These little granny squares with monsters are truly adorable!

No, these are not the scary monsters of nightmares; these are the cuddly cute variety! These squares are fabulous and so versatile, too! You could crochet an afghan or a blanket for your child, or make one to give away as a gift. Or just have a few of these squares around for such household uses as washcloths, dishcloths or even as trivets! Yes, adorable and versatile and a great stash buster, too.

These squares would also make a great project if you make and sell your crafts for profit. Perhaps they’ll go on to become your next best seller!
