I love making squares and even bigger squares turn into lap blankets, wheelchair blankets, baby blankets and more. These types of projects can be stash busting projects and create something beautiful!

I love to keep myself engaged and create something eye catching at the same time!

Stitches you need to know
Double crochet
Optional magic ring
Half double crochet
FPHDC, front post half double crochet
FPDC, front post double crochet
BPDC, back post double crochet
Single crochet
3 DC cluster/4 DC cluster=(yarn over insert hook into loop, pull up a loop, yarn over pull through two loops, yarn over insert hook into same loop, pull up a loop, yarn over pull through two loops, and repeat till you have four loops ( for 3 DC cluster), five loops on your hook,(for 4 DC cluster) yarn over and pull through all five loops, chain one to close.)
Crochet in back and third Loop of a stitch. When you crochet into the back Loop, when the previous row was HDC, there will be a third Loop. Put your hook into the back Loop, tilt your work a little bit towards you and look on the backside and underneath your back Loop and you will see a smaller Loop right underneath. Do that loop as well so you are putting your hook through two loops. That gives a little bit more stability than just the back Loop.
