My 4-year old chose the name, naming it after himself. So cute! I feel that this is just the beginning of this square, it will most likely continue to grow.
If you want the pattern in Swedish I can e-mail you a PDF to you.
This block will cup a bit, but will be perfectly fine after blocking.
Here we go!
Yarn: Scheepjes Catona

Color 2: Green # 205
Color 3: White # 106
Color 4: Brown # 162

Note: rounds 2-5 finishes with "needle join". Google it if you're not familiar with this join. So much worth it! Makes a neat ending, and it's supereasy!
You crochet in back loops unless stated otherwise.
