Lulu sits on a couch with a yellow one pound ball of yarn in her lap and I am holding up the largest yarn know I have ever seen in my life. I do not look impressed. I am wearing a grey sweatshirt and pj pants. There are pink and orange circles on the wall behind me and a cat tree the right of the photo with a grey sleeping cat on the upper level.

Story of a One Pound Continuous Crochet Granny Square Blanket

Thank you for Sharing :)

🫣 I tried to create a MEGA Granny Square from a POUND of YARN. I had my 4 mm crochet hook and a heart for to make a continuous crochet granny square blanket. What could go wrong?

Have you ever refused to cut your yarn mid project?

I was soo stubborn when I was crocheting this continuous granny square blanket.

This was by far the BIGGEST knot I’ve ever seen in my life!

Once I gave in and cut the yarn it was fund to just get into the groove with the double crochet.

Do you cut your knots when you run into them or pull your yarn apart?

Do you find working through a knot soothing?
