It’s Working!!!

A few granny squares only attached to the linen stitch hem.

This is a project I am completely winging. I started some granny squares years ago and just started making some more about a week ago. Just some really basic squares with fun colors.

Same granny squares.

My husband helped with the design idea. When he’s up for it, he’s got some great ones that I then finagle into something doable. Finally bored with squares I decided to start working on the hem.

Some squares on the hem with a panel of linen stitch waiting to be sewn on.

I didn’t measure. I didn’t do any counting or math. I just kept going until it seemed long enough and then started adding height with linen stitch.

Some squares attached on three sides.

I didn’t even count to figure out the spacing between squares. Just lots of guessing and eye-balling as I attached them. It worked out perfectly! I am amazed!

Button holes!

I even remembered button holes! Hopefully the rest of this cardigan comes together this easily.

  1. It is beautiful! Keep going and keep us informed of the project! I love the colors!

    I get the not counting thing. Eyeballing is so much better for some projects!
