The Granny Square Card Deck is the perfect tool to help you mix and match granny square designs for any handmade project, this stylish card deck can be easily slipped into your bag for on-the-go crochet. Each square is made using the same hook and yarn weight and is the same finished size, so that the squares can be joined together in any combination with ease.
