with Spirograph® as a child? This Spirograph-inspired interlocking filet crochet tile is one of four tile designs included in the Going ‘Round in Circles Set.

Instructions are provided to join the tiles to create an afghan with moss-stitch and picot border, or a pillow with bobble-stitch border that buttons at the bottom.

This pattern provides both row-by-row written instructions as well as design charts for reference. Since this interlocking filet crochet project contains many diagonals crossing each other to create the design, it is recommended for someone who is comfortable with the interlocking filet mesh technique. If you haven’t tried diagonals on an interlocking filet mesh project yet, you can learn how on my YouTube Channel! You can also read about it on my blog: Interlocking Filet Mesh with Diagonals!
