Stress has been kicking in to make sure I have got enough knitting, yarn, tools, drinks, etc for the trip to come.
We are all supposed to make up a square especially for this trip so that all the sqaures will be sewed up together to make a blanket for this trip as a memory.
I have been trying very hard to think of what to make! Something that represent me and some new technique that I have never tried before...
Here is the result...
No, I am joking! It was the back of my square using intrasia technique. It is my first intrasia project ever. Here is the front:
Actually, I have kind of cheated since it is not me who have done the design, it is you-know-who (note to those who don't know: the man who is the graphic designer behind YarnCat).
So what does this square said about me? Here is the official entry to the booklet of the retreat I have handed in:

My square has a white background with intarsia cats in purple and green on it. The reason I chose this pattern is very simple: I love cats, I am working on getting a qualification to be Cat Behaviourist. The choice of colour: Purple is the colour of Bauhinia, which is the emblem of Hong Kong and green is for the Shamrock; the symbol of Ireland. It is my first intarsia project so far.
I wonder what will it look like after all of the square got sew up together and how will the trip turns out. Check this space for updates after this weekend.
