Colour Inspiration

One of the best things about granny squares is how much you can have fun with colour. From a carefully curated palette of complementary shades to a joyful mix of bright, bold colours, changing your colour choices can completely transform the look and feel of your project.

You can experiment with different colour combinations for each round, create a rainbow of individual squares, or keep things simple with a more limited palette.

Variegated yarns are another wonderful way to add interest, as the changing colours can create beautiful patterns and effects within each square without the need to constantly change yarn.

Whether you love a coordinated colour scheme or prefer to let your yarn surprise you, granny squares are the perfect canvas for getting creative with colour.
