Notes about pattern:

This pattern is a traditional granny square with an added row in between each row to give the granny square a different look.

The even rounds are done in black to help the pattern to stand out.


Start with a magic ring/circle


Rd 1: Inside circle, ch 3, 2 dc, * ch 1, 3 dc, repeat from * 2 more times, join to beginning ch 3, end off, weave in ends, (4-3 dc groups)


Rd 2: Join yarn in any ch-1 sp, 2 sc, ch 2, 2 sc in the same sp (corner made), ch 2, * 2 sc, ch 2, 2 sc in the next ch-1 sp, repeat from * 2 more times, join to beg sc, end off, weave in ends, (4-ch-2 sps, 4-corner groups)

*Note: as you are crocheting your 3 dc groups make sure not to miss a stitch as it will throw the pattern off. It happened to me and I had to rip out 6 rounds.
