Granny Rectangle (as opposed to a Granny Square)
Before
After Quick post today. March break and trying to keep the youngest busy. Here is something I thought was quite magnificent. Ever wanted to granny something but it was NOT a square? Well here is your chance. I grannied this lovely stool/storage thingy and BELIEVE me it is 100x better than what it used to be.
See pretty granniness? If you want to granny a rectangle here is what helped me. If you would like specifics on how to tighten near the end to get that secure tucked in edge, email me and I will tell you how.
And I have storage as well!
And crocheting trim on pillowcases. What are you up to?

I am currently cleaning out vintage tins and patching up the insides of a vintage trunk.
They're lovely.

Take care

Now that's wonderful! I've never seen crochet used in that way and it is just great. Your sense of color is so pure. I wish I had some of it!
lovely..it does the soul good when you create wonderful things..nice work...lynnie
Lovely!..........
P.S The LA duvet cover is the one in your sidebar. Im disappointed as I assumed the pillowcases would be included but they aren't. The material feels lovely though X
Grrrr! I spent three HOURS trying to crochet a granny square yesterday and I STILL can't get it!Going to go on to you tube for a demo AGAIN and try to follow it.
Your crochet cover looks great...will I EVER get there?
Bellaboo :o)
A great makeover!
What a transformation! The crochet makes all the difference....
What a great idea! I love crocheting these gorgeous things but only ever use them for rugs. Thanks for the inspiration. Leigh
Looks gorgeous, well done.

Thats Fab!! I have also just finished a box like that....note to self, go take a piccie and post it on my blog too!!! I love the crochet cushion in an earlier post, would love to know how you put the final product together because I too am in the middle of a granny square which was meant for a blanket but boredom is taking over with it!!! xx
Great make over, very nice indeed.
I am planning on making some crochet trimming for our pillow cases too, makes them look much nicer. :) xxx
I love your grannies! I'm new to crocheting and can't do anything nearly as wonderful yet. I also like the crocheted edge on the pillowcase. Just lovely!
Love,
Susan and Bentley
