It’s time for our weekly puzzle! My apologies for not posting last week﹣we were on the road.
This week’s puzzle, like the hexagon puzzle I posted a while back, can easily be done via counting on, but this time, there’s a twist: consecutive squares on the path need to be connected by the move of a chess knight instead of being straightforwardly adjacent! This makes for an appealingly tricky puzzle apart from the arithmetic.
