lacy with dot square crochet pattern

February 13, 2014 by elisabeth andrée 11 Comments

below you will find the crochet pattern for the lacy with dot squares. they are easy to make, therefore the pattern is without further explanation.

i have used the american english crochet terms:

• ch = chain 
• ss = slip stitch
• dc = double crochet
• tr = treble

UPDATE

while crocheting these lacy squares, i believe – on second thouthts – the first 1-space of each row does not look pretty. glad to say that it is easy to improve: from row 3 end each row with a slip stitch in the 2nd chain in stead of the 3rd of the beginning chains. sorry for any inconvenience, i already adjusted the pattern.
