Granny, Squared

If you're reading this, I guess you didn't get raptured on Saturday last.  Ah, well, we're in good company. 

Saturday was more then just NOT the rapture, it was also month #5 of my year-long crochet class at Fancy Tiger.

And month #5 was totally my favorite so far...

The Granny Square!

Not only have I been dying to learn how to make this block for years, I also learned that it is easy to do.  The progression of the square is super logical, and the color possibilities are basically endless. 

I am finally starting to get my groove on with this crochet stuff.  I can sort of read stitches and see my mistakes- I remember how amazing it felt when I got to this point with knitting.  I'm still totally struggling with charts and pattern reading, but, all in good time, right?  I've got 7 months to go...
