Notes

Oct. 2010. My first granny squares blanket and my first ever project using acrylic! I’ve made a test square, my first ever granny square. A few glitches that will need ironing out, but I think I get it. On the back burner now until after the Christmas knitting…

Jan 2011. With the help of Meet Me At Mike’s instructions and videos, I’ve finally cracked the Granny Square. After some browsing around, circle-in-a-square seems the perfect pattern. Now to attempt a granny a day…

May 2011. Still granny-ing, slowly but surely.Need to have a think about the best way to join the squares.

July 2011 Have started joining using the technique used in this pattern:

Joining with white. 8 squares x 10 squares is the plan.

Jan 2012. Ahem! Still only 50 squares in, now trying again to do a granny a day, but this time I have Twitter and #agrannyaday to help me. Watch this space…
