granny squares

so, this is what i was making in the last post! granny squares!! i love to make them now, they are actually pretty easy & very fun. i love the colors i chose to make these ones with. i made almost all of them in one evening : ) they aren't perfect, but i'm still learning. i learned from this guy's helpful videos. try making them yourself!! i'm not sure what i want to do with them yet. i can't decide if i want to keep making them & make a blanket or just leave them single for like coasters or something.

hope your saturday morning is lovely!

nicola: oh i've missed you! hehe. & YES!! come stay with me!! i will have to return the favor : ) & that was exactly what i was thinking about reusing things. makes me feel good.

  6. so cute! do you knit or crochet? or both? haha.
    my mom crochets so well, but says she's too dependent on the hook and won't knit. i knit a little, but not enough to tackle any sort of actual project.haha.
