50 Coquette & Valentine's Day Granny Squares to Make 🎀❤️
Valentine’s day is around the corner, or Galentine’s day of course if that’s your thing, and Coquette aesthetic is everywhere right now for sure. So, I will share 25 Valentine’s Day and Coquette style granny square that you can make for love season or really anytime you feel like being extra feminine and flirty.
I know that I personally have always been kind of neutral about celebrating Valentine’s Day as an adult, I loved it as a kid though of course. I’ve always loved the kitschy sort of vibe that it has. I mean red hearts, little cupids everywhere and phrases like be mine or I’m yours.
So I had fun compiling these granny square patterns together for this video, and have separated them into two categories: Coquette and Valentine’s Day. All of the exact links to each pattern can also be found underneath the picture of each granny square below.
