Counterpane is composed of squares each made up of 4 smaller squares.
You can use DK or worsted/Aran weight yarns for a bedspread or afghan/blanket size.
Finer yarns could be used to create a baby blanket but you can certainly work any number of squares in any weight yarn to create whatever size you desire.
Knitting the squares are a great take along project
