Finished Size: Approx. 58″ x 58″
The finished bag size may vary depending on your yarn and hook size. It’s also very easy to adjust the size by adding or subtracting the HST squares! I added an aqua border, then a cute bobble border as well. It is a lot of fun and looks great!

Since these squares are essentially half-square-triangles, there are a variety of layout options you can choose from as well! I love the star layout, but I thought it would be fun to show you a few other ideas too!
