The sample squares can be variety of stitches and crochet. You can use hooks, loops. Stitches etc to complete the squares. But here we can learn how
to complete the “Evening News” Afghan. The Afghan must reach 7 ½ inches over 54 squares.

How to sample squares:

To start with you need chain stitch 18 ounces of light weight gray wool and 14 ounces of pearl gray. The first row crochets the second chain stitch away from the hook. Chain one stitch and skip one stitch. Crochet, into the following chain stitch. Chain two stitches skip two chains and repeat. Now turn and start the second row. In the second row, start three chain stitches to double crochet, and double crochet into the single crochet. Like this make three doubles into each of the space and across to finish adding a double crochet into the final single crochet. Finish with the turn and close of the area. Next, chain three stitches to start the double crochet, and double crochet into all, following two stitches; chain two stitches, skip one stitch, double crochet into the following two stitches, and across to the finish working a double crochet into the final stitch, turn, and close. Once you are on the row four add light gray and chain 2 stitches to start your half-double crochet. Next, keep each of your loops on the hook, chain stitch, and intersperse your hook into the following stitch, followed by pulling up your loop a few times, and chain stitching through the finished nine loops. Puff stitch into your following space and chain one stitch. Repeat your steps starting across, and to the finish working a half double crochet into the final double, turn, and close tightly. For Row five add dark gray to the color scheme. Chain 3 stitches into the starting double crochet. Finish the double crochet repeating the steps across adding two chain stitches double crochet into the final stitch, turn and close tightly. For row six add another color wool and chain three stitches to start the double crochet. Double crochet the stitches across and finish, turn and close tightly. For Row Seven, add the other color and use the diagonal spike to stitch to start the following stitch skip one stitch and repeat to the finish and add a double crochet to the last double, turn and close. Continue rows 8-18 to finish.
