Who knew you could make a square by going around and around?! Granny Square blankets are a breeze when you pair this continuous construction method with a self striping yarn that has long color repeats. Have fun stitching a spiral square!
You can even fold in half, point to point and wear it as a cozy shawl!

- LKLyn K.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoPretty, soft and not too bulky
This blanket turned out very well. The yarn is soft and pretty, the colors are saturated. The only downside is that the yarn splits pretty easily. It might be a better yarn for knit than crochet. I like the light weight result.

I don’t usually like “open” spaces when I make a blanket, but wanted to give this one a try. Very happy I did! This yarn was so great to work with, soft and squishy.! Will use it again for other projects.
Pattern was simple and easy. Love everything about it.

Have not started yet but I love the yarn colors
- LSLinda S.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars3 months agoNot so good
I think a yarn that changed colors more often would look better w/ this pattern. With this yarn, it just looks like a lop-sided square. Love the yarn, tho. Just not for this project.

Everything packaged and shipped within two days! Thank you for winding the yarn into center pull cakes! Such a nice service. I'm learning the Granny Square with my first kit from OBH, the Granny Square Potholder kit. As soon as I have it "under my belt" I will start the Continuous Spiral GS Blanket. I LOVE the colors, such beautiful yarn.
