I'll make a bunch of squares and then find a way to connect them. They are knitted on the bias so I increase a stitch at the beginning of each row until I hit the middle the decrease at the beginning of each row until I'm back down to 1. Easy, portable and requires little thinking. This isn't a quick project but it does give my hands something to do before I crash into bed. These three were last nights progress. Knitted while I watched hockey.
