M square pattern

'M' square


I'm getting there & we are now at the M square pattern.


I'm so busy with orders, which is a good thing, but trying to find the hours in the day to complete them & write these patterns is not an easy task. The blanket so far is over on my  Facebook page if you want a peek.



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.

'N' 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

  1. Hi, I love these letters. I have been saving them as I was going to make an alphabet blanket for my friend who is due a baby at the end of November. I was just wondering if you had any more letters ready to go up on the blog.
