First, I saw Hoggirls’s Use IT All Up Blankie and loved it.

So i had to look up Bee Stitch and came across this: Bee Stitch Tutorial

The only problem is, in order for it to look right to me, I have to change colors after rows 1 and 3, not 2 and 4.

My only “rule” is going to be that I need to have a light/dark in each square. I am thinking the lights need to be neutrals like white, tan, offwhite, and pale yellow. We’ll see how that goes down the road.

Every 1st and 15th of the month, I plan on checking out my squares and taking an update pic.

8/1/10 - 19 squares
8/15/10 - 34 squares
9/12/10 - 74 squares
10/12/10 - 90 squares
1/15/12 - Start border!

I will be using this border but the last stitch I will use a k2tog through back loop as it’s faster and achieves the same purpose.
