I was figuring out granny square crochet. It is very intriguing to start with a circle and end with a square. I was able to whip up a simple pattern. I made the pink center and next rounds are in white and blue.
Look at the baby pink petals which forms a circle. The petals are made with 3 dc's together. I need to make them in to squares to make something. Did I do a good job? I think so!
Then I went on with doing another round of blue and decided to join them while make the squares.
What I think is, by the end of the weekend, I will whip up something interesting.
The pattern for the granny square is like this: chain 6. slip stich to form a circle. Make 2 chains, make 2 dc together. Chain 2. 3 dc together, chain 3. Do this to make 8 petals all together. Then join with a slip stitch. Fasten off. With white yarn, make 3 chains in any 2 chain space(Count as first dc). Make 2dc in the same space. Chain 3, and make make 3 more dc in the same space. Chain 2, skip two petals of round 1 and make another 3 dc chain3 , 3dc on the chain 2 space. Repeat it to make 4 groups of (3dc, chain3, 3dc). Now we have a square.
