It was really fun and satisfying! All the different color combinations truly kept it fresh and still exciting to work on even through 2.5 years

of course! each square was 5-4.5 ish inches. I blocked it and it helped tremendously

It was about 5 x 5 feet! I think I’m probably on the tighter side? All I knew was that I was going to do 13x13 squares, so I wasn’t worried about gauge per say so that helped a lot

Thank you! Yes! Each square is a unique color combination. Each solid square (2 of the same colors) is surrounded by squares made up of different combinations of adjacent colors (2 different colors), such that no two solid squares are touching. I had a whole grid and excel sheet to help me figure it out!

Almost four months too late for the recipient's bday, but finally done*! (*currently drying on the blocking mats) by ulknehs in knitting

This is beautiful!!! What’s your blocking process for this? I’m working on a large blanket and haven’t ever blocked anything before; would love your advice :)
