Our annual granny stashdown challenge is moving right along and here we are, already at the end of the summer! What is the granny stashdown challenge you may be wondering? Each year, we gather up all of our yarn odds and ends, toss them into a bin and get working on a lovely granny square blanket! It’s easy, it’s fun, and it uses up SO much yarn!
Watch my update on YouTube here:

Hop on over here to see how to get started with supplies and the granny square pattern!
We’re using a big 10 mm hook and I’m holding multiple strands of yarn (4 to be exact!). The result is a gloriously colorful, unique blanket! We began with this:
And I’ve been adding more and more rounds and it’s grew to this:
And now this (and bigger since this pic was taken)!
So much fun, right? You can see the whole thing on the channel (video above). And it’s never too late to join us, you can begin at any time! In fact several of you have already made several and still stitch up more! Yay!
If you’re doing the stashdown with us, we have two special communities for makers! Each has a welcome area/thread, so please hop on and say hello! You can get info, ask questions, help each other, see what everyone is doing, and show off your work too!

I’m doing an update of the blanket each season in 2022…spring, summer, fall and the big reveal at the end of the year! Come crochet a beautiful granny (or grannies!) with us and let the de-stashing begin!
