Learn how to work curved shapes while making the beautiful Flower Show block. Curves are created by short rows, decreases, increases and the clever placement of 3-needle Bind offs. Geometric knitting technique is a combination of multiple techniques that allows us to create beautiful designs with color while handling just one yarn at a time. Handout includes instructions for turning the block into a pillow cover or blanket.
