Product Details

Square Deal Redux is an arrangement of 21 different size squares. It is thought to be the smallest number of different smaller squares that can make up a larger square.

The squares are easy but different from other squares you might have made. They do not use the numbers usually needed to make squares that will lie flat and fit together.

There is no other way to create this arrangement without making an afghan that is much too big for practical use. The result is a fairly dense fabric with squares that undulate very slightly. Unlike most of our designs these squares do not automatically lie flat. Once they are joined together they help to keep each other flat and blocking helps still further.

Double Knitting (DK) yarn is recommended. Thicker yarns would make the afghan very big and heavy. Thinner yarns would work well but create a smaller afghan.

Each square is the same as the size before with an extra band added. I used four colours but any number of colours could be used.
