Katrala Posted March 6, 2010 Picked up a book at local used bookstore a few weeks back and I thought this looked interesting to try. Was my first time ever doing post stitch and I learned a lot from it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

suncountry Posted March 6, 2010 It's so pretty. I like that the blocks are different colors. Was it hard to learn the post stitches? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ldyjarhead Posted March 6, 2010 Very pretty. How big are the squares? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Katrala Posted March 6, 2010 It's so pretty. I like that the blocks are different colors. Was it hard to learn the post stitches? It was a little tricky at first, but once I understood what it was I was supposed to do it was a breeze. It gave a "Knit 1, Purl 2" appearance to some of the squares. Very pretty. How big are the squares? Each square is about 6-7". The pattern has no square touching a square with the same design, which I really liked. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
