This design is included in my e-book, Gift List: 10 Knitted Gifts for Every Occasion.

These knitted squares, worked in two colours, combine the knit version with the purl version of Garter Stitch to create a design with “shadow play”.

When sewn together, these knitted blocks form a fully reversible blanket or afghan. A single block can also serve as a wash cloth when worked in cotton.
