And here is my closing ceremony/DD naptime square.

The pattern was adapted from this one I found through Ravelry. I can't remember exactly how I changed it but I'm pretty sure all I did was added an extra two rounds of (UK) trebles and one final dc round in blue. Possibly.

And thank you all Blush

Somersaults - is that pattern available on the tinternet? It's lovely.

Love the grannysquare Dances, I'm still not entirely confident enough for all that colour changing malarkey.

Primmy, that's gorgeous, and thank you for squaring it! I just dealt with one in the same pattern that wasn't, closest I've ever come to swearing on a blanket project Blush

(I'm a very sweary person but it seems inappropriate on these somehow)

My latest square. It's a ripple pattern, and I crocheted in the gaps to make it more square. I need to check with Pistey to see if it's square enough!

It's the 'through one' that appears to be odd. Probably made up is strangely comforting! Grin

"I'm sure that when my Nan taught me to crochet, many moons ago, the basic stitch she taught me was yo, through st, yo, back, yo, through 1, yo, through 2, yo, through 2"

i think she made that up...

it sounds like a half double treble...

it gets even more complicated!!

in US usage, the treble is our double treble -
crochet.about.com/library/weekly/aa101897.htm

and the US double treble is our triple treble (same link)



ahhh!!!!
your yo once then through and once is a half either treble or something else
i've jsut got to post this so i can go back to the previous page and check your description

let me think....

trible treble, yo twice, then through, then yo, through, loop off, yo, through, loop off until you've finished all the loops

double treble, is how your granny did it.

I might have to google now Confused

But I thought the double treble and treble treble had more than one yo right at the start?

Soooooo confused Confused

the one your granny taught you is a double treble, and the extended treble is the triple treble (or treble treble)
