Better late than never (and I’m only slightly late), here’s my finished Granny Squares project:
I’m really glad I took the time to add the 4th strip of squares – it was really narrow before, and I think it looks much better now. I joined the squares with slip stitch because I liked the ridged effect, and I bordered it with a row of single crochet all around the edge – the design is already busy enough, so I thought I’d keep the edging simple.
Here’s a close-up:
See how the square is exactly the same size as the width of the top of the chair? I was hoping it would work out like that!
I love the color combinations! That is brown for the edging, right? It is awesome…good work.
Awesome!! It gives me hope that someday I’ll finish mine…
Good job!!
i love it June! I am trying to finish up a granny square project. Geesh it feels like forever. If you ever get sick of your throw you can send it my way it matches my living room to the T.
Thanks, ladies! Val, yes the edges are brown… the colours show up better in the photo I took for my first post for the throw: http://crochetalong.wordpress.com/2008/01/20/ive-started/
I really like the colors you used for this. It turned out fabulous. I may have to make me one in those colors sometime now.
