What you need to know

The next two squares in Part 4 of our homely knitalong show you how to conjure up an intricate design in knit and purl stitches, then lacy eyelets and slipped stitches are strategically combined to create an all-over design of delicate feathers – just keep an eye on your pattern and stitch count after every row.

Find the chart for the Embossed Leaf below:

“The blanket is inspired by the idea of nurturing and I thought a birdhouse was a good way to illustrate this. It works for both boys and girls, and hints at the bond between mother and child”

Eyelets are useful in creating holes for edgings, drawstrings and lace patterns. The yarn forward (yfwd) is used between two knit stitches, and a yarn round needle (yrn) between two purl stitches.
