“The fun of making a classic granny is in using a variety of color combinations in more or less random patterns --with the last round of every square being worked in black… the colors can be whatever you have on hand… Use the same weight of yarn throughout the afghan … For washability purposes, we suggest not mixing wool yarn and synthetic yarn in the same afghan.”
