Don’t Be Square
The first square of a forty-nine-square baby blanket I’m knitting for my brother’s forthcoming sprog.
The whole blanket will be knitted in Knit Picks Swish DK, on Denise interchangeable needles. The pattern is the Circle of Friends Garter Stitch Blanket (except that I don’t have any friends helping me) from Joelle Hoverson’s Last-Minute Knitted Gifts.
Yes, I realize that it’s kind of sad that I have to follow a pattern for something this simple, but there you have it—I am a follower of patterns. I measure most of the ingredients when I cook, too. At least I changed the yarn and colors. This square is in Moss (as in The IT Crowd). Next up: Storm (as in X-Men). I will try as hard as I can to encourage this kid to be a geek.
