As of today, there are 98 members on the Ravelry Share a Square 2010 group and 191 on the Facebook group. Now there are some shared members between the groups, but still, like I said to Shelly last week, it's gives me Goosebumps that there are so many involved so early in the project.
Speaking of Bumps- here's a great square pattern from Rachel Shammy, Purpleiguana on Ravelry, called Bumpy Square. There are a couple of variations of where to "bump", but I did the 20 chain one with a Size G hook to get a six inch square. Enjoy!
Using Red Heart Super Saver WW yarn, ch 20.
Special stitch: bump (2 DC cluster--yo, insert hook at stitch indicated, yo, pull loop through, yo, pull through two loops; repeat once more, yo, pull loop through all three loops on hook)
Row 1. SC in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across. Ch 1, turn.
Row 2. SC into first SC, * bump in next stitch, SC * rep from * to * to end of row. Ch 1, turn.
Row 3. SC straight across. Ch 1, turn.
Row 4. SC into first two SC, * bump in next stitch, SC * rep from * to * to end of row; SC into last two stitches. Ch 1, turn.
Row 5. SC straight across. Ch 1, turn.
Repeat Rows 2-5 until square measures 6 inches. When I do it, there are 9 “bump” rows.
