My very first design!


I am so excited! I just designed my very first knitted item! I was working on a project for my husband and could not find a Michigan square in a design I liked, so I made my own.

Yarn: Lily Sugar 'n Cream Solid
Needles: Size US 7

Gauge is not important. The tighter the knit, the more the design will stand out.

Cast on 37 stitches
