Border for the Mini American Flag Square C2C Crochet Pattern

Make 2 sc in each square along the sides and in each corner square make (2 sc, ch 2, 2 sc).

Adding Stars to the Mini C2C Crochet Square Pattern

I didn’t add any stars but if you want to, I think white puff paint dots, gluing tiny felt stars, or just sewing them with some extra scrap white yarn are great options.

Finishing the Mini C2C Crochet Square Pattern

Fasten off and then weave in all of your ends. Block if desired.
