One of THE EASIEST tutorials for turning circles into squares - THANK YOU SO MUCH 💕💕

Thank you for watching 😊

[@AllanCaine]

As I watched your tutorial, the game of Twister flew into my mind. So, I thought of a blanket of rows of red, blue, yellow, and green dots on a uniform background. It wouldn't make such a bad looking blanket I think. Thank you Jayda for yet another perfect tutorial. I really liked it because it's fairly straightforward to crochet. Looking forward to Part 2. 🙂

Hi Jayda, I am making this in DK weight yarn (5 squares by 5 squares. Thank you for this wonderful pattern.

Wonderful! You might find a slightly smaller hook could help if you feel your stitches are a little thin or "gappy" and your squares might work up a bit smaller, but otherwise, the pattern works just perfectly with DK too 💗

[@joycepierson6454]

Thank you, Jayda. You are the best teacher! Your polka dot square is exactly what I wanted for my new temp blanket. I wanted a 4 inch so I did only 2 rounds and then your method for squaring and then a border of hdc or 2 rounds of sc for additional color/weather details. I tweaked it for those false stitches by using some standing stitches for joining new colors. Also will use your ladder stitch joining of my 70 squares (7 x 10). Thank you for inspiring me!
