I needed a project to use up small amounts of yarn and I have come up with this colourful solution. It uses DK yarn, but it is quite loose and forgiving, so I have also added in some chunky and cotton yarns. I dont sew the squares together, but crochet them to the circles as I go along. It does mean that there is a lot of ends to be weaved in! It measures about 36 square at the moment (thats 240 squares). But I will continue adding to it.
