✴ my creative space

48 granny squares. I thought this may be the half way point. I laid them out on our bed to get a proper look how it may turn out and I actually think I may be more than half way there. Because this will be a blanket for the baba, when she moves into a big bed. So it only really needs to be baba size. 
Do you see what I did there? 
( I cut my workload down by making it for a small person. Clever...eh?)
This has been an evening pursuit. While watching telly or a good dvd. 
Very relaxing and highly addictive.
Also a bit of stitching, for a break from the grannies.

  3. You look very busy in your space this week....I love a granny aquare blanket but it is just too hot to crochet here and we usually don't have much need for cosy blankets. Boo hoo.
