Furballs' Broken Stone Seed Inside Out
Tomato 68 Evony
Furballs' Broken Stone Seed Inside Out, as its name implies, will be knitted from center out in
rounds. Increase will be at four points even every other row. Usually we will call it
mitering. This technique in making up a square has its limitation. It will never have straight
edge like a square unless vigorous blocking applied after. In this pattern, addition fabric surface
is added with the use of short rows to make the corners sharper and easier to block if preferred.
When doing the increases in this pattern, it might be a bit tight, so consider doing a set up of yarn
over at positions a row below where the increases will happen to supply extra yarn for lifting to
perform the m1r and m1l.
This is a pattern of eight (8) rounds repeats and the size could be adjusted with the numbers of
repeat, even half to quarter repeat is possible for this pattern. Just be aware that the smaller the
size, the lesser short rows will be needed to square off the piece.
