The RicRac Granny Crochet Blanket

 Hello Happy Hookers,   I do hope this blog post finds you well....

I have been working on a stash buster for a few weeks - I keep picking it up and putting it down again to work on other projects in-between, but finally I can announce that it is finished!!

It is really quite simple to do, and if you can do a Granny Square I am pretty sure you can do this too!

I use my favourite Stylecraft Special DK yarn, just grabbing part balls out of my stash - as long as you have enough to do three lines you can use up all your old part balls!   A hint might be to weigh the part ball before you start, then divide it by three..... once you have got to that number on the scales you know you will have enough to do the other two parts.

The body of the blanket is done in three separate pieces, so you can do them one at a time, or jump back and forth to make them all grow at the same rate. I chose to join in black and make a feature of the join to make the colours pop, I then edges it in black too to make the joining look more cohesive. 

I always use my most favourite hook which is a Clover Amour - I notice from my videos though that I jump between the 4,00mm and the 4.50mm - this is the problem when you keep putting work down and returning to it, you can't always remember which hook you used!  :)

Anyway, if you fancy having a go, you can find the video here.....

I love to see photos of your finished items, so please do feel free to tag me on the Socials - it's Sooz in The Shed all way way  :)

Until next time.... Happy Hooking!

Oh, and just for transparency, if you buy anything from Amazon using the links I provided I get a small commission. just pennies if I remember rightly, but it doesn't cost you a bean  :)
