Notes

Simple 15-block C2C crochet squares, using lots of scraps (more than what’s listed above, some were so small they’re just one stripe of one square) and single skeins.

Thinner yarns doubled and tripled where needed to get approximately DK/worsted weights.

The Skeinz Urban Sport Radio Grey is the border:
Row 1 (RS): 3dc in between each square and dc-trc-dc at the corners
Row 2 (WS): hdc, decreasing every 10th stitch, with hdc-dc-hdc at the corners
Row 3 (RS): hdc, with hdc-dc-hdc at the corners
