The Sunflower Granny Square Book Cover is a gentle crochet project made using four Sunflower Granny Squares joined together to create a soft book cover or journal sleeve.

This project is perfect for slow making over a few quiet days, or it can be made in an afternoon once your sunflower squares are complete. It is a useful handmade project for covering a favourite book, journal, notebook, or special gift.

The free tutorial is available on the Mavis & Flo blog.

A printable, ad-free PDF version is also available in my Etsy shop. The PDF includes the written Sunflower Granny Square pattern, book cover assembly instructions, pom pom tie instructions, and QR code links to video tutorial support.
