im making loads of squares as in 25 cast on and 50 rows of each square. Am also decorating some of the squares with beads etc ribbon n buttons. Am making this lot into a blanket. I not sure how to sew it togteher tho. Would i use wool or cotton?


What yarn are you using for the squares? they should always be sewn together with a comparable yarn. there are different ways to sew together knitted pieces. how do you want them to look?

Have you thought about making strips instead of squares--the colors could be in squares, but it will eliminate the need to sew together in one direction. then you could sew them together with a blanket stitch and the seams will be almost invisible.

We used to knit strips to be sewn up for blankets.

I agree with the others. Use the yarn that you're knitting with rather than cotton.
