It’s week 23 of the Country Garden crochet along. This week we’re going to make the last square to fit between our trellis panels, and this time we’re making the Spoke square. This easy little square uses front post stitches to create the spokes which also add a raised texture to the square

If you would 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 just £5 from Ravelry

This pattern is written in US terms, but the UK translation are:

• sc (single crochet) = Double crochet
• fpsc (Front Post Single crochet) = Front Post Double crochet
• dc (double crochet) = treble crochet

If you would like to follow my colour scheme in either Paintbox Cotton Aran or Caron Simply Soft, you can find my colours here
