Our latest creation is a free knitting pattern for a Sagittarius Star Sign Square! This is the second square in my new Zodiac collection (and happens to be my star sign – go Sagittarius!)- to see other squares and read more about the afghan, please click here. Of course, you can use this square on its own as a washcloth, or put it together with any of my other squares to make an afghan.

Size and Materials

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). I highly recommend Cascade Yarns 220 Superwash Yarn.

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). I highly recommend Cascade 220 (Aran)

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.

Chart Instructions

On Right Side: Knit white squares and purl black dots

On Wrong Side: Purl white squares and knit black dots

Cast on 45 stitches and start at bottom left hand corner of chart with a wrong side row (note that if you are making The Zodiac Afghan, do not work the first seven rows – the last seven rows of the Fire square form this border, instead start on row 8)
