This daisy granny square is great because you can make it assembly line fashion, and it is a good portable project. You don’t have to have a giant blanket to cart around, you can bring 1 ball of each color and make this project on the go whether you are traveling in an RV or even on an airplane.

Notes

These instructions are to create 1 granny square. I have worked out the pattern for a lap size blanket that measures 51 x 51 below:

Lap Size Daisy Granny Square

17 squares wide x 17 squares down. Total of 289 squares.

Yarn used: Yarn Bee Soft & Sleek low pill fiber from Hobby Lobby. This ball of yarn is 5 oz, 142 g, 232 yds, 213 meters. recommends a J-10 6mm hook and retails for $3.99. This yarn is very similar to red heart with love or vanna's choice. There are many amazing yarns that would be great for this project. Keep in mind that the math will be different if you pick a different yarn than I used.

Yarn Requirements for lap size blanket:

Yellow Yarn - 2 balls

White Yarn - 5 balls

Background (Blush) - 7 balls

*This does not include the yarn needed to join the squares together. You will need an additional ball or more of background depending on which method you choose. If you sew them together, you need 1 additional ball. If you join as you go with an additional round of background you will need more, but you can make less squares with that method since they will be larger. If you are unsure, I recommend buying more yarn and keeping the receipt so you can return it if you are on a budget and ensure they have the yarn you need should you run out in the future.

Here is my tutorial for 3 different ways to join granny squares.
