Ever wonder how to fill in those ch-2 corners? Here’s a special stitch that closes gaps usually created by the ch-2 corner. Don’t let the odd stitch overwhelm you. The only difference between a normal double crochet and an adjacent double crochet stitch (adc) is where the hook is placed.
This tutorial uses double crochet, but you can use the same technique for half double or single crochet also. Just replace double crochet in the directions with the crochet stitch of your choice.
Directions for Round Two.
Leftie? Me too! Scroll down for left handed directions.
Right Handed Directions
Step One: Chain 4 and slip stitch to make a ring. Chain 3, and double crochet in the ring.
Note how each double crochet has four prongs on the base, two on the right side and two on the wrong side, that loop around the double crochet stitch beneath it.
Step Two: Yo and inset hook in bottom front left prong.
Step Three: Proceed as if this were a normal double crochet stitch. Yarn over, pull through prong, yarn over and pull through two loops…
…yarn over and pull through two loops.
To Complete the Round: *3 dc in ring, adc, rep from 2 times, end adc, dc in ring, join rnd with sl st.

I love how the square comes out so solid with no gaps. Except that iam having a gap at the joining point making very obvious seam, how to avoid that?
