Sad Emoji Block – C2C Crochet Emoji Afghan

C2C Emoji Afghan Block 5—Sad Emoji

Some of the links on this site are affiliate links. I make a small commission from sales when you click through the link. There is no additional cost to you.

For any grouping of emojis you need every expression—the negative as well as the positive. This little guy is all sadness with his falling tear, turned down mouth, and scrunched up eyebrows. After stitching up this block, you’ll be about halfway done with the afghan! Join us next week for block 6—the Surprised Emoji.

Sad Emoji Instructions

Materials

~ Sad Emoji 25×25 Pixel Graph

~ Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice Yarn 3.5 oz skeins in the following colors:

• Mustard  [252] — 3.1 ounces
• White  [204] — 2.6 ounces
• Black  [118] — .9 ounces
• Colonial Blue [51] — .2 ounces

~ Size H Crochet Hook or hook needed to achieve gauge (see Gauge for C2C Afghans)

~ Tapestry Needle

Crochet the square starting from the bottom right corner of the chart.  Row-by-row written instructions are below.

After you finish crocheting the block, crochet one row of single crochet in WHITE around the entire block.  I crochet 5 single crochet stitches for every two squares or pixels on the chart.  If I try to do more than that, my border tends to end up wavy from too many stitches.  For 25×25 pixel graphs I crochet 63 SC stitches on each side + an extra stitch in each corner.  I do recommend counting the stitches and having the same number on each side—being consistent will make it much easier to sew the blocks together at the end.

Enjoy!
