Sweet Baby Granny Swap IV

Many of us know babies, have babies on the way, or know a child who would just love a soft blankie in sweet colors (my own 7-year-old, a big girl in many ways, would cherish such a blanket!). In this swap, we will exchange small granny squares. Our goal is to collect enough squares for a lovely baby afghan at the end of the four-part swap cycle.

WHAT: This swap is the last part of the cycle. For this part, you will crochet a total of 12 4x4 inch granny squares in soft, machine-washable yarn, in 3 or 4 ply, and pastel colors. You will have two partners, and send each partner six of the squares. In turn, on this round, you will receive a total of 12 squares from two partners.

WHO: This swap is international, for anyone who has a rating of 4.5 or better or is a newbie with a nice full profile, and would enjoy making a joint-effort baby afghan! Please join!

I'm assigning two partners because the small squares work up very quickly. Each granny will probably be something like four or five granny rounds to achieve a 4x4 square (depending on yarn and needle of your preference, of course).

You can also get started on your squares right away, before partners are assigned, because we already know that all squares will be done in pastels. Do try to be pretty good about the sizing, so that all squares will fit nicely together at the end!

At the end of this last Baby Granny Swap you will have 48 little pastel granny squares for an interesting and pretty blanket for a lucky baby or child.

And one last detail: I will be jumping in to angel anyone who doesn't receive a set of grannies for any part of this swap. But I think everyone will be nice and send their grannies!
