Vintage Granny Squares



I've started working on my granny squares ~ again.  I found them in a storage bin when I was cleaning out my cedar closet a while back.  You may remember them as this:

 

 

All skewered on two knitting needles, held in place, in limbo, for . . .  literally years.  

I'd say, 40 years or so. 

Pitiful. 

 

 I added a second row of black around them and then tucked them away ~ again.  

But fortunately for them it wasn't for countless years!  

I decided today to get them back out today since my favorite the most boring

 sport in the whole wide world will be playing.  

ALL.  AFTERNOON.   LONG. 

I am NOT thrilled.  I hate football. 

 Period.

 

 

I decided to add a row of white to offset the black and to pull the colors out in the centers.

I hope it adds just the right touch. 

I think I may add a add a cute little border around the whole thing

when it is finally put together.

I will be excited to get her done.  She has waited far too long. 

 

Procrastination.  My adversary.   

 

 

Sew Until Next Time,
