Nine Patch Granny Square

Since Granny Square day is on the 15th, I decided to post this today instead of the normal Friday posting, in case someone wanted to make this square for granny square day! This granny square is a little different and I selected it because it reminds me of my older sister who is a longtime quilter and has a blog about quilting called Kerry's Quilting! This weeks granny square design is inspired by the nine patch quilt design. 

When you Google the term nine patch, you end up with many sites about making quilting blocks and nine patch quilts. The nine patch quilt block has been around since the 1800's and was one of the the first quilt patterns that young girls were taught. This crochet granny square is for those crocheters who love the look of quilts!

So here we go a skein, fresh off the hook:

                                                Nine Patch Granny Square

This nine patch square is made with nine mini granny squares, which resembles the nine patch quilt block.

As with all granny squares the color combinations are endless and each color scheme gives the granny square a different look!

Happy Granny Square day to all, I can't wait to see all the granny squares that everyone creates!

Stay tuned for the rest of August, I will be sharing granny square blankets patterns and updates.

Have a hooky day! Lynne
