Ok, you are tempting me to try yet another thing, and I will, but I have a christening blanket to finish and an afghan for my MIL for xmas. Too many things to try, so little time!

This is beautiful! Can't wait to try it - I hope to make two and join them as a little "make-up" bag for my 3 year old niece :) wish me luck hehe
ReplyDeleteThat is just the prettiest square I think I've ever seen! I am new to making squares and I just have to do this one. Thanks for the great pattern, Suzie!
ReplyDeleteHelp! I'm trying this square and the instructions are just not making sense to me. I have gotten to round 5 and am baffled! No matter how I try it, I don't end up with 12 loops, I have either more or less. Can you give a little more detail on this round? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteOn round 5, you are making an extra "loop" in what will be the corners. Try not to over think it.
ReplyDeleteI loved making this square, it turned out to be very simple to make, great instructions
ReplyDeleteThanks for the pattern, I'm really lookking forward to trying it. I have added a link to it on my blog, I hope that is ok?
ReplyDeleteJo :)

ReplyDeleteI guess you mean round 4 since $ shares the 4 on my keyboard.
ReplyDeleteFibercat did a tutorial of this square maybe that will help you.
