Granny Squares FAQ
How many granny squares for a blanket?
About 42 squares of 10 cm for a baby blanket, and around 120 for a sofa throw.
What is the best way to join squares?
Slip stitching through the back loops gives a neat ridge. Whip stitching is almost invisible. Join-as-you-go saves sewing at the end.
Why are my squares different sizes?
Tension changes over time. Use the same hook and yarn for all squares, and block them together at the end.
