Cherri's Square 6

My Square 6 is done! The color is Buff and I've decided I don't like purling in the back loop. It's very awkward and I knit too tightly to do it comfortably. I don't mind doing it now and then but more than that is too much. :)

Square 7

Square 8 - Messed up on this one a little more than halfway up. Will probably go back and fix it at some point.

Heather's Square 6

I finished square 6. I thought it would take me months but after the first 2 rows it got easier. Still lots of mistakes in it. :( I kept changing my stitches halfway through *sigh*

Donna's Square 6

This one took me all week to do. The stitch wasn't hard to learn. But I don't like it. It makes the square seem to go slower to me. It's exactly the right height and if I tug it a bit it becomes the same size as square 1.

Cindy's Square 6

I cannot say that I like this pattern much. I "fudged" it a little so that I wouldn't have the uneven look of doing the last three rows of the pattern.

Shelby's Square 6

Square 6 finished. Once again, it has not been blocked.

Wasn't too bad to make, but I am getting bored with single color blocks.

Laura's Square 6

Here is square six. It took a long time to make, and I am not sure why. I just didn't have the mojo I guess.

I hope hubby photographed it the right side up!

Pauline's square #6

Didn't like this pattern at all. It looks nice but the stitches are nasty. My edges really need improving on this but I'm not doing it again. Cream is the colour used in this square.

Wendy's Square 6

Here is my Square 6, had a bit of trouble with the ptbl at the beginning but then after finding a better way to do it it went quicker, still took me all week to do. Sorry about that.

Krystal's Square 6

RHSS in Buff.

This square put the emphasis on Learn for me. I didn't have any trouble with the ptbl - I knit continental and it was really only a matter of changing the angle. It didn't feel awkward at all. What I did have to learn, though was how to create even tension. My first two tries at this were horribly messy - it looked like I have never knit before in my life. The ptbl and ktbl really exaggerate any variances in tension you might have.

All of my square to date have been using size 5 needles. This one, I required bumping up to size 8's so that I could ensure that even stitch was securely tensioned to the needle. Now the stitches look mostly neat, but you can see where I got a little TOO much tension and the rows are shorter. All the sections have the right number rows, but you can see the shorter sections where I was tighter.

I did exactly the right number of rows and it came out to the right length, but this still required some tugging to get to the right width. I'm not sure if I was supposed to add stitches on to make it the right width without tugging or not - no one seems to have the answer?

Tracy's square 6

I finished square 6 early this week, it was fun to make and I like the rib pattern of the first half.

Karen's square 6

Here is square 6 completed. I don't really like doing the purl in the back loop... I found it very awkward... This one is about 9 inches wide and almost 9 inches long. Do I have any two squares the same size??? I will really need to work with the borders to get them all the same if I want this all into one afghan. Or maybe I'll make a few lapghans instead...

Sherri's Square 6

Square 6 is comprised of alternating bands of twisted and crossed ribbing. It was a challenging square to make as learning to purl through the back loops was a bit (no, a lot) awkward. I changed the height of the first and last repeats to make the pattern a bit more symmetrical.
