It's time to work on some more small squares and this time it's not really a mystery because you know these steps since clue #3. The difference is now we are crocheting 28 of them, in two different colour combinations!
Already a CAL pro? You can skip the pictures and go directly to the complete diagram (or the video) at the bottom of the clue.
We will work 4 rounds in square A.4B with the following colours:
CAST ON + ROUND 1: 06 light jeans blue
ROUNDS 2-3: 05 light wash
ROUND 4: 01 white
CAST ON:
Work 4 chain stitches with light jeans blue, form them to a ring with 1 slip stitch in the first chain stitch.
ROUND 1:
Work 1 chain stitch (equivalent to the first double crochet).
Work * 2 chain stitches, 2 double crochets around the ring *, repeat *-* a total of 3 times.
Work 2 chain stitches, 1 double crochet around the ring and finish the round with 1 slip stitch in the first chain stitch at the beginning of the round. Do not change colour.
Work 1 slip stitch around the first chain-space at the same time as you change to light wash, read COLOUR CHANGE TIP below. Cut the light jeans blue strand.
COLOUR CHANGE TIP:
To get the neatest transition when changing colour, work the last stitch before the colour change in the new colour.
ROUND 2:
Work 3 chain stitches (equivalent to the first treble crochet), 1 treble crochet around the first chain-space, 2 chain stitches, 2 treble crochets around the same chain-space, 1 chain stitch.
Work * 2 treble crochets around the next chain-space, 2 chain stitches, 2 treble crochets around the same chain-space, 1 chain stitch *, repeat *-* a total of 3 times.
Finish the round with 1 slip stitch in the 3rd chain stitch at the beginning of the round.
ROUND 3:
Work 1 slip stitch around the first chain-space, 3 chain stitches (equivalent to the first treble crochet), 2 treble crochets around the same chain-space, 2 chain stitches, 3 treble crochets around the same chain-space, 1 chain stitch.
Work * 3 treble crochets around the next chain-space, 2 chain stitches, 3 treble crochets around the same chain-space, 1 chain stitch *, repeat *-* a total of 3 times.
Finish the round with 1 slip stitch in the 3rd chain stitch at the beginning of the round, at the same time as you change to white. Cut the light wash strand.
ROUND 4:
Work 1 chain stitch, read CROCHET INFO below.
CROCHET INFO:
The round starts with 1 chain stitch before the first double crochet (this chain stitch does not replace the first double crochet).
Work * 1 double crochet in each of the next 3 stitches, 2 double crochets around the chain-space, 2 chain stitches, 2 double crochets around the same chain-space, 1 double crochet in each of the next 3 stitches, 2 half treble crochets around the chain stitch from rounds 2 and 3 *, repeat *-* a total of 4 times.
Finish the round with 1 slip stitch in the first chain stitch at the beginning of the round. Cut and fasten the strands!
We have now finished one square A.4B, which should measure 8 x 8 cm.
Work a total of 14 of these squares in the same colour combination as shown here:
Now you just need to work 14 more squares in our second colour combination (as seen below).
CAST ON + ROUND 1: light lilac
ROUND 2 - 3: lilac
ROUND 4: white
= | 4 chain stitches, form them to a ring with 1 slip stitch in the first chain stitch – see point on circle, the round starts and ends here | |
= | chain stitch | |
= | slip stitch in/around stitch | |
= | double crochet around chain-space/chain-stitch ring | |
= | double crochet in stitch | |
= | treble crochet around chain-space | |
= | 1 half treble crochet around the chain stitch from rounds 2 and 3 |
