Granny knows best...

Well, not much to show you this week I'm afraid.  I am trying hard to stash bust and have two 400g balls of creamy white aran yarn to use up.  I was given this yarn by two different people so the colour of each ball varies slightly.

I have been trying to figure out what to do with it and have finally decided on a crochet blanket for cool summer evenings in the garden.  I looked at a lot of different patterns but came back to the good old simple Granny Square.

So, here is the beginning of my garden cosy..as I said, not much to show but it's on it's way!
