I hope that people who already posted pictures (in the old thread) of the squares that they are working on will re-post them here where they will be easier to find and enjoy.

It is good to get those exact otherwise pming is a nightmare!!! Fixed it

I'll take some pictures this weekend of my spring swap progres so far, some hexagons and a bunch of beginnings and so far all with the cotton worsted weight. I have some of that soft TLC yarn in pretty fall colors that I am thinking of using too though so I'm planning to mix the cotton and the acrylic. I think I am going to make my circles with the cotton in case anyone wants to use them as dishcloths, usig that pattern off the lionbrand site..which by the way is a good place for you to look too Kris..lionbrand.com and search for dishcloths..should give you squares, circles and hexagons that are in the easy range and nice looking too.
