Friendship Star Granny Square
"As the name suggests I have been inspired by the star shape for my textured crochet square. “Friends are like stars. You don't have to see them to know they are there.” I think friends are very much like stars. You only need to look up and they are there. Even on a cloudy night, you might not be able to see the stars but you know they are near watching over you. The granny square uses a combination of textured and lacy crochet stitches to create a beautiful square. It uses aran weight yarn and 6 mm hook."
