Crochet Cherry Pie Granny Square: Bake Shop Blanket Series
1:31:00 PMHappy Friday!
Guess what Friday means? It means a new Bake Shop Blanket Square!
Rejoice!
This week's square is one that really reminds me of my grandma and her cozy 1950s house always smelling like something delicious.
She would have totally made a pie like this one.
And I can feel her smiling down on me as I write up this little crochet pattern.
It a Cherry Pie Granny Square!
Don't let that lattice crust intimidate you... it's a lot easier than it looks. I promise.
And so much quicker than baking a real pie with a real lattice crust.
You don't have to stand all day in the kitchen for this little guy. Although if you did make a real pie, can I have a piece?
Thanks!
Now I'm hungry - dangit!
Me and my hunger aside, here is the handy pattern!
