Knitting mitered squares is the perfect “potato chip knitting” project. They are so fun to knit, it’s almost impossible to knit just one. These squares can be joined together as you go or seamed together once all the squares are complete. In this class, knit designer Jen Lucas teaches you all the basics you need to know on knitting mitered squares. She’ll show you how to work the squares with different stitch counts, how to introduce stripes and color into your blocks, and how to seam them together or join as you go.
