Hello and Welcome!
I think of all the blankets I did in the December collection this moon is my fave. I mean, I’ll never say no to a granny, but I really just enjoyed everything about this one.
I chose to pair this granny with Stylecraft Special Chunky cause I was in mad love with the colors, but honestly folks, if you haven’t tried this yarn you should. Although a chunky weight yarn, it is on the lighter side and my 5.5 mm hook had no problems with it.
What is the Infinity Granny Stitch?
The Infinity Granny Square takes the same concept of a traditional granny square and just keeps going! It consists of a cluster of three double crochets (dc, dc, dc in the same space).
**NOTE** We always start our granny’s with a magic ring, but you can start yours however works for you. Also! We DON’T ch. 1 along our sides and we only ch. 2 in the corners.
Abbreviations

Want an easy way to keep track of each row? We sure do, so we include row trackers in our PDF’s! You can download that HERE. I don’t know about you, but if I don’t have something to physically check off, I spend more time counting and recounting instead of crocheting!
TIPS
We have a few tips to help ya out! You can always do what works the best for you, but these are what we find to be tried and true for us!
- Try to weave in those ends as you go. Learn will be a lot!
- Turn! Turning is the easiest way to keep you blanket from getting wonky.
- After finishing one color, turn it towards you so the back side is now facing you, then rotate it counter clockwise. Start with a new color in any Ch 1 sp. Again, this is awesome sauce for keeping your sides straight!
- Not every blanket needs a border! Don’t be afraid to skip it. If you edges are straight and consistent, there’s really no need!

BORDER
I very rarely put a border on my grannies. I feel that’s the beauty of these blankets, they really don’t need one. There a ton of beautiful border option out there, but I so enjoy getting to that last row and calling it good!
