Free Illusion or Shadow Knit Pattern Big O

Ok, I finally got the new pattern finished and decided to post it before I actually made it into something. It's better but I think it's still too elongated and I think if I was to make it big enough to include 4 squares, it would be nicer and maybe make more sense. There's the square and then the circle inside the square and then a square inside the circle. I'll use this pattern on something.......not sure what and then will post it so you'll see the full pattern.

Another beautiful day here in Seattle. Just beautiful. Don't even know if it got to 70 but it came close and nice and sunny, too.

We went to the state fair all day yesterday, the weather was perfect, and we found this wonderful embroidery technique done by a Chinese family. Their web site is www.silkart.ca. Make sure you read about how the embroidery is done. The thread they use is so so thin you can hardly see it and it makes for exqusitely detailed work and vibrant colors.





Here's the new pattern. And another view.








I'm working on the same pattern but still trying to make it less elongated and more of a circle. There's more ideas floating around in my head that I want to try, too. So stay tuned.....

Just thought I'd show off my little grandsons. Here's one. One at a time.





This is little Ethan something just under 1 year old.


I better get back to work knitting and designing. I need to list a few more things in my Ebay store, too. I have a few more purses/totes I can show you, too.


Till next time................BYEEEEEEE
