Earlier in the year, I finished up one quadrant of my Hue Shift afghan,
and over the weekend, I finished up my second quadrant. I planned on knitting one square per day, but got sidetracked once or twice and had to catch up. Each square takes about 40 minutes to finish, assuming I don't get distracted.
I have a love/hate relationship with garter stitch. I love how squishy the finished fabric is, but I really hate knitting in garter (I love me some purling!). It seems to be harder on my hands since I have to "open up" each stitch in order to knit, whereas for purling, I can just slip the needle in and wrap the stitch with very little effort. It might just be my knitting style...
Anyway, these two sections finish up all of the solid color squares. Hopefully the color changes for the next two sections will be interesting enough to get them finished soon... and by soon I mean on this side of Christmas.
Wow! This is just gorgeous!
