Triangular numbers are what you get when you add conscecutive numbers. The circles with dark centres are
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 ……. +14 = 105
The circles without dark centres are
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 ……. +15 = 120
Add two consecutive triangular numbers and you get a square number.
105 + 120 = 225, which is the square of 15

CONSTRUCTION INFORMATION
225 squares are worked individually in crochet trebles (UK definition).
The backing is made in one piece and the circles are attached at the same time.

The back has a simple pattern of stripes, which cannot be seen from the front.
It works well as a hanging room-divider as a different design is seen from each side.
