Beyond the Square: Motif #143


Motif #143

Category: Unusual Shapes

Progress: 13 of 100+

Notes: A-ma-zing, isn't it? In the book, the circles are yellow and orange, the frame is blue. I don't know why, but when I looked at the motif with the interwoven rings, it made me think of the Ying and Yang sign and I knew at once, that I had to make the rings in black and white. I think it looks quite cool with the dark pink frame. It's not too difficult to make, but - truth to be told - I admit that I had some problems with joining the two rings (they are already joined in the second round of the second ring). Memo to myself: Next time they recommend to use a stitch marker - use one, girl!! :)

    Wow. That looks very complex. I'm afraid I'll be doing squares for a long time! I like your color choices.

    Hallo Barbara,
    sehr schön!
    Ich habe auch sofort an Ying und Yang gedacht, als ich dein Bild gerade sah. Mit dem Marker hast du völlig recht.
    Liebe Grüße

    Yes...Ying/Yang..that´s what I thought when I first saw it. I love how you chose a black and white background as well for the picture.
