Gia Afghan

"There is something special about the classic, traditional granny square that always warms my heart! I love it worked in a solid color, color blocks, or stripes. This fun and easy granny square afghan is worked in one large continuous manner. It is a great on the go project, or to pair with watching your favorite TV show or movie. Beginner friendly, and 8 sizes included plus a video tutorial! I’ve used Red Heart Super Saver for my afghan, but you can use any worsted weight yarn from your stash – pick your favorite! For reference, the Newborn size took me just under 6 and a half hours."
