The Heirloom Sampler Blanket, page 97. OceanofPDF.com OceanofPDF.com Welcome to Granny Square Flair! I love nothing more than sitting down with some yarn and my hook to design new granny squares. I love the problem solving, the Eureka! moment when an idea comes to life, trying out new yarns and colours. It’s all so much fun. Granny Square Flair was born from this joyful exploration. I’ve gathered fifty of my original designs in this book, taking the humble granny square in exciting new directions. The textbook definition of a granny square is a square piece of fabric textile crocheted while working in rounds from the centre outwards.

I prefer to describe them as bite-sized adventures in yarn where you get to play with lots of different stitches and techniques to create little bits of joy. You can then combine them to make all manner of wonderful things. Making crochet squares is gratifying in so many ways. They give you a sense of achievement, since you can complete a square easily in one sitting. You get to do a little happy dance every time you finish one.

There’s no boredom caused by working endless rows all the same. Plus, you’ll reap the many benefits of keeping your mind and your hands happily occupied creating something beautiful. If all that isn’t enough, granny squares are the perfect portable project. They’re great for the daily commute, or for when you’re in the passenger seat on road trips.

Treat them as a break in your busy day, your “relax and forget about the world” time. If you make a granny square every day or so, you’ll have enough for a whole project in no time at all! The patterns in this book run the gamut from quick and easy to those requiring a little more concentration.

I’ve assumed that you have basic crochet skills.
