KNIT: Scrap leftover yarn into squares

July 22 2021

 to make a blanket

started this sometime beginning of 2021. Using scraps of yarn leftover from projects over the years I knit squares. Finally a cool day and I cleared off the harvest table and was able to design a patterns and separated each pile into a plastic bag. will sew together by hand eventually.

I think I need more squares for an edging to make it just a little bigger

pattern:

#8 circular needles work with 2 squares at a time separate needles I hope that makes sense.

cast on 20 stitches

slip 1 knit to end , repeat for 36 rows and cast off.

well finally sewn together. After many mismatches of squares etc it is sewn together and now just needs the ends woven in. That may take awhile!

undoing and re doing

the clothes pins helped to keep me on track and not turn something the wrong way. phew that took forever.
