Granny Square Sofa Throw or Afghan

I'm still going crazy for granny squares.  But here is a simple project that I made during the weekend.  I used scrap yarn to piece this quick afghan together.  I crocheted granny squares with 5 rows and connected them as I complete one.  Its only 3 rows of granny squares,  Long enough and wide enough to cover where people would normally rest their head on the sofa.  I love how it turned out.  It reminds me of a quilt.

You can see how many granny squares I used to get my desired length.  It's 8 across and 3 the other way.  So far one of my favorite pieces.  Because I don't really like to do big projects.  I often never complete them or runs out of yarn. 

oh, and as you can see, I also crochet a 4 rows for the border using the granny square stitch technique of 3dc in each space.

How to organize your crochet hooks

I'm always looking for better ways to organize my craft area.  and here's a simple tip.  I use an acrylic make-up organizer for my crochet hooks.  It's been hiding in my bathroom closet, no longer use for its original purpose.  I thought that it might be perfect for my growing collection of crochet hooks.  and I like the turnout.  Check it out.

notice the altoids container, I use that for my crochet needles.

Love all the little compartments in this acrylic organizer.

I have a place just for my bamboo crochet hooks, the aluminum collection, and even area for my tape measure, scissors, and few buttons and etc.

I would love to see how you organize yours.  comment below
