The Granny Square Blanket is Done

The squares have been put together and an edge added and we have a baby blanket.

 Sewing the blocks is not really my favorite but it is a great way to use up scrap yarn.  I can never decide how to sew the blocks together.  On this blanket I used a mattress method which I find very time consuming but the stitches are hidden.



 The edge is another troublesome decision for me.  But, at last, I have found an edge that is not only super easy but quick.  Single crochet your initial stitch, ch 2 (this represents your first dc), sc in the next stitch, dc in next stitch, sc in the next stitch, dc in next stitch, etc., etc.  How easy is that.
