In keeping with my quick little post yesterday (NaBloPoMo keeps me posting, but antsy and short on time, some days. XD), I thought I’d share some of the web based inspiration I’ve found as I continue my quest towards granny-square-throw-FO-ness.
First off, check out this *KING SIZE* granny-square blanket over at YarnHog’s blog:

I took a break from it in the past few days, but until very recently I’ve been obsessed with Granny Squares. It’s been good practice, and also a great way to use up old stash – specifically bag lots of yarn from Goodwill. I had a whole bunch of scraps from sources like this. So [...]

I have to say, as I approach my first Holiday Season as a crocheter and proto-knitter, I’m struggling a bit with veganism and yarn. I’ve been a vegan for more than 4 years, and I don’t buy wool – with the *possible* exception of second hand. However I really do like a good wool yarn. [...]

Howdy, y’all – hope this finds you well. It’s lovely here – very temperate.
So, I finally got back in the swing of doing a little crochet – doing a very simple project, as I’m such an abject beginner. I’m making a thin little scarf, not measuring or anything. Gonna give it to youngest son, as [...]

This is a fantastic program and when I get my sewing machine back in working order, this is high on my list of things to sew:
