The satisfying assembly stage
Raffamusa Designs is revisiting its Halloween granny-square collection with additions for 2026. The published schedule puts joining on 24 October and the border on 27 October. This is not an entirely new collection: it mixes earlier designs with this year's additions.
Why the finishing stage deserves a cheer
Individual squares are fun, but laying them out is where a collection starts looking like one project. Try photographing two or three arrangements before joining. It is much easier to move a square in a photo experiment than to unpick a whole seam later.
Find the real patterns
Follow the designer's page for the motifs, release links and construction details. The autumn illustration here is decorative artwork, not a picture of those squares. Our joining guide is a separate practice lesson, not a replacement for the project's own instructions.
