Weekly Crochet Square: Week 18

This week's square is a fun little stitch that creates a soft textured look on one side, and an untextured back side.
The stitch is easy. It has alternating rows of single crochet (sc) stitches in one row, and a combo of sc, chain (ch), and, half double crochet (hdc) stitches in the next. The texture is made with the sc row. You will work behind the ch 2 of the previous row (pushing the ch 2 forward) and make your sc stitches in the sc stitches of the previous row. Trust me... it isn't as confusing as I just made it sound. I promise! Just follow step by step, and you will pick it up right away.
