Tunisian Knit Stitch Square Inspiration:

The arrowheads are a cute touch reminiscent of the directions when you are on a mountain trail. The perfect cozy touch to a Wild One themed blanket! For this square, I wanted to try something different for those who prefer not to do color work. The duplicate stitch is another alternative to doing color work and it works perfectly on the Tunisian knit stitch square. You would complete it exactly the same way as you would on a knitted piece.
