RE: #needleworkmonday :: The versatile Granny Squares
For years now I am amazed that in most serials which are filmed in the USA people have at least one crochet blanket in there home. Often these are lovely granny square blankets and every time I watch a show, I want to start a blanket myself. But I know better... I would never finish it (as I already have proven).
In my youth granny squares and items made from them were not very common and up today I seldom see people work granny squares... but this could be per chance.
I just finished my second granny square shawl and rekindled my love for this easy but beautiful pattern. I hope you will come up with a new project, perhaps with the sunburst square?
(And by the way, how is your sewing machine, does the bobbin/thread work again?)
I am so embarrassed to reply you because I have not touched my machine since my post until yesterday and it threaded okay! I let it be for fear that my impatience would spoil my day :D But luckily it threaded but I have not tried the machine. Giving it a few more days :D
You are right, most drama series in USA has at least some crochet blanket in there. The one I watched was a Korean drama with subtitles. Even Korea has been bitten by the crochet bug :D Oo yes, your shawl is beautiful! I like granny squares. Its the finishing a project after starting it that is the challenge haha. I am thinking of the solid square for a bag project and have been getting confused with the pattern shared by the link I was following. Need to leave it for a while before I attempt to decipher the pattern again :D
No need for shame... you know how erratic I work on my crafts (if I would make a honest honest photo of all my startet project you would kick me out of the #needlework community) And sewing machines are complex beings, I totally get your fear of doing something wrong.
