Hi cool dude- finally found a man who enjoys the wonderful art of crochet- thank you for CAT TRACKS- I also crochet 12" squares for Heartmade Blessings and like a variety- I love this one- had 5 cats at one time- they liked to steal my skeins of yarn and hide them around the house-design some 6" Squares-Grandma from CA
Love the Name:) I am looking forward to trying this pattern, and thank you for sharing it with us! Will be back to your site to keep an eye out on new wonders that spring from your wonderful mind, what a muse you must have!lol Love Elfie, ie:twilightelf
Hi: This square is just what I was looking for. I have lots of salvaged items to take apart and make into something useful. Big lacy patterns don't look good with many colors but this square should work out great. Thanks for posting it. Jeanne
I love this pattern, reminds me of the step pyramids,

I like that this pattern isn't so lacy like other squares. I'm looking to make a couple of pillows for some friends getting married in a few months and I think this has enough texture for her without being too girly for him. Also, since this pattern isn't lacy, the pillow form won't show (like it would have with other square patterns I looked at).
