Raised Circles Square
Happy Fall! :D
Last October, our Stitchology column focused on making circles using the Puff Stitch to resemble those rotund symbols of autumn…pumpkins! I thought it would be fitting to work up another square this year that brings those big orange gourds to mind, but rather than raising the center, we’d raise the outline of the circles—meet the Raised Circles Stitch. It is an exercise in cable making, chart reading, and row counting…but the results are definitely worth it! This stitch could also be used to simulate candle flames or ornaments for the holidays, or as my daughter exclaimed when she first saw the square: pieces of eight! ;)
