A little while ago I started my very first granny squares blanket. It was during the time when I wasn’t feeling so well. I felt the need to do something, so this was nice to do after the girls were in bed and I could just sit and crochet.
I started it by using some yarn I had in my stash (all are Lily Sugar n’ Cream brand). Although turns out the gold color is discontinued!!!! I found this out when I ran out of what I had and couldn’t find it any where. I felt so blessed to find a lady that carries discontinued yarns in her online shop! I bought a bunch of them so I wouldn’t run out again. That was a close one. I had already done quite a few squares and would have been a little sad to not be able to finish it.
I used a pattern from the above book. It’s a fairly easy block and I’m just using that same one and changing the colors those four times. I can’t wait until it is finished! And since this one is for miss E, J has told me she gets one next.

Very nice colors! My niece is doing her house in those colors. Nice crocheting too. Fun!
Beautiful colors! I’ve just finished my first one 😀 I’m so proud!
Wonderful!
Those are such lovely colors! So glad you were able to find more gold.
Your squares look great so far. I’m so glad you were able to get some more yarn. That would have been a total bummer. I just ordered this book from Amazon. Looking forward to “grannying” this summer!
So pretty!
Beautiful! Although I know how to knit, I’m really new to crocheting, but I’d love to do a granny square blanket! So old-timey and adorable :0
That’s going to look beautiful! The color combo is fabulous 🙂
This will be beautiful! I have been intending to make a granny square pillow cover for some time but haven’t yet started! This makes me want to move it up on the list.
These are lovely granny squares! I love you r choice of colors!! Would you mind telling me the name of the granny square pattern? Thanks 😉
Thank you 🙂 Of course I will share that info haha It’s the Pink Lavender pattern on page 82. I actually did finish this blanket up in June. Now I just need to share it! Happy crocheting 🙂
