    The Mystery Blanket Challenge Square Two: Slipped Stitches

    It’s time for the second part of our Bees and Blooms Mystery Blanket, and we hope you can’t wait to cast on.

    The Mystery Blanket Challenge Square Four: Duplicate Stitch

    So far the squares of our Mystery Blanket have been all about texture – but this time we’re adding a little colour, instead. After knitting the basic square, you’ll use duplicate stitch to mimic complex-looking colourwork, without the effort – so this is another square that newer knitters can master in no time. Watch Rosie’s video guide to help you learn this essential technique

    We can’t believe we’re almost halfway through our Mystery Blanket already! In this fun fifth square you’ll be working a textured 3D effect known as bubble stitch. This pattern may sound complicated at first, but with a little care and attention we’re sure that even absolute beginners will be completing their squares in no time. Let Rosie show you how easy it can be by watching her video tutorial

    The Mystery Blanket Challenge Square Six: Diagonal Purl Stitch

    We’re now halfway through our mystery blanket and in this sixth instalment you’ll be adding a repeated purl pattern. This creates eye-catching diagonal lines that not only look good, but keeps the square from rolling in on itself, too. Rosie demonstrates this textured technique in the video hub which is much easier than it looks – head over now to see how it’s done!

    The Mystery Blanket Challenge Square Eight: Horizontal Stocking Stitch Stripe

    With so many different stitches to choose from, sometimes it’s nice to just keep things simple. That’s why this week we decided to work a square of easy stocking stitch stripes. As with all our blanket squares, this one features a garter stitch border on all four edges, which helps to stop the shape from shrinking up too much. Watch Rosie's helpful video guide if you're not sure how to do it

    The Mystery Blanket Challenge Square Nine: Simple Lace

    Lace knitting often sounds daunting to newer knitters but it doesn’t have to be complicated, as this gorgeous stitch pattern proves. In this week’s blanket square Rosie demonstrates a simple repeat design to create a lacework effect reminiscent of flowers – it’s the perfect way to practise the technique without committing to a larger make.

    The Mystery Blanket Challenge Square Ten: Honeycomb Cable Stitch

    Cabling is another of those techniques that always seems impossible until you actually give it a go. With just a few stitches per cable and eight rows per repeat, Rosie’s simple honeycomb design is the ideal way to learn how to cable on a small scale without the worry of ruining a larger make with a mistake. Grab your needles and let’s cast on! Watch Rosie's video tutorial to see how simple it…

Changing colours is super easy, as Rosie demonstrates in her video tutorial, make sure you check it out if you need a helping hand.
