Winter Holiday Season Colors Granny Square Afghan
"This pretty Winter Holiday Season Colors Granny Square Afghan. The lacy border really dressed up the beautiful Holiday colors. It was very easy to complete. The hardest part was figuring out what I wanted to do next. When I started making these granny squares, I had no idea on what the end result would be. This is one of those projects where you just start and see where the yarn takes you. This crochet pattern includes both the written directions and a video tutorial on making the granny squares."
NotesThere is a total of 20 granny squares to this beautiful crochet blanket. The ends are weaved in before adding the border and joining. Finally, the lacy crochet edge adds just the prefect amount of pretty lace to show off the colors in this beauty.
