I picked 2 granny square patterns that sounded fun, and used them to make
a lacy top.  It took 4 squares for the front, and 4 more for the back.  I
filled in the sides and sleeves with smaller squares of one of the
patterns, and a bit of plain crochet.
It came out nice, if I do say so myself.
BARD has a book called something like Great Granny Squares, in braille,
full of interesting patterns.
