Hooks, Books & Me

Hello yarnians, welcome again..!! We have already completed three squares in our series and today I am going to publish fourth one, “Lilliandil”.  When I first announced that I will be publishing 9 Granny Squares every 15 days, I was little skeptical whether I would be able to design and write the pattern within stipulated time but I think once you decide and start acting on it, things somehow fall into their places & here I am releasing pattern for fourth square..!! Lilliandil is very special to me for many reasons, firstly because Lillian in Lilliandil is very significant name in my life, Lillian is the name of my very dear friend who passed away last year after fighting a bitter fight with Cancer.

Hello Friends, welcome again. Thank you for your overwhelming response to "Chloris". Your kind response is what keeps me going. Being a novice in this field (both crochet pattern designing & blog writing), I did not expect such a kind and positive response (1200+ page views), so thank you again..!! The second pattern is named after "Sagitta" constellation which lies in the northern sky. Sagitta literally means "Arrow" in Latin. Sagitta is one of the Greek constellations, belonging to the Hercules family of constellations. It was first catalogued by the Greek astronomer Ptolemy in the 2nd century. It represents Heracles’ arrow in Greek mythology. More information on Sagitta constellation can be found HERE . Coming back to our second square in the series "In Love With Granny" - "Sagitta", Sagitta is 23 rounds, 10" crochet square. Material Required: Your favorite yarn and a matching hook, I used 3 mm hook wit
