STYLECRAFT PATTERN 9232: Square in a Square Experiment

Do you have this pattern 9232?

why not try it in a different yarn and colour...

Stylecraft pattern no. 9232

One of my favourite patterns and the colour and yarn combinations you could use are endless

I've been sampling the new Stylecraft Sundae dk and Malabar dk and a new 

Square in a Square blanket

This is the pattern in 10 Shades of green, 

blue, grey and oatmeal...

Special Colours use  

Sage

Spring Green

 Parchment

Stone,

Camel

Mocha

Cloud Blue

Sherbet

Lemon

Silver

Grey

as a different colour way for the original 2 colorer square option

But having some left overs, I've been making a 9232 in

Sundae dk 

Mint chip, Raspberry Ripple, Blueberry Sorbet, Blackberry crush 

and Malabar dk 

in Buttermilk

When you buy a pattern don't feel you always need to use the same colours or the same yarn....

EXPERIMENT

have fun and make it your own.
