Lion Brand Notebook ®
The 1970s have been having a moment in fashion lately, and with it comes a trend we’re familiar with… Granny Squares!
Although the pattern’s always been a favorite for afghans and throws, we love the idea of wearing this dynamic pattern. Combine your favorite colors to make a vibrant square, or go for a monochromatic look with a single color, like Alison Craftland’s bolero project below. Even fans of high fashion will want to get their hands on a Granny Square piece — top designers have incorporated the pattern in their European fashion shows!
Crocheters rejoice; the beloved pattern is making a comeback this spring and summer and we’ve got a few projects to match.
