Completed Granny Project



This is one little afghan that you can't lose in a room. It certainly makes its presence known. However, it does speak happy to me and I love happy!

My girlfriend picked out this project. Initially three of us were doing this and we were going to swap squares but there was a marked difference in size so we all did our own.

It was a really neat project and has given me a whole new perspective on the granny square and its variations. I told her that she has to pick out a June project now as she does such a good job in finding fun and satisfying crochet.















AND...no yarn purchases. This was from all yarn lefover from other projects and what I had on hand.

Here's to granny squares in the future!
Cheers and Happiness!
