PA Dutch Rosette Square

materials:

small amount of yarn
any size hook

notes:

--This pattern makes a fairly small square. Using a size "I" hook, I got a 3 inch square.
--The pattern is named for the Pennsylvania Dutch Rosette Cookies my grandma makes. (yum!) If you don't know what a rosette cookie is, it's almost like a miniature, thinner funnel cake. They're rosette shaped (surprise ;-)) and they're crispy, airy and very quick to disappear--probably why the recipe makes about 200.
--Because of the looks of a half double crochet, either side could be used as the front.

pattern:

chain 8, slip stitch in 1st chain to form ring
Rnd 1: chain 8, (double crochet in ring, chain 5) 7 times, join with slip stitch to 3rd beginning chain
Rnd 2: slip stitch in first ch 5 loop, chain 1, (8 half double crochet in next* loop, 2 half double crochet in next loop) 4 times
join with slip stitch to first half double crochet
finish off
weave in ends

*first time, 8 half doubles will be worked in same loop as slip stitch
