HOW to CROCHET a GRANNY SQUARE for Beginners - Super Easy and Quick!

HOW to CROCHET a GRANNY SQUARE for Beginners - Super Easy and Quick! Plus Tips on Changing Colors.
Granny Squares have been around forever, haven't they? Hi I'm Donna Wolfe from Naztazia. In this tutorial video, I show you how to make this very pretty and colorful granny square crochet pattern, which works up super fast and easy. These work great for a crochet blanket as well as a crochet scarf.
For this sample I'm using scraps from other crochet projects. Specifically I'm using worsted weight yarn and a size H 5 mm crochet hook. Feel free to adjust your hook or yarn size to your liking.

Wow thank you! I’m super new to crocheting, and was able to make a really awesome granny square with these intructions. So easy to follow along!

I finally did it! Thank you so much for your excellent septs of demonstration with the process of verbalizing the corners and sides. This helped me with learning.

My mom taught me this but with only one chain between each set of 3 dc and 2 chains between the 3 dc in corners. Thank you love your tutorials ❤️

[@Scorpio_Love_11]

That is the first way I learned too but everyone has their own way of doing things. I have seen at least 6 different ways of making granny squares from different people.

I love.it.I love. The.way.you.did the ends ❤1🙏➕️

[@naztazia]

So what do you think of the method of starting with a more secure slip knot and slip stitch, then crocheting over tail ends to change colors? All of those color changes and only one tail end to sew in!

[@susananderson3478]

I loved that! Donna I love all your toots….I am currently making a granny square baby blanket with center heart……truth…I prefer making a continuous granny! Lol!

[@MsLadybug1974]

It looked like you had crocheted in the back part of your finished granny square to make it like a raised flower? Can I ask how that is accomplished? Thank you! Your instructional videos have helped me tremendously.

[@lovinglanguages1]

Where do you get your bright yarn colors? I love them!

[@kelleyannlahey2372]

Great video. May i ask where you got your hook? Love it.

[@naztazia]

Thank you! Custom made gift from the husband :)

[@yorickfossil7274]

Thank you for such a clear video! Are the finished dimensions listed somewhere? I was wondering roughly how many to make a blanket.

[@naztazia]

Thanks! This is just a general tutorial. If you make up one square with your chosen yarn and hook, and then measure it, you can see how many of them you'll need for the size blanket you want.

[@yorickfossil7274]

@@naztazia Thanks! I'll do that.

Donna I love making Granny squares, the one thing that I have a problem with sewing together bc when you end one with a knot I does not have the “v”

[@jalissa102]

Thank you. Your video is very easy to follow I been so lost how to do a granny square. I have watched a lot videos

[@donnaeiler3179]

I’ve still yet to get all the corners on one of these!

[@biggkub9338]

I've tried following your video. The center of the first square bulks up too much and becomes almost impossible to work with. Even after several rewatches I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I use the same center hole like you do but it gets too bilky too fast. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

[@ayseyurdanurozaydn9721]

I miss you 😘 It's very nice 👌 😍💯♥️🧿💥💅💢🙏🍭💐

[@aquafinner1505]

what do you do if your granny square comes out all crooked and looks crowded and like a circle? does anyone have any tips? my grandma said it’s a tension problem but i have no idea how to change this

[@irenew6202]

My question is will the ends come out when you wash the granny square

[@naztazia]

None of my ends over the past 40+ years of crocheting have ever come out using this method. The key though to keep the ends from unravelling the work is to start with the slip knot, then the slip stitch for every new color. That alone is very secure. Also, that extra chain-1 fastening off method keeps things secure as well.

[@irenew6202]
