911 Square

[Becks]

In honor of the upcoming fifth anniversary of the attacks on September 11th, 2001; I designed this square.

 

front

 

and back.

I also made up a page on which is posted the graph to use as well as descriptions on stitching overtop to create the design.

This is the link....

I made it using a size H afghan hook. It turned out 9 X 8 inches even though it's 28 stitches high and wide. The tunisian stitch is taller than it is wide. I think if you single crochet stitched this, it should be a perfect square.

 

Once the square is completed, you stitch the details on.

 

It doesn't take very long to make, (this is what I did while Crochetville was down), and I hope some of you out there will make it too.

 

Please share the link with your friends.

 

We really must never forget.

Thank you.

[Becks]

Oh! I was so surprised to see this back at the top today!

 

I'm glad you-all like it!

 

I made my square into a small bag. I posted it in another thread last year with my other flag bags but I can post it here too since that was a while ago.

 

Here's the bag, front and back...

 

The back has a U.S. Betsy Ross flag on it. (Images are clickable for enlargement).
