I don’t understand the instructions for this pattern. All I see is G1 (1 square) and likewise. Looking at the grid didn’t seem to help either.
The pattern assumes that you know how to do corner-to-corner (C2C) crochet. Each square represents a CH3 and DC3. If you have never followed a C2C crochet graph before, I recommend watching The Crochet Crowd’s video tutorial. It’s kind of long, but Mikey explains things very well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZk8hk6w1xc&ab_channel=TheCrochetCrowd
