Square

The rows are crocheted alternately from the 1st and 2nd ball. Do not cut the yarn. Start the first square from the 1st ball, the 2nd square from the 2nd ball, the 3rd square from the 1st ball….. I placed the squares one behind the other and did not mix them. After crocheting 80 pieces, I placed them neatly in order on the ground and only then crocheted them together. You can choose an interesting layout according to your taste.
