Granny Aggrivation: Question

Hi, everyone! I’ve been reading posts on Crochet Along for about two years now, but just decided to join.  (I know … what took me so long, right? )
Anyway, here’s a question I hope someone can help me answer.  Last summer I started on a granny square afghan for my fiance’.  I still [...]

Finally!

Okay well I was *desperately* trying to finish this afghan before I posted, but due to some other projects that came up (pirate-themed baby booties, for one… no really!), I only finished one strip of 6 for the Rose Garden afghan.
The pattern was one of Annie’s Attic’s free-pattern-of-the-days awhile back, and was called Vineyard or [...]

Kinda like a granny square…

 
This is kinda like a granny square, only a bit different. It’s the beginnings of the Round the Block afghan from the book 24-Hour Crochet Projects. Instead of making a lot of smaller squares, the square on this one will only get bigger until it becomes a 50×50ish-sized blanket.
I love the ruffles, and right now, [...]

Now I just have to make another 36 squares like these…
In other news, now we have so many group members I’ve been wondering who we all are! I’ve added a new page called Users (the link is [...]

Double Grannies

I had a variety of baby pink yarns and thought this grannie along would be perfect to use some of it up!  What great inspiration!  So, here are some grannies I’ve been working on.  I am using 2 threads at a time to make it a bit fluffier.  It will be a baby shower gift [...]

new look!

Hi again – I’ve been making some more tweaks to the site. I just noticed that the old site design did not say “by planetjune” etc at the top of each post, so we had no way of knowing who wrote each post, unless they signed it. Oops! So I’ve changed the site theme to [...]

dusting off the grannies

I started these last summer sometime, but then other projects started encroaching, pretty soon my older daughter started Kindergarten, then it was Halloween things and Christmas gifts to make.  So my cotton grannies were stashed in a bag and thrown into the spare room (= messiest room in the house).  But now, with this new [...]
