I am on the finishing touches of the shrug, so we will see how that turns out. I will surely let you know.<br /><br />I saw that Missy over at Graceful Little Honey Bee did a few granny square blankets and I love the way they look! I may make a couple for the nieces for Christmas this year, but we'll see if I can figure out how to make them.<br /><br />And yes, the double crochet goes by alot quicker; however, I love the look of the single crochet moreso than the double. <br /><br />I know it just takes time to get used to all of the stitches and stuff. I will keep plugging away at it, and I hope you dont give up either. :-)<br /><br />SparingChangehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14091078784546773507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7607280648455026881.post-66440875145024309312013-01-10T06:08:39.457-05:002013-01-10T06:08:39.457-05:00I barely crochet and made an afghan using single c...I barely crochet and made an afghan using single crochet; however, it is not really a rectangle, more of a trapezoid. I guess I added and lost stitches somewhere in there. I found the double crochet was faster and easier. I still don't know how to "make" anything other than that. I would love to make granny squares but they seem to come out as circles. Good luck!Kathy Felsted Usherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10471923897561942341noreply@blogger.com
