This is the fourth in a series of 50 patterns for a knitted sampler blanket, to be published weekly throughout 2018. The blanket is made up of 48 squares, a border and an edging, each featuring a different stitch pattern or technique so the whole project is a masterclass in knitting. As well as written instructions, charts are included for each of the squares.

This ‘Heel and Close Stitch’ pattern uses a stitch pattern familiar to sock knitters – heel stitch - combined here with its close relative, close stitch. This square will lie flat and looks good, if different, on both sides.

All my ravelry patterns are free to download but, if you enjoy them,
please consider making a donation to the British Liver Trust where
the money will go to fund research and support the families of
children with a liver disease. You can do this easily by going to my
fundraising page here

Happy Knitting!
