Snowdrop

Snowdrop is a Afghan square that is made in Image Overlay Crochet, a technique that involves a background layer and an image layer that are created at the same time. The project is crocheted over 20 rounds, always facing the same side ("in the round"). Gauge is not important. You can choose any yarn you like and a hook that creates a fabric that is well-balanced between firm and floppy, depending on your preference.
