The Mix crochet project idea

Hi all, hope you are all doing well this week!. I just found an old diary of mine which has blank graph paper and I drew a mix drawing because I had an idea of crocheting a mix granny square to attach to a blanket or even to my other one I'm working on at the moment. However, I tried it before with the graphgan style but it didn't work so I am going to crochet the individual letters and do it that way if I can. I have got a Tom Daley crochet and knitting book which has got a pattern for the alphabet and how to crochet words and letters which I might have a go at. Or I could revisit the youtube video I watched to make letters in freeform. However there are so many I couldn't choose or decide where to start. This has been a project of mine I really want to.do but never got round to doing. If I do eventually make this square I'll have to definitely it share it on here. I might use that Tom Daley pattern because it's helpful. Please let me know what you folk think and whether I should make like a self care inspired blanket maybe???.

    I mean, is there ever a no to more blankets? But a self-care-inspired blanket sounds like an extra fab idea! What would your first step be in making this @Amy22? :)

    it sounds like an amazing idea amy - and i (and we) would love to see the end result if it does end up being completed.

    and i've got to agree that a self-care inspired blanket sounds like SUCH a good idea :3

    Aww thank you so much for both of your kind words,. I did have a look at this thread earlier on but I forgot to respond. I'm thinking I am going to make a mix granny square first and see where it takes me. I have been thinking about adding words or letter related to self care maybe even crocheting some little hearts or self affirmations.

    @Amy22, this is such a wonderful idea! Good luck with it, I'd love to see how the final result will turn out! Also I think a self-care inspired blanket is a golden idea :3<3
