Part Three of the ABC Block Series shows you how to tapestry crochet the letters I, J, K and L as little squares.
Each of these squares include both tapestry graphs and written word charts. Additionally, I have made a video tutorial that will show you how to crochet these squares (included below). So if you're new to tapestry crochet, you'll be able to make these squares with great ease. You don't have to turn these squares into blocks later. You may like to make a fun doll quilt with them instead, or perhaps you want to combine the letters to spell out names, phases or words in your very own creative tapestry crochet project. Have fun with these and let your imagination go wild!
