Grey Granny

I must admit that in my 20+ years of knitting and crocheting, this is my first granny blanket! I am a child raised in the 60's and 70's, so, you can hardly blame me! ARG! If you were raised during this time, you know what I mean! 

Granny squares are making a wonderful comeback....in a big way! All the terrific colors and designs! WOW! While I am not a fan of the traditional granny, I have come up with a style and version that suits my fancy!

Shades of grey are HUGE right now!  I get so many orders for baby blankets done in this colorway!  I am happy to oblige as my closet is nothing but black, white and grey!  As a 50something woman, it has come down to that!  So much easier to get dressed!  

I digress!  A baby blanket done granny style is perfect as it does not take forever to assemble and sew up!  And, if you crochet over the tails, that makes for less work at the end!

I have the blanket for sale here if you would like to see!  The pattern is here !

Have a great weekend!

  1. I would love the pattern for the blanket! I have a co-worker expecting his first baby and they aren't learning the gender early. So they've asked for gray as part of the "theme" for baby gifts!
