JOINING BLOCKS

I found a pretty braid-ish stitch to join my new solid granny squares.

 It works up very easily and looks good on the front 

 and back I am using a variegated skein from the stash to join instead of choosing one color to be dominant.

Just as I readied for a photo, 
Lena decided to bathe her hinder parts...
As soon as I was done, 
she lay down in a much more ladylike pose! 
I will be going back to Hobby Lobby in a few weeks 
and will be buying two more skeins of each of the mist (grey) 
and the ivory to make blanket in a good snuggly size.

  2. So pretty, I always hated joining squares because I never knew what stitch to use. That one looks nice. And all of the other projects you've finished or are working on are just wonderful. It's always a wonderful show of talent on your blog. Many wishes for a wonderful 2026, may you gain more peace each day.
