So happy to have been invited to share this one with the Ravelry Block A Month Crochet-A-Long (BamCAL) group as the featured 6″ square for May 2022!

Tigerstripe is designed for only two colors, but those colors could be high contrast or low, and choices like that will make a lot of difference in the final appearance. (Or one could really cut loose and use 5 or 6 colors —that would be some wild tiger!)

This pattern is written in US terms.
Skill level for this square is INTERMEDIATE (for spike stitches).
The PDF also contains a chart.
