An unusual variation on the the granny square is the focus of this pattern. Nine squares are joined with slip stitches to form each side of the pillow cover.

There are a couple of unusual stitches: beg-dc6tog and dc6tog. Instructions for them are given at the beginning of the pattern.

The gauge is given in the pattern as ‘GAUGE: Rnds 1-2 = 3-1⁄2” across’
