Some of you may be here because you are already obsessed with granny squares and vibrant colors like me, but others may be thinking what the heck is granny crochet? Don't let the word "granny" fool you, this style of crochet is anything but tired and old! Granny crochet is probably one of the most versatile and loved types of crochet. The possibilities are endless when it comes to creating things with granny squares. The main picture is a pike of granny squares by Sarah London, who is one of my favorite crocheters.
