Knit blocks
I don’t know how many of you watch Knitty Gritty on DIY but Vicki Howell is having a Knit In on February 4th from 5pm to 11pm. I’m sure it’s to promote the Warm Up America project. They do great stuff, the site has some patterns and Knitty Gritty has quite a few patterns now for knit squares. Your donated squares will be put together to make afghans. Or you can send completed afghans… or better yet you can distributed completed afghans in your area. Check out the website for info on that.
I really liked todays show, the guest was Lily Chan and she showed us the blocks in this gorgeous baby blanket. My favorite was the reversible ribbed cable (bottom right block). It is a little advanced though. But i am sure with a little work i could eventually get one out. The patterns are on this page.
If you decide to make one or some let me know how yours comes out.

My 9 year-old son and I love this show. I tape it and we watch it in the evening. I was so mad at myself; I accidentally deleted this episode half way through. I know where to find the patterns but I like watching how it’s done.
Knit on!
