Granny squares

I had great fun at Tea and Crafting (teaandcrafting.co.uk) yesterday evening. I'd always wanted to learn how to make Granny squares, and Debbie had taught me some of the basic crochet stitches. I found it tricky at first but Jane is a great and patient teacher, and 8 willing pupils were soon hooking away. 


Now I can make these groovy matching tank-tops and tabard I found in a fab    knitting book!                                                                                                         
                                                                        

          
I'll show you the finished article when I've made a couple more rounds. I'm going again next week to make a flower brooch - really looking forward to that!

    I found the book in my favourite remainder bookshop! It's a compilation of all the most funky things you can imagine - knitted hotpants, ponchos, etc!
