Terminology:

Pattern Steps:
Round 1:
- Start with a double magic loop.
- Make 8 clusters: (2 double crochet together, chain 1) around the loop. After the last chain, pull the yarn to close the magic loop securely.
- Darn in the ends for a seamless look.
Round 2:
- In any chain-1 space: 2 single crochet, 3 chains, 2 single crochet.
- Front post single crochet around each cluster.
- Repeat around all 8 clusters.
- Sew in yarn ends.
For Round 3:
- Double crochet into the front post single crochet from the previous round, chain 1, double crochet in the same space.
- Back post single crochet around the second single crochet, chain 1.
- Repeat this pattern around every cluster.
Round 4:
- Work in every chain-1 space: A standing double crochet, chain 1, followed by a puff stitch in the next V-stitch space (double crochet, chain 1, double crochet), and chain one.
- Repeat this around, ensuring to do puff stitches in the appropriate spaces.
- Sew in yarn ends.
For Round 5 up to Round 9:
Continue following the established pattern of working specific stitches (such as double crochet, half double crochet, single crochet, chain spaces, puff stitches, front post, and back post stitches) into designated spaces from previous rounds to gradually build up the square's intricate overlay crochet design.
Round 10:
- Work independent small rounds in each corner of the square: Slip stitch into the top of the double crochet before the corner, then make 6 double crochets with chains between them into each corner chain space.
- Sew in all yarn ends to finish.
This pattern seems to be a fun game between the creator and a friend, where they alternated rounds without knowing what the other would do next. The outcome is a beautiful and intricate crochet square.
