Hi Michelle. Glad we have brought you over to the granny side. It can ve a very versatile pattern because so many different looks can be created. I don't remember what size this blanket was but KAS asks for a blanket to be at least 32 inches on the length so 32 by 32 for a square one should be fine. I have made them much bigger for my family by making small squares or great big ones and joining them together. The sky is the limit. Have a look in my album called my blankets and you will see 3 that I made on a larger scale too.

Great work Jeni, the fuzzy yarn looks very effective, good on you for pressing through!

No problem Michelle, what you do is....
Pattern, what pattern, I follow the basic granny pattern and change wool colour when I want, get boared or run out. It is such a cheat, I know but it isn't any hastle and is great for using up bits. I know October is for stash busting but I always do this cause I try to use up my 'bits' first.

I hear you. Too many directions and it's work AND a chore to me. I love the Go-Overs for that reason, just a bunch of squares. I too have fuzzy yarn here. It can be a rascal to work with but it sure gives lovely textures and fills in alot of stitch gaps too, making things nice and cozy.

Thankyou. I actually feel a bit lazy cause I just stick with granny squares but selfishly I am doing this to relax and don't really want the hasstle of following patterns or counting stitches. Any thing else seems like more work to me.
