Finishing
I decided to use a tree branch to hang it on the wall- I chained as many as needed according to the hanging technique you chose. And just tied the chain to the piece on both sides of each square.
You can add fringe or tassels at the bottom for a more Boho-style

Why and How to Block This Wall Hanging
Once you’ve finished crocheting your flower granny square wall hanging, you might notice that it looks a bit wobbly or uneven.
Not to worry! Blocking is like giving your creation a spa day. You gently shape and stretch it to make sure all the stitches look neat and tidy. Lay your piece flat on a clean towel, pin it into the right shape, and mist it with water.
Let it dry, and voilà – your wall hanging will look polished and perfect, ready to take its place as a stunning work of art on your wall!
