Crochet this gorgeous chunky daisy granny square blanket and add a touch of coziness and warmth to your home! The granny squares work up quickly using bulky level 5 yarn, and you can choose any color combination you want!

The free crochet pattern can be found on my blog here (link to kit available too): www.allaboutami.com/cozy-days...
Yarn used: Hue + Me (Agave, Salt, Mustard)
Hook used: 8 mm and 10 mm Clover Amour

Hey Ami I’m 12 and finding your pattern really helpful. Crocheting calms me and reminds me of my late auntie this video is the reason I got into crochet and I just want to say thank you.❤❤

[@rubylove8070]

I think it’s so cool to see people and how they started or what their experience is. I love seeing people who grew up crocheting or were taught and then the groups who taught themselves. The people who started with blankets and hats and sweaters and then people who started with stuffed animals and toys! It’s so interesting to me because to me anyone with a hook and some yarn and ends up with a completed piece is super talented bc crocheting is not easy sometimes. I learned about 2-4 years ago just by watching some KZbin videos. The first thing I ever made was this TERRIBLE and small looking blanket for my grandma which I now own now that she has passed. I was so proud yet embarrassed but she loved it and used it all the time. Now I am trying to add to it so that I can use it myself and enjoy the piece that started my passion for crochet and was a prized possession by a dear loved one. I always struggled with stuffed animals and things like that but have made granny square sweaters and hats and blankets and pillows for people- patterns and sometimes no pattern at all! I love the crochet community out there and how supportive we are. To all those out there watching this- happy crocheting!!!

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Aww thank you so much for sharing your heartfelt message ❤️ I love hearing about how people started their crochet journeys too and what projects they began with. The crochet community is awesome and there is always so much to learn and new projects and techniques to try! 🧶 Happy crocheting!

[@brandyrippon4850]

Thank you for this beautiful pattern and tutorial! I bought the pattern from your Etsy, but I just had a quick question. When you say to slip stitch into the first single crochet to close round 2, does this mean the first single crochet stitch ever (like from round 1) or the first single crochet stitch from round 2? Like other commenters, I’ve been ending up with an extra stitch and it’s noticeable when I do the clusters in round 3 ☹️ I’m a beginner, so I apologize if this is a silly question, but I appreciate any insight you can offer!

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

You’re very welcome! Thank you for your kind words! To close round 2, you will slip stitch to the first single crochet that you made in round 2. This slip stitch “overtakes” the single crochet from below. Thus, when it is time to work the petals in each of the 12 stitches from Round 2, you actually work the petal in that slip stitch (and not the single crochet below it)! This should make it cleaner so that you don’t have that extra gap!

The play back is better but still needs more description as you can't see what yours pulling through very easily. I'm really struggling to understand what goes where even on the slow speed

@@AllAboutAmiBlogFrankly, I feel it’s insulting to ask to slow the video down. Have you tried it? Never mind that listening for so long to slowed down sound gives you a stomachache . Your fingers are in the way of your work. If you’re following from a smartphone even zooming in the image is tiny and when you pause/play the play/pause button overlaps your work, which makes it really hard to follow. I spent two days following ALL of your daisy square videos to try and figure out the daisy here in the blanket because this video here I’m commenting under - to me - is impossible to follow because you skip way too many steps. I was quite happy with my daisy square result following your daisy bag video which - again, to me - is the most discernible one only to find out that that daisy square background is not the same as the blanket’s! TBH, at this particular moment I’m feeling quite furious since I purchased your pattern for this blanket from your website and between the tiny photos you feature on your .pdf pattern and the - pardon, me - poor instructions enclosed plus the Lion wool I purchased for it shipped all the way from the US, which I did happily and looking forward to the result and which also didn’t come cheap, I’m not a happy bunny! I forgot to mention the ads that come up on your videos whilst playing back at .25 speed to interrupt the amount of concentration needed to get some results. My feedback to you is, if you want to showcase your talent, showcase. If you want to teach, teach. In this situation you can’t proverbially ‘kill’ the two birds with one stone. Things done by halves are never done right. I shall appreciate if you would kindly provide me with clear instructions on how to complete this project. I shall like to complete it. Firstly because for me, money doesn’t grow on trees, secondly because I wouldn’t have invested in this project both monetarily and with my time, which nobody is ever going to give back to me, if I didn’t like it. If your .pdf were comprehensive, I wouldn’t need your free of charge KZbin videos. You told me too, in another comment, to slow the video down. What should I do with the print out of your pattern to make it clearer, any suggestions? Seriously, it’s insulting to be told to slow your videos down so that you can monetize your KZbin videos because tutorials get more views than anyone showcasing their work. PLS, I shall appreciate if you would amend this situation. Kind Regards.

@@Alex_and_Imoney doesn’t grow on trees?? her pattern is like $5 you’re acting like she stole your car LOL. just go find another creator to follow if you hate these instructions so much. there are other daisy blanket patterns on YT that you can use your materials for. remember crocheting is supposed to be fun

[@Ahmlu]

@@Alex_and_IIf you can’t follow a pattern as simple as a granny square blanket in video and in paper, I suggest you get more familiar with basics stitches. Try simpler things. Making a blanket can be very labor intensive and costly. Don’t let your frustration with this project stop you from creating more simple, but beautiful projects.

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Thank you so much, Joan! I'm glad you like this blanket!

[@sophiaz.1083]

I am losing my mind trying to do this, even bought the pattern from your Etsy. After crocheting 12 single crochets into the magic circle, we add the slip stitch into the first one, which makes us end up with 13 stitches as a whole. Then in the next round I end up with 14 single crochets into these stitches and add ANOTHER through the connection with the slip stitch. What am I doing wrong? 😭

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Hi Sophia! After working 12 single crochets in the Magic Circle, you have 12 stitches - the slip stitch to the first single crochet does not count as a stitch since you're using it to close up the round. To begin Round 2, you chain 1 and then work 1 single crochet in the SAME st (where you slip stitched to close round). Thus, your number of stitches remains the same since you continue having 12 stitches! When it's time to close up Round 2, be sure to slip stitch to the FIRST SC, not the slip stitch or the chain 1!

[@lovelyA88.]

As a beginner I had the same issue.. this is what helped me… In round 1 Mark your first single crochet loop with a marker… count exactly 12 single crochets for round two… it’s going to look like your skipping loop # “13(the chain stitch)” and go straight into the loop with your marker to chain stitch closed… ☺️ hope this helps

[@LUCKEY11202.]

Fun video,thank you. I made my 1st square using the same pretty colors you chose for the square in this tutorial.❤

[@sophiaz.1083]

@allaboutami and lovely a: thank you both so much! I will work on my next blanket granny square tomorrow probably. Will open this comment section again for that and tackle it! I love the crochet community 💜

[@annakopyl269]

might be a different type of granny square we are talking about but I followed a different tutorial for pretty much the same concept, and instead of the magic circle I started with chaining five and doing the tiny chain into a circle, then chain 3, then I do 15 double crochets, join with a slip stitch, then chain three, then I do a puff stitch in every stitch from previous row starting from the current stitch, we got 16 puffs as a result. The rest should be straight forward just counting how many of the other kinds of stitches you can fit in

[@thine.]

if anyone is having trouble with the outer part, the square, bending as if theres too much, i reccomend that when you're first doing the corners you di 2dc 2ch 2dc instead of 3dc 2ch 3dc! i did that and it was better for the yarn i was using

I can’t follow : the instructions are not clear enough for a beginner. To start with, what is a magic ring? It is way too fast. Please do again much more slowly. I would love to make this but feel like crying.

You can find my separate video for the magic ring! And to slow down the entire video, you can click “Settings” and “adjust playback speed” to 0.5x or 0.25x 🧶

[@RidaHaq]

This is my first ever crochet project but imo it was perfect to follow 🤷‍♀️

[@rashnamohamed1009]

This video isn't targeted toward beginners. She doesn't explain what anything is. Not just magic ring; she doesn't explain what a chain stitch is, or a single crochet, or a double crochet, or a yarn over, a chain 3 space, or anything else, because it is a tutorial for people who already know how to crochet. It's not a beginner tutorial that explains what each thing is. It's a video demonstrating the completion of a crochet pattern. If you want to learn how to do each of the individual components, you'd have to look them up separately.

[@vivi-ig9nv]

Before starting this project (which is my first one), I looked up how to do the stitches and basic knowledge of crochet with other videos. You just need very basic, but some previous knowledge to do this is necessary :)

[@YeoMiniYoshi]

She never targeted, not even in the title, the video towards beginners. So maybe you should tone down your comment, since it isn’t her fault you don’t know the basics to do this project from the get go. Perhaps you’d find it easier to first learn the basics from other tutorials/videos, work your way up the difficulty levels, work on other, more beginner friendly projects first, and then circle back to this one. Not every creator needs to edit their content to cater to everyone, beginner or expert. They’re free to post the way they’re more comfortable posting, it is her channel after all and as a not total beginner, but definitely not an expert, i found her video totally fine, if I’m ever in doubt about something i’ll just do a quick research on the side and that’s it.
