Well, knitting the squares is going well. I've done 40 of them so far and once the two that are on the needles are finished, I'm going to wash them. I figured that if I wash them in batches of 40, then I won't have too much to do.
The next batch of 40 will be knitted half-and-half colour squares. Cast on a colour, purl a row and on the next row introduce a colour on the last stitch (intarsia knitting technique). After that, increase the new colour by knitting one extra stitch of the second colour and decreasing the first colour by a stitch. Eventually, the square will be finished by casting off in the second colour.
Colours will be moderatly randomly picked. There are colour combinations I cannot abide, like red and green (any shades) or bright yellow and royal blue.
Other than that, if it looks ok, it gets knitted.
Wish me luck.
