Top 7 Free Granny Squares Pattern

Happy New Year ! 

2014 has already started and has come in full force in thanks to @mummy_stacey on Instagram (IG). She had the fantastic idea of starting a crochet mood blanket made up of 52 squares (1 per week) or 365 squares (1 per day).  Each person can choose their own colors and their own style of square.





Stacey's idea has been very well received at IG that has gone viral.

Follow along in any of the following ways:

Below I am sharing with you ideas you can use to make your squares for your very own blanket that will represent what 2014 will have meant to you by the end of the year.
