Hey Mary Grace,
I can't wait to make this new cloth. I had to take my Mom to the ER today...that was unexpected...she is fine...thank the Lord! Praying you're feeling better today too!
God Bless You,
Merry:)
Thanks a bunch for the new pattern!

Working on turning this one into an afghan. I inverted the knits and purls in adjacent squares to give it a checkerboard pattern with the inset. Trying to decide if I want 4 per square and sew together like a quilt, or get industrious and use my 48" Tunisian hook.
