This is a bright, simple geometric square based on the octagonal motif in “Painting with Light”. It lends itself to infinite colour combinations but for a true stained glass effect the ‘lead’ rounds should contrast strongly with the colours chosen for the ‘glass’ panels.

The square shown was worked in DK weight yarn with a 4.5 mm hook, and measures 5” x 5”. Once the stitch counts and colour placements are understood it could of course be extended to any size.

Thank you very much to my valued testers Norah, Di, Berniece, Thea and Margie - you’re all superstars!
