This week for Wise Craft’s Granny Square Sampler Afghan Project we did a Granny Square Swirl.
I can’t say this is my favorite square as far as how it looks. It makes me think of tie-dye which I’m not a huge fan of. It did knit up really quickly though. The new skill I learned this time around was working with more than one color in a single round.
This meant having four live colors at a time. The biggest issue really was keeping the colors that were waiting to be used from unstitching. I found pulling the loop out a bit helped with that.
I have to say I’ve been spending a lot of time in the hospital with my dad over the last two weeks and crochet has helped keep my hands very busy. I love knitting, but find the crochet is even easier to do when you need something a little mindless.
