Our First Crochet Along

This September, Join Chonita For Our First Crochet Along!

Granny squares are making a major comeback in the fashion world.

These versatile squares can be transformed into hats, scarves, cowls, sweaters, skirts, socks, bags, and so much more. Of course we must not forget the classic, granny square blankets.

This September, Chonita will be focusing on creating and joining granny squares, and would love for you to join in the fun. Whether you’re just starting or need a little motivation to finish your existing projects, come along for the ride!

Share your progress with us during our Zoom sessions, and be sure to post updates on Instagram and Facebook to inspire and connect with others.

(Tag us @knitatx and use the hashtag #knitatxfirstcal)

Cast on begins on September 4th! So get your hooks polished and ready!

Chonita is going to crochet the Granny Square Sock Bag by Joanita Theron using Cascade Pandamonium. If you would like to join her in using Cascade Pandamonium, we suggest trying a size US F hook and choosing your three favorite shades.

Another fun project to use with Berroco Vintage is the Granny Square Blanket. Staci Perry has great tutorials to help knitters learn more crochet skills.

Each square is a small mini-project of it's own.

Berroco Bozzolo is our first choice for this fun blanket pattern. This blanket takes the Granny Stitch in new directions.

Chose a variegated yarn and contrasting solid for a delightful crochet experience.

Scrappy Granny

Scrappy Granny is a fun way to play around with crochet and use up all your odds and ends of fingering weight yarn.

If you don't have scraps you could use Gusto Wool Echoes or Cascade Heritage for fun washable options.
