Ok, it’s no longer Sunday, in fact it’s Tuesday ~ ooops!
Please meet Lacy Cross, number 8 in the Miscellaneous Granny Square Collection.
This was one of the trial granny squares for my mother’s Spring Blanket. In fact, we nearly decided to do half Lacy Cross / half Willow, (see yesterday’s post). But then we decided it was just too much pink, so Lacy Cross has been added to the Miscellaneous Granny Square Collection.
I love the yarn! But yet, too many Bubbles (I think that was the colour).
Yes, Bubbles is indeed the colour. I really liked the idea of two squares, because a) I love pink, and b) this square is super-easy to make. But then, when you’re making a gift, I guess you have to take into account the style of the giftee (if that’s a word)!
Actually – this would probably look nice in this sort of style.

Ooh I love the idea of the cross and I think the pink is very pretty X
I like this cross….would love to make it. Where can i get the pattern? I am interestec in Chrjstian anx Irish granny squares.
I Laura. The pattern is from an awesome book called “200 Crochet Blocks” by Jan Eaton. Hope that helps!
would like to make this. do you have the instructions to share
Hi Lois. The pattern is from an awesome book called “200 Crochet Blocks” by Jan Eaton. Hope that helps!
i have this very same book but despite the fact hat its meant to be a simple one crochet hook rating of difficulty i cant seem to work out the pattern
When it says miss one tr, does that miss only the treble or does it include the 2 chains that u have also made??? i cant figure it out….thanks
Hi Fiona. Which round are you talking about? In round 2, you are starting the ‘cross’ part of the pattern, so you basically end up with 4 corners, each with 3 treble, and 4 sides, each with 2ch, 1 tr, 2ch (missing a tr from the row below for each of the 2ch). I hope that makes sense! Cheers, Terri
