Block 13 - A Square in a Square in A Square

I've been busy finishing up other projects and orders....

so I haven't had time to work on my squares. 

 

I'm happy to be working on then again!

 

They are kinda of a way that I can be creative with my crochet.

 

This next square is really easy.

 

 

 My instructions probably aren't very clear and I apologize for that in advance.

I'm writing them out in my own way mainly for me to go back and make more squares for another afghan, but I will be more than happy to try to help you understand my way of writing if you are interested in making some of these squares. 

 Just leave a comment or email me.

 

 

I started with a 6 ch to make my circle.

 

 

Row 1:  ch 3, 2 DC, ch 3, then do 3 DC, ch 3 to make a total of 4 sections.

 

Row 2:  just like your regular granny square---3 DC, ch 3, 3 DC in each corner space and ch 1 in between.

 

Row 3:  5 SC in each corner space and 1 SC in each DC and ch 1 space around.

 

Row 4:  In each corner space (the middle of the 5 SC) make 2 DC, 3 ch, 2 DC and then a DC in the BL of each of the SC of the previous row.  So 11 DC in the BL and 2 in each corner.

 

Row 5:  Same as Row 3.  (19 SC)

 

Row 6:  In each corner 1 DC, ch2, 1 DC and then on each side ch 1, 19 DC, ch1

 

Row 7:  In each corner 3 SC, then on each side 23 SC

 

Row 8:  In the middle SC of Row 7 make 2 SC, ch 2, 2 SC and then on each side ch 1, SC, ch 1, SC all the way across for a total of 12 SC and 13 ch on each side plus the corner spaces.

 

Row 9:  In each corner make 1 SC, ch 2, 1 SC then on the sides make a SC in each BL of the previous rows SC and a SC in each ch space.for a total of 31 SC on each side.

 

Row 10:  35 SC in each SC of the previous row.  Two SC in each corner and 2 ch plus 31 SC on each side for a total of 35.
