Why it was cool: Whether it was recording songs off the radio or making the perfect mixtape for a friend (or crush), cassettes were life. And don’t forget the trusty pencil for rewinding when the tape got all tangled up. Flashback moment: The stress of waiting to hit ‘record’ right when your favorite song came on the radio—no interruptions, please!

*where there is white I like to add in a white glow-in-the-dark yarn, but it is optional!
Also, feel free to change up the background color and the stripes/wheels to your liking – maybe you have an overall feel for the blanket if you are stitching a bunch of blocks together? For this one I just left it white to show that you can make a square block or just the cassette itself (both pattern options listed below). Customization’s are endless!
The best part of these graph patterns is that you can use any weight of yarn you would like. I like to stick with using the hook the yarn manufacturer recommends on the packaging, and using the same weight and brand for the entire block if you can (and the entire project if you are assembling a bunch of blocks together for a blanket).
Begin from the bottom left corner – diagonal row 1, as shown on the chart. Turn and continue with diagonal row 2 from left to bottom. Turn and continue with diagonal row 3 bottom to left, etc.
Starting points for each row:
L = LEFT
B = BOTTOM
T = TOP
R = RIGHT
For each of the squares in each row, the letter indicates the color – see the corresponding color legend below. The number indicates how many squares of that color you need to make. For example, A6 = color A in the next 6 squares. The number in brackets at the end references the total number of squares for that row.
MULTIPLE OPTIONS WITH THIS PATTERN:
- FULL SQUARE (this includes all 59 rows)
- RECTANGLE OF THE CASSETTE ONLY (starts on diagonal row 9, on the corner
of horizontal row L7 and vertical row B1)
