The Lone Corner Square

Hi, y'all! First of all, here's my miter progress:



Woo hoo! Oh, and that "Corner Square" in the title? It's not that pink and taupe one in the picture... It's this square:



...which was supposed to be this square:



BUT - because I'm an idiot - I overlooked the fact that you have to start with a backwards 7 as stated in the Mason-Dixon no-sew mitered square and picked one that was a regular 7. So that square is going to become this one instead (AKA The Lone Corner Square):

Hee hee - oops.

And oh, I started the hot pink and light pink miter (the one underneath the completed upper-right corner square) which IS a backwards 7, just upside-down. *Whew!*

That's all folks! Keep on mitering on!

Intro

Hi, guys! :)
My name is Manda, and I reside in Blogland at http://knitpsychos.hello-lovely.org.

Cara has been a great inspiration to my knitting. First the Jaywalkers, now the Mitered Square blanket. I see how and why they are so addicting, however I have things that "MUST GET DONE" right now... and this blanket is just a "eh. When I finish it, it'll be done" sort of project. I am feeling the Call of the Miter, though.

Yesterday, reinspired by this KAL, I knit a mitered square!! :) I have ideas for color combos, but I know I will forget... so I'm going to have to start writing them down. Or maybe borrowing the square template below. ;) heeh

Here are my squares so far:

I am NOT a Photographer.

Here is my MSA progress.





Pasting those check marks on the MSPaint layout is so satisfying!
