I started these squares months ago, after seeing a pattern in Dutch for some coasters. I think these are the same as sunburst granny squares, but I’m not sure. They look very similar. This is more of a free form piece, the squares and stars slightly different sizes and none of them the same color. In the beginning, I wanted to make a medium sized tapestry, complete with these Dutch stars and I wanted to figure out how to do a sun. But several granny squares in, I didn’t want to do that any more. I wanted to make it something I could wear. Here are 8 Pictures That Prove How Versatile Granny Is.
- Paul McCartney – granny square vest
2. scarf love
3. Granny Square Hoodie, really wanted to do this but wasn’t sure how. someone said it was basicaly “one rectangle in the back, and two rectangle panels in the front, attached to a hood.”
4. Bet I’ll be doing this instead of crochet crop/halter tops. I don’t know I love them, but I can’t bring myself to show that much skin. Granny Square Halter Top❤
5. Colorful Tote Bag
6. For My Sexy Yoga & Hippie Chicks, this bolster
7. And for the longest time, I was pinned on making me some comfy pajamas. Granny Square Pants
8. Wanderlust Granny Square Dress
For now, i guess it’ll be safe to say to just leave it as a small blanket. What do you think? Is it to late to change my mind?
What should I do with my granny square piece? Make a poncho? Make a pillow? A table runner? Feel free to share granny square pictures in the comments. I’d love to see what you like.

A poncho sounds lovely, or a long vest/cardigan for yourself? A cover for the bed or a cosy blanket for the sofa… An open bag also sounds like a good idea 🙂

Hahah granny square pants. I’d make a blanket out of these 😉 The hoodie doesn’t look too complicated, no. Basically just what that person told you: crochet one rectangle for the back panel, two narrower ones for the front panels, fix up some sleeves and a hoodie and there you go. What I do is just putting down a hoodie I have myself and ‘filling in’ the panels in crochet stitches. Does that make sense?

I like you! Thanks for taking the time to reply 🙂 Yes that does make sense. My “blanket” has become so many different ideas. Glad you like the granny square pants! It was so cold a month ago I seriously wanted to make me some. I thought if the hoodie/sweeter got too complicated, i could just make a poncho? And then I questioned my sanity because I’d looked like I’d been yarnbombed. lol.

And this is exactly why I prefer crochet over knitting, you can do almost everything with those squares! By the way… I adore the scarf! Too long I’ve been thinking of making one, maybe it’s time 😉
