Above is the first ever granny square I have ever crocheted! I am so proud of it. I honestly thought I’d never be able to do one – they looked so complicated, but in all reality they’re not! This one was super simple. I’m thinking about making a video tutorial on how to do your own. 🙂
After I get done crocheting the afghan, doing the cross stitch ornament, and finishing the plastic canvas wall hanging (all Christmas presents for my family) I think I’m going to make a granny square blanket. I’m going to make more of the pink and white one, like above, and then do purple and white ones and put it together. I think that would be really pretty. Then closer to Christmas 2013 I want to make a green, red, and white one possibly.
I’m a 20-something stay-at-home mother and wife. I have an amazing husband, a beautiful daughter, two loving dogs, and a lazy cat. I wouldn’t change my life for anything! I love to read, listen to music, cook and blog!
You’re already ahead of me! I haven’t even made granny squares (unless you count the stocking ornaments… they are a granny square folded) in my entire crocheting adventure. My mom really want’s a crocheted blanket from me and so I have some ideas using granny squares. One day the time will come. Maybe this spring while I’m nesting. 🙂
Wow! I can’t believe I’m ahead of you! Those stocking ornaments you made are adorable. I’d love to see the pattern for it if you don’t mind sharing it with me. 🙂
Great job! I learned how to do a granny square earlier this year and made some hot pads with them to sell on my Etsy shop out of cotton yarn. Hope all of your projects go great – have fun!
Blessings
Thank you! Good idea with the hot pads! I’m going to have to check out your Etsy shop!
Thank you for visiting! Have a great week!
It’s very pretty!
Thank you, Rose! Have a great rest of your week!
