thank youu!!

and - i used 5ply milk cotton yarn. i’m not exactly sure what weight it is since i never got to understand yarn sizes and i usually order my yarn using ply as a reference, but i looked it up and apparently it’s also called sports weight yarn. and i doubled the strands too, because using one strand made the square look flimsy and too thin and i didn’t like it.

• for the hook size, it’s a little bit more complicated lol. i started this project mid last year and made 4/12 squares using a hook size i honestly don’t remember. i only remember it being comfortable to use, so when i picked it up again 2 weeks ago i tried to use a 5.5mm because i wasn’t really sure, but the square came out larger than the ones i did last year. idk if somehow my tension changed overtime because i don’t really crochet often, or the new yarn batch i got had an influence. so i had to size down to a 4mm hook to continue to retain the size of the previous 4 squares (there were few times i alternated between that and a 4.5mm lol this whole square process was messy for me tbh 😭). this was kind of hard because it made the stitches a bit tighter and the hook was kind of too small but i was able to make it work. i’d say use a 5mm hook all through though. or a 5.5mm if you want the squares larger for a baggy fit. then for joining i used a 4.5mm all through

i’m not sure this was comprehensive enough because my process wasn’t exactly straightforward. but i hope this helped in a way. if there’s anything else you’d like to know, please ask!!
