Notes

I am obsessed with these tiles! (Could you tell?) Oh my!

I have decided that the brown heather and off white need to be hooked with the brown on top only. The white on top of the brown is too much contrast and doesn’t work. The brown heather gets lost and needs to be highlighted and not buried!

The grape and burgundy do not matter which way they get hooked up. They play really nice together either way. (But I can’t hook them at night. Not enough contrast and too similar in tone. Dark tone!)

This yarn is much easier to start a square with. I have devised a way to do it all in one round. and still start each round in the middle of the chart. I still don’t much care for the sc beginning so I am using hdc to start everything off.

double magic loop, ch1, 2 hdc ,# ch2, 3 hdc,# 3xs, ch2 1 hdc. Join and tighten ml

Brown and white: 226 grams to start (2 skeins but I didn’t weigh them in.)

6 squares = 172 grams (28.7 grams each)
Approx. 12.7 grams white and 15.7 brown

9.25 x 9.25”

Purple and burgundy
3 squares = 86 grams (28.7 grams each.)

All 24 squares of the brown and white are done and 1/2 hooked together. I couldn’t figure out a nice random way of putting the squares together so I decided that rows of each will have to do. (Groups of 6 doesn’t line up as nicely as groupings of 12.)
