This week for Wise Craft’s Granny Square Sampler Afghan, we made the Whirlygig Granny Square.
I don’t know, this one is just a little too wonky for me. The square is actually supposed to have five raised rounds like the yellow on the blue square. I stopped after three because I felt like that was enough and more was just going to look messier. I saw on Flickr that someone did their square by making the raised rows into one long swirl, so I tried that on the red square. I think I like it a little better. The new techniques I learned this week were hooking into just the font or back of a stitch.
I’m tempted to say I’m going to leave these out of my final afghan, but when added to the whole group of them they don’t stick out too much.
What do you think, leave them in or replace them with something else?
