Granny Square Rectangle Shawl

At a thrift store, I found a granny square rectangle shawl. This shawl measured 46 7/8" wide by 22.25", and was comprised of two large granny squares seamed together with a single crochet join. While I was not crazy about the colors and there was also some paint that got on it at some point, I was in love with the idea, so finally, this week I was able to put together my own version of it.

Materials: 606 - 808 Yards of Worsted Weight Yarn [I used Hobby Lobby's I Love This Yarn in Brown (150 - 200 Yards), Burnt Pumpkin (75 - 100 Yards, Sungold (6 - 8 Yards), Cranberry (225 - 300 Yards), and Dark Olive (150 - 200 Yards)], and an I9/5.5mm crochet hook.

Yarn Alternatives: Red Heart's With Love, Berroco's Vintage Yarn.

Time Spent: Each squares takes about 2 hours to work up, so 4 - 6 hours for this shawl.

Gauge: 14 DC by 8 Rows = 4" Square

Abbreviations to Know: DC - Double Crochet
