GAUGE:

11 half double crochet = 4 in. (10 cm). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Crochet Squares Afghan Reviewed by Nancy Lapid on 2013-03-15 *****
This was easy to make, and I'd make it again. I used different colors (I let the recipient choose her colors) and I made one modification, which was to put a border on both ends to make it longer.
