Granny squares are modern again!
We all remember the days of our moms and grandmas, sitting around a table with needles and yarn creating these colorful afghans.
This modern granny square cardigan takes those nostalgic memories and brings them back to life in a new way.
Instead of black yarn, this designer used the cream for some of the rounds.
The subtle change makes all the difference as it gives this modern take on grannies an updated look that is perfect for chilly summer evenings or winter mornings at home.
