Measure your square here, mine measured about 11 ½” so I did a round 11 of SC which brought it to a 12” square.  Your size will depend on the yarn you choose, your hook preference, and your tension.  Adjust Round 11 as needed with a SC or HDC.  You might not even need a round 11.  


~June  2011 Square~ is from my, “12 Squares in Time” year long series on my blog.  If you like this square, please visit my blog to see more of the monthly squares.  There is also a more “closed”  version of this square.
