  Step 1

  SQUARES
  Square A: Make 28 Passion Flower squares, using D for Rnds 1 and 2, B for Rnds 3–5, A for Rnds 6–8, and C for Rnd 9.
  Square B: Make 14 Passion Flower squares, using B for Rnds 1 and 2, D for Rnds 3–5, A for Rnds 6–8, and C for Rnd 9.

  Step 2

  ASSEMBLY
  Join squares together into a rectangle, 6 squares wide by 7 squares long, using the chain join method, following Assembly Diagram for placement. With RS facing, working through BL only and through double thickness, sc in each st across to join squares.

  Step 3

  EDGING
  2-dc cluster: [yo, pick up a loop in next dc, yo, draw through 2 lps on hook] twice, yo, draw yarn through all 3 lps on hook.
  3-dc cluster: [yo, pick up a loop in next dc, yo, draw through 2 lps on hook] 3 times, yo, draw yarn through all 4 lps on hook.
  Note: Count each joined corner and seam as a st when working Rnd 1 of Edging.
  RND 1: With RS facing, join C with a Sl st in first dc after top right-hand corner ch-2 sp, ch 4 (counts as dc, ch 1), sk next st, dc in next sc, [ch 1, sk next st, dc in next st] across to next corner, (dc, ch 3, dc) in corner ch-2 sp, rep from * around, join with a Sl st in 3rd ch of beg ch-4. Fasten off C—72 dc on top and bottom edges; 84 dc on side edges.
  RND 2: With RS facing, join B with a Sl st in first dc after corner ch-3 sp, ch 1, sc in first dc [sc in next ch-1 sp, sc in next dc] across to next corner, (sc, ch 1, sc) in corner ch-3 sp, rep from * around, join with a Sl st in first sc—145 sc on top and bottom edges; 169 sc on side edges.
  RND 3: Ch 3 (counts as dc), 2 dc in same st, *sk next 2 sc, 3 dc in next sc, [sk next 3 sc, 3 dc in next sc] across to within 4 sts of next corner ch-2 sp, sk next 2 sts, 3 dc in next sc, sk next sc, (2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc) in corner ch-3 sp, sk next sc**, 3 sc in next sc, rep from * around, ending last rep at **, join with a Sl st in top of beg ch-3—36 groups of 3 dc on top and bottom edges; 42 groupds of 3 dc on side edges.
  RND 4: Ch 3, 2-dc cluster over next 2 sts, [ch 3, 3-dc cluster over next 3 sts] across to 2 sts before next corner, sk next 2 dc, (3 dc, ch 3, 3 dc) in next ch-2 sp, ch 3, rep from * around, join with a Sl st to top of beg ch-3.
  RND 5: Ch 1, *[sc in top of cluster, 3 sc in next ch-3 sp] across to next corner, sc in each of next 3 dc, (2 sc, ch 3, 2 sc) in corner ch-3 space, sc in each of next 3 dc, rep from * around, join with a Sl st in first sc. Fasten off B.
  RND 6: With RS facing, join D with a Sl st in top right-hand corner ch-3 sp, ch 6 (counts as a dc, ch 2), dc in same space, *ch 1, sk next sc [dc in next sc, ch 1, sk next sc] across to next corner, (dc, ch 2, dc) in next ch-3 sp, ch 1, sk next sc, rep from * around, join with a Sl st to third ch of beg ch-6. Fasten off C.
  RND 7: With RS facing, join C with a Sl st in any corner ch-3 space, ch 1, *(2 sc, ch 3, 2 sc) in corner ch-3 sp, 2 sc in each ch-1 sp across to next corner, rep from * around, join with a Sl st in first sc. Fasten off.

  Step 4

  Passion Flower Square
  Skill Level: Intermediate
  Made with 3 colors: A, B, and C.
  Front Post Triple Crochet (FPtr): Yo (twice), insert hook from front
  to back to front again around the post of designated st, [yo, draw through 2 lps on hook] 3 times.
  Picot: Ch 3, sc in 3rd ch from hook.
  With A, make an adjustable loop (page 124).
  RND 1: Ch 1, 10 sc in ring, join with a Sl st in first sc, tighten ring. (10 sc)
  RND 2: (Ch 7, Sl st) in each sc around, ending with last Sl st in first Sl
  st. Fasten off A—10 ch-7 loops.
  RND 3: With RS facing, join B with a Sl st in any ch-7 loop, ch 1,
  starting in same loop, (sc, ch 5) in each loop around, join with a
  Sl st in first sc—10 ch-5 loops.
  RND 4: Ch 1, *(sc, ch 5, sc) in next ch-5 sp, ch-1, rep from * around,
  join with a Sl st in first sc.
  RND 5: Ch 1, *(sc, hdc, dc, tr, picot, tr, dc, hdc, sc) in next ch-5 sp, ch-1, rep from * around, join with a Sl st in first sc. Fasten off B—10 petals.
  RND 6: Working behind petals, with RS facing, join C with a Sl st in
  any ch-1 sp in Rnd 3, ch 8 (counts as dc, ch 5), *dc in next ch-1 sp in
  Rnd 3, ch 5, rep from * around, join with a Sl st in 3rd ch of beg
  ch-8—10 ch-5 sps.
  RND 7: Ch 3 (counts as dc here and throughout), dc in next ch-5 sp, sc in picot in previous rnd, 2 dc in same ch-5 sp, FPtr around the post of next dc, *2 dc in next ch-5 sp, sc in picot in previous rnd, 2 dc in same ch-5 sp, FPtr around post of next dc, rep from * around, join with Sl st in top of beg ch-3—10 sc; 40 dc; 10 FPtr; 60 sts total.
  RND 8: Ch 1, starting in same st, *sc in each of the next 15 sts, ch 3 (corner), rep from * around, join with a Sl st in first sc. Fasten off C.
  RND 9: With RS facing, join B with a Sl st in any corner ch-3 sp, ch 3 (counts as dc), (dc, ch 2, 2 dc) in same sp (corner), *dc in each of the next 2 sc, hdc in each of next 3 sc, sc in each next 5 sc, hdc in each of next 3 sc, dc in each of next 2 sc**, (2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc) in next corner
  ch-3 sp, rep from * around, ending last rep at **, join with a Sl st in
  top of beg ch-3. Fasten off D.
  Chain Join Method
  When the outer rounds of your squares have open spaces, you can join pieces with a stitch pattern that suits the spacing. This decorative join can be worked from either side. Place the pieces right sides together (or wrong sides together), aligning the stitches. Join yarn in one corner through both layers. *Chain 3, skip 3, single crochet through spaces of both layers, repeat from *.
