Planning a Blanket

.I made loads of squares for my granny square book and since then they’ve been neatly piled in a corner of my craft room.  They’ve been moved around and resorted over and over again but always end up in a neat pile in the corner.  Some have still got their labels on!

I thought I’d better do something with them and what better than a snuggly blanket.  Winter is coming after all!

I laid them out randomly.  I toyed with the idea of arranging them somehow but just decided to let them fall where they wanted.  It was tricky to put the blocks into some kind of order, either by colour or stylebut I did make sure that the Home and Sweet squares fell in a row nicely in the middle!

I’ve been dithering over what colour to use to join all the blocks.  I don’t want to spend too much money on yarn. It would be great to use up some of my stash yarn.  The problem is I’ve only got enough yarn in either dark brown or a very, very bright green.

You can find patterns to all the squares pictured in my granny square book. Links to Amazon to purchase the book are below (please note these are affiliate links and I may earn some pennies from these links at no extra cost to you).

Now to find some yarn to edge and join them…
