Granny Square Day 2018

It was Granny Square Day on the 15th August so it would have been churlish not to take part.

A bit different from the regular Granny Square - just wanted to try this out for future reference.

Also at the same time I made some more crochet covers for some pebbles which are now out in our garden among the gravel so it will be interesting to see how they weather.

Filling in time with Granny Squares

I was in between crochet projects, having finished my Woodland Blanket and waiting to visit the Spring Knitting and Stitching Show in London, so I made a small hit on my stash by making some Sunburst Granny Squares to use as a cushion cover.

I used shades of blue and grey together with white to make the nine squares and once they were together and blocked I stitched them on to a plain grey cushion cover.

Footnote:   Never did make it to the Knitting and Stitching Show as it fell the same weekend we had snow which brought the rail network to a standstill.   Have to be contented with a weekend of online shopping to get some of the things on my shopping list but there's nothing like having a good look before you buy!  Will have to think hard now about Ally Pally in October.
