The Table Cloth

Back in February this year a friend re-taught me how to crochet granny squares. I have been going crazy with making blankets and working on this table cloth. I decided when I started the table cloth, this was going to me MINE!!!! I knew it would take me awhile, and I'm tired of giving away my crafts to everyone. Now when I made the blankets (I really should just do a post on those ones alone) I made a whole bunch of squares and then crocheted them together. Well as you can see with the table cloth it is one Giant Granny square. Hmmmm now how do you make a square turn into a rectangle??? SO now that I am done with the width of the table cloth I am working on the length, and just moving across the rows back and forth in the same pattern. Wasn't sure how that would work, but it seems to be coming along just fine.
HOWEVER the next table cloth I do make I will make it similar to the blankets, small squares and then sew them together!! it would take me 20 minutes to crochet one side of this giant square!! yes I timed myself ;) but there is no way I'm taking out all my work and starting over!!! that's just crazy talk!! so the next one, and yes there will be a next one, won't drive me insane like this one. But I love it!!!



(see that tiny thread? honestly don't know how many I have gone through, but it's to the point I could only go around the square 3 1/2 times with one of those!)


(such a cute tiny square)
