It’s time for my third knitted towel in my Halloween series. So far, I’ve knitted a bat and a skull & crossbones towel square in what I hope will be a festive and spooky Halloween table runner.
For this towel square, I used Sugar’n Cream cotton yarn in hot purple.

Bind off and weave in ends.
Like the other squares, I sprayed this one down with water and pinned it to a blocking board until it dried so that it was the same size and shape as the other pieces. So far, the colors are really working to create an interesting Halloween centerpiece. I’m hoping to make two more squares to complete the table runner.
