Granny squares are popping up on craft blogs all over the web. This traditional crochet motif has been around for ages, but it never seems to exhaust the potential for innovative, unique character and singular charm. In celebration of the humble granny square, we introduce the Granny Square Project Journal.  Beginning with a simple pattern, you can make all manner of GSPs (Granny Square Projects). 

If you are new to crochet, our Crochet Basics Tutorial will equip you with all the necessary crochet skills to make your own granny square. 

GORGEOUS GRANNIES ON THE WEB!

On Granny-Along, you can follow the adventures of grannies young and old as they make blankets, bags, coasters, even dishes.

There are no less than 3 Flickr groups dedicated to the granny square:

Here at the Purl Bee, Whitney's Babette Blanket is an all-time favorite project.  It is part of the Babette Blanket Group on Flickr.

 
We hope you'll share some of your favorite GSPs with us! Post a photo to the Purl Bee Projects!
