I finished up nine granny squares this week to donate to the Crochetlist April charity challenge, the Binky Patrol in Arizona. These were all made with acrylic stash yarns.

(This post is part of my Year of Projects: Crochet Master Class series. You can read the other posts in this series here.) The subtitle of this post should be: Unraveled.
