“People who have been making granny squares for 20 years” Me, who learned to crochet at age 5, who’s first project was a granny square, turning 21 in a few months and realizing I’m 🤏🏻 this close to being considered “granny square expert”

[@ourgirls01]

AGE 5? that so impressive. and so cool you continued with it. great job!

[@graciescruggs3320]

i would say you are if your have been crocheting since 5

[@earth-]

A little late, but happy birthday :D

[@WhoIsKatie29]

I thought I was young when I learned at 12! Impressive. You got everyone’s respect 🫡

[@Leela1945]

ha ha

[@julieandersen6795]

I would looove a pattern for this where the neckline etc. would be described in depth. It is so pretty!

[@janne2929]

I just watched a video of yours, where you said you wanted to do something with granny squares so bad, and I'm so happy you finally did it 😭 And it turned out great, looks really good with the skirt!!

[@rebelpride75]

Your sweater matches your skirt perfectly in the last clip after you’ve gotten done

[@lisakaye3935]

OMG the satisfaction of looking at the stack of granny squares ❤️❤️❤️ Same sis 🙌🏻

[@Itzkylie12]

I think I’m addicted to her vids I have watched all of them…

[@sarapiburn2523]

That sweater is adorable!💜💜💜

[@annereidy7981]

Well worth the effort!

[@ilincamodringa263]

OMG is that orange skirt on you crocheted?? if it is, can you please make a pattern for it? it looks wonderful 😻

[@elizabethburnside6393]

Hi I'm looking for some help, I bought my first surger (a singer) and no matter what I do the threads keep breaking, even the expensive ones,can you help please?

[@238Tina1]

Beautiful work you have inspired me to start making granny squares and see where it takes me! Also I literally said in my head before you said it out loud “like a pharmacist” 😂😂💕

[@juliedehalleux373]

I'm rewatching the crochet/knitting videos, waiting patiently for the fantastic house to be finished... And I can't wait to see the next crochet videos IN the fantastic house...

[@ombrenue4674]

ME TOOOO

[@SamediDeNovembre]

ahahaha can't wait

[@genevieveprovencio262]

Doing the same thing 😂

[@genevieveprovencio262]

She’s so cute and creative ❤

[@bellasundy5447]

Same here ❤

[@asmaa_vlog_85]

I just randomly found her channel in my recommendation now i'm obsessed with her videos she's so freaking talented.♥️🍡💗💕🍨🎂🥰💖🍧🍭💘🥳🎡💖🎉✨🎂💞🎠🎠🧁🥰🍓♥️🍓

[@victorialove9104]

Me too

[@beckyjohnson9917]

I just found her today👍🏻

[@luluxpixiie472]

Yeah me too and I can’t stop watching and I’m knitting while I watch her and it’s such a vibe😊😊😊

[@jasminecortez8774]

Same there so fun to match 😊

[@kiri6139]

Like same lol love her❤

[@CheritiWatts]

I find Jenna to be entertaining, but the “Benson break” which put dog eating noises into my earbuds was really gross and I almost left the video. Luckily I remembered that I could fast forward, because I was massively curious about the finished product. It turned out great! I really don’t understand how she doesn’t look like she’s wearing an afghan. (I might have granny square afghan trauma from the 70s.) it looks really cute on her. Makes me want to try making some cotton granny squares.

[@linneae4363]

What is the name of the dinosaur documentary?? 👀🦖

[@mouseboots46]

Doesn't matter how long it takes you. What matters is that it comes out square, consistent tension, real corners on all four corners, and hopefully all of them are the same size! I think somewhere in storage is a little booklet of "shrink vests" that are made with two granny squares, each large enough to cover your chest (not completely). Then plain crochet sections for the sides, shoulder straps, bottom band.

[@sarapiburn2523]

I just subscribed to your channel! You’re so much fun and very talented. I’m 75 and taught myself to crochet on u tube during the pandemic. I think you’re the cutest! Keep bringing your fun and very informative videos! I love them!💜💜💜

[@sobreira-martyndesign3317]

You make my day! Always makes me smile when I hear you say “I hope everyone is super dandy today!” You’re like an accessory I need to put on before I conquer the day. You’re full of energy and make me feel happy. Thank you! Keep doing what you do and never change!

[@reevavyas7791]

what is the name of the documentary ?

[@corynhaley]

Love this sweater, makes me want to make one of my own!😍 cotton is the softest for wearables but be warned it does stretch out quite a bit!

[@AtHomewithSharaC]

Love it! I just finished a granny cardigan.

[@karenkrafts]

I must say I was not expecting something made from granny squares to look so nice. You did a great job. And I love it with the skirt.

[@bgummeson]

I *love* how this turned out. The royal blue for the sleeve gusset and tops of sleeves was perfect! Btw I follow the channel that you learned JAYGo from. She is an excellent instructor, and I watched her JAYGo video when I was using it in a project I haven’t finished yet. Time to get back to it!

[@strawberry_milk1025]

She- “it takes me 30 mins “ Me- Takes 2 hours to make one granny square 😭😭❤️

[@audreyhilger4733]

Can we talk about how her editing is iconic?

[@angeliee]

noted: grapes make you crochet faster

[@patriciamarieogemgbodile504]

Just a nit picky request: in your description box, could you include the links to the tutorial videos you mentioned? Great video btw. And congrats on your website!

[@zum.fairlieben]

absolutely adorable! It's really amazing how you combine so many different coloures and they match just perfektly 💙

[@TheMjsPrincess]

Honestly I have literally only just found your videos by chance and you are my new fave on here! I’ve been crocheting for 12 years but I was originally watching all your sewing videos (because you’ve inspired me to get my machine fixed and make some clothes) then I realised you crochet aswell!! I’ve binged watched your videos for the last 4 days lol loving your content ❤️❤️❤️so so refreshing

[@elaaa222]

Hii! So happy to see another video ur so inspiring love ur energy💓🐇🌱

[@hijab.t.s13]

Omggg hi jenna!!! I love your stufffff omlll

[@annabellepower4009]

it’s adorable i reminds me of the sweater you made out of the granny square blanket

[@HonestVocalCoach]

I can do them in 5 mins now!

[@kathleenhensley5951]

Mrs. Phipps, what happens is when you have been crocheting for 40 plus years, like i have, your hands just take off on their own.I'm 73, I've been crocheting since I was in 4th grade. My guess is about 11-12? If I'm following a pattern (like the sleeves of a cardigan) I'm slower because I'm a stickler for being exact, but it's like the programming is in your hands. I had a very elaborate bedspread square in fine thread. I had made an entire bedspread with it and then lost the pattern. One day, I just picked up thread and hook and started the square... my hands knew the pattern, exactly. I even remembered how to join them correctly. I felt like I wasn't even thinking of the pattern. That is where the speed comes from. If I am making a pattern stitch ( I mean something like popcorns or fans) I love, and have done before, my speed picks up. I am amazed to see how popular the granny square is becoming. My mom used to make bedspreads of them.. I used to wear vests of them at one of my first jobs, a saleswoman at a fancy department store in 1972-74! I've never had the nerve just to play with patterns like you do, I'm a pattern collector and have always been so. I have books and magazines from the very early 70s! Oh, say hi to Benson. He's a cutie. PS. The only thing that slows me down is when the arthritis gets bad.

[@ConniieBearrr]

I needed a warning for Benson's food eating that made my body cringe!! Just me prob xD

[@xMicoMemeex]

Why didn’t I get a notification, this 👏 is 👏 important 👏 to 👏 me 👏 Anyways - I just learned to make a sunburst granny square 😍☀️ it also looks like a sunflower 🌻

[@holosapiens]

very nice! I think you should add small ribbing to the bottom and the sleeves to finish it off nicely

[@graciescruggs3320]

HEYY JENNA! i’ve been watching you for a while and i love your work

[@caroleberreur9585]

Bam bam, chicken turkey! Good work. 🤩

[@brittanyonnen5086]

That turned out too cute!! Great work 👏 The colors are distributed and paired extremely well, too!

[@cmtarr7]

Anybody know what weight yarn n hk size please?? Thank you x

[@chickadeeacres3864]

Well dang, You got this granny tempted to try making herself that sweater. My stash is perfect for playing with! Thanks for the inspiration Jenna! (Waving from Ontario)🇨🇦

[@kenzieelle]

I love benson but ngl I hated that benson break 😂 the noises omg

[@sarih7832]

So pretty. Is your yarn cotton? What size One square is cm?

[@irisvandenieuwegiessen5533]

Hi Jenna! Can you please make a video on how you wash your handmade clothes?

[@tomasgumundsson8135]

IM 13 and i been crocheting for a year and i did a granny square in 7 min

[@TaliMca231]

currently making a granny square blanket! Making it with sunflower granny squares and I've run out of yarn so many times. Grannys squares eat up yarn like nobody's business

[@relitin]

This cardigan is so beautiful 😍 I really wanna make this too!! But also that skirt in the last try on is fire!! Is there a pattern for it??

[@lisareid7043]

You have inspired me to not give up and I see how taking what I don’t like apart and doing it again will produce something wonderful! Thank you

[@tabitha6201]

I love this video Jenna! The jumper turned out sooo beautifully. I love your colour combos, they are always so unexpected to me but work so well together. I would love to see the steaming/blocking process in the future!!

[@clvudii_.22]

hii

[@RenaeFlowers]

I have never liked the look of granny square sweaters, but that looks so good! I love the neckline and arm shaping! Inspirational!

[@maurysnijders935]

WOW! I LOVE IT ✨️ Which cotton do you use and which crochet hook? i want to make it too 😁

[@pyjamabottoms670]

"And then I remembered - I have a neck"

[@Woolpedia-Kanal]

I‘m obsessed with these videos ❤

[@varyaartsandcraftsandmore5396]

I love this sweater I really want to make a sweater

[@missbeaussie]

That lomi looks incredible. Hopefully the cost will go doable down eventually. Your dog is adorable. Could have done without the dogwood asmr. You did great. I allergic to wool so great to hear this was soft and comfy

[@moda78z]

Jenna, it’s beautiful!! And I love the colors 😍

[@agusmayer13]

im crocheting right now and i was looking for a video to feel accompanied and i thought "it'd great if jenna posted a new video crocheting" cause yours are my favorites AND HERE I AM LADIES AND GENTLEMEN

[@Corduroykidd]

You are so entertaining Jenna. I love watching your videos while I crochet, keeps me in the zone haha. I've never really made anything with granny squares either despite how long I've been crocheting. Maybe this is a sign that I need to try it out?

[@joanneswinehart4976]

It’s so cute!!! You are quite the designer my friend ❤️. Thanks for sharing the journey with us 🤗🤗🤗

[@LiliaceaeLilium]

That jumper looks incredible! And now I want to make my own. Damn it. I'm still working on my humongous sunburst granny square blanket xD Well... Now I know what I'll do once that one's finished...

[@amyelizabeth9088]

I miss seeing, 👉🏻 "NEW POST and TUTORIALS" 👈🏻... PLEASE, 🙏🏻 PLEASE, 🙏🏻PLEASE 🙏🏻 "ADD new CONTENT" 🙏🏻...💋♥️💋 #love

[@mikkelineelleby1489]

[@marineleborgne7505]

yesss need to know

[@susieinthecountry4434]

the worsted weight #4 yarn would just be too hot for me so I will try a #3, thanks for sharing your granny journey! loved the way you improvised attaching the sleeves to the body!

[@lisareid7043]

Wow, it turned out just beautiful!

[@gracevatter2232]

I love your videos! I love just sitting down and crocheting along while watching your videos it makes me feel like I have friend to crochet with!

[@cmtarr7]

Beautifu colours l 🤎💚💙 Fab imagination for use of Granny Squares n style of sweater, just up my street 🥰 Pattern in on ur website would b fab! Keep creating, ur amazing ❤

[@jacquelinebarber4754]

Love this. Are you planning to write a pattern for how you did the neck area and top of the sleeves?

[@jessicaeliza8290]

The colours are actually perfect. Screaming at how cute it is!💕🤩🫶

[@wikstromemilia]

NOT ME LEARNING THE JOIN AS YOU GO METHOD AS I'M WATCHING THIS 😂 And the same tutorial 😂😂

[@dovaillancourt]

Hey Jenna ! I was wondering which application you are using for sketching. Thanks a bunch ! I really like your quirkiness and authenticity ! Much love from a fellow Canadian !

[@sannevanboven2847]

I love it! 🥰 did you also make the skirt, if so, do you have a Pattern for it? ☺️

[@guindilla21]

I love this project. How do you make those kinds of sleeves? I would like to do it, and I haven't found any resources for that. If you can, please send me some recommendations. I would appreciate it! 👏

[@annettekouba3631]

Love your videos! I wonder what kind of yarn you use. I couldn't find it. Thanx for any tipps! I am using cotton but you said your is cosy... mine isn't.

[@joshuawalker3402]

I know it’s been two years when you made this but I just started making a granny square sweater and when you said some people can make one in 10 min I was it takes me like. 30 I feel the same way

[@erikaekpiken9196]

firsttttt

[@Melek1739]

I'm turkish. My English doesn't good. Please somebody explain to me "super dandy" because I don't understand what you mean

[@loveloreal]

Does your table break down smaller?.... i think there is a better word for that but "break down smaller" hopefully comes close. IF it does, can you please share where it comes from por favor?

[@andreatalu2169]

So, so super cool. Love it like you present your style. Bravo girl. Hugs from Germany 🇩🇪 ❤

[@nanciumphres9001]

Love it Jenna! I like the colors you chose and I really like how it pairs with the skirt. Just lovely

[@elainestewart6421]

What yarn did you use?

[@rachelrose9915]

I just started making granny squares and the most basic one will take me about a half hour. 25 mins if I’ve got a good rhythm

[@aliyajoramey]

Jenna: 😊Look At It.😊 😱LOOK AT IT!!!!😱 🥺 look at it🥺 me: I See. I SEE. i see

[@zozeeb]

Obsessed with this!! But I would love to know more in depth how you created the neck and shoulder to connect the front and back, as well as the sleeve triangle. Great work!

[@clauthesuper]

May I ask what's the name of the dinosaurs documentary? Love your channel!!

[@olivianevi4272]

I love the sweater 💕

[@jenniferwiersma2386]

Depends on how big I make the square but normally takes me a shorter amount of time to do a granny square verses other stitches. I say may 7-10 minutes is an average for me

[@yungyus_hat]

yesss! i've been waiting for more videos of you crocheting. you're so talented keep up the work

[@PilarValderramaGuerra]

I've been waiting for this video for a long time, I love the sweater and I hope I can encourage myself to make my own! ♥ greetings from Chile!

[@lindsey7273]

I don’t think your split leaf plant is getting enough sun. That might be why there aren’t a lot of “splits”

[@FirstNameJuju]

I don't understand the purpose of these videos because you don't show the process of crocheting or connecting the pieces, I'm so confused

[@laurelgirard8475]

You had two interesting sweaters on the right side of the thumbnail for this video. Do you recall what they were?

[@ambermashal]

Aghh i wana make one so bad along with a cardigan but it’s summer in the south now so that would be the most impractical thing ever rn😞

[@jonathansfavorites]

Cotton is nice, but it doesn't hold it's shape well. Blends can sometimes work.

[@turkeyrosesgarden690]

you just inspired me to make one of these!

[@marccolomayt82094]

cutest sweater ever! 😍

[@shelleysmith6667]

Cute sweater: 🤩😍 Dog chewing sound: 🤢😵‍💫

[@lindafaught58]

I love this outfit! So darn cute. YAY - it came out just perfect.

[@amandahilsinger3991]

What brand yarn is this and what size is it? Also what was the stitch in light blue near the collar? So beautiful
