Stitches Control

5.5 sts x 10 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Instructions

Make 33 chain sts with grey yarn and 11 rows of the main pattern. In 11 rows = 11 cm from the set-up row, divide sts in the following way:

• 20 rows of 11 sts with grey, beige, and white yarn;
• 20 rows of 11 sts with white, grey, and beige yarn;
• 20 rows of 11 sts with beige, white, and grey yarn.

When changing the color of yarn, make the last st inside the row with the new color and cross with the next st of the new color together on WS to prevent holes.

After finishing the motif with squares, make 11 rows with grey yarn and then create 1 more motif with squares. After that, make 6 rows with grey yarn for the outside, make 3 button-holes in 3 rows. For this, skip the 6^th, 17^th, and 28^th sts. For sides, fasten motifs with squares with 33 single crochets with grey yarn from both sides and make 5 rows of the main pattern.

Make seams, sew buttons, and insert the cushion.
