I’m making one of these at the moment and loving it. So thankful that I will not have to sew/crochet a bunch of squares together 😉
I make the foundation chain with double yarn. Makes it stronger. Working on a baby blanket right now
It’s a granny rectangle then, not a square lol
I need to learn how to do the regular granny square!!!
My favorite! I like to make Goan rectangle granny square blankets!!!!
I like this but my last attempt caused the long sides to become ‘even’ and the short sides to become ‘odd’ so the scallop edging wouldn’t work. Guess my math was off… Need to try it again, a bit differently next time…

Ok will look it up for u
Thx Sister, What time do you go to the Doctor .
And l don’t go to Dr until the 11th
Thanks for the info. Will definitely use this!
A silly question maybe, but could you keep making it bigger and make a blanket for a bed?
Claire Sorenson

Thank you 🙂

When I have a minute I must look at this because I got into a mess trying to do one of these the other day.

My next afghan will be made like these, so different.
Do you have any written directions? I don’t /can’t watch videos. Not enough data.
I finished my first rectangular item just a couple of days ago, using up leftover yarn 🙂 This one is only 34×27 inches… it’s a dog mat/blanket.
WHERE IS THE PATTERN? I NEED WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS.
