I realized I have way too much acrylic yarn so I decided to make a granny squares blanket and this was the first proper granny square I've ever made!

That looks really good! I still haven’t learned how

Heres the pattern I used, I tried a lot of different ones for the classic square and this one is the best. This is a blanket pattern, but all it is is just the granny square pattern + connecting instructions so just ignore the connecting part. I think using the right size hook and making the DC's tall and loose also helped a lot.

I just spent like half my day crocheting and I'm so happy with what I've done, lol. My wrist is now aching so badly and my hook is making creaking noises against the yarn so I'm gonna stop. I'm actually so shocked I did all of this. I don't know how I'll finish my blanket (probably will be a baby blanket since I have a baby in the house anyway)but if I have a few more days like today I could get a lot done. Oh and the lion is so cute. I spent like 1/2 hour on the mane but it was definitely worth it.
