Notes

For this square I chose Double Moss Stitch (the UK version).

This yarn is knitting up as a light aran, so adjustment in number of stitches cast on. It also feels surprisingly soft.

Cast on 30 stitches and knitted until the length was 6 inches.
I’m working in inches for this because my pressing pad which I’ll use for blocking the squares to the exact size is marked in inches rather than cm.

For anyone looking at this who is not a Ravelry member so doesn’t have the link to the yarn information, this is the information about the yarn: 100% Zwartbles wool from the Blunthowe Flock, Lancs.

One of the Sheepfold Specific breeds, incl rare and primitive (100% pure British wool from specific sheep breeds and processed for Sheepfold, UK. Most breeds are native to the UK including many on the RBST watchlist (rare breeds). Available from www.sheepfold.co.uk. Will felt if machine washed)
