Corner to Corner Single Crochet Entrelac Square:

This is a great square that can be worked in as many colors as you like. The more colors does mean more ends.

Before you move too far past this part of the post I will warn you that there are a lot of instructions. Don’t let that scare you. Once you get started you will see that there is a repeat but because you start your tier in a different spot I broke it out so that you wouldn’t get lost.

Get started on your square or go back and start the first square in our Wedding Blanket CAL. Can’t wait to see yours.
