Wow Donna. That is really different. To me, it looks like a piece of art that you would hang on the wall. It looks like it's going to be really warm and fluffy. I like it!

looks cool and for a non-knitter it looks complicated. Thanks for sharing. Haven't been doing too much lately, just a few baby hats and finishing up some blanket projects. Haven't decided what's next.

That's quite interesting. Looks like some modern art thing for sure. I think it would look really cute for a baby boy afghan in bright, modern colors. It sure is different. I wonder how well it will seem to fit together when you join the "squares." Are you enjoying making it?

Susan, this pattern is actually very easy. That's part of the appeal to me. It looks like it took more work than it really does. The only cumbersome thing is to start out with 2 stitches each on 4 dpns. You increase 4 stitches on every row, only at one end of each needle, hence the rotating square. Once I get about 8 rows done it's easier to handle. And to make things even easier, I measured out 5 yards at a time and made a slip knot in the yarn while I was making the first motif. Then I was able to figure out how much of each color I would need per motif. I cut pieces in the required lengths, starting with the outside color (white) and wound all of the colors into one little ball for each motif. This way I can take a ball with me in the car and not have to carry a skein of each color.

As you can see by the photo on Lion's website, once the square are stitched together the curve disappears. Because you do 5 rows of stockinette and 5 rows of reverses stockinette, the material kind of ripples and I think that will make it a bit warmer.

And the colors in my photo are a bit muted. They are still baby colors (except the cornflower blue), but they are a bit brighter than my photo.

I've been pondering doing another with worsted weight and just using some of my scraps and make it kind of like a patchwork quilt thingy.

That's very cool, Donna! and the photo from your phone is really good - I didn't know they took pix that good. The square has some interesting asymetry to it - or is that my imagination?

I think your worsted idea sounds pretty. Very homemade looking, which is so in right now. Show us a picture.
