Windmill Granny Square by Elizzza13
This is an easy pattern to follow and since the majority of it is chains, it takes far less time to do. The longest portion is doing the edging, making the square itself takes no time at all. It is a large square-I think larger than any we have done up to this point-so I am thinking this may have to be a center piece, at least for my afghans.
My Notes:
Starting with the end of Round 3 you DO NOT join, you just keep working each round until the end. I had a little trouble with the pattern at first because I was listening to the video instead of watching and I was joining my rounds and could not figure out why it looked so off.
Round 12, when you do 2 single crochets in the double crochets in the corner, I put them in the first to as you come to them and the last 2 as you leave the corner, it gives it a more uniform look that way.
Also this is a bit of a yarn eater. It doesn't look it but it ate up quite a bit of yarn. So be mindful as you choose your yarn.
And don't get discouraged if your square looks slightly wonky as you are working it in the earlier rounds. It will come together, I promise!
As you can see, I did this one in a solid color.
