COLOR SEQUENCE
Make 35 squares as follows:
18 with C, B, and A
6 with A and D
6 with A and E
5 with A and F
SQUARE
With C (or A), ch 4, join. Ch 1.
Rnd 1 (RS) Work 8 scs in ring. Join. Ch 1.
Rnd 2 Sc in first sc. (Ch 1, sc in next sc) 7 times. Ch 1, join to beg sc. Ch 1.
Rnd 3 (Sc, ch 2, sc) in first sc. [Ch 1, (sc, ch 2, sc) in next sc] 7 times. Ch 1, join to
beg sc. Fasten off.
With B (D, F, or E) and WS facing, draw up a loop in any ch2-space. Ch 1.
Rnd 4 (WS) Sc in same space. (Ch 2, dc over next ch1-space in ch1-space of Rnd 2 below, ch
2*, sc in next ch2-space] 7 times. Repeat pattern to *. Join to beg sc. Ch 1, turn.
Rnd 5 (RS) *Sc in next ch2-space, shell in next ch2-space; repeat from * around. Join to beg
sc. Fasten off.
With C (A) and RS facing, draw up a loop in center dc of any shell. Ch 1.
Rnd 6 (RS) Sc in same dc. *Shell in next sc, sc in center dc of next shell; repeat from *
around, ending with shell in last sc. Join to beg sc. Fasten off.
With B (D, F, E) and RS facing, draw up a loop in center dc of any shell. Ch 1.
Rnd 7 (RS) Sc in same dc. *Ch 2, hdc in next sc, ch 2, sc in center dc of next shell, ch 2,
(2 dcs, tr, ch 2, tr, 2 dcs) in next sc, ch 2**, sc in center dc of next shell. Repeat from * around
ending at ** on last repeat. Join to beg sc. Ch 1, turn.
Rnd 8 (WS) 2 scs in next ch2-space, ch 1, skip 1 dc, sc in next dc, ch 1, skip next tr, (sc,
ch 2, sc) in corner ch2-space, ch 1, skip next tr, sc in next dc. Ch 1, skip next dc, 2 scs in next
ch2-space. [Ch 1, skip next st, 2 scs in next ch2-space] 3 times. Repeat from * around; ending on
last repeat with repeat between [ ] twice. Ch 1, skip last sc, join to beg sc. Fasten off.
Arrange squares in 5 columns and 7 rows, alternating colors beg with C center and arranging 3
colors other than B so that they are scattered and evenly spaced.
With A and RS facing, draw up a loop in first ch1-space to the left of any corner ch2-space. Ch
1.
Rnd 9 (Sc, ch 2, sc) in same space. Skipping over scs and working in ch1 and ch2-spaces
only, * (sc, ch 2, sc) in next ch1-space, [ch 1, (sc, ch 2, sc) in next ch1-space] 4 times, (sc, ch
2, sc) in next ch1-space, (sc, ch 4, sc) in corner ch2-space**. (Sc, ch 2, sc) in next ch1-space.
Repeat from * around ending at ** on last repeat. Join to beg sc. Fasten off.
To join ch2-spaces, continuing in pattern st, ch 1, drop loop, draw loop under to over through
opposite ch2-space, ch 1 and continue. To join corner ch4-spaces, ch 2, drop loop, draw loop under
to over through opposite ch4-space, ch 2 and continue. Where 4 corners meet: ch 2, drop loop, draw
loop under to over through opposite ch4-space, ch 1, drop loop, skip next ch4-space, draw loop under
to over through next ch4-space. Ch 2 and continue. When all squares are joined, work border.
BORDER
With A and RS facing, draw up a loop in any corner ch4-space. Ch 1.
Rnd 1 (RS) Work corner pattern: (sc, shell and sc) in corner-space. Shell in next ch2-space.
*Sc in next ch2-space (or sc dec through each of next 2 corner-spaces at seams). Shell in next
ch2-space. Repeat from * around, working corner pattern at each rem corner. Join last shell to beg
sc. Ch 1.
Rnd 2 (RS) Sc in first sc. *Ch 2, skip 2 dcs, (sc, ch 2, sc) in next dc. Ch 2, skip 2 dcs, sc
in next sc. Repeat from * around. Join last ch2 to beg sc. Fasten off.
