The Milestone Collection

Celebrate life’s big numbers. From birthdays to anniversaries, these crisp numerical blocks allow you to commemorate the dates that matter most in heirloom-quality knits.

Note from Cecilia: I’m currently giving the Oh La Lana! library a major renovation in the open. I am working through 10 years of designs to update charts to high-contrast versions, refresh photos with the 52SP badge, and ensure every link is perfect. You may see two gallery styles living together during 2026 as I migrate everything to this new, better home for knitting lovers. 

Thank you for your patience as I polish these resources for you!

Idea to use these blocks

You can use all number blocks to make a colorful blanket or playmat. Browse my free patterns to pick two more blocks and, in case you need it, read my blog post on how to join knitted squares.

In case you decide to make them into a playmat, pick a good cotton yarn, or cotton / acrylic blend. Your playmat will be machine washable and it will hold better the frequent cleaning.
