Most of my 12″ square patterns are completely worked in the round, but this design is worked back and forth in rows until the very end. Color changes work with the textures to create an almost endless variety of looks. Darker accent stripes really make the stitches pop! It may look complex but it’s really not too bad. You can always come by my Facebook group and ask questions if you get stuck.
This square is part of the Stashbusting CAL hosted by the Unraveled Mitten. So if you have some odds and ends of yarn that need using up, why not take a look over there. There will be a total of 20 squares once the CAL is finished. 🙂
I recommend #4 worsted weight yarn in 4 colors for this square, but it also looks perfectly lovely in 2 colors as you can see in the square on the left. Red Heart Super Saver, Red Heart With Love, or Caron One Pound are great for this project!
As a bonus, I have included some notes at the very bottom of this pattern for a plain version of the square using the wattle stitch which you see in the center. You will add the outside trim as normal.
Let’s get started, shall we?
Difficulty:
Intermediate
Materials Needed:
225 yds #4 Worsted weight Red Heart Super Saver yarn in Off White, Oatmeal, Cafe, and Bernat Super Value in Primrose, or 4 colors of your choice.
5mm hook, or hook needed to obtain gauge
Yarn needle
Scissors
Stitch markers
Stitches Used:
ch = chain
sl st = slip stitch
sc = single crochet
hdc = half double crochet
dc = double crochet
FPtr2tog = Front Post treble crochet 2 together
2dc cluster = dc2tog in same st
3dc cluster = dc3tog in same st
Additional Terms:
Puff st: yo, insert hook into st, pull up a loop 4 times, pull through 8 loops, yo pull through 2 loops.
Large puff st: yo, insert hook into st, pull up a loop 5 times, pull through 10 loops, yo pull through 2 loops.
Cluster shell: (3dc cluster, ch 2, 3dc cluster) in same st or sp
V stitch: (dc, ch 1, dc) in same stitch
Elizabeth Stitch: insert hook into st, yo, draw up a loop, yo, draw up a loop, yo pull through all 4 loops on hook. These stitches should be as tall as a sc stitch.
Back bar of sc (not to be confused with back loop) – Instructions: Look at the back of the stitch and locate the short bar that runs horizontal. Work all stitches for that section into this bar.
sp/sps = space/spaces
ch/chs = chain/chains
Prev = previous
Gauge:
Wattle stitch section at center of square should measure 3” tall by 9 ¾” wide by row 7.
Measurements:
12” x 12” when blocked
Additional notes:
-You’ll begin with the wattle stitch at the middle of the square, then transition into the puff stitches before finally moving into the lace and flowers at the ends. The second end will be worked similarly, starting just before the puff stitches and continuing out to the ends. The trim rounds are then added, followed by surface slip stitching near the rows of puff stitches.
-ch 1 at beginning of row is not counted as a stitch unless otherwise indicated.
-To cut down on the amount of ends you have to work in, carry your working yarn across the row and work the other color over the top of the carried yarn. You will want to do this on the rows with puff stitches, and on the rows with the shells and puffs.
-There are 2 bonus squares at the bottom of this post that will match the main square. You will need additional yarn beyond what I’ve listed at the top if you wish to complete them.
Memories of Yesterday (US Terms):
With Color A,
Leaving 18” tail (for minimizing the gap between the chain row and the first row of the Wattle Stitch a little later on in this pattern), Ch 39,
Row 1: working in 3rd ch from hook (place st marker in that chain), (sc, ch 1, dc), sk 2 sts, *(sc, ch 1, dc), sk 2 sts; repeat from * across, sc in final st of row, ch 1, turn. (12 wattle stitches, 1 sc)
Row 2: sk 2 sts, *(sc, ch 1, dc) in ch-1 sp, sk 2 sts; repeat from * across, omitting sk-2 in final repeat, sc in ch at end of row, ch 1, turn. (12 wattle stitches, 1 sc)
Repeat row 2 5 times.
Gauge should measure 3” tall by 9 ¾” wide at this point.
I will now include right side (RS) and wrong side (WS) notations at the beginning of each row. This will ensure that your texture all shows up on the correct side. You with the sharp eyes will have caught that this square pattern actually starts on the WS.
Row 8 (RS): sk st, sc in each remaining st and in each ch-sp across, sc in ch at end of row, ch 1, turn. (37)
Row 9 (WS): sc in each st across, ch 1, turn. (37)
Row 10 (RS): dc in first sc, join color B, carry color A under puff sts, puff st in next st, *ch 1, sk st, puff st in next st; repeat from * across, drop color B and fasten off, with color A, dc in final st of row, ch 1, turn. (18 puff sts,17 ch-1 sps, 2 dc)
Row 11 (WS): sc in each st and in each ch-sp across, ch 1, turn. (37)
Row 12 (RS): sc in each st across, ch 1, turn. (37)
Drop color A and fasten off.
Join color C,
Row 13 (WS): dc in first st, sk st, v-stitch in next st, *sk 3 sts, (3dc cluster, ch 2, 3dc cluster) in next st, sk 3 sts, v-stitch in next st; repeat from * across, when there are 2 sts left in row sk st, dc in final st of row, ch 1, turn. (5 v-stitches, 4 cluster shells, 2 dc)
Row 14 (RS): dc in first st, sk st, (3dc cluster, ch 2, 3dc cluster) in ch-1 sp, *sk 2 sts, v-stitch in ch-2 sp, sk 2 sts (3dc cluster, ch 2, 3dc cluster) in ch-1 sp; repeat from * across, when there are 2 sts left in row sk st, dc in final st of row, ch 1, turn. (5 cluster shells, 4 v-stitches, 2 dc)
In the following row you will need to place stitch markers in the first and last dc of the row as well as in each dc for the v-stitches you create. You should have a total of 12 marked stitches when you complete row 15. *You will be working in the marked v-stitches in row 17, but be skipping them in row 16.*
Row 15 (WS): dc in first st (place stitch marker), sk st, v-stitch in ch-2 sp, sk 2 sts, (3dc cluster, ch 2, 3dc cluster) in ch-1 sp, sk st, v-stitch in ch-2 sp; repeat from * across, when there are 2 sts left sk st, dc in final st of row (place stitch marker—you’ll need it in row 18), ch 1, turn. (5 v-stitches, 4 cluster shells, 2 dc)
Row 16 (RS): hdc in first st, with color B, carry color C under puffs and shells, ch 1, sk st, large puff in ch-1 sp, ch 1, *sk 2 sts, (hdc, 6 dc, hdc, ch 1) in ch-2 sp, sk 2 sts, large puff in ch-1 sp, ch 1; repeat from * across, when there are 2 sts left sk st, drop color B and fasten off, with color C, hdc in final st of row, ch 1, turn. (2 hdc, 5 large puffs, 4 large shells, 10 ch-1 sps)
Optional accent row: Using color D, sl st across large puff st, *sl st into ch-1 sp, sl st across each st in shell, sl st into ch-1 sp, sl st, across top of large puff st; repeat from * to end of row. Drop color D and fasten off.
The following row is worked behind row 16 in the tops of the marked dc sts that make up the V-stitches from row 15 (if you’re new to v-stitches they are made up of 2 dc with a ch-1 sp between). Your ch-2 will go behind the puff sts you made in row 16 and will be “sandwiched” between 2 sc sts (worked into the tops of those marked v-stitches).
Row 17 (WS): sk st, sc in next st, ch 2, sk puff st, sc in next st, *ch 5, sk shell, sc in next st, ch 2, sk puff st, sc in next st; repeat from * across, at end of row sk final st, ch 1, join with sl st to top of hdc from row 16, ch 1, turn. (10 sc, 4 ch-5 sps, 5 ch-2 sps)

(4 large cluster shells, 5 FPtr2tog, 4 sc)
Row 19 (WS): sc in next 2 sts, 2 dc in ch-2 sp from row 17, *ch 5, sk large cluster shell, 2 dc in ch-2 sp from row 17: repeat from * across, sc in final 2 sts (from row 18), ch 1, turn. (4 ch-5 sps, 10 dc, 4 sc)
Optional accent row: With right side facing you, drop color C, with color D, *working across shell: BPsc around top of 2dc cluster, ch 1] 5 times, BPsc around top of next 2dc cluster, sk st (this will be the FPtr2tog stitch); repeat from * across, once you come to the last 2dc cluster cut color D and fasten off. Continue row 20 with color C,
Note: If you have decided to add the accent row you will work through the ch-1 sps between each 2dc cluster and through the ch-1 sps of the accent row. This will join the two together into 1 layer.
Row 20 (RS): sc in first 2 sc sts (place st markers in both sts), insert hook under the center of FPtr2tog from row 18, above the puff st, and through the center of the 2 dc sts from row 19 and draw up a loop, with very tight tension sl st these rows together, note: this slip stitch serves to tie the flowers and the chains across the back together, sk st, *[(3 sc, sl st) in ch-1 sp between clusters] 5 times, sk st, insert hook under the center of FPtr2tog from row 18, above the puff st, and through the center of the 2 dc sts from row 19 and draw up a loop, with very tight tension sl st these rows together, sk st; rep from * across, omitting the sk st in final repeat, sc in final 2 sts of row (place stitch marker in both sts). (4 sc, 5 sl sts, 20 small petals)
Fasten off, and weave in end.
You will now essentially be repeating the design you made in rows 8-20 on the opposite side of your square.
With RS facing, rotate square and attach color A in same st where you placed your very first stitch marker,
Row 1 (RS): sc in next 37 sts, ch 1, turn. (37)
Sew gap together between this row and row 1 at the very beginning of your project with 18″ tail.

(5 cluster shells, 4 v-stitches, 2 dc)
In the following row you will need to place stitch markers in the first and last dc of the row as well as in each dc for the v-stitches you create. You should have a total of 12 marked stitches when you complete row 8. *You will be working in the marked v-stitches in row 11, but be skipping them in row 10.*

The following row is worked behind row 9 in the tops of the marked dc sts that make up the V-stitches from row 8 (if you’re new to v-stitches they are made up of 2 dc with a ch-1 sp between). Your ch-2 will go behind the puff sts you made in row 9 and will be “sandwiched” between 2 sc sts (worked into the tops of those marked v-stitches).
With color C,
Row 10 (WS): sk st, sc in next st, ch 2, sk puff st, sc in next st, *ch 5, sk shell, sc in next st, ch 2, sk puff st, sc in next st; repeat from * across, at end of row sk final st, ch 1, join with sl st to top of hdc from row 9, ch 1, turn. (10 sc, 4 ch-5 sps, 5 ch-2 sps)

Continue row 12 with color C.
Note: If you have decided to add the accent row you will work through the ch-1 sps between each 2dc cluster and through the ch-1 sps of the accent row. This will join the two together into 1 layer.
Row 12 (WS): sc in next 2 sts, 2 dc in ch-2 sp from row 9, *ch 5, sk shell, 2 dc in ch-2 sp from row 9; repeat from * across, 2 sc in final 2 sts of row 9, ch 1, turn. (4 ch-5 sps, 10 dc, 4 sc)
