26

When I set out to do this blog, I hoped I could keep it up for a full year. Amazingly, we are halfway there! With one more week to go in 2017, here's a square that's all dressed up for a holiday party--Black Tie requested!

I discovered the bow tie while working out some stripes that will appear in future squares. While making it, I noticed that even though the center 'knot' stays the same size, the design overall scales quite nicely.

While the square above and the pattern are 19 rounds, a smaller square reads just as clearly. I dressed this 13-round square up even more with sparkling metallic beads and a 3-color 'tweed' background.  It would work in a wide variety of color combinations, too. 

                                            

Happy Holidays from me and Clio here at WSW and I hope everyone has a wonderfully Happy New Year!

You may also notice that I have figured out how to make the pattern bigger, I think it's much easier to read.
