Welcome back.

It's nice to see you.

Today I have what may be my favorite of all the Bake Shop Squares...

a donut!

Donuts are my favorite. They're more than my favorite. They're in a league of their own.

The donut league.

If I ever play a sport, that's what the team name will be.

But seriously guys, if you know me you know that donuts are my thing.

My best friend manages a cute little island donut shop so I basically had to make this square.

I have made the donut itself before when she asked me to make her some crochet donuts to go with her Christmas decorations at the shop last year!

I really just added a granny square to that pattern and voila! Donut granny square.

I hope you guys love this one as much as I do!

Here is the handy video tutorial!
