project linus

About a month or so ago I knitted a couple of squares that will be part of a Project Linus blanket.

Honestly, I had never knitted a square before.. or even anything that had to be specific dimensions- not so easy. The first square was a little too wide and the second square was a little too long. Oh well.. I'm sure it will still keep the lucky recipient just as warm.

Well, I didn't knit in public on Saturday.. and I almost didn't even knit at all, but at the end of the day I managed to knit a few rows.
