I’ve been searching everywhere for american themed knitting patterns, like for granny squares and stuff like that. The only patterns i can get off search engines are socks and the ones that look good are crochet patterns and i am not very good at crocheting, so i am stuck.
If anyone can help me out,i would really apprechiate it!
thanks a bunch.

There is the Great American Afghanand The Great American Aran Afghan…
There was also someone who did the States and made the Flag out of them…but I haven’t found that yet :think:
ETA: I can’t find a finished photo of the afghan…but they took these dishclothsand did the states in red and white…then the star cloth in blue…and made the US flag from them
Thanks for those, i apprechiate it:-)
I happened to have a bookmark of the american flag afghan
made from the states dishcloths that dustinac is talking
about so here it is

i tried knitting the flag afghan of every state, but for some reason, mine are turning up reversed from what it should look like, i dont know if i have done anything wrong, but i am sure i haven’t. it is just weird how they are turning up like a mirror image of the pics from the site.
