Yes, it's time to show my inner crochet geek :) What says "crochet is making a huge comeback" better than a granny square dress appearing on the red carpet? A one-shouldered, full sleeved, ruffle-ornamented couture crochet dress. Cate Blanchett would look great in anything, but I love that she picked this to wear to the opening of an event down at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI).

I know some people have pretty strong opinions on granny squares, but honestly, she wears it really well and looks great!

  5. I love granny squares! Especially when they're in all different colours like this. Thanks for the incredibly awesome and sweet message you left on my blog last week. =) It totally made my day. I'm glad you like the maple mustard glazed veggies. They're a favourite for us too. We need to try it with different vegetables!
