This is the 2024 yearly KAL in the Beginner’s Knit-Along group.

Cécile (moderator) will design/use a different stich pattern each month, to be published both in chart and written form on the 10th each month of 2024.

Meant to be a sampler blanket, this pattern, like our previous yearly KALs in the group, is open to any kind of interpretation.
You can knit 12 cloths, 12 blanket squares, 12 hats, 12 cowls, 12 pairs of mitts or slippers, 12 tissue box cosies…
We provide a monthly stich pattern, feel free to use it as you wish.

There will be textured squares, lace squares, cable squares, “advanced textured” squares. Something for all, from beginner to advanced knitter. An opportunity to try new stitch patterns on a relatively small item (each square blocks at 28 x 28 cm).

The sample is knitted in DK yarn, but you can easily adapt it to any thickness by just knitted a few more/fewer stitches to get the wanted width with your chosen yarn.

You will need US 6 (4mm) needles, and between 700 m and 900 m of yarn, depending on how large you make your squares.
CAUTION. This is only an evaluated meterage. Since the pattern doesn’t exist yet, it’s impossible to forecast precisely.

EDIT. A Danish translation is available here, month after month, care of MarianneHo
