- I got bored with dishcloths. I wanted to try something different but something I wouldn’t find too difficult. When scrolling through tik tok i decided to find my next project on this app. I was looking for beginner friendly crocheting projects that would take too long to do. I honestly was having a hard time starting anything this week because I didn’t have any motivation to crochet. I didn’t want to stray too far from dishcloths because that’s the only thing I know how to make. When looking I discovered granny squares. These squares are meant to be put together to make a blanket but I just did one for a different pattern.
- To find the granny square I wanted I found the site Sarah Maker and showed 25 different granny squares you could make. I wanted to do one that had holes and wasn’t just a single or double stitch. Sarah maker’s site was good because there were lots of pictures and there were links to the patterns for the granny square. I like that there were lots of pictures and that the pictures were clear. The pictures showed what the granny square was supposed to look like and that helped me pick a granny square out. It also let me know how difficult the granny square might be just by looking at the picture.
Victorian Lattice Square I made this week! - The granny square I wanted to learn was called Victorian Lattice Square. When I clicked on the site where the pattern would be, it led me to this site. This site gave a pdf file for the pattern and the pdf file was easy to read for the most part. The site on the other hand was a little confusing. I didn’t like the look of the site, it is dark and doesn’t really look like a website site i would usually use. There were lots of pictures but not a lot of details explaining the granny square. I don’t think I will use this site again.
