Special Stitch (optional) FDC – Foundation Double Crochet

Ch3, yo and insert hook into third chain from hook, pull up a loop (3 loops on hook). *Yo and pull through 1 loop (this creates the base stitch (chain) for the next fdc), you should still have 3 loops on your hook. Now complete a dc stitch (yo and pull through 2 loops, yo and pull through 2 loops again to complete the dc stitch). To start the next stitch, yo and insert hook into the ‘v’ of the base stitch, yo and pull up a loop (3 loops on hook), yo and pull through 1 loop on hook (chain created), now complete a dc stitch as before. Continue this sequence for the number of stitches in your desired width. 

THE CHAIN 3 at the beginning of your Foundation Row counts like this: 1 chain is the chain stitch and the other two chains are your first DC of Row 1.

Bordering the Emoji Block

Rnd 1: Ch1 & turn. Make 2 sc into the first st (mark the first sc, this is your corner), then continue working 1sc into each st across the top of your block until the last st – make 2sc into this last st (mark the second st of this increase – this is a corner). You should have 51 sc between your two marked corner stitches.

Next, you’ll go down the side of your block, making 2sc around each dc post (or row) down the side (you should have 56 sc along the side after your marker corner.

Now you’ll do 2sc into the first stitch (into the ch/FDC) along the bottom of the block (mark the first st of this increase – this is a corner). Now sc in each stitch across to the last chain/FDC where you’ll do another 2sc (mark the second st of this increase – this is a corner). You should have 51 sc sts between your marked corners.

Finish by working 2sc into each row/dc post along the last side (56 sts). Join with a slst to your first sc – which should be marked as a corner.

You should have blocks with 51 sc along the top and bottom, 56 sc along the left/right sides and 1 sc in each corner.
