From website: “This is an easy pattern for an afghan square in rows of shells and double crochet, finished with rounds of shells to complete the design.”

Gauge: 2 dc rows = 1 inch, 4 dc = 1 inch. Gauge is not important in this afghan square unless for some reason you need the square to be a specific size.“

Correction, in bold, in the repeat section of outside round 4:

* dc in ea of next 7 dc, hdc in ea of next 3 dc, ch 1, skip next dc, hdc in next dc, ch 1, skip next dc, hdc in ea of next 3 dc, dc in ea of next 7 dc, (2 dc, ch 3, 2 dc) in next ch-2 corner sp **
