updating granny's bed

i've been thinking about making a giant crochet blanket for my bed. while i think highly of my knitting accomplishments, my crochet is definitely at a beginner level, or more accurately, an as needed for my knitting level.

i love the look of these vegetal colors. i think this is vintage, but over-dying with tea or a brown would give a similar look to new wool.

i love the look of white granny squares, but i do not keep a home that allows for white anything.
