[@PDay-gc7wm]

I love that you went slow and repeated instructions each row. Finally a tutorial we can follow!! And I love the way you hold your working yarn between two fingers for tension instead of the wrap around pinky and index finger, which I have never been successful with. Excellent video!!! Thank you for making this tutorial.

You’re welcome… and thank you for watching… ❤️

I' am somewhat of a new crocheter and i've made a few projects before but i've never tried making a granny square with the gifts that i created because of how challanging i thought it was i am so glad i found this video the instructions are clear and very helpful thank you so much for posting this video..❤

[@soozalongtheway]

Hi! 😃 I'm not bored, lol ... I'm brand new to crocheting, and have been wanting to learn to make a granny square. I've watched a bunch of videos, and as you know there are lots of variations, but I like the way you are making yours and LOVE your colors! Yay for Dollar tree!! 🤗 Thanks for being repetitive for us newbies! It definitely helps!! ❤

You are so welcome… thanks for watching… ❤️

Am I the only one who didn't know Dollar Tree carried yarn?!

[@KrystleCMP]

I’ve been crocheting for about a month now and I was able to use this tutorial for my very first granny square. You explained everything well, step by step just the way I’d prefer. I’m 4 granny squares in and I’ve moved on to changing colors as well. Thanks so much for this! 😊🧶🧡

[@lauren_schaefer.13]

I’m learning how to crochet and this was the most helpful video that I actually understood out of maybe 15+ videos I’ve watched. I learned more stitches in this 30 minute video than I tried to learn when watching a 20 minute video with the very basics of crocheting. Thank you so much!

[@shirleyzook2511]

This Granny Square pattern is by far the best one I have ever used! Granny squares were hot when I was a teenager back in the 60’s, and I made quite a few projects using them. Apparently they are back in style again because my granddaughter asked me if I could make her a Granny Square afghan for her college dorm room. I figured there must have been some changes, improvements and innovations to the pattern over the past 60 years, so I jumped on KZbin, and sure enough there are plenty of patterns. I tried a few of the channels, (all very good) but THEN!!! Then I found your channel! Your pattern totally eliminates every one of the things I don’t like about Granny Squares: the holes were too large, it was one-sided, the color changes and row transitions were awkward and usually noticeable, and the millions of tails to tuck! It’s a winner in my book! I thank you so much for sharing it!! Also your tutorial is excellent, you are a born teacher. My granddaughter will have her Granny Square afghan🎉🙏🏻💛😄

[@barbarawhite5368]

I love the way to add colors and how you do your tails and turn your work. Thank you

[@abbymcfarlane]

Not board at all. I’m crocheting with you. Love that you go over stitches over and over. This is one of the best instructional videos of a granny square. Thank you for giving every detail for the beginners or the ones like myself who pick up crocheting every 6 years.😂

You hold your working yarn exactly like I do. I can’t hold it any other way. And I hold my hook like a pencil. I wish I could hold it like you do. It would put way less stress on my wrist. 😏

[@iluminameluna]

I've been crocheting a while now (12 yrs now!) but it has been a while since I made a basic granny square. So I began searching for a tut bcs I found out when I started making one a cpl of days ago that I wasn't quite comfortable w/ the ones I was making! 🤔 It turned out that I didn't even have one saved in my Beginner's Crocheting Playlist. How could I have been so neglectful! 😒 In looking through a LOT of vids, I finally found yours, and to find that I was Already a subscriber, well, that was a bit perplexing. In any case, your video tutorial was EXCELLENT. It was as I remembered how to do mine, w/ the one chain gap in the corners & no spaces in between on the sides (you know what I mean). What I had been getting in trouble w/ was how to finish the rounds, whether or not I was changing colors, & WHERE, whether it was on the side or a corner. Sometimes it's those details that make or break what your finished project will look like. AND, finally, you're absolutely RIGHT: you NEED to turn on every round of the Granny Square. Crocheting's stitches have a natural tendency to lean, to either side of whatever side you crochet, left or right hand. When you turn and go in the opposite direction from the one you were previously going, you "neutralize" that leaning of the previous turn. And each turn IN turn neutralizes the previous turn, etc. In the end you will have a perfectly balanced square! 😍
