recently my boss purchased a crocheted lampshade from a merchant fair in paris and it got me thinking about the endless lampshade crafting possibilities. i found some that combine doilies and little flowers, pearls … my dead iowan great grandma would go crazy over this, i wish i could make one for her.

they are so easy and accessible to make. just buy one hook and find some scrappy yarn. you can make them single or multi-coloured! you can make them as small or large as you like! eventually you will have enough to make a scarf or bag or top or blanket!
i taught my mum how to crochet granny squares during lockdown (she is the least crafty person ever) and she secretly made me a blanket out of them 🥹

This is my new favourite kind of crochet project. It's great for using up small balls of yarn/scraps and they can be relatively quick projects if you keep them small (the apple one is 17x47, the bow one is 20x20, the swan one is 24x27 stitches) so if you get bored with projects quickly it's a good choice. There are so many different grids you can find I get mine off Pinterest. Since my pieces are very small I think I'm going to sew them all together plus more to create a pillow case, but there are so many other things you can with with this technique like framing them or using this style of colour work in a larger piece like a jumper.
