Granny fun


I like to make granny squares. I think they get a bad rap. They are easy and quick.

I wanted to make some 12 inch squares for the Crochet Dude and his favorite charity,Heartmade Blessing. Going thru the "ol' scrap" bag, I decided to blend different variegated yarns to see what happened. I REALLY like the results. I think it gives inexpensive yarns like Red Heart, Caron etc a handpainted look... My best results came from yarns that looked totally different from each other. I recommend trying it..
