Is it the socks, or the yarn?

Sock Yarn is addicting in all forms, as it turns out. Here's the start of my miter-square blanket.

The blanket is shaping up very nicely!

it looks great! you're not piecing them together as you go, are you? (I guess that would make it unwieldy for travel knitting).

the self-striping/patterning ones look so cool!

Yeah, I am piecing them as I go... more accurately, I pick up stitches from previous ones to do the next. So no, it's not great travel knitting... at least, not as it gets bigger. I'm thinking, however, of making four large "triangles" then attaching them together.

What a great idea! Not only is it a great use for leftover sock yarns, but it reminds me of quilts made from worn out clothes...full of memories of the originals...
