Square Project: Square 4 -HoneyComb
Square
-
-
- This is the last
in the afghan square series. It is framed with Irish moss
- with an inner
frame of purled stitches to make it stand out. It is the same
- pattern stitch
used as the center panel for the sweater in my book so if you
- have done up the
sweater this will be very familiar to you. It is one of my
- favorites. The
honeycomb is worked over 8 stitches over 8 rows.
- The materials used and the frame is the same as the
previous squares.
- See square 1, for materials etc.
