Crochet Granny Square Pattern #2

This motif - variation on the theme of the granny square. For crocheting we use extended crochet stitches. If you didn't hear about ones, we suggest you read article How to crochet the extended crochet stitches. Unlike the traditional granny square, its lines are softer and the corners slightly rounded. Start crocheting from the centre, beforehand making the initial ring with sliding loop or chain stitches. Crochet in the round, don't turn your work.

In order to continue, we examine how to crochet a group of three double crochet stitches. First make 1 extended double crochet stitch, and then 2 double crochet stitches in the base of the extended stitch under both loop. We formed the bundle of three stitches.

1 round: 3 chains, 11 double crochet in ring, join with slip stitch;

2 round: 3 chains, group of three stitches in space between chains and first double crochet of previous row, skip 3 stitches, make 2 groups of three stitches in space between 3rd and 4th stitches of previous row, skip 3 stitches, 2 groups of three stitches in space between 6th and 7th stitches, then 2 groups of three stitches in space between 9th and 10th stitches, then 1 group of two stitches in space between chains and first double crochet of previous row, join with slip stitch in top chain and then make another one slip stitch. We formed four corners of the square;

3 round: 3 chains, 1 group of three stitches in space between chains and first double crochet of previous row, * 1 group of three stitches in space between two next groups of stitches (group stitches between corners), 2 groups of three stitches in next corner space between groups of stitches * - repeat 2 times, 1 group of three stitches in space between two next groups of stitches, 1 group of two stitches in first corner space, join with slip stitch in top chain, then make another one slip stitch;

4 and 5 rounds: make same as 3rd round, but between corner we make another one group of three stitches. In 4th round - 2 groups between corners, in 5th round - 3 groups.
