I finished 50, 8 inch Granny Squares....
One of these little babies is going to be left out of the 7X7 afghan I have planned, although, I am not sure which one yet...
Now, I need to actually stitch them together!

I have several thoughts buzzing around in my head...
Can I do this?
I have never done this before...
I think I can...
I have been watching How To videos on You Tube...
Now if I can just follow directions...
Who knows...
I hope I didn't just crochet 50 squares to sit in my closet for years on end...

I don't think this was a waste of my time...
If I did, I don't think I would have invested in several skeins of Heather Gray yarn.
The plan is to use this yarn to connect all my squares...
I just need to decide on the style I want to use and then I can begin...
I wonder how long it is going to take to get these connected?
Wish me luck!
Great looking grannies. Yes, you can do it. Putting the squares together will be a little tedious, but it will be worth it when you're done. My favorite way to join grannies is called the 'flat braid' method. There is a link to the explanatory videos on the right sidebar of my blog. (You'll have to watch all 4 videos.) Have fun with it. :)
ReplyDeleteDebi- I watched the videos... I love it, but how do you make it bigger than the four squares she shows in the video?
DeleteWork the 1st square and then the 2nd square, then work your 3rd square right underneath the 2nd. Follow it with however many squares to make the length you would like. Your piece will look like a scarf. Let's say you made the piece 7 squares long, you will then start to attach your 8th square to the side of your 1st square - and then follow along with the rest of your squares. Like this:

Let me know if you have any other questions. :)
