Pink Saturday-Giant Granny Square Blanket

Pink Saturday-stop on over to Beverly our lovely hostess and check out all of the links. http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com//

I am participating in a Giant Granny Challenge, more of a crochet along really.  You can read all about it over here:  http://lemondedesucrette.wordpress.com/2011/06/29/giant-granny-challenge/ .  This is the first post and she has a few more since.  There is also a space on flicker http://www.flickr.com/groups/sucrettes-giant-granny-challenge and even one on https://www.ravelry.com/ and a button has been made.  It's been really nice to follow the posts and see how different people have help bring each piece of this together.  So come on what are you waiting for join in the fun.  Also, I remembered in my faviorite saves, I had saved a tutorial from Purl Soho that can be found here:  http://www.purlbee.com/the-purl-bee/2009/3/24/joelles-giant-granny-square.html.  I'm at about 19 rows here, of course these are the fun ones, now they start to get a little more time consuming with each color row.  All is all, it is a simple no brainer project and just plain relaxing and fun, great way to use up those scraps, I happen to be using wool, but acrylic works just fine also.




Have a great day, enjoy the color...the color pink especially!!! Hugs, Michelle

Happy Pink Saturday Michelle Sweetie...
What a gorgeous share today. Your talents totally amaze me. I wish I had the talent to crochet, but was told I have two left hands, and believe me when it comes to crocheting I am hopeless. Yes I am.

So, I will totally enjoy gazing at this beauty that you are making. Simply divine sweet friend.

Hope you are well. Have a gorgeous weekend. Many hugs and much love from Phoenix, Sherry

I love crochet and have several pieces, but have never tried to do it. You certainly do nice work.

Fun ! I'm a hooker, too and I love projects that use up scraps and left over bits !!!! I'm working on a couple of baby blankets and a hexagonal scrap these days...

Happy Pink Saturday !

I love these quilts, and have done one in the past. I think I'll be dusting off my crochet hook again.

This week, my contribution is a desktop screensaver calendar. Happy Pink Saturday from the UK!
