Sirkel i kvadrat… Circle in a square...

Her skal eg prøve å skrive ned ei oppskrift. Det finst sikkert mange forskjellige måtar å lage bestemorruter som dette, men her er min metode. Håper de gir beskjed dersom noko er vanskeleg å skjøne. (Heklespråket er lettare å lese enn å skrive ned… )
I will try to translate this to English. Please let me know if something is difficult to understand. I’m using US terminology.
ch = chain, st = stitch, ss = slip stitch, dc = double crochet
(Follow the link to pages explaining the stitches.)
2009_06030071 2009_06030072
Start: Hekle 5 lm, samle til ein ring m 1 kjm i første lm.
Start: make 5 ch, join with ss into a ring.
2009_06030074
1. runde: 4 lm (=1 st,1 lm), 1 st + 1 lm 11 g. Slutt m 1 kjm i 3. lm. Til saman 12 st.
1st round: 4ch (=1dc,1ch), 1dc + 1ch 11 times. Join with ss in 3rd ch. 12 dc.
2009_06040081 2009_06030076
2. runde: Start i ei av lm-buene. 3 lm (=1 stav), 1 st, 1 lm, *2 st, 1 lm* i resten av lm-buene. Slutt m 1 kjm i 3. lm. Til saman 12 grupper m 2 st.
2nd round: Start in one of the ch spaces. 3 ch (= 1dc), 1dc, 1ch, *2dc, 1ch* in the remaining ch spaces. Join with ss in 3rd ch. 12 groups of 2 dc.
2009_06030077 2009_06030078
3. runde: Start i ei av lm-buene. 3 lm (=1 st)+ 2 st i lmb, 1 lm, *3 st,1 lm* i resten av lm-buene. Slutt m 1 kjm i 3. lm. Til saman 12 grupper m 3 st.
3rd round: Start in one of the ch spaces. 3 ch (= 1dc), 2dc in ch space, 1ch, *3dc, 1ch* in the remaining ch spaces. Join with ss in 3rd ch. 12 groups of 3 dc.
2009_06030081 2009_06030084
2009_06030085 2009_06030086
4. runde: Start i ei lm-bue. 4 lm (=1 dst), 1 dst, 3 lm, 2 dst, (=1. hjørne), *1 lm, (2 st, 1 lm, 2 st) i neste lm-bue, 1 lm, (2 st, 1 lm, 2 st) i neste lm-bue, 1 lm, 2 dst, 3 lm, 2 dts, (=2. hjørne)**, gjenta * til ** 2 gonger, 1 lm, (2 st, 1 lm, 2 st) i dei neste to lm-buene, 1 lm, slutt med 1 kjm i 4. lm.
4th round: Start in one of the ch spaces. 4ch (= 1 tr), 1tr, 3ch, 2tr, (=1st corner), *1ch, (2dc,1ch,2dc) in next ch space, 1ch, (2dc,1ch,2dc) in next ch space, 1ch, (2tr, 3ch, 2tr) (=2nd corner)**, repeat * to ** 2 times, 1ch, (2dc, 1ch, 2dc) inthe next two ch spaces, 1ch. Join with ss to 4th ch.
Eg likar samlebandsmetoden, så eg heklar opp ein haug med sirklar før eg tar siste runda.
I like the assemblyline method so I prefer to make a lot of circles before I start the 4th round.
2009_06030080
Eg heklar firkantane saman på siste runda. Prøver å vise det her. Moonstitches har også ei veldig fin forklaring på denne metoden. (Ho heklar saman sekskantar, men prinsippet er det same).
I join the squares in the last round, like I show here. Moonstitches have a great tutorial for joining hexagons. It’s mostly the same. The squares are joined together in the corners and at two places on the sides.
2009_06030087
Start i eit hjørne. Hekle 2 dst, 1. lm, 2. lm heklast gjennom hjørnebua på forrige firkant, hekle 3. lm vanleg.
Start in a corner. Crochet 2tr, 1ch,next ch through the corner of the other square, 1ch, 2tr. (The first corner is done)
2009_060300882009_06030089
På sidene heklast lm mellom st saman med forrige firkant.
Side: 1ch,(2dc, 1ch through 1ch on other square, 2dc), 1ch (2dc, 1ch through 1ch on other square, 2dc), 1ch
2009_06030090 2009_06030091
Neste hjørne: Hekle første lm, andre lm heklast saman med firkanten til høgre, tredje lm heklast saman med firkanten rett over (sjå på bildet),
Next corner (where you will join square to the square to the right and the one above): 2tr, 1ch, 1ch through corner of square to the right, 1 ch through corner of the square above, 2 tr.
2009_06030093
På langsida heklast lm mellom stavane saman. I neste hjørne hekle 1 lm, 2. lm heklast gjennom hjørnet i ruta over (sjå bildet). Hekle resten som vanleg.
Do the next side as the first. In the next corner you crochet 1 ch through the corner of the square above. Finish the round as in pattern.

Var dette forståeleg? Håpar det :)
Hope you understand this:)

  4. Kjempefin forklaring - likte særlig den sammenheklingen. Det ble så lett og luftig. Tror nesten jeg må prøve disse rutene en gang. Det blir et utrolig lekkert teppe.

  5. Flott forklaring. Særlig det med sammenhekling på siste-runden har jeg sansen for. Slik har lett for å bli liggende...

  13. Kjempeflott forklaring på sammenhekling! Tusen takk! Kanskje jeg klarer å få montert mitt lappeteppe tilslutt!!

  14. åh, perfekt! jeg har lurt på hvordan jeg skal hekle rutene sammen en stund. dette blir jo så mye finere enn å sy dem sammen. tusen takk!!

    SvarSlett
  15. Så fine lapper! Sånne må jeg prøve meg på!
    Veldig kjekt med god forklaring;-)

    Ha en fin dag!

    SvarSlett
  16. men har ikke satt deg opp som oppskrift. Den et litt mangelfull for å bli godkjent som det. Jeg skjønte ikke helt oppskriften i monteringen (lm heklast saman med firkanten til høgre, 3. lm heklast saman med firkanten over). Hva menes med hekles sammen? Skal jeg ta kroken ut av masken og putte kroken inn i hjørnet på firkanten den skal monteres sammen med?? Ikke så viktig nå, jeg fant en annen oppskrift, men det ble ikke like fint som din, da :o)
    Jeg er hekleamatør, så det er sikkert bare jeg som er treg
    Ha en fin kveld videre!

  17. Ferdig :o) Takk for hjelpen!

  25. been a lot of time looking for those explanations. I wanted to know how to join granny squares without sewing them together. I almost get it on my own but those and the tutorial are the best instructions i have found till this moment. Thank you. You make me write the first comment of mi life. will let you know if i at last can finish project. kisses

    SvarSlett
  26. fantastic work just love it, have tried out a few of these and I can get the first three rounds done and the fourth but do not know how to start to join them. Do i begin with a square and a circle or two squares and a circle, am confused

    SvarSlett
  27. Start by making one square. Then join a new circle to that square.

    SvarSlett
  28. Thanks a lot for your great tutorial.

  29. Yeah!! Thank you so much for a lovely tutorial! I am beginning crochet and love learning any new way to add colour to my life!! Loving this and trying it as this very moment. Please forgive the novice, but just wondering about the 4th round where it says "1tr"; did you mean us double like before? Or is it a bigger stitch? I'll just try and see where I go... Thanks again for showing this :-D

    SvarSlett
  43. This looks great and yummy! It made me want to go back to crocheting. One question. How big is the blanket supposed to be? And what size of the crochet hook would I need?

    SvarSlett
  44. I used 4 mm crochet for this. You could make it as big as you want. My blanket is 110 x 150 cm, big enough for an after dinner nap on the sofa...

    SvarSlett
  45. I'm having a bit of difficulty understanding the instructions. I haven't crocheted for so long plus the terminology is completely foreign to me since I used to crochet in Russia. Anyway, can you please explain to me how to read the 1st round?

    SvarSlett
  49. Thank you so much for the very clear instructions. I'd started the similar circle-in-a-square when I found your pattern, and in the end I made a hybrid circle-flowers in the square-snow motif:)! I used it for a quick project, but I'm in love with the way your blanket looks, and will have to make one myself soon.

    SvarSlett
  50. I love this blanket!... and I want to make one :) How many skeins of sport weight white yarn did you need?
    Thank you for sharing your pattern

    SvarSlett
  51. I never really counted how many balls of white I used - had to buy more in the process.
    But I've figured out that maybe (with the edging) half of the yarn I used was white. Then I have used 600 grams of the white yarn. My blanket has 192 squares.

  56. mange mange tak for den gode vejledning! jeg er netop gået igang med dette, men jeg har lige et spørgsmål. Hvordan får du dit tæppe til at blive så pænt og fladt ? jeg synes mit bliver så buet (ligesom den første firkant du har vist her).
    Jeg er ny udi hækling, så jeg er ikke helt med på hvordan man gør det helt fladt ;)
    tak !:)
    (bare sig hvis jeg skal skrive det på engelsk i stedet)

    SvarSlett
  57. Hvis du gjer som i oppskrifta skal det bli flatt etterkvart. Firkantane vil strekke på hverdanre. Eg damper mitt teppe til slutt (med strykejern og vått klede). Det hjelper også. Håper du forstår :)

    SvarSlett

  64. Takk for god inspirasjon. Jeg har heklet et oldemorteppe, men din sammehekling. Når du helker sirkel i kvadrat, hvor gjør du av endene underveis? Syr du dem fast eller hekler du de inn noe sted? Solveig Iversen

    SvarSlett
  65. Eg syr inn endane etterkvart. Eg synest ikkje det blir fint å hekle dei inn når mønsteret har hopp slik som det er i sirklane. Passar også på å ta nokre runder med trådfesting undervegs i heklinga, slik at det ikkje er 10 000 endar å feste til slutt...

    Nydelig teppe, og takk for at du deler oppskrift!

    Eg har eit spm. korleis får du så tydelige stjerner mellom rutene?
    Der du hekler rutene inn i kvarandre, stramer du ekstra der, eller held du same fastheten over alt?

    SvarSlett
  91. Stjernene kom automatisk når eg hekla rutene saman. Ekstra bonus! Eg heklar med ca samme fastheit heile vegen, passar berre på at ikkje løkkene vert altfor store i hjørna.

  101. I used DK / Sport weight yarn and 4 mm hook. My squares measures 8.5 cm.

    See more details on the blanket's Ravelry page or the post about the finished blanket.

    SvarSlett
  102. Wow there are LOTS of comments, I had to scroll down and down! It is a beautiful pattern, thanks so much for sharing and for the effort in preparing the visual tutorial; it makes it SO much easier. I have linked to this on my blog for a granny a day project that I am doing, I hope that was ok.

    SvarSlett
  103. This is my first blanket and I LOVE the pattern. I spent a while researching and when I found this one, I knew it was it :) Since I haven't done this before, I'm curious about the finishing part. Do you block each square separately and then attach them or do you block the entire blanket when it's done? Thanks!

    SvarSlett
  104. I do not block each square separately. When the hole blanket is done I use a wet cloth and my iron to press out any bumps etc.

    SvarSlett
  105. Con tu permiso voy a copiar la idea. Es súper linda esta manta... y el paso a paso está clarísimo...

    What a wonderful pattern, thank you sooooo much for translating into English.
    Its a wonderfully fast pattern and quite economical with the yarn. I'm 11 squares into my current project but will make this next and blog link back to you - you are a VERY kind person and I wish you every success!

    SvarSlett
  107. This is such a wonderful blanket, I'd love to be able to make it! I'm a little confused about the first round though when it comes to making the flowers, do you think you could phrase it differently? I'm not sure what you mean by 4ch (=1dc,1ch), 1dc + 1ch 11 times. Join with ss in 3rd ch. 12 dc. First of all, how is 4 chain (=1dc, 1ch)? And do you then alternate that with the 1dc +1ch or do you just carry on that way? Sorry if I'm not clear :/ I'm a beginner and I'm still figuring things out! Any advice would be fantastic, I'd love to make this!

    SvarSlett
  108. Hello Emma! I'll try to explain it better to you. :)
    The point of the first round is to make 12 dc with 1 ch spaces in between. But since you are starting at the bottom, the first dc will have to be 3 ch (to get up to the height of the other dc you will be making. Add to the 3 ch the 1 ch space - and you have 4 ch = 1dc+1ch. The rest of the round you'll only make 1dc + 1ch.
    Is that clearer?

  109. Hi Solveig! Ahh! I think so! So to begin with it's 3 ch into the space, *then* 1dc + 1ch and carry on from there? Is that right?

  110. Ok, just an update - I *totally* get what you mean now! I don't know how I couldn't see it before. 4 chain stitches into the space is the same as 1dc+1ch to start with, then after you've got that you can carry on with the 1dc+1ch as you now have the height. I tried it some other way before I realised this and it came out looking a bit wonky, but after I tried it the way you meant it it came out great! I now have one perfect circle and one wonky one :P

    Thanks Solveig, for both your help and for this beautiful pattern! I can't wait to see how my blanket turns out :)

  111. Thanks very much (from Canada) for sharing this. I recently learned how to crochet, just to make this lovely blanket! Your instructions are very clear, and easy to follow. I'm almost halfway done the 4th round, and I love how it's turning out.
