DISHIDENT #12<br />
by UKnitted Kingdom<br />
PATTERN DESCRIPTION<br />
Each issue of Blocked will contain a ‘secret’ pattern.<br />
The design will only be revealed as you knit.<br />
The instructions might uncover an image; a<br />
design, or a word/message.<br />
When using cotton these secret squares make<br />
excellent dishcloths. If you make 4 or 5 of each<br />
square in wool or acrylic they can be seamed<br />
together at the end of the year to make a small<br />
Afghan or lap blanket.<br />
