Good morning, Patty. No, if you'll click on the original link in the beginning post (the flat braid join) just scroll down to the end of that page... the square everyone is inquiring about and wanting to know how it's made is part of a mystery afghan crochet-along. The links for ALL the squares are there...the links are called "Variations on a Theme Square #___." ... and has the pattern for each square.
We have Susan2014 to thank for providing the link for the flat braid joining of the squares and thus to all the links (actually past posts in the blog - Gourmet Crochet - and access to all the squares used in the mystery afghan and how to complete it! Thanks, Susan2014!
The squares are approximately 6 to 7 inches in size. And that's why I referenced and mentioned knowing the multiples of a pattern (basic crochet knowledge)... because knowing the multiples you can make the squares larger or smaller as you like!
I don't make afghans or any cold weather crochet items because I have no need for cold weather blankets, afghans or clothing...HOWEVER, this is an afghan I will definitely make because the squares are so different from traditional granny's! I'll make it using Simply Soft instead of heavyweight yarn! It's on my to-do list.Freedom is not the right to do as you please, but the liberty to do as you ought!

Patty,
go all the way down the page to the blog archive and look for the one marked Square #2. It is the right one, I just found it. to make this particular square, you would have to size it down smaller and then outline it according to the pattern here. It isn't hard to find, hope you can do it.
Yours, Patt.
