This is a tutorial on how to crochet a granny square to any size for beginner crocheters who already know how to crochet the basic stitches. I show how you can turn a small granny square into a giant granny square blanket and offer plenty of tips and tricks along the way. Although I use US terminology, people who want to use UK can also use this tutorial and every time I say double crochet, think treble crochet instead. This is the right handed version of this tutorial. There is a left handed version linked further down!

You crochet so very beautifully,That grannie square is the prettiest I think I have ever seen, And I am 90 years old.enjoyed watching you.Thank you so much.

[@annastasiadobbins5585]

A blanket like this would scare me but you really broke it down and made it easy to understand! Thank you, looking forward to starting on one very soon!

[@meemamakes]

This is really brilliant feedback and that's exactly why I make tutorials! I'm so happy they have been helpful and good luck on your blanket journey!

[@annastasiadobbins5585]

Question, you mention using double knit weight yarn? Can I use a worsted size 4 weight instead do you think?

[@meemamakes]

@@annastasiadobbins5585 you can use any size yarn you like for this blanket but you’ll need to adjust your hook size. We don’t class our yarn as worsted weight in the UK but from google it’s the same as our aran weight so with a 5mm hook? This weight yarn is good for blankets too 😁

I Love your Voice. Very relaxin 😊 Ive done granny square afgans for many years now. I remember My Sweet Mom setting in front of the television watching The Ed Sullivan Show and making her squares for "her quilt" as she called them❤ ive often wondered why they were called or given the name "granny". Does anyone know? Your afgan is absolutely beautiful and i ordered the exact colors and brand of yarn that you used on yours. The yarn is very soft. I hadn't paid attention as to what size crochet hook to use until i looked . Ive never used one that small before so i had to buy one. Now i know how the afgan can be as large with so little yarn. A #4 crochet hook😂 Again, thank you for sharing your Gift with us, God Bless You❤

Thank you for such an excellent instructional video! You have such a calming and patient demeanor. 😊. I've subscribed and will have to watch again to get started. I've been doing straight line blankets with a few different stitches (my favorite right now is Alpine!) but I've been wanting to try granny squares. I'm most intimidated by all the ends to weave in so I will be looking for your tutorial on how to do that next! Thank you again. 😊

You explain so well thank you , i enjoy your videos you have a very sweet , clear relaxing voice . I coild watch you crochete for hours . I finally understand the granny square thank you . If iam only using one color will my granny squares stretch out badly i wont be turning to work on the back side because i wont be adding any other colors . Any advice? I want to use a cake yarn that changes color in its own for a big franny square blanket like the one tour showing. Thanks again ❤

[@meemamakes]

I’m so glad this tutorial helped you! When using one colour you can still turn, but I don’t have a tutorial for this just yet. It is on my to do list though so I’ll try and get it filmed next week. You don’t have to turn, but your square may end up a little wonky on the sides but this is still fine and looks good too!

[@meemamakes]

Hi Claire, do you don’t need to cut at the end of each round, it’s quite easy to continue on with one ball of yarn. This will actually be the next tutorial I’m uploading to KZbin but I’m currently off sick so not sure when this will be, I’m hoping for next week. I have an older tutorial on tiktok showing it if you can’t wait or you could search for “one colour granny square” on KZbin.

[@boldergymnast42]

If I was using one color would I still turn my work after each round and just work the opposite direction?

[@meemamakes]

Yes this is what I do, it is on my to do list to do a one colour granny square tutorial for KZbin. I am filming later this week so will do it then. I have 2 tutorials on it on tiktok if you can’t wait but I do not turn these squares over between rows in these tutorials to keep them simpler as tiktok has time limits. vm.tiktok.com/ZGJHT697u/ and vm.tiktok.com/ZGJHTLEvF/

[@boldergymnast42]

Okay no worries!! This was a great tutorial and super informative! I just got a little confused with how to turn it when not fastening off between color changes but if it’s the same as I would turn a normal row-to-row blanket then that makes sense!

How many rounds precisely does it take to get a blanket as large as yours? And do I wait until the end of the whole project to weave ends in

[@meemamakes]

Mine was 54 rounds and measured just over 1 meter square but this size entirely depends on your tension. My tension for this blanket ended up being quite tight! And regarding ends, it’s entirely your own preference. I like leaving them to the end because I enjoy weaving them all in at once.

@@meemamakes what was the pattern for your last round? I really like the blankets border but I can't figure out how to do it

[@novaekelmans1444]

Thank you so much for this great tutorial!! I am planning to make this blanket for my next project! How many grams/balls of yarn would you recommend for a big blanket?

[@meemamakes]

It depends on the size of the yarn and your definition of "big blanket". I find that around 3600m of DK weight yarn makes a blanket that easily covers a single bed with overhang, 4800m will cover a double bed, and 6000m will cover a Super King bed with overhang.
