After researching and considering and pondering, I finally found a tutorial on joining granny squares on YouTube that I like. And understand. It shows the flat braid joining technique. It seems to work for me, and it's helping to even out the different sized squares.

My son was is so thrilled that I finally made a decision, and started making big progress on my blanket, that he decided to stand on his head. He's such a good boy. Yay.


In other news, the three-year-old decided to turn the cat into a giant, fluffy Valentine:

I was overwhelmed by the Valentine spirit and prepared a special lunch for said three-year-old. He took one look at his lunch tray and said, "But I want a square one!" And then he cried. This boy likes routine.

And finally, husband was so inspired by all our Valentine creating that's been taking place for weeks, and weeks, that he brought home flowers for all three of us!
