Not this pie.

This Pi.

I really enjoyed making this one. I love the color combo and the pattern was interesting enough to keep me engaged throughout the square. Of course, it’s not reversible, and I really do like the ones that are “right” on both sides. Still, I think this one is in my top ten favorites for the whole blanket.

Post Edited for 5 Year Anniversary

This post has been edited to add an updated version of the Pi pattern to celebrate five years of geeking along. The graph is the same, but the pattern now includes more information. You can download the new Pi Pattern by clicking the link. Instructions for both knit and crochet are now listed in the pattern. When you’re finished making it, Instagram your squares at us @lattesandllamasyarn with the hashtag #geekalong! This now concludes the edited portion of this post.

Don’t forget to post links to your finished squares, so we can all ooh and ah together and if you’re having trouble with double-knitting, Jac and I recently shot a how-to video on the subject. You can find it here. There is also a Geek-A-Long group on Ravelry where we have prizes! ::insert eyebrow wiggle here:: As always, please hop on over to Child’s Play and show them your love*!
