      I’d love to make a blanket with the granny squares. I used to know how to crochet in the most basic way possible. 😂 Let’s hope this goes well.

      @@tinak.3022 it will go great! If you’re interested, I have both a free learn to crochet masterclass and a granny square blanket pattern that I can send you.
      If you know the basics, the masterclass will help you brush up on things that you might not already know and also teach you some more super helpful tips and techniques. And the granny square blanket uses a super bulky yarn so it works up really quickly but I also take you through the entire thing so that even if you’re not using a super bulky yarn you’ll still know how to create your own granny square blanket using any yarn that you’d like ❤️

    I haven’t been doing granny squares because of the slip stitching over. I’ve seen another way that works, but this follows more of the traditional way. When slip stitching, what would happen if you slipped into to loops of the chain? (My normal way of joining.)
