I don’t think the cross stitch one does that but we’ll be able to find the repeat and it would be a good place to start putting it into a knitting chart.

I can try and pop it into my cross stitch software. It’s a little more detailed than my knitting software

What’s the challenge?

For patterns like this I like to work in an assembly line style - I do ten middles, weave in the ends, then work ten of the next round, etc etc.

Oh yeah I never remember to get photos of FOs. By the time it’s done blocking I’ve moved on 😅

Just well practiced haha. I’ve been doing handwork since I was about three and went to school for fine arts/textiles

Not finished yet! I’ll probably pick it back up after the holidays.

To be fair- all the yarn sold inside Michael’s is kinda crap. And they haven’t had even sweater quantities of any one color for years.

Yeah I didn’t end up gifting this one. Just turned out kinda blah

Grannies are so fun! I usually use a continuous join as you go situation. I’m not about to seam all those together.

I was using a magic circle for these and then trying the the end off later with a darning needle.

I found someone with the yarn eventually. The sweater is finished it just burst that square when I washed it.
It’s probably thirty minutes from being wearable I’m just mad it at it 😅

In the last couple of years I’ve made two GS sweaters, three blankets and am currently working on two blankets. 😂 I’ve been kind of obsessed

Oh thanks!
At least it’s only one. And I’ll be much more careful with granny square centers from now on.

Ran out of yellow midway through- colorway has been discontinued 😂

This was probably me not tying that knot off properly.
