Where in the World

This map is not much use for planning your holiday but it is fun to have hanging on the wall. When you look straight at the knitting you see only stripes. When you move to the side the map magically appears.

The map is as small as it can be to make larger countries recognisable. If you live in a small country you may not be able to find it on the map.

You can make it in any type of yarn. I knitted tightly in 4 ply in Stylecraft Special 4 ply Aster (Discontinued) and Parchment. If you use thicker yarns it will be bigger.

You could use the map as part of an afghan. You would probably need to knit it less tightly, to keep it soft.

Illusion knitting is very easy because you use only two colours and never change colour in the middle of a row. If you can knit and purl you can make this.

The pattern has various versions of the chart, including one intended for tablet users, to make it as easy as possible for you to make this without ever losing your place.
