Woooohoooooooo!!!! Finished 4 clue #2 blocks! Now I can work on blocking all 12 of my squares. Never thought I'd get this much done in 10 days!

After many attempts, Clue #2 --- along with Clue #1 -- is complete. Very happy with the color combination, and looking forward to Clue #3.

The video of making the Shaker Rib was immensely helpful. Without it, the stitch did not make sense (K1Below?), but it was surprisingly easy once thoroughly explained.

Attached is an sample of each of my squares in the various color combinations.

Love the colour combinations! So glad it clicked for you! Your needles went pretty fast!

All through with Clue #2 The top two were steam blocked. The bottom two still need blocking. What a difference the blocking makes.

Hey Marilyn, how are you steam blocking? I'm a bit wary with my hot iron and synthetic yarn. My iron does a lot of steam, which is great for cotton and linen. I haven't blocked anything yet - was still nervous about it. I've only done blocking with pure wool yarn to date.
