V square pattern

'V' square

V alphabet knitting pattern



Whizzing through these last few squares now. W, X, Y & Z have all been written & the W square is currently on my needles for the test knit. So we will soon be finished at long last. 

I'd love to see your knitted squares. Post them on Instagram or Twitter using #kwirkyknits so I can take a look.

We are getting to the end now, just a few more letters to go. I wonder what to try next??

It's been a long time coming.... I'm sorry for the delay, life just gets in the way sometimes. But I'm back & the remaining letters will be available in the next few days. This one is pretty easy.

S square pattern

'S' square


S alphabet knitting pattern


White is so hard to photograph! But here is the next square pattern. Only 7 letters to go...then I will add a basic plain square pattern to fill in the gaps.

Q Square pattern

'Q' square


Q alphabet knitting pattern


I have adjusted the pattern very slightly to the one in the photo on row 13 to give a better line through the Q.

How are you getting on with your squares? Post them on Instagram using #kwirkyknits so I can take a look.

N Square Pattern

'N' square


Welcome back, it's been a while.


It has been quite a while since I posted the M square, I've had such a busy few months. I do apologise but aim to have the rest of the patterns test knitted & blogged as quickly as possible.


Having test knitted the N square (as in the photo) I decided I didn't like how the offset in the up stroke of the N looked, so I have edited the pattern so yours will go up in a straight line.

J square pattern

'J' square


We are now at the J square pattern.


My blanket is getting quite big already & I'm starting to think what type of border to add.  I think a straight moss stitch border will be the easiest for new knitters, but maybe I'll offer an alternative border too for the more advanced knitters.

H square pattern

'H' square

Here is the knitting pattern for the H square.



Another suggestion I have for you is wash cloths.
Knit up a square using DK cotton yarn for individual wash cloths. Great for a quick gift & there are a wide variety of colours available.

How many media sites is too many??

Just how many social media sites do we need?


'Start an on-line business' they said.... 'You will make a killing' they said...
Just who are they & what do they know??

OK, so I knew it wasn't going to be easy, but did I realise how flooded the market was going to be & how much time it takes to get my shop out there....Simple answer is, no. But I kinda do now.


This is where it all started, a simple head band I made for a friend & posted on Facebook. Suddenly everyone I knew wanted one so I thought I must be on to a winner. 


Things were good, no..they were great!! Orders were constant & I was clicking my needles every waking hour. Then Facebook (or as my crafty friends have now nicknamed it Mr Face-ache) changed how businesses were being seen. Suddenly I spent more hours networking than I did knitting. The orders were still coming but not to the extent they were. Time for my next social media search.
