Inspired by an incredible crocheted afghan project I found in a Better Homes and Gardens Treasury of Needlecrafts book from 1982 that I purchased while thrift shopping one day, I decided to embark on designing my own crocheted granny square sampler afghan. I posted about this idea and invited everyone who was interested to join in with me. On May 18, 2012, I began posting granny square block weekly “assignments”, the idea being to work on completing the assignment and learning the square over the following week. Crocheting individual squares like this is a perfect summer project, as well as an ideal take along craft. My plan was to complete the individual granny square sampler afghan by summer’s end.
