Granny Squares

Granny Squares are definitely among my favorite ways to crochet! 

This is a recent project that combined some scraps and some random yarns to make a colorful lap afghan.

After making two randomly-colored rounds on each, I gave them a little consistency with a third round in an ombre turquoise. 

I used black for the background, partly because it looks classy, and partly because I had a lot of black yarn. I added a simple edging in a bumpy, bulky black yarn, and it was the perfect use for it!
