MWM|| I was finally able to complete my crochet granny project

Blessed Monday dear needleworkers friends, I wish you an excellent start of the week. Today I am very excited to show you the final result of the grannys project I was doing last week, which I had to pause due to a strong pain in my right hand.

Happily, after a few days of rest, this weekend I was able to resume my project and bring you the final result in this post.

As I mentioned in the previous post, this project takes up a total of 13 granny squares. On Saturday I managed to finish all the squares and on Sunday I started to join the pieces as indicated in the pattern.

This pattern can be found on Pinterest, on Youtube there are also many videos that explain in detail the step by step assembly of the project.

As you can see in the image, when the grannys are arranged as shown in the pattern, we get the shape of a purse. Perhaps now you can better understand my anxiety to see the finished project. I felt like a little girl putting together a puzzle. This was the part I enjoyed the most of the whole process, placing each granny in the indicated position and starting to put them together.

There are several ways to join grannys, I was watching several videos to see which way I liked the best. At first I chose to join them with a crochet hook because I don't really like hand sewing, but the truth is that it wasn't as easy as I thought; I wasn't liking the finish I was giving to the bag either. Finally, I decided to join them with a wool needle and I must say that it was really relaxing to join each square. The fabric markers were very helpful for this step, they helped me to keep the work together while I was sewing it with the needle.

I have to say that I took a long time sewing the grannies, because I wanted to get a neat and clean seam. I relaxed a lot while sewing and I got excited every time I saw that I was close to finish. The last step and also the easiest one was to knit the handle of the bag and then sew it and finish the project. I am really in love with this bag pattern, mainly because it is made with granny squares and also because it looks very pretty. I was very satisfied with the final result, I hope you like it too.

Thank you very much for reading, greetings and blessings.
