The Granny Hex

When I was little, the weight of my blankets was crucial.  The heavier the better and I was always piling more and more onto my bed.

My favorite blanket was a blue granny square afghan my mom made when she was in high school because even though it was fairly small, it was really heavy.  And the best thing about it was that it was actually made out of granny hexagons!

So when, in my search for great granny square patterns, I came across this . . .

Granny Hex

. . . I was pretty excited!  It brought back a bunch of fabulous memories and was just the comfort I needed on such a rainy, dogless day. 

I think I'm gonna start a hex right now!
