ReadyMade is getting in on 30 Days of Creativity—which means we’re making something every day during the month of June! Read more about the initiative here. And check out what we made today:

"I crocheted this blanket for my niece using six balls of Lion Brand's Thick & Quick, a wool/acrylic blend. I've been using this yarn for a lot of projects lately because it's inexpensive, durable, and projects get completed super quickly with it. This blanket took maybe 45-minutes per skein of yarn. Aliya watched SpongeBob while I worked on it and surveyed its growth during the commercial breaks.

I'm pretty new to crocheting. My aunt made me a beautiful blanket of granny squares when I was a kid. I was going to do that, but then I just kept crocheting one single granny square—double crocheting once in each stitch and then doing two double crochets, two chains, and two more double crochets in the corners of every other row—until I used up all the yarn I'd purchased. I winged it, but it is similar to the Pansy Patch Throw and the Grand Granny Square Afghan, both available for free at the Lion Brand site." -"Do This With Your Pet" Blogger Anna Jane Grossman
