Crochet Granny Square True Colors…

.

The Squares are done and ready to join together… My grandson was the recipient of my First True Colors Afghan… This one is slightly larger… Eli’s was a total of 35 – 6 inch squares…This one is 48 – 6 inch squares… His turned out the perfect Twin topper… Depending on how I join this one… it should top a full size bed…

On another note… I only have 2 more Granny Squares to finish up my True Colors Afghan,,, I will post the pictures tomorrow!!  Then,,, The joining… I am trying to decide my method… I have two ways… A simple SC in the back loops of each block, creating a window pane effect on the back,,, OR a Flat Braid method… Also very nice…  Well,,, I will decide that when I lay it out!!

So here is to Elk Studio and Her Great Designs,,, and Finishing up my True Colors Afghan!

Flowers and Chains… Feminine Crochet!!!

.

I wanted to share a few more things I have whipped up… These super feminine Flowers and Chains Crochet Scarves are so stylish and they were super easy to make…  They can be worn in several ways and are great all year round to spruce up your wardrobe!  The purple/green one reminded me of pansy’s and the orange/yellow reminds me of poppy’s…  They can be worked up using your stash yarn… I will be working out the pattern for you soon and these two are available on my Etsy Shop
