Granny Square Top PDF

Designed by Linda Kortman of Wild Little Acorn

This lovely child's top was recently featured in the Homespun magazine, and is now coming home to Bendigo to roost! This is made with motifs of traditional granny squares and some shaped pieces, using the "join as you go" method. Two colours are shown in photographs, but this can also be made beautifully in a single colour or in 2+ colours for a more modern, funky look.

The pattern is well tested and easy to read, with plenty of photos, charts and video links to assist and ensure you create the correct size.
