WIP Wednesday-Handspun Mitered Afghan Squares

It's WIP Wednesday and I've been spindle spinning my Phat Fiber contributor box samples while my GF and I watch movies and relax in the evenings.

One of the women on the Phat Fiber Ravelry Group forum inspired me with her own similar project, to knit my little handspun mini skeins into mitered afghan squares.

This is the perfect project for me! I love making small, repetitive pieces that travel easily and give me some instant gratification, but that are assembled into one impressive whole project.

Why did I not think of this myself, and sooner? I grew up sewing scrap quilts with my grandmother, so this definitely touches a special place in my heart. Plus the little skeins and little squares are so cute!
