Steps to Crochet the Squares

Row Instructions

Follow these steps to create your squares:

• Row 1: HDC the entire row, then turn.
• Row 2: DC the entire row, then turn.

You will continue this method until you reach Row 7.

Then you will cut and continue on to the next one!

Note: You will create 6 sets of these squares: 3 in one color, 3 in another color!

Finishing Touches

Once finished, it will look like this!

To add a border to the squares, use the same color as the square and SC around each square. Do this for all six squares.

To connect the squares, you can use whichever yarn you want to sew them together, side by side. By sewing the stitches together as shown in the photo above, connect all of the squares.

Once all of the squares are sewn together, add a border using your chosen yarn (I chose the brown yarn).

Creating the Ruching

To create the ruching effect, use the yarn sewing needle and sew down the middle, scrunching the band together as shown in the photo above. Pull to tighten the yarn to tie it!
