101 things to do with a cube...

Well actually, I can only think of a few.


I really hate seaming things, so I was playing with my yarn and wanted to see if I could make a block all in one piece without having to sew it up after. First I knit the bottom, then picked up stitches on three sides of that "flap". Worked in the round until it was tall enough and then knit back & forth again while picking up stitches on the sides until the cube was done. I grafted the top-of-one-side to the side-of-the-top, wove in my ends and presto! a cube with no seams!
Baby blocks seem obvious, but I've got some other ideas for this particular cube...
