Indeed, here are two granny throws that will be an amazing addition to your home. Moreover, they will definitely come amiss in case you want to give someone a hand made, loving gift.

Ocean Glow Throw Free Crochet Pattern (Squared Diamond Granny Throw)
While this granny blanket is easy, it’s by no means banale or boring. In fact, it’s one of the best adaptations of a granny crochet blanket I’ve seen. Furthermore, it’s sized such that it will fit standard North American bed sizes simply by adjoining the squares. Ocean Glow Throw is adaptation of the Squared Diamond Granny Throw Free Crochet pattern by Chris Apao.

Drop in the Pond Lap Blanket
Secondly, the drop in the pond granny crochet blanket is designed to evoke the rippling surface of water. In contrast to other projects, it eschews straight edges in favor of stepped borders defined by angled granny stitches.

Daphne Afghan
This cute baby afghan is very easy to make using popular granny stitch. On the same time is not a simple granny – a blanket consists of 4 triangles which gives you an eye-catching structure and looks great both in the center of the afghan and when folded.
