Granny Square #5

WP_20140109_002

This is a square for my black edged, multicolored granny square blanket, using a J/6.00 hook for 5 rounds and measuring about 5 in x 5 in a square.

You can find the pattern for this Basic Granny Square here.  To change colors, I fastened off the first color then tied the next color onto the next corner space with a simple knot.  To make the first chain of the new color, I just inserted my hook from front to back in the corner space where I just tied on the new color, yarn over and pull a loop up to act as your slip stitch.  Start the pattern like normal from here.

0 Down, 365 to go.

Today’s goal: Make 5 different granny squares.

It’s Sunday and I have no solid plans until 9am tomorrow so making five shouldn’t be that difficult right? Well, I might have to get a little creative since I only have three colors with me right now.  Although that might be just the excuse I was looking for to head to the craft store.
