Knitting Needles - Size 50 (25 mm) (’Speed Stix’)

6-inch (17.25 cm) square of cardboard (for tassels)

An easy afghan knit on the diagonal from corner to corner. Four strands of yarn are held together throughout. Due to the nature of the fabric, gauge may vary throughout the knitting.

Worked in stockinette stitch with garter stitch border. Features four large tassels for the corners.

Because of the texture of Homespun, the fringe will fray when cut. If you prefer a non-frayed look you can knot the ends, knit or crochet a fringe, or use hairspray or Fray CheckTM by Dritz®.
