Free Crochet Pattern

Granny Square Kerchief Free Crochet Pattern

 Remember these ?

I sure do.
This was the very first pattern I learned and I made several back in the day.  As all fashion does, they are back in style and I'm busy making them for everyone.
Great way to use up odd balls of yarn.
The more color, the better some say !
Easy, easy pattern


Size J crochet hook

Ch 4
Row 1: 2 dc's, ch 2, 2 dc's in 4th ch from hook, ch 3, turn
Row 2: 2 dc's in 1st dc of previous row (same st as ch 3), ch 1,  (3 dc's, ch 2, 3 dc's, ch 1) in ch 2 space (corner) , 2 dc's in top of ch 3 from previous row. ch 3, turn.
Row 3: 2 dc's in same st as ch 3, ch 1, 3 dc's in next ch 1 space, ch 1 ,(3 dc's, ch 2, 3dc's, ch 1) in ch 2 space (corner), 2 dc's in top of ch 3 from previous row. Ch 3, turn.

Just continue this pattern until piece measures the size you need to fit around your head.
I do 11 Rounds, plus Shell finish
You can sc around outside to give it a more finished look, I used a shell pattern.
Shell Pattern:  5 dc's in each ch 1 sp, sc on top of middle dc of previous row. 7 dc's at the corner. Or just leave it.
For Ties: Attach yarn at corner and ch 50, fasten off. Repeat for other side.
Weave in all ends
That's It !! Easy

I added a New Puppy to my Collection

I designed a Dachshund Crochet Pattern awhile back and have loved the response I have gotten on it.  I only made up a couple at the time I was designing them, but a custom order was submitted and here he is...
I think I'll call him Fred, I don't know why. Just sounds good at the moment.
I love making up gifts for people, but I am starting to think I will no longer do custom orders on my Etsy shop.  I have had too many people ask me do something and then they don't buy it and never get back in touch with me to tell me why.  Poor little guy was refused because he was the wrong color.  The person that requested him didn't tell me that they wanted a specific color! I know, I should have asked, bad on my part.  I'm not sure I want to sell him or not now, he is too cute.
At least this one won't eat and poop!
