So last night I was playing around with some yarn. I knew I could make a spiral Granny Square but wondered if I could do it with the traditional Granny Square shells. This is what I came up with.

Hook – I/9 – 5.5mm
Using white, Ch 4 and join to make a ring, sc, hdc and dc in ring.
Join pink to left of white and make a sc, hdc and dc in ring.

Make several of these squares then join them together into a big fun blanket.
Or you could make one square and carry on increasing into a big blanket.
