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:

Miter On!

Thanks so much to Rachel for starting this KAL. It's the perfect thing for me since the blanket I intend on making is gift. It's for a dear friend's baby-to-be. She'll find the gender out on the 24th..but I'm not sure I can wait that long to start it!!
I have knit with Tahki cotton before and have to say I'm not a huge fan. I was wonder what people thought about Cotton Fleece by Brown Sheep Company? They seem to have a large variety of colors.
I'm planning on the blanket being 9 squares. Other than that, it's still in the formative stage! Need to make a trip to the LYS to ponder...

Can't wait to see what else folks get up to on this KAL. Cara was such an inspiration!
