My First Granny Square Blanket

I have made a start on what should be a long term crochet project, but at the moment I am really enjoying it. So its moving along a little quicker than expected, but I'm sure my pace will slow soon if not from being crocheted out, then from my hands giving up on me.

I spent about 2 weeks looking around the web for inspiration and ideas and you will see I have been very much inspired by According to Matt - Glorious Granny Greatness!!! and he was inspired by Attic24 - Summer garden granny square. I do not intend to be a copy cat I would like to add some of my own additions like perhaps some African flowers, so watch this space as the granny square grows.


This is what I have done so far. These are just the middles, I will still have to do the third colour and then then the fourth bordering colour. So lots to be getting on with!!

So 40 partly down only 360 to go....
