You’ll need to make a total of six of these squares. Each square should be around 8 inches or 20 centimeters. Each square consists of 8 rounds of granny stitches. Connect the squares with the sewing needle.
Now, we continue to work in a circle. We have two corners. Make 3DC+2CH+3DC in one space in every corner. Between the corners we are doing shell stitches. In this way we crochet 17 rounds.

Rnd 1 – 17: 3CH + 2DC + 2CH + 3DC in one space. This is the first corner. Then, we are doing shell stitches to the next corner. Then, we make the second corner (3DC+2CH+3DC in one space). We are doing shell stitches to the first corner. Connect with a SSt.
Do three more SSt before the start of the new round.

Edges – we make one round of shell stitches
