So I chose the brightest yarn I could find, magenta, red, orange and burgandy. Completely Bright and almost clashy.
The idea was to complete a different square from the jan eaton book for each of the 36 squares. And I love the result.
It was cool that sine squares that didn’t take my fancy as much in the book looked totally different and eye catching on my blanket, but the opposite can also be said (I am looking at you, willow square)
I used the pom pom border I found online and though it took awhile it was so worth it.
It was slow going having to read the pattern for each square, there was no getting into a groove really but it kept my brain engaged throughout. I chose only round and round (not rows) squares as I have learnt the hard way these are so much easier to join.
Fave squares:
Big round
Dahlia
Peony
