You will need to have basic knowledge of how to make the tunisian simple stitch, single crochet stitch, how to read a graph and basic cross stitch.
I used lily sugar and cream black and green. I used a normal sized “I” or 5.5mm crochet hook. You don’t need a long hook, just one with no cover on it. Yarn and hook size is up to you. Gauge is irrelevant for this project.
Chain 19 so you have 19 loops on your hook. TSS a total of 16 rows. Make 2 squares. I used this alien graph I found on Pinterest.
I left 2 rows before and after the cross stitch on both the top and bottom and 4 vertical bars, not counting the first and last “chain” on both sides.
I single crocheted around the edges putting 2 sc in the last loop and first loop of each side to give the corners a rounded look. The other loops have 1 stitch.
I’m not very good with written instructions, so if you have trouble understanding what I’m trying to say you can watch my YouTube Video where I describe what I’m trying to say here. 👽
