Notes

Finally making some use of my precious hand-dyes. Very relaxing and creative knitting for a change.

Will make 4 squares c. 40x40 cm each and then join them together to form a small blanket.

Square 1 finished on 8 Nov 2011.
Square 2 finished on 10 Nov 2011.
Square 3 finished on 13 Nov 2011.
Square 4 finished on 19 Nov 2011.
Picking the project up from the basket on 17 June 2014, sewing the squares together… (this is so embarrassing, took me just half an hour and 2 mugs of tea…)

After a couple of test rounds for other border solutions decided to go for a simple i-cord edging (according to Purlbee’s excellent tutorial); started on 18 June, finished on 21 June 2014. Total weight c. 350 g (used an old fish scale, not very precise).

Finished size: 90 x 90 cm.
