Granny Square Community Blanket Project at Scotch Plains Library

Community Granny Square Blanket at the Scotch Plains Public Library

Calling all crocheters! We’re planning to piece together a community granny square blanket, which will be used for a Friends of the Library fundraiser. We need to collect 132 granny squares for the creation of this community blanket. If you’d like to donate a few squares, here’s what we’re looking for:

• 5″ x 5″ squares
• worsted weight (size 4) acrylic yarn
• any granny square pattern; any color combination
• Any skill level

Donations can be dropped off at the Adult Services desk through Thursday, October 31.
Looking for inspiration? You can browse our book collection or the STELLA catalog (Dewey number: 746.434) and our Libby magazine collection. You can also find video tutorials on Creativebug (including Gaga for Granny Squares).

Need yarn? We have a selection of yarn you may use for this project- just stop by the Adult Services desk to inquire about our stash that you can choose from.
