Granny square challenge week 2

So we`re off and our first four squares are ready.

Time for the next four.

We will make the grandma all squares

a pattern from the wonderful Michelle

from The Royal Sisters.

She has a very nice blog about crochet

and some great tutorials.

This time a circle within the square.

The tutorial is very clear with pictures.

I learned a new way to start a new color 

and work your way to the next space.

( I used to attach my new color in the closing slip stitch

and turn my square then continue on the wrong side).

Also new to me was to work over to secure 

I found some tutorials on how it works.

Here, here and here .

I applied it by these squares

but as mentioned before it`s not as secure 

as weaving in your ends.

So I`m not sure if I`m going to use it 

on squares again.

It`s probably better for crocheting stripes.

NOTE!

I made 4 rounds for the circle instead of three,

3 rounds for the square part instead of two.

To make the squares the same size as the ones from last week. 

I made 2 chains instead of 3 in the corners.

Good luck and have fun.

Dutch translation:

ch = chain =  losse

sl st =  slip stitch = halve vaste

tr = treble = stokje

work over to secure = haak over de draden om af te hechten

ws = wrong side = verkeerde kant

dc= double crochet = vaste

Er is hier met Britse termen gewerkt vandaar dat de vertaling afwijkt

 van de vorige squares, deze waren in Amerikaanse termen.
