Modern Granny Afghan
It’s a granny afghan, but granny’s put on her air pods and has gone to Starbucks for a salt caramel frappucino. This means it’s a modern take on a timeless classic. It uses interwoven blocks instead of squares. As a result, you get a more cohesive and interesting texture without a traditional granny square look.
Likewise, the size is also easily adjustable, and this project can be sized using both yarn weights and rows numbers. It can be a baby blanket, a giant bedspread or anything in between.

Tiny Bunny
This has got to be the most adorable amigurumi project ever. It’s so tiny, you can make it entirely out of yarn ends.
Yarn ends? Never mind how the yarn ends. Yarn dust, even? The tiny bunny is 1.5″ long and will be the perfect addition to a desktop, a book, or just something to play with as you do something else.
