Granny squares are usually pretty boring, but I liked this combination of large and small squares, the pattern for which I found on a wrapper of Lion Brand Wool-Ease (which is what the whole thing is made with). I began it shortly before finding out that my father had to go into the hospital for some rather unexpected heart surgery, so I ended up making it for him; I had to finish it in a rush, and barely managed to get it done in time; I visited him the weekend after the surgery, worked on it all weekend, and finished it Sunday night before I was due to leave (on Monday morning). The picture was taken at my parents' house in Arkansas.
