Granny Squares by Halves

The Granny Square has made a huge resurgence. This workshop is for granny square lovers who enjoy utilising the traditional Granny Square into clothing like vests, jumpers and skirts, to name a few, but find the results are often boxy & unflattering. The half granny square may be just the answer – an easy way to shape armholes, neck & hem lines.

Requirements: Participants to bring own hooks and must have good basic crochet skills. Materials: The workshop includes yarn and pattern, in both written and graph (chart) form. Please bring your own hooks 3.5m - 5m.
