A Square Post

(Don't you love when someone cares enough to find a place to hang a found mitten or glove? I came across this scene the other day . Warmed my heart knowing lots of people do this for others.) (Have you seen one lately? )

About the squares. I am knitting noro 4 inch squares right now. I want to seam and knit them into the " page 81 baby booties pattern. " I need to work on my seams. This will certainly force me to do so.

I like knitting squares. Simple. Garter. I discovered I really cannot know it is a square until I measaure it. Everytime I think it is square, it measures not so. So, I can't trust my eyes!

I will share my favorite Squares recipe:

This is a recipe from Nestle. Raspberry Chocolate Chip Squares

1 1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup stick butter or stick margarine

1/2 C chopped pecans
1/3 cup brown sugar
6 Tblspn softened butter
1/2 cup raspberry jam
2 Cups toll house morsels

For the crust:

Cut in butter until mix is coarse crumbs
Press into bottom of greased 9x9 pan
Bake at 375 for 18 to 22 minutes

For topping:

Cut in butter until crumbly

First:
Spread the jam over the hot crust.
Then

sprinkle chocolate chips over that.
