Edging the Hero and Villain Granny Squares

Image
Here goes ... Hero and Villain Squares - Edging each square. Note: I blocked my squares before this point to try and ensure an even and flat shape for each square. If you'd like to be even more precise you could block them after this step. 4mm hook In black... Start in bottom right corner. Dc inc, (16 dc, (dc inc, ch 2, dc inc, all in the same gap))x3, 16 dc, dc inc in the same gap as the first dc, ch 1, sl st to join. Finish off. Leave long threads for joining. I made a mistake at the start that you can see in this photo. If you're not careful you will put 17dc down the side where you were joining the circles and changing colours. Make sure this side has 16 dc and skip that joining space.
