Knitting Today: Square Five of the Midwinter Blanket

 Life has gotten ahead of me.  Again.  Finally I finished knitting Square Five just as the Knit A Long is about to end.  Here is the square on the blocking board. Now that I look at it spread out, it may be that there are more errors than one. Oh well.  It is a blanket.


You can see that I am using up the yarn that I have in the bin!  These colors do not match any of the other colors but it is a blanket.  Mostly the people using it will be asleep so color coordination does not probably matter.

This morning I cast on for Square Six, which is the final pattern.  Tomorrow is the day the wind-up of the Knit A Long happens with instructions on how to sew all the squares together and how to knit a border.  I will watch the instructions even though I am not making an entire Midwinter Blanket. I believe I have mentioned I am just adding these squares to the already-in-progress Barbara Walker Learn To Knit Afghan which I had started months ago to use up all the Hilda Yates yarn.  Making progress!!
