Pine Tree Pattern
Now that the squares are done, Pixie stitched together the top row squares and then single crocheted along the bottom edges of these stitched together squares. This evened out the squares. She did the same to the tops and bottoms of the other rows to even them all out, then seamed them together.
The holidays are upon us!
Pixie has come up with some great holiday KALs!
