Free pattern: Maple Leaf chart

This chart was designed for a gauge of 24 stitches and 28 rows in stockinette = 4" square.

It was designed after the logo of the Toronto Maple Leafs Hockey Club, although it is almost identical to the maple leaf design of the Canadian flag. In this pattern "MC" is obviously navy blue, and "CC" is white, although it would work equally well with red and white as in the Canadian flag!

Directions are given from the bottom (the stem) up to the top of the leaf, and will make a rectangle of 40 sts wide by 44 rows tall (about 6 2/3" x 6 1/4). It can be inserted into patterns for sweaters, hats, scarves, etc, with ease!

I designed it for a "hockey sweater" for my niece--you can see it in action here.
