Crocheting is a fun and relaxing craft that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and skill levels. Here is a simple crochet pattern for a basic square that is perfect for beginners:Materials needed:
- Worsted weight yarn
- Crochet hook size G/4.0mm
- Make a slip knot and chain 4.
- Join the chain into a ring by slip stitching into the first chain.
- Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet stitch), then work 2 more double crochets into the center of the ring.
- Chain 2, then work 3 more double crochets into the center of the ring.
- Repeat step 4 (2 double crochets, chain 2, 3 double crochets) two more times, so that you have four clusters of stitches separated by chain-2 spaces.
- Slip stitch into the top of the chain-3 stitch at the beginning of the round to join.
- Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet stitch), then work 2 more double crochets into the chain-2 space of the previous round.
- Chain 1, then work 3 more double crochets into the same chain-2 space.
- Work 3 double crochets, chain 2, 3 double crochets into the next chain-2 space.
- Repeat step 9 (3 double crochets, chain 2, 3 double crochets) into each of the remaining chain-2 spaces around.
- Slip stitch into the top of the chain-3 stitch at the beginning of the round to join.
- Repeat steps 7-11 until your square is the desired size.
