Circle Granny Square Pattern - Titan's Wheel

Introducing Titan's Wheel, a simple circle granny square pattern with six rounds that looks like a big wheel!
The first round makes a solid center, like the hub of a wheel. Round two has double crochet stitches spaced out, making spokes from the center.
Round three looks like a rim with stitches placed side by side. It is a fun design!
Customize it using one color or different colors for each round to create a fresh look every time!
