The Pattern
For this square you will need a 4.5mm hook
Start by making a foundation chain of 31
Row 1. In the 2nd chain from your hook make a sc (the turning chain does NOT count as a stitch). Next make a herringbone single crochet (hsc) – insert your hook into the side loop of the previous stitch,
then through the next chain. Yarn over and pull through all 3 loops on your hook.
Make a hsc in each stitch across – 30 stitches
Turn
Row 2. In this row all stitches will be made from the back.
Chain 1. Insert your hook into the the first chain from back to front and finish as a sc.
Make a hsc in the next stitch by inserting your hook into the side loop of the previous stitch at the back
then insert your hook from front to back in the next stitch.
Yarn over and pull through all 3 loops. Repeat for each stitch across – 30 stitches
Turn
Row 3. Chain 1 and make a single crochet in the first stitch. Next make a herringbone single crochet (hsc) – insert your hook into the side loop of the previous stitch, then through the next stitch. Yarn over and pull through all 3 loops on your hook.
Make a hsc in each stitch across – 30 stitches
Turn
Rows 4 – 20. Repeat rows 2 and 3 ending in a repeat of row 2.
The Border
Sc in each stitch across the top and bottom.
For the sides alternate between 2 sc and 1 sc in the sides of each row.
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
You can now add the interlocking border, joining this weeks square to last weeks as you join. You can see how to do this here
