"And with just one ball I created a triangle shawl! I used the Moss Stitch (SC + Chain 1) which is such a simple beautiful stitch. Unlike a traditional SC where you can see a defined front and back of the stitch, the moss stitch allows for perfect little “v’s” on both sides which makes your project completely reversible. Plus the self-striping nature of Caron Big Cakes lends itself so well to this stitch and project!" - Sarah @ Repeat Crafter Me
