Notes

This sucker is so large even my husband can’t hold it fully open.

Mods:

  • did 3-needle BO with wrong sides together to get a ridge.
  • assembled the squares all facing the same way, as I didn’t like the big diagonal swath of the MC I saw on the pattern and some projects.
  • I started the 3 stitch icord for the border - twice - but this yarn is not flexible with the linen and it just wasn’t working, so no border at all!

Note the trick in the pattern of joining the squares where you pick up one side, then leave 1/2 inch of yarn then pick up the other side.

  • approx. 110 yards/square.
  • 24 squares. Pink on 4 and green hempathy on 4.
  • had to buy 2 more blue to finish.
