                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Corner-to-corner blocks are large, so even the Tiny font makes a bold letter on a blanket or pillow. For a single big initial, open the letter in the editor and scale up by drawing each block as a 2×2 group, or use the Serif font for extra detail.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Letters introduce colour changes in the middle of diagonal rows. Wind small bobbins of the letter colour before you start, and carry the background yarn behind short runs rather than cutting it every time.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Yes — open the letter in the editor and redraw it larger, or add a wide background border for a pillow.
