I found a “kit” in a previous Knit It! publication that has been discontinued. It’s called “Multi-square Knitted Afghan Kit” (item number QBD102350). It looks pretty easy to do without the kit, IF I KNEW HOW to make the squares. The kit includes circular needles…If anyone knows how to do this–or has the actual pattern–I’d be deeply indebted! Thanks!!!

Does this “kit” have the instruction leaflet with it? That would let you know how to make the square but I don’t see how the circular needle would be used in the center to start the square as to work it there would have to be a lot of stitches so you would not have to stretch the stitches to make the small hole . I would go for the double pointed needles [4 to a set] and start out with that as you can put just a minute amount of stitches on it and increase as you go along. As far as the pattern I don’t have it but will try to help with it any further than the above. If you need any more help check my avitar and e-mail me.
Cast on 4 sts.
*Knit 1, slip 1, knit 1, slip 1, turn at end of row* repeat once.
*YO, knit 1, YO, slip 1, YO, knit 1, YO, slip 1, turn at end of row* and it gets worse from there.
It is possible to knit from the center out with just two needles (as the ends of a circular), increasing 8 stitches (2 at each corner) every other round, knitting YO’s and the stitches that look like knit and slipping the stitches that look like purls. I don’t recommend the hassle unless you just want to prove to yourself that you can do.
It is much, much easier to just use 5 double-pointed needles to begin and then, when the needles have filled, continue on the circular needle. Whatever, you’ll be increasing two stitches at each corner every other round.
