STITCHES :

• Magic Ring : Crocheting a magic ring, also known as a magic circle or adjustable ring, is a technique used to start a round crochet project with a tight center that can be easily adjusted to fit the size needed for your project. To make a magic ring, you will make a loop with your yarn, insert your crochet hook into the center of the loop, make your first stitch, and continue making stitches until you have the required number for your first round. Then, tighten the center of the ring and secure it with a knot. This technique is commonly used in amigurumi and hats.
• Chain Stitches (Ch Sts ) : To create a chain stitch, you’ll need a crochet hook and some yarn. Start by looping the yarn around the crochet hook. Hold the loop in place with your finger and then pull the yarn through the loop. This creates a new loop on the hook. Again, hold the new loop in place and pull the yarn through the new loop. Keep repeating this process until you have the desired number of chain stitches.
• Double Crochet (dc ) : Yarn over the hook, insert the hook into the specified stitch.Yarn over the hook again, draw the yarn through the st, so there are 3 loops on the hook. Yarn over the hook again draw it through 2 loops, so there are 2 loops on the hook. Yarn over the hook, draw it through the final 2 loops.

By the end of the tutorial, you’ll have a stunning circle in a square motif that you can use in a variety of projects. Let’s get started!

Steps

Step 1: Round 1

To start, make a magic ring and chain 3, which counts as a double crochet and a chain 1. Then, double crochet into the magic ring and chain 1. Repeat this pattern of double crochet and chain 1 11 more times. Join with a slip stitch to the second chain of the initial chain 3. This will give you 12 double crochet stitches and 12 chain 1 spaces.

Step 2: Round 2

Join a new color to any chain 1 space from the round below. Chain 2, which counts as a double crochet, then double crochet into the same space and chain 1. Repeat this pattern of 2 double crochets and 1 chain in each chain 1 space from the round below. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the initial chain 2. This will give you 12 groups of 2 double crochets and 12 chain 1 spaces.

Step 3: Round 3

Join a new color to any chain 1 space from the round below. Chain 2, then make 2 double crochets into the same space and chain 1. Repeat this pattern of 3 double crochets and 1 chain in each chain 1 space from the round below. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the initial chain 2. This will give you 12 groups of 3 double crochets and 12 chain 1 spaces.

Step 4: Round 4

Join a new color to any chain 1 space from the round below. Chain 2, then make 3 double crochets into the same space and chain 1. Repeat this pattern of 4 double crochets and 1 chain in each chain 1 space from the round below. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the initial chain 2. This will give you 12 groups of 4 double crochets and 12 chain 1 spaces.

Step 5: Round 5

Join a new color to any chain 1 space from the round below. Chain 2, then make 4 double crochets into the same space and chain 1. Repeat this pattern of 5 double crochets and 1 chain in each chain 1 space from the round below. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the initial chain 2. This will give you 12 groups of 5 double crochets and 12 chain 1 spaces.

Step 6: Round 6

Join a new color to any chain 1 space from the round below. This round will turn your circle into a square. To join as you go, on the sides, substitute out the chain 1 for a slip stitch. Chain 2, then make 3 double crochets into the same space and chain 1. Make 4 double crochets and chain 1 into the next chain 1 space (side). Make 4 treble crochets, chain 3, 4 treble crochets, and chain 1 into the next chain 1 space (corner).

Repeat this pattern of 4 double crochets and 1
