Our latest creation is a free knitting pattern for an Interlocking Hearts Square!
This square would work great as a washcloth or dishcloth , or you could put it together with some of the other squares to make an afghan. It would go particularly well with the wedding bells, love, and heart patterns.
Size and Materials
Size depends on yarn and needle size used:
With DK/Light Worsted Weight yarn and 4 mm (US 6, UK 8) knitting needles, finished squares are approximately 22 cm x 22 cm (8.5 inches x 8.5 inches)
With Worsted Weight yarn and and 4.5 mm knitting needles (US size 7, UK size 7) finished square is approximately 26 cm x 26 cm (10 inches x 10 inches)
Any sized needle and yarn can be used (please refer to yarn label for recommended needle size), however different needle and yarn sizes will produce different sized squares, so if you plan to make an afghan or a set of these it is best to use the same needle size and yarn for each square.

I was so excited to find your website. I have used several of your designs which are
amazing.
I would like to make an Afghan for my niece who is a artist do you know if your design team will be posting a Paint brush or any other items that have to do with folks that like to draw.
Again thank you & your team for all your hard work that goes into making these wonderful designs. Linda
Thanks Linda 😊 I’ll add paintbrush to my list to make – will be a few weeks as the list is quite long at the moment
Thank you so very much
Yea! Just in time for Valentine’s Day. Thank you, Linda.
