Notes

I really like this square. The pattern verbiage is confusing and has some errors but the designer is amending the pattern. Don’t let it keep you from making this block - it’s fun to do! Until then, here are the errors I found:

Rnd 1: When she says “2dctog” and “3dctog” she is meaning “2 dc” and “3 dc”

Rnd 8: sc in corner, ch2, sk 3 st, (sc in next st, ch 2, sk 2 st) 3 times, hdc in next, ch 2, sk 2, (sc in next, ch 2, sk 2) three times around.

Rnd 10: First part should be: “Working in BLO, ch 1, sc in same st and in each of the next 4 sts, ……”

These changes I made to square up the block a bit more (it still wanted to “bow” in the middle):

Rnd 11: (work corner as written), (2 dc in next st, ch 2, sk 2 sts) 3 times, (2 hdc in next st, ch 2, sk 2 sts) 3 times, (2 dc in next st ch 2, sk 2 sts) 3 times around

Rnd 13: (hdc, ch 2, hdc) in corner, hdc next 9, sc next 18, hdc next 9 around
