Crochet Blanket Inspiration: Giant Granny Square


This was the first blanket I ever made! 

I made it as a way of learning how to crochet – it started off as a small granny square, and then I decided to use yarn scraps to make it bigger and bigger. It then became a non-scraps blanket, as Momma kept buying me yarn to use on it. When it was smaller I used to take it with me on the bus and to the doctors to work on it. It is now double bed sized, and lives folded in half on the back seat of my car.


The edging is bright pink picot – two rounds for the border! One treble, and then one with the picot. I don’t think I’ve made a granny square since.
