    How do you do the "join as you go method" to join the squares together? I am making a blanket similar to this but the squares are smaller for my baby granddaughter. I love the colors that you have chosen! Can you help me?

    The join as you go method is demonstrated on you tube, I have now added a link to the pattern post for you to click on. Alternatively cut and paste this text.

    I love this Granny Square pattern. I find Granny Squares are about the most versatile crochet style ever. I often divide them on the diagonal and do quilt block patterns. So fun!
    Thank you for sharing!

    I plan on making this for a wedding gift. Does anyone know how many yards it takes to make an afghan 10 squares wide and 15 long? I like the colour combinations in this afghan and Loops & Threes Impeccable has over 25 colours so it should work out. Does anyone else have a recommendation for a yarn with a lot of colours that would give a stained glass effect like this one does?

    I think I just found a beautiful way to use up my extra yarn and make next year's Christmas presents! This is so pretty!

    I just wanted to say thank you for the beautiful pattern. I was looking for a modern take on the granny square for a baby gift for a dear friend. This is perfect.

    Karen - I've looked at your project so many times and just have to tell you -- this is wonderful. After studying your colors, I'm trying something similar using the traditional sunburst pattern + cornering as you have done. Thank you for the inspiration!!
