CROCHET A SUNFLOWER GRANNY SQUARE



This is a nice variation of the ever so popular granny square.  I love different granny squares as there is so much that you can do with them.  I also love doing them in many different colors to spice things up a bit.  I am a color fan and the more colors the better.  Of course that is me and everyone is so different, which makes the world an interesting place. Anyway the pattern is below and the video link is below as well.  Remember to Have Fun Crocheting!
