Needelework Monday : My Granny Square Blanket

Hello Steemit Crafters!

Today I´d like to share with you the blanket I made out of granny squares. The size of this project was not really planned, I just crocheted the squares during train rides to and from work until I found out that the number of squares were huge enough to make a blanket.

I ordered the 100% cotton yarns online but wasn´t sure how many I would be using because I didn´t plan the blanket... The first batch had been boring colors and what I did was to mix the 2nd batch order with some vivid colored yarns.

As far as I can remember, each square took me between 20-30 minutes to finish and that is about one way ride in the underground station to the office. Also everytime I went home in the afternoon, I also crocheted one square and that made me 2 squares a day.

After I attached the squares together, I used another cotton thread which have been in my stash, the only difference to the yarns used in the squares is the quality of the thin yarn to be used. So to level-up the thickness, I doubled the yarn and made the blue and green frame edges.. And that ´s it, I hope you like what you see.

Happy crafting everyone!
