Block Ten: The Granny Stitch

Wow, here we are – all the way to Block TEN of The Stitchwork Scarf! The last and final block and let me tell ya, this one does not disappoint!

The granny stitch is formed by working clusters of dc stitches into the same space. In this block, 3 dc sts are worked together in a granny cluster. You can choose to work this block in a single color or in multiple colors for a striped granny square pattern. If you choose to stripe the pattern, you will need to cut yarn and weave in the ends at the end of each row.Ā
