Post by PaisleyJade »

Hi everyone.

Just thought I'd share the 1-up mushroom crochet blanket I made for my son's birthday. Love it - let me know what you think!

Here is the post on my blog.

What kind of granny square did you use? I've been looking for a decent granny square pattern, but al the ones have gigantic holes in them. Yours looks great!

Any way you can help me out with the squares?

That came out beautiful! I just adore the colors together
I have a kit to try and learn how to knit, but I haven't opened it yet, this project is making me want to hurry and learn finally!
Very nice work!
