The intermediate design is a relief squares effect, which shows just how creative you can be with only knit and purl stitches. Apologies, there is a small correction to Row 6 of the Squares Square. You should work to the…

  • Friendship Blanket Knitalong: Part 3

    We hope your blanket is progressing nicely. It’s time for the third instalment which is based around one of our favourite stitches – moss stitch. The simple alternation of knit and purl stitches produces a gorgeous texture, and if you want to elevate your square, add in twists and cables to make beautiful hearts. Apologies, there is a misprint on the T3B abbreviation, you need to hold the yarn…

  • Friendship Blanket Knitalong: Part 4

  • Friendship Blanket Knitalong: Part 5

    Make a statement with two new squares for your textured blanket. Your beginner buddy can set their bobbles against a classic stocking stitch background, while you can add extra elements including crossed stitches.

  • Friendship Blanket Knitalong: Part 1

    It’s a brand-new year and what better time to learn a new skill! This gorgeous blanket made of textured squares has been designed with both beginner and intermediate level stitch patterns, so partner up with one of your besties and let’s knit together! The first instalment includes simple garter stitch for first-timers and a geometric triangles effect for more practised hands. Enjoy!

  • Friendship Blanket Knitalong: Part 6

    We’ve made it to the last part of this stunning blanket and we hope you’ve enjoyed pairing up with the knitting pal to learn some new stitches. There’s just time for two more square patterns to complete the set, before you sew up your blanket and finish it off with a moss stitch edging. Needles at the ready!
