Today I have a simple, flower square using one color of yarn! The flower in the middle can be a bit tricky, but once you get it down it’s super easy!
Depending on the type of yarn and hook used, on average this square will be around 6″ across.
What You Will Need:
• One color of any kind of yarn you like
• Crochet hook recommended for the yarn you choose
• Scissors
• Yarn Needle (I use a metal yarn needle, but any one will do)
Abbreviations:
• ch = chain
• ss = slip stitch
• sc = single crochet
• beg 2-tr cl = Beginning double treble crochet cluster
• yo = yarn over
• 3-tr cl = triple treble cluster
• 3-dc cl = triple double crochet cluster
Beginning double treble crochet cluster
Ch 4, *yo twice, insert hook into your next st, yo, draw yarn through, yo and draw through the first two loops on your hook, yo and draw through the next two loops on your hook*, repeat from *to* once more working in the same st, yo and draw through all 3 remaining loops on your hook.
Triple treble cluster
This is the same as the “beginning double treble crochet cluster”, but repeat from *to* twice more working on same st, yo and draw through the remaining 4 loops on your hook.
Triple double crochet cluster
*Yo, insert hook in next st, yo, draw yarn through, yo, draw yarn through first 2 loops on hook*, repeat from *to* twice more, yo, draw yarn through the 4 loops on your hook.

Fasten off and tie in ends.
