Inspired by Granny

SO....I caught another bug....you know, when you see something somewhere and you say,  {in your teenage high school voice}, "oh...my...gosh...I have to try that...like, NOW..."  And then you ignore everyone and everything until you've had your 'fix.'  What? No?  That doesn't happen to you?  oh....

Well.  I was prancing around the internet one day {I don't browse, I prance} and saw Carina's Craft Blog.  I don't even know how I found it, but, like the child that I am, I saw all of the bright colors and drifted far away from the safe clutches of boredom.  She had the most beautiful granny square afghan with the most amazing colors ever ----and so the bug hit me.  Carina did a full tutorial HERE on how to make a granny square - **however, I only put one single crochet between my sections and I like the look of it better with this particular yarn I'm using.  AND THEN...Carina did a tutorial on how to join granny squares. !!  What the?!!  Can you see her amazing blanket?!  Can you see why I want one so bad?! 

SO...here is my progress.  18 squares done, a bazillion more to go.  Wahoo!  Thanks, Carina - you're amazing and you ROCK. {I'm pretty sure that phrase 'You Rock' will never grow old for me...just like Joan Rivers....}

Although I am lamenting the fact that I can't find the AMAZING colors of yarn that Carina uses (found and purchased in Denmark...a little far for me...) I did find some yarn that matches my home.  I'll start with something subtle for my house while I search for bright yarn.

Now go put in a good movie, throw the kids outside to play, and go, granny, go.
