P Alphabet square

'P' square

I give you a P... 

I have had a few people contact me & ask for the rest of the alphabet squares & I am getting around to them between customer orders. It is nice to know that there are so many of you knitting these up & I'd love to see them.
 Post yours on Instagram using #kwirkyknits so I can take a look.


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.

'Q' 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). Using a thinner yarn & needles will result in a smaller square. 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
