Knit-oku?
I'm getting a little crazy about Scrabble as a thinking tool, I love it and I have a few games going at any given time. [Curse you, Facebook Scrabble, you will be my downfall!]
So instead of knitting up the Minoan skirt, I found myself watching Real Housewives of New York and working up this cross between a knit chart & a Scrabble game...
KNITOKU
The rules? It's like Sudoku. Every row & column should contain one of each symbol.
This should be an easy one - have at it!

You do NOT need to know what each symbol means to solve the puzzle. I also wouldn't recommend trying to knit it up...
I'll post the answer by Sunday.

I'd love to see what it looks like knitted up! It reminds me of the YA book "Sorcery & Cecilia or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot" where they knit secret messages to each other.
I'm not sure whether I should thank you or not for this! Instead of getting ready for work, I just printed it out... :-)
Not knit it up? That's the first thing I thought of!
I figured it out - a pleasant diversion at the end of the day. Thanks Annie!!
I got a bit confused because, unlike traditional Sudoku, there are the same symbols within a 9-block square.
Confusing, because as the comment above, there should be no duplications within the small squares. This needs a little more work, Annie.
When the Sudoku craze first hit, we made a few puzzles using color blocks instead of numbers -- plays a few tricks with one's head, but lots of fun to solve.
Maybe if I blocked it and weaved in the ends, it's be prettier?
