If you would like to knit a square at home, it is very easy. Just knit a square, 10 inches (25cms) square, in garter stitch; 8 ply acrylic yarn, 4mm needles. Leave the finished square with Dragana at the Seniors Centre. The members of the Knitting Group in Mosman will be very happy to include your square in the next wrap.
