Notes

I have decided to make a lap blanket using spiral squares.
The spiral squares are knitted from the center using 5 double pointed needles.
The main difficulty is in starting the spiral square as you must be very careful not to twist your double pointed needle.
From the center I rotated the color as follow:
Lilac
Orange
Beige
Green
Mustard
Changing the color of the center every time.

For the moment I made 5 squares, I am going to try to find some other patterns for spiral squares to compose the lap blanket.
