The pattern shows best when using at least 2 colours, and you can carry the yarn up the side to pick up at the next colour change instead of cutting off and rejoining.

You can find the links for all the squares in the crochet along here. The free pattern is below, but if you’d like the ad free printable version, it is available either as part of my Lifetime Pattern Pass, or you can purchase it on its own for £5 from Ravelry

The Border

Make a sc in each stitch across the top and bottom. For the sides, make 1 sc in the side of each row ending with a sc, and make 2 sc in the sides of each row ending with a dc.

You should have 30 sc down each side, plus an extra stitch in each corner for the turn. This will make your stitch count as 32 stitches across each side and 124 stitches total (remember the extra stitch corner stitch is counted in the stitch count for both sides)

You have now finished your square and join and you can tie off and weave in the ends
