Special Stitches

Puff Stitch: To create a Puff Stitch, follow these steps: Yarn over, insert your hook into the designated stitch, yarn over, and pull up a loop three times (resulting in 7 loops on your hook). Then, yarn over and pull through all the loops on your hook. Finish by chaining 1 to secure the puff stitch.

Cluster Stitch: The Cluster Stitch is crafted as follows: Yarn over, insert your hook into the specified stitch, yarn over, and pull up a loop, then yarn over and pull through 2 loops four times (leaving you with 5 loops on your hook). Finally, yarn over and pull through all the loops on your hook to complete the cluster stitch.

Pattern Instructions

Round 1

Start with a magic ring. Alternatively, you can commence with a chain: Create a slip knot, chain 5, and connect with a slip stitch.

Next, chain 3 (this counts as your initial double crochet) and craft 15 additional double crochets into the ring. Join by making a slip stitch to the top of the initial chain-3. (Totaling 16 stitches) Now, snip the yarn and securely fasten it off.

Round 2

Begin by attaching a new strand of yarn using a slip stitch to any double crochet (dc). Chain 2, create a puff stitch in the same stitch, and continue making puff stitches in each double crochet around. Finish by joining with a slip stitch to the initial puff stitch. You should have a total of 16 puff stitches. Cut the yarn and secure it by fastening off.

To create a puff stitch:

Yarn over and insert the hook into the designated stitch, then pull up a loop (resulting in 3 loops on the hook).

Yarn over again, insert the hook into the same stitch, and pull up another loop (for a total of 5 loops on the hook).

Yarn over once more, insert the hook into the same stitch, and pull up yet another loop (now with 7 loops on the hook).

Finally, yarn over and pull the yarn through all the loops on the hook, followed by chaining 1 to secure the stitch.

Round 3

Begin this round by attaching a new yarn with a slip stitch into any of the chain-1 spaces. Then, chain 2. In this round, we will be creating a series of cluster stitches. Crafting a cluster stitch is akin to executing a sequence of unfinished double crochet stitches.

The initial cluster stitch of this round differs slightly to accommodate the initial chain-2. To craft the first cluster stitch, follow these steps: Yarn over, insert your hook into the same stitch, yarn over again, and pull up a loop. Yarn over once more and pull through 2 loops. Repeat these steps two more times. This will result in having 4 loops on your hook. Yarn over and pull through all 4 loops to finalize the stitch. After that, chain 2.

Following that, proceed to create the remaining cluster stitches as follows: (Cluster stitch, chain 2) in the subsequent chain-1 space and in each chain-1 space all the way around. Join everything together with a slip stitch to the initial cluster stitch. This will yield a total of 16 cluster stitches. To finish, cut the yarn and fasten off.

To create a cluster stitch, follow these steps:

Yarn over, then insert your hook into the designated space, and pull up a loop. Yarn over once more, and pull through 2 loops (resulting in 2 loops on your hook).

Yarn over, insert your hook into the same space, and pull up a loop. Yarn over again, and pull through 2 loops (now there are 3 loops on your hook).

Yarn over, insert your hook into the same space, and pull up a loop. Yarn over one more time, and pull through 2 loops (resulting in 4 loops on your hook).

Yarn over, insert your hook into the same space, and pull up a loop. Yarn over and pull through 2 loops (leaving you with 5 loops on your hook).

Finally, yarn over and pull the yarn through all the loops on your hook.

Round 4:

Begin by attaching a new yarn using a slip stitch in any of the chain-2 spaces. Chain 4, which counts as your initial treble crochet (tr), and then work 2 tr stitches in the same space.

Proceed to create the first side of the square as follows: Work 3 double crochets (dc) in the next chain-2 space, followed by 3 half double crochets (hdc) in the subsequent chain-2 space, and then complete the side with 3 more double crochets in the next chain-2 space. This sequence forms the first side of the square.

Now, craft the first corner: Work 3 treble crochets (tr) in the following chain-2 space, chain 3, and then work another 3 treble crochets in the same chain-2 space. This combination forms the first corner.

Proceed to repeat this side and corner pattern for the other three sides and corners in the square.

For the second side: Begin with 3 double crochets in the next chain-2 space, then follow with 3 half double crochets in the subsequent chain-2 space, and complete the side with 3 more double crochets in the next chain-2 space.

For the second corner: Work 3 treble crochets in the next chain-2 space, chain 3, and then work another 3 treble crochets in the same chain-2 space.

Moving on to the third side: Start with 3 double crochets in the next chain-2 space, followed by 3 half double crochets in the subsequent chain-2 space, and complete the side with 3 more double crochets in the next chain-2 space.

For the third corner: Work 3 treble crochets in the next chain-2 space, chain 3, and then work another 3 treble crochets in the same chain-2 space.

Crochet the final side: Begin with 3 double crochets in the next chain-2 space, followed by 3 half double crochets in the subsequent chain-2 space, and complete the side with 3 more double crochets in the next chain-2 space.

To complete the last corner: Work 3 treble crochets in the same space as the initial treble stitches, chain 3, and then join them with a slip stitch to the top of the starting chain-4.
