ABC Book
This knitted book may not be quite as easy as ABC… but it is a great way to try mosaic knitting and makes a beautiful keepsake.
The pattern was first published in Your Crochet and Knitting magazine, Issue 18, as Apple - Boat - Cat Baby Book. This is the updated version of the pattern with front and back covers added and written instructions provided.
Ten squares, A & Apple, B & Boat, C & Cat, D & Duck, Front & Back
Cover, are knitted in mosaic garter stitch. The front cover is worked in intarsia and mosaic garter stitch, however, intarsia can be omitted. To create a book page, two squares are crocheted together using a double crochet stitch. The pages are sewn together to create the book.
Sample was worked in Garnstudio Drops Safran 100% Cotton 5 Ply on 3 mm / US 2½ needles.

Main colour:
• Front & Back Cover Green

Choosing different yarn weight and corresponding needle size results in different size book and may require more yarn.
