  1. I had promised you more #grannies from our Festival of #Wool & #Yarn. The square-bags were new, but I suspect the horrible shades of orange and brown are original 1970s. 🤭
    We had a big hype with grannies in the 1960/70s, first with colourful fancy #hippie #fashion, then in the typical colours of rubbish bins (in the early 1970s, everything had that dirty orange: bins, coffee-machines, skirts, wall-papers). @fiberarts

  2. One yarn I can't get away with is cotton. I had to really force myself to finish this evil eye granny square blanket. It was from Hobbii and 70% off! Was making 2 freeform cushions with leftovers but have hidden them under the bed. I like a bit of give in yarns. Also a super chunky premium acrylic which crocheted up like a board. Never again.
