Granny Square Class Friday August 16th @ 1:00 PM
Best for Ages 16+
A granny square is like a plain sheet of paper. Sure, it comes in different colors, textures, sizes and weights however in and of itself, it’s not very exciting until you use it as an integral part of your creative process. During our two hour class we will explore the basic structure of a granny square as we make one traditional style square using a basic worsted weight wool. You will leave the class with a new respect for the humble Granny square and how to bring it to life in your crochet journey. All class materials will be provided. This program is supported in part by a grant from the Bellingham and Franklin Cultural Councils, local agencies, which are supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.
Pre-requisites: Ability to chain, single crochet, double crochet, knowledge of how to count stitches
