Mitered Square Quadrant Blanket
This is a small preview of some of what I knit during the "summer of chaos" kitchen renovations. I needed something simple but fun to keep myself sane. Thank goodness for the mitered square!
I cast on about 250 stitches and started knitting. The blanket is made up of four huge squares, each about 30" x 30".
I used a yarn I discovered online last year called Jojoland Rhythm. It has very long repeats of color which I thought would make nice looking squares. This one is for my nephew Benson.
Now for the seaming!

That's a great idea for that yarn. I have a couple of bags of the Jojoland Melody yarn; it's really pretty stuff.
I can't wait to see the finished blanket.
Beautiful!
WOW I love it! It makes perfect use of the yarn.
So pretty. You certainly did pick the right yarn for that project.
Okay, how did you manage to post so many posts without me noticing? Other than tax deadline tomorrow, but still. It's not as if I haven't been surfing the net.
Anyway, cute blankie! And now I'm off to Ravelry to critique your Avatar.
The blanket is so beautiful! I want one! :-)
That blanket is gorgeous!
What a gret idea, and it is turning out SO totally gorgeous. Love all the shifting colours and variegation. Too cool.
Just the shading of that yarn! Gorgeous ;)
When I first looked at the picture, I thought it was Trekking 100 sock yarn. It's going to be an awesome blanket!
That's beautiful! Thanks for your kind comments recently about Ravelry...I did finally make it in!
