I square pattern

'I' square

The I square pattern is here.



Nine squares in & I'm looking for new ideas on what to use the squares for...

...You could make a smaller blanket & use chosen letters to spell out words or names.
One of my fellow knitters is waiting patiently for me to get to Y so she can knit a BABY blanket.



Please do me the courtesy of a pattern credit should you make an item to sell on. The pattern itself may not be sold in any part or form. 


I have used double knit yarn on UK size 3.25mm needles to keep the pattern tight, you can use 4mm if you prefer. Finished square is approx 7.5"/19cm square.

Abbreviations:  K-Knit. P-Purl. St-Stitch/s. Rep-Repeat. Moss Stitch- K1,P1 to end.

'J' square coming next....

You can use any thickness of yarn, just use the needles suggested on the ball band (or slightly smaller for a tighter pattern). Also if you prefer, knit the border instead of using moss stitch. Just knit rows 1-6 & rows 56-61 & knit the first 6 & last 6 stitches on each row instead of K1,P1. 

Happy Knitting
