What you need to know

Try your hand at double moss stitch in Part Three of Susie Johns blanket

We’re switching back to knitting for Part Three of our make-along. This square is made up of simple knits and purls which alternate every two stitches to make a wonderfully textured double moss stitch. This is also known as Irish moss stitch and is one of our favourite stitches. If you want to use this effect on another project, you will need to have a multiple of four stitches.
