    Hope you like, I'm planning plain squares as well, then going to stitch them all together. It's mum and dads Christmas pressie x

    but yours look so lovely and colourful, well done. Did you do 3,2,3 in the corners and ch1 along the straights? I've watched so many variations but I decided this was the easiest to remember.

    That's what I do! Agree: definitely the easiest to remember. You can granny-square on auto-pilot with that set up. ;)

    I am trying to work that out? I would be good if I actually understood the pattern rather than constanty following the instructions.

    I've decided my brain has started to slow down in my middle age:eek:
