Granny Stitch Triangle Shwal :: Free Pattern

Hello Friends, 

I'm back with another easy pattern and video tutorial. This time we have a super easy crochet granny stitch triangle shawl. The granny stitch is so verstile, and not exclusive to the granny square - although the granny square deserves all the love it gets! After the first few rows, it's so easy to get the hang of this pattern and it's very relaxing, but addictive at the same time!
