Half and Half Granny Square Crochet Pattern

February 15, 2018

I love all you can make with this Half and Half Granny Square Crochet Pattern! I used this pattern to make my Southwest Granny Square Blanket. This granny square is worked a little differently than most. Each round is joined, but you turn after each round. This eliminates a lot of ends to weave in, which is always welcome, am I right?
