Simply Soft is soo much nicer than Red Heart--can't believe I ever knit with Red Heart now!

The blocks are garter stitch, and a simple combination of yarn overs and a decrease (either k2tog or ssk, depending on the repeat) create the angle of the garter stitch blocks. super easy!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15134113576165467299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596236638912320516.post-52887353381160304012012-06-28T12:52:10.072-05:002012-06-28T12:52:10.072-05:00thank you so much for this tip!
