FO=Fasten Off
FPDC=Front post double crochet
FPHC=Front post half double crochet
BEG Corner=Ch3, DC, ch2, 2dc in corner ch2 sp.
With flower color (if using two colors)
Ch4 join to form a ring
Rnd 1: Ch3 and work 11 dc in ring. Join in 3rd ch of beg ch3. (12)
Rnd 2: Ch3, DC in same st, ch1 (FPDC, CH1, 2DC, CH1) 5 times. FPDC in one, Ch1 and join.
Rnd 3: Ch3, 2dc in same st, 3DC in next st (SS in ch1 sp, FPDC in fpdc, SS in next ch1 sp, 3DC in next 2 sts.) 5 times. SS in ch1 sp. FPDC in next fpdc, SS in next ch1 sp and join in top of beg ch3.

Ok remember the round 2 instructions? you were doing one fpdc, and then two dc together.........well in round 4, you are skipping the fpdc of round 2, but doing the fpdc around the post of the two that were done together. Make sense?

Thanks so much ladies!!
You are very talented. Thank you so much for sharing with beginners like me. My daughters love your patterns. We are using some of your squares for purses.
Thanks again1
This pattern is so lovely. Thanks so much for posting it for us to use. Right now I am attempting to follow your pattern. I figured out that "FO" must mean "flip over", but I cannot figure out what "IN" means. At first I thought you meant "Increase", but that doesn't make sense to me in this context. Can you explain what you meant? Also, did you mean for round 1 to be joined at the end?
Thanks in advance for the assistance and the inspiring pattern.
Sher-E: I corrected the pattern to include the abbreviation of FO, which means to Fasten off the yarn. IN is just in, meaning IN the next space work the pattern directions. I capitalized it hoping to make it easier to see that I mean in the next sp or next st. Sorry about that.
Like the pattern! You didn't say how much green you used! Do you know how much?
No I did not keep track of the amount of yarn I used. I usually don't. I can tell you it was not very much at all, and I know that doesn't help much.
I'm sooooo making a baby blanget out of these :)
I bet the baby blanket would be gorgeous. I would love to see it when you are done with it.
what an easy and very lovely square I love that the flower is incorporate into the pattern like you have it. So simple...thank you!
I will be using this square in the afghan I am making for my Granddaughter. Thank-you for sharing.
