cosied up


I am very guilty of many of getting all excited about granny squares and the idea of rugs or cushions, but then after crocheting up a few, I loose heart ( it's not a bear or animal or something 3d with life) and give up. I've been guilty of doing this more than once and hence I have a large collection of single granny squares.
while I've always been to lazy or toy obsessed to do anything with them, the thought of throwing them out or even giving them away ( especially as they are in varying degrees of neatness, so I'm not sure they would be much a "gift" for the someone).
SO they sit there unused, except for performing the task as a lap rug to the occasional ami who feels the cold.


But then I was lucky enough to receive an iphone for my birthday and so there was the whole issue of how to keep it safe and protected ( and warm)
and 3 granny squares crocheted together and folded over was a quick and easy and cheap way to provide said Ipod with a cosy. Not the neatest and certainly on the wonky side of things. But a cosy none the less.
Now what to do with the remaining 16....

I think the remaining 16 should be make into more iphone covers to give away to lovely people on your blog who leave comments!!!

Looks great to me. I have so many projects, grannies and otherwise, that I need to find a use for or gift to someone so that I can make space for everything else I want to create. Hope your day is wonderful. Tammy
