Tic Tac Toe

8 ply yarn in 3 colours

Round 5: switch to second colour, work in corner (2sc, ch 1, 2 sc), (2sc in next sp) twice, work corner. Join w/ sl st.

Round 6:  sl st in next st, and in corner ch 1 sp, (ch 3, dc, ch 2, 2dc) in corner, work 8 dc across to corner (2dc, ch 2, 2 dc) Join w/ sl st FO

Round 7:  switch to third colour, join in corner, (ch 3, dc, ch 2, 2dc), (ch 1, sk 1, dc) 6 times, ch 1, work corner (2dc, ch 2, 2dc) cont. around, join w/ sl st

Round 8:  sl st to corner, 3 sc in corner, sc in each st and sp (17 sc), corner 3sc. Continue around. FO

Round 9:  with first colour, join in corner, work [2dc, ch 1, 2dc] in corner st, work 19 dc across
