UPDATE: A similar version of this is here.
Although simple in shape, the beauty of the granny square is that it generously offers a staggering multitude of projects just by adding rounds and rounds of it.
Here are some ideas I've dotted down.
Home decor: kitchen towels and potholders, mug rugs, coasters table runners, pillows/cushions, throws and blankets, valances and curtains, wall hangings.
Accessories: (pencil and other) cases, bags, sachets, scarves, warmers, headbands and even hats.
Clothes: Cardies, jumpers, sweaters, vests, dresses... do I need to go on? :) YES! Even jewelry - they are most suitable to make earrings and necklaces.
I made a rose-centered granny into a satchel. This one is great for storing small pieces of jewelry. Or maybe lavender. I haven't decided yet!
So pretty. I used to crochet so many simple gift bags like this but haven't done so in so long that the pattern just flew right out of my head. :/ My memory is the pits. Take care.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tammy! Making small gift bags is immensely satisfying and the result is immediate. And they can be used for so many things ;)
DeleteWhat a pretty sachet!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Bella!
DeleteYes, that is a pretty granny square sachet. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Julie!
DeleteI totally enjoy serving new to me designers. Thank you for and being a part of Tamara's blog hop. I will be very honest as Braydon a this is. Forcing People.....ok I'll rephrase the point is to share a pattern as well a draw up your sight. But there's no pattern. Very disappointed. I see you have paid and free patterns. Yes as I said and I'm not alone we enjoy seeing and partaking in what's avail. But ... whether it's intentional or misunderstanding very disappointed here
ReplyDeleteI re-read your comment twice, so as to comprehend what it is that you are disappointed with, and I still have no clue. What did you expect from this post? A free pattern? Does it say it contains a free pattern? No, it doesn't. Will there be a pattern for this. Yes. It is under construction. I find it quite daring when people that are not followers of my blog/ not known to me take liberties and share a piece of their mind on non-existing grounds. There are tons of blogs on the internet and I hope you find the one that would not disappoint you.
DeleteMaya, I love your sachet and the beautiful colours that you used!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kate! I've been using a lot of happy colours lately. This bleak weather is lowering my spirits!
DeleteVery long time ago I made a granny square blanket, but no as cute as with the flower in the center. Lovely colors!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing on omhgww. Be sure to keep us updated with new creations!
Doesn't flowers make everything more cheerful, Karren? Especially blankets and cushions. I won't miss your party :)
DeleteCute little granny square satchel, Maya. Gorgeous colours.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kim!
