NEEDLES AND NOTIONS
Knitting needles, size 7 / 4.5 mm or size to obtain gauge
GAUGE
1 mitered square (20 rows) = 2½” / 6 cm
Gauge is measured after blocking. To save time and ensure accurate measurements, take time to check gauge.
We know how benecial the rhythmic and repetitive motions of knitting can be for mental health, so we’ve combined these ideas with the Mindful Mosaic Blanket.
Take a little time each day to sit, check in with yourself and knit a simple little square. Each day, choose a color that represents your mood. The concept is similar to a temperature blanket, but focused on your feelings instead of the weather. By the end of the 357+ days it will take to create this blanket, maybe you’ll be able to notice some patterns, or just feel a bit more comfortable checking in with your emotions…. But no matter what, you’ll at least have a great new blanket!
