Granny Square-O-Rama!!!

Granny Squares are an easy crochet pattern for anyone with some yarn and a hook. I like them because I can knock them out in hardly any time and use whatever color scheme I want. I can keep email all the same, or change them up. I can make them as small or as big as I want. I can put them in any pattern I want, it's all up to me. The granny stitch is pretty versatile on its own. You don't have to keep it square. Make as many corners as you can, or keep it round. Use different yarns for different textures, just as any other stitch.
The squares I've got here, are for a blanket I'm making for our bed. It's going to be very vivid and bright and awesome.
I've been using Schachenmayr Original Bravo yarn for this project. The same yarn I use  to make the perfect triangle scarf I posted about before. Same colors too! I love this yarn so much. It's an acrylic DK weight yarn made in bright colors. I order this yarn from Craftsy. It's usually on sale, and I can get it a decent price. They've listed other yarns made by Schachenmayr also.
To make these granny squares, I've been using a size D/3 hook. I really like the stitch tightness with this yarn and hook together. Smaller hook doesn't work out, and neither does a bigger hook. So I suggest using a D Hook with this yarn.
Well, I hope this inspires someone to hook up a neat granny square blanket, top or pillow or something.
Until next time,

Update on the scarf!

This is the edging I'm using on the latest triangle scarf. I found it on Pinterest. I knew I wanted to use it on something, but couldn't figure out what I wanted use it on. I also couldn't figure out what I wanted  to finish it up with. So, I was looking and looking, going back and forth on what edge I wanted, didn't know If I as going to use an edge, I just wasn't sure. Then I tried it out, kinda liked it, and decided to go with it. =) I'm not finished yet. But as soon as I do, I'll post it. I really like this scarf. It's soft and drapes really well. It's kinda thin, but not too thin. I used Cascade Yarns Cherub Dk yarn. So its still going to be warm, but to too bulky.
I will be getting back to my other projects once this is done, but I do need to be taking some serious etsy time, and post everything I've got to post. It's a lot. I'll post and share when I've done that.
So, have any of you been working on anything crafty this year?? If so, tell me about it and post pictures. I'd love to read about it! Maybe we can work on a washcloth swap or something of that nature.
Until next time,
