Hi pals! We are back this week after a much needed weekend off, and I have a granny square tutorial ready for you! This time I have it written (see below) and a video version as well! As always, if you have any questions feel free to send them my way.

The main reason for making this tutorial is that we have SO MANY granny square patterns coming out soon. A blanket, cardigan, bag, and potentially a few other things, but I am on a granny square kick and I can’t be stopped. Sorry not sorry. (And for those that aren’t granny square lovers, I still have a few patterns coming for you too! Just waiting on testers and release dates.)

Materials Needed:

• Yarn – I used Hobbii Kind Feather (this is an affiliate link. If you make a purchase using this I make a small commission, at no extra cost to you. Thank you!)
• Crochet Hook – I used a 5mm crochet hook.
• Tapestry Needle – For weaving in your ends.
• Scissors – For cutting your yarn.

Abbreviations:

• Ch: Chain.
• Sc: Single Crochet.
• Dc: Double Crochet.
• Slst: Slip Stitch.
