Product Details

Shadow knitting is colourful and fun. From above you see stripes but viewed from an angle an owl appears.

This technique is well suited to a beginner knitter.

Instructions are both charted and written.

Techniques used: Knit, purl, two-row stripes, cast on, bind off, weaving in ends.

Finished size: Approximately 23 x 23 cm / 9 x 9 inches.

I have made a dishcloth but this square could also form part of a blanket project.

Yarn: Drops Paris 75 m/50 g (82 yds/1.7 oz); one skein in Cream (Yarn A) and one skein in Pale Blue (Yarn B).

Needles/Notions: 4.5 mm (US 7) needles at least 25 cm/10” in length. Tapestry needle

Gauge: 20 sts and 32 rows to 10 cm (4 inches), measured in background pattern stitch after blocking. Gauge is not crucial for this project.

This pattern has been tech edited and test knitted.
