I Love Moss Stitch

One of my absolutely favourite stitches
HOW TOO:
Base chain as long as you want it even number.
Row 1: sc in every st. turn
Row 2: ch 1, *sc, in first st, chain one, miss a st, sc in next st * repeat from * to * until the row is done.
Row 3: turn ch 1, *sc in the chain space, ch 1* repeat until row complete.
Row 4-how ever many you want to do is a repeat of Row 3.
OR
to get the tweedy look use a different colour for each row
Good Luck James hope they all behave...
Splodge and Brupbrup..brothers from the RSPCA, Mr T the first stray that arrived one day and decided he liked the service, and Lettuce who thought it quieter to live with us.

Have a great week everyone

  2. The Moss Stitch Queen! Do you like your new name?! It looks very effective I have to say! I managed Row 6 of the African Flower Square. Yippee! Your revised pattern is very clear. I'll be tackling that last row tomorrow!
    I had to laugh at all those black cats on the bed! Is it a coincidence that they're all black?!
