My lovely friend Taylor- whose family met mine at the Botkin family/Christians at the Crossroads conference- pictured below with me (doesn't she look amazing in black and white?)...
...showed me how to crochet a new pattern of granny square called "Willow". I LOVE the pattern, it's fun to crochet and it looks gorgeous when you get it done!

My original square was the pink one, and I branched out and made one in blue and green as well! I can't decide which design I like better. They're both pretty. :)
Taylor found the Willow pattern in this really neat book, which I have ordered and hope to get sometime next week.
I love to crochet, and granny squares are my absolute favorite thing to crochet, but all I knew how to do was the plain old original granny square, so I am SO excited about all these new patterns to try out! :)

ReplyDeleteI have put your "Cookies and Cream" button on my site but it appears to be a bit big. I was wondering if you could trim it down.

Hi Julia! =:) Those are lovely! I have gotten that book out of the library before and it has tons of ideas for blocks. I hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteI like crocheting too! I didn't know you liked to crochet!? I assume you are an intermediate crocheter? I am too. I could be better but I don't work on learning new skills enough of the time (I blog too much I guess!) =;) Do you knit as well or just the crochet?
Blessings!

That is a really cute photo, Julia. :) I can crochet a little, but nothing like that... wanna come teach me? LOL
ReplyDeleteThose are really cool! I'm normally a pink kind of person, but in this case I think the blue might be that little bit more awesome. :)
