Additional Sampler Squares


This week I am getting ready to go to our knitting group where we meet our friends in Homestead. That got me to thinking that I have not posted the knitting square patterns for the sampler afghan for a while.

I have three squares in this blog so this will get everyone up to date and keep you out of trouble.

1st Row (right side)  – K4,  *p2, k4; rep from * to end.

Rep the last 2 rows twice more.
