I have a new addiction. Vintage granny square crocheted afghans. I would love to have a few in different color palettes for every single bed in our house and then a few more for our living room and playroom. I don’t know why but I love these things so much. Maybe one day I will make my own. I did just sign up for the Crochet Lab on Craftsy.
I thought today I would share a few of the granny square afghans that I’ve bought over the past few months as well as show you a few of my favorites from Etsy. Maybe I’ll create a few more granny square afghan addicts like myself.
Now on to some of my Etsy favorites.
This beautiful 4-Patch Crochet Granny Square Afghan in Orange, Blue, Green & Purple from Peridot Crafts isn’t vintage but is handmade by the shop’s owner! It’s on sale for 20% off right now, the funds are used to help the owner of the shop pay for her grad school.
20% off seems to be a pattern because this Granny Square Crocheted Afghan from DollFood is also 20% off! The dog in the picture is too cute. I really love the black border around the colored squares.
Blue and brown is my favorite color combinations so I’m kind of surprised that I haven’t snatched up this Granny Square Bedspread from Barbs Bin. It really is stunning.
This Hand Crocheted Granny Square Afghan in Stained Glass Colors from Wanted looks similar to one that I bought when I first moved out of my parents house. I’m kicking myself for sending it to Goodwill when I went through an Ikea kick in my 20’s.
I love the pretty pastel colors in this Multi Colored Granny Square Afghan from Cashout Products.
If I ever make a granny square bedspread for Bean’s room I would pick a similar color palette to this Vintage 1960’s Colorful Granny Square Bedspread from StellaO. I really do love this one.
What do you hunt for when you go thrift store shopping? Do you thrift often? It’s a rather new thing for me… I can’t wait to show you other treasures that I find.
