This is a variation of the stitch used in Granny Squares made evenly (instead of alternating placement of blocks) and in rows from side to side using a post stitch in the center of the block to give a raised or ribbed effect every group of 6 rows.

This is a variation on my original Etta’s Friends Slippers pattern but using a Suzette stitch instead of Hdc. Also using a sc, dc variation to make a Wavy look. In general, it is the best I remember from my Grandma making house slippers for friends and family back in the 70s.

This is a graph pattern only to show how I assembled blocks of c2c to make a Carpenter Wheel main piece with several rows of join-as-you-go border. It isn’t really intended to teach you how to do Corner to Corner crochet.

This is a pattern I used to make two simple potholders, one with a fpdc and the other with a dc spike stitch. Both are about 7” H x 6” W when the border is added.

I used an Arcade stitch I found on New Stitch a Day (link should be noted in this post) to create a shrug crocheted in one continuous rectangular piece, folded in half side-to-side and joined together for just 12” from each of the ends to form sleeves.

This can be worked in any type yarn you desire depending on what you want to use the square for. You could make 35 or so and sew them together for a very lacy blanket or you could mix them with a traditional granny square with the result being a mix in looks and texture.
