Hello!
A quick follow up for the giant granny challenge
Rules:
1- Crochet and crochet and crochet a very big and colorful granny square… as big as you can
2- Share your pics on flickr so we can all crochet together as we were in the same room
I’ve just created a group on flickr where we can all share our pics even the ones that do not have a blog or website . This is the link to the group:
http://www.flickr.com/groups/sucrettes-giant-granny-challenge
If you have something else in mind (another address or place to share our pics please do not hesitate to tell…
3- No deadlines! No certain nbr of rounds required! You are free to use the yarn that you like, the colors that you love and make it as big as you want
If you have already began one you can continue…It is after all just a fun experience and our goal is to share something we are all creating with the same classic pattern used ages ago by our grandmothers…a simple granny square
4- No stress, just fun! Remember that we are making this just to have some fun and create our own version and have many different blankets to be inspired by …

P.S: To Ohangelina: I make 1 chain between the trebles everywhere…and round after round I keep making just one … Hope this helped
































Dear Angie,
I would like to join in too … You think that’s okay?
I love granny squares so much and you’ve just infected me with your happy nature and the wonderful colors in your blog …
I look forward and say THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!
Many Greetings and have a funny Weekend,
Marion
Yes, of course you can
I count you in
Welcome to the club!
OhAngelina, I think trebles are US doubles. If not i’m doing it wrong
Ummmm, when you say ‘colorful’ can colorful mean lots of different yarn types (eyelash, fluffy, sparkly) of two main colors?? (silver and teal)
If not i’m back to my color disaster and decidly unglam granny
oh no, I’m a granny cheat!!
hehe
yes colorful can mean also : lots of different yarn types (eyelash, fluffy, sparkly) of two main colors

thanks guys. i was wondering,…cause my edges are starting to ruffle upwards, not really laying flat. i am doing treble stitches with two chain in between the corner ones. and just one chain between the regular middle ones. i’m just so over the moon i was able to do my first little granny square !!!! its very empowering ! xxxx
Ooh it’s lovely when everyone joins in isn’t it!? I have to say that I won’t be participating, but I will be enjoying every moment of everyone else’s journey with their giant granny squares. I simply have too much that I am already doing, I must finish those before I start anything else.
xXx Helen
Hi Angie,
.
Thank you for your sweet wish
I decided to begin with the challenge! I couldn’t wait to start something new. I only want three rows for my babyblanket and a border (maybe you have a nice suggestion?) so I think I can make it. My duedate is july 31 so I should still have some time..
How wonderful it is that some many people are joining! Really great!
I posted my first picture on Flickr!
Love, Charlotte

Hello
This looks like fun, I’d love to join in but I don’t think I have time. My tip is that when I do granny squares I don’t like the way they sort of spiral, and it is much more noticeable on a giant granny, so instead of always having the same side facing me as the ‘front’ I alternate from one side to the other on each round: that way your squares don’t twist and spiral, and the finished blanket is reversible too!
Sherry
ahh. i like ! so when you say spiral, is the same as me saying ruffle? you mean..not laying flat? good tip missy ! x
Hello, oh how much fun, thank you for such a wonderful crochet along idea. I definitely want to join in…and just need a simple project to do right now, I love the vintage charm this will add to my home, I’m going to get my hook asap.
I recently finished a blanket that had about 40 rounds and a simple US double edging for my baby cousin. Two rows each colour, very nice!
Granny squares are brilliant! I’ve just finished a big one!
BEAUTIFUL PAGE
