Knitting holidays in France Stitch along - a knitting and crochet project designed by Carol Meldrum and Sue Culligan
This is the stitch along project that we designed for the first Lockdown in Spring 2021. The free patterns are still available to download below.
The designs are worked in double knit yarn and are great stash busters, using up lots of oddments of yarn.
Materials needed to complete one panel of 9 squares - approx 270g DK weight wool or wool mix yarn. Some of the knitted squares require a few Debbie Abrahams beads size 6.
You can back the cushion cover with fabric, or make a knitted or crochet backing.
You can vary the colours according to your stash, we have used mainly neutrals, green and blue with splashes of colour. See what everyone is doing here on the blog.
