The First 3 Squares
Hello:
Super weird weather here; freezing fog. We are having "dead air" where there is no wind or rain, and our air quality is getting poor, so the county has issued a burn ban meaning no wood fires in fire places, wood stoves, bonfires, fire pits, etc. I have never seen anything like this. It's a fog that never burns off.
Anyway, I have finished the third square of my Transfiguration OWL Afghan. Again, I am using Julie Yeager's Eight Pointed Flower Square.
I am still trying to decide how I want to seam the squares together.
The squares will have either a navy or a "claret" (dark red) single crochet border. These will alternate so I never have two squares with the same color border together. I hooked the first two squares together with a contrasting color (beige) that is visible from the right side.
I hooked the third square on with an invisible seam.
At first, I thought I would go with the contrasting color seam showing. I have 3 votes so far: 2 for invisible, 1 for seam showing. Now that I have the two to compare, I am thinking that I like invisible better.
What do you think?
I need to have at least 6 squares finished, and seamed by the end of the month, along with all my other knitting. EEEK! I need to decide this soon. Until then, I will keep making the squares.
Let me know which looks the best.
Peace.
Yours,

I like the invisible. It flows better for whatever reason.
