Notes

After viewing some blankets online I’m going to proceed as follows:
A-Rouge
B-Cornflower
C-Canary
D-Peapod

so my combinations will be (main+contrast):
Rouge+Cornflower
Cornflower+Green
Green+Canary
Canary+Rouge

I think…need to see the yarns together IRL to be sure.

Changed from stockinette to garter so I didn’t have to purl lol and I love how it looks. Also going to join as I go ala the Hue Shift afghan I did earlier.

Realized I can’t join as I go like Hue Shift as construction is different. Found this and will give it a try: http://www.masondixonknitting.com/hints-tips/blanket-finishing/no-sew-mitered-square-blanket-an-epic-tutorial/

Decided trying to join as I go was too stressful so I just started the next square and will join after. Wish life was calmer so I could concentrate on making it work.
