Oriental Star
Originally inspired by Asian fabrics and carpets in rich, spicy shades, this textured afghan block would look equally good in any two contrasting colours, or in a full rainbow palette.
The block measures 12” approx if made with Worsted or Aran weight yarn; and 9” approx if DK is used.
7 pages of clear instructions are supplemented by extra hints and tips, along with close-up photographs of each round and individual stitch placements to keep you on track, so you can be sure of a pleasing result.
Excited to add it’s the featured square for Week 41 (14th October 2019) of Julie Yeager’s Block a Week with JulieAnny CAL - join in the fun here
STOP PRESS SEPTEMBER 2020:
Also delighted to say that this is the chosen square for this month’s Block a Month crochet-along - more fun to be had here!
