Gretchen Crochet Square – Moogly 2018 CAL Square 2

Gretchen is the second square in the Moogly 2018 CAL.  It is from Julie Yeager Designs.

This square is a little more complicated than others that have been in the Moogly CALs in the past but if you take your time you will be able to do it.

I love it both in color and solid.  My girl friend was over when I was working on the square and has decided she needs a throw for her couch with the center in green and cream and the edge in gray.  She went to the hobby store on her way home and already has a dozen squares done a week later.

Pattern Notes

General

Make sure to read her notes on the stitches before you start.  You may not have done a double treble before – don’t be afraid it is just a really tall stitch.

Body

R4 – You will start with a sl in the right spot, sc in next dc.  It is ok if it curls a little when you do this round.  It will flatten back out when you finish the square.

R5 – To finish you need to sl st the turning chain with the last sc of the pattern repeat.

R6 – The ch bars are going to go across the shells you made in R5.

R8 – Slip stitch to the corner.

R9 – Slip stitch to the corner.

R11 – Slip stitch to the 4th treble.
