There are so many different granny squares. I use to know it by heart. Thank you. This is the square I taught myself when I was in high school. I am 71 years young 😊 and you saved my anxiety. This is what calms me down. I crocheted my mother who is 92 in her own apartment an afghan. It was a king size afghan. She still has it and it looks like new. I used this exact pattern. 😅😅😅 Thank you so much. I have subscribed to you. I'm so exhilarated. ❤❤❤❤
Like you, I’ve not crocheted for ages. I am 79 and have osteoarthritis in my fingers, and I used to use size 40 Coats Mercer crochet to make lace covers for my coffee tables. I was quite good at crochet. Now I find myself stumbling at crocheting a mere chain! I thought crochet would be easier than knitting, which hurts my hands now. I was once an excellent knitter.
@@LaraineAnne I've got arthritis too. My right hand really hurt when I first started but I've found that my pain has lessened a bit over a few weeks. If not, then I pop 2 Advil because I'm not stopping! ❤ Good for you and keep it up!
64 squares?! I get to like 2 and then I’m like “that’s it, I’ve done something” and never finish the other 62 or something squares 😅 you’ve go a lot of time and patience - I’m proud of u! ❤
I feel like this is the first real beginner's video I've ever seen! I felt like an idiot for not being able to do this. I deeply appreciate that you explain why you're doing what you're doing and show exactly which hole you are working in. Thank you so so so much!
Im 50 and randomly got interested in crochet and knitting. I struggled for years and have all the yarn just waiting to become something. I sorta gave up and just bought a knitting machine. The knitting machine is great but the desire to learn how to crochet never left. After years of trying I thought maybe if I can just learn a granny square. I watched this video over and over, I lost count. After starting and pulling everything apart time after time I finally got it! I’m so proud I wish I could attach a photo to this comment. I looked for the FB page but it wasn’t there then I noticed this video is from 2017. Anyway this is the start of something great for me 😊 and you’re a great teacher! Thank you!!
Hi I’m 51 and I suddenly had the same desire. And I was so pleased with myself. Good job! I don’t think this is easy for everyone. It took lots of tries for me but felt like an accomplishment. :)
This video deserves 1000000 stars. This helped me so much. I made my first square and I'm proud of it. Thank you. I just wished it showed us the whole square being made. Lol
Raise the flag and phone the neighbors! A beginners tutorial that actually behaved as if it were for...well, beginners. I found this video to be truly instructive (thanks for slowing things down!) and helpful on so many levels, but especially with regard to the geography of the square, and the way that geography changes as you add more rounds. Seems a simple enough concept, but nowhere in the dozen or so other videos I've watched was the pattern broken down to "dc 3, chain 2, dc 3". Six dcs is not the same as 3dc, chain 2, dc 3. NOW, after your vid, I can recognize the patterns of the stitches, and where the real holes are. After about 13 attempts this week, i was finally able to successfully crochet a granny square. Thank you!
Absolutely the best tutorial ever. Years ago I learnt to do this but totally forgot until now. I’m busy knitting kitten blankets so something different is most welcome! Thank you again!
I am glad you told the beginners to turn their work on the Granny Square pattern because it will keep the pattern/square in a nice square shape. If a person does not turn their work the square gets a slant or sort of a spiral wonky shape. You have made a helpful tutorial 🧶
Thank you for your tutorial. I totally forgot about this stitch. This was how I was taught up crotchet over 40 years ago. I used to make blankets and scarves with this stitch years ago. This was a great walk down memory lane. Thank you
Thank you thank you! I'm 11 and I knit and my mom bought me wool. Little does she know that I'm secretly crocheting a blanket for a christmas gift for her! I'm so excited! It Iooks so great so far!
I’ve been crocheting ALL summer and never made ANYTHING successfully. My sister started at the same time as me and i admit, MUCH better than me. But yesterday i actually made my first creation! A granny square from YOUR tutorial ❤❤ so i just want to say thank you so much! Also i made another one! I really wanna make a quilt out of them! ❤❤❤
Yess girlll that’s what I’m doing but it’s gonna be a baby blanket and my moms gonna put it in a box at her work for the things made for the dead babies
Hello I have been cursing since I was 10 that's 53 years. And I have learned a lot from this it helps to read watch things cuz you might do things wrong over the years and this was helpful thank you very much God blessings to you all🎉
Omg i was so overwhelmed with granny squares after reading some tutorials and watching a few but THIS made it seem wayyyy easier! Cant wait to try it out later!!!
Finally! I've crocheted for A couple years now and never tried to do granny squares until now. I've tried several other videos and was almost ready to quit! I'm so thank you for your video!
I’ve watched so many granny square videos and this is the only one that has truly helped. Granted I’ve watched this video about 10 million times but I can finally granny square 🎉🎉🎉
This was an excellent video. It helps so much to see a close of your hands working the stitches . I'm just a beginner 79 years old. Wish my mom would have done crochet and knitting so I could have learned it growing up. I know how to do a lot of the basic stitches , so now I'm practicing day with the granny square.
I want to thank you!!!! I'm dyslexic, and I can't do patterns, I had to teach myself how to crochet trial and error. I have wanted to learn the granny stitch so badly. I started to crochet in 2009, I quit smoking in 2011 by crocheting. I'm a nervous person at times crocheting helps me relax and making blanket for others helps. Your video is PERFECT for anyone!!!!
Thank you for your patience in teaching me how to crochet. I watched you and learned how to crochet for my birthday last month. Your instructions were the best that I have seen on UA-cam, and trust me I viewed a LOT. Thanks again.
Because of Charlotte , I have been able to make for successful blankets and now I'm on my 5th and 6th! It's a lot of fun now after a long struggle with figuring it out.😊😊
Absolute beginner thanking you - After a week of trying to learn, yours was the only one that really helped me to succeed - wow a real granny square here !!!!!
I'm not even a beginner, I've been doing crochet for decades - but I've always struggled with granny squares. This is what finally went slow enough for it to really click for me - thank you so much!!
Thank you for sharing every detail of your crocheted Granny Square. This is exactly what the absolute beginner that I am need. I hope you can continue sharing every detail of your tutorials for absolute beginners.
One of the best and easiest videos to explain the technique of making granny squares ,something I was not able to grasp earlier .Thanks for the wonderful video .
You are phenomenal! I am a beginner, new to the art of crochet. I've learned so much from this tutorial than anyone. Many thanks for clear instructions.
I've been struggling with Granny Squares, and I'm not new to Crocheting. But your video is the absolute best! THANK YOU! I love how you continually repeat the steps and remind us of the exact stitches for each corner and center. For me, remembering the exact stitches is difficult. But you provide such a wonderful tutorial because you approach it from the mindset of people who are new to this or struggle with it. THANK YOU AGAIN!
Best tutorial ever! Thank you for this slowed down version. I’ve been messing up squares for a while trying to learn. This is first time I’ve been able to complete one.
I LOVED THIS VIDEO. THANK YOU! I have a lot of trouble staying focused when people talk about more than just the essentials in tutorials. You provided just the right amount of context without going on too long while you were explaining. I watched multiple tutorials and this one was the one that really helped me see and understand the pattern.
This beginners instruction is GREAT! I’ve watched it many times and have finally made my first granny square. Thank you for helping us who are truly beginners ❤
I love this tutorial!!! ......it is so easy to follow and understand. I am Autistic so the slowed down version is great as my processing speed is a bit slower. I can now make lovely blankets thanks to you xxxx
Hi I just would like to thank u. I've seen many video's on beginner's crocheting and found that yours is the best ever. I haven't crocheted in 28 yrs. I am very sick with renal disease and have dialysis 3 days and needed something to pass the time and i found u. Thank u for giving me the chance to do this again
Thankyou from the UK on lockdown. I've watched loads of tutorials and failed ... with yours I've actually crocheted a granny square! Fisrt one i could keep up with. Well done.
Ive watched so many videos, I tried one yesterday, spent 3 hours, and it was all not a square but an oval. Thank you @ The Nervous Knitter......Your video worked, took me +- 30 minutes to do mine. BEST video by far. Thank you
I have tried to do this for YEARS and have given up every time in frustration! I've always been more natural as a knitter but I just finished my first granny square thanks to this tutorial and am excited to finally make the granny square blanket of my dreams! (Me, dramatic? Never. :P)
Oh wow, this is the first video where i actually could understand it enough to make a square! I've been trying for hours and failing and now finally!!!! Thankyou 🥰
@donnaantignano3031 yay! 🥳 Though the squares I've made so far are slightly different sizes even though they've got the same amount of rows etc 😂 and the crocheting just looks wonky, but it's all part of the process! All the best!
This is the best tutorial I’ve found ! ! ! You are thorough, simple in your explanation and even slow enough that I could crochet with you without having to pause the video multiple times, like I have to with other teachers. Thank you for a great tutorial experience!
BRAVO You did a fantastic job in teaching how to crochet. I needed to be reminded of the counts and your video was PERFECT. I had forgotten what my Mom had taught me. Thank you thank you so very much. Stay safe and healthy, God Bless
I literally watched an hour long video on granny squares and was beyond confused. Watched your 22 min video and I’m moving right along! Even changed colors with no problem! Thank you so much! This was absolutely amazingly helpful!!!
Thank you so much. I haven't made a granny square in years. This was so helpful. What I love is I can stop, rewind, and play again. I appreciate you doing this video.
After not doing it for 8 years I decided to pick up crocheting during lockdown- thank you so much for this video! So easy to follow and clear to see. Just what I needed!
Thank you Charlotte! I made my first granny square blanket for my son just by watching you video and following your instruction. I'm on a roll now. On to the next blanket.
Finally a beginners video that is truly for beginners! I have tried to do the granny square with several other videos and it always ended up looking nothing like a square. This video was perfect. Every step was explained so that it actually made sense. It was great to see it coming together and taking shape! Thank you so much!
Been trying and failing for years to crochet and just couldn’t for the life of me figure it out and gave up but recently decided I wanted to try again and came across your video. Now I can crochet so thank you. Also now finding it easy after struggling for a long time. At the start of the video I struggled a little mostly with holding my working yarn but now I’m ok. :)
I watched this over and over for three days and finally figured it out. I couldn't figure out when to connect. So I used my stitch marker and it was smooth sailing after. I'm making this for my second grandson. I'm so excited!!!!!
Thank you. I’m having my morning coffee ☕️ and learning as I watch you teach. This will make my Alberta Covid -19 Restricted days a lot easier. You are a blessing! ❤️
Every other granny square video I watched was confusing. But when I came across yours … Bingo! I got it! Thanks to you I was able to complete my granny square cardigan.
I have been crocheting for years I am 66 but you have just showed me how to do a perfect granny square never got it right before thank you so much you are a great teacher x
This is THE BEST and most easy to follow granny square video I’ve seen so far. It’s the first time I’ve ever made one! And I’ll be coming back for reference. Thank you!!
Both my great grandma and my grandma tried to teach me to crochet for years but I just couldn't follow them but your video is so easy! Thank you for making it possible to carry on a family tradition that I thought I had lost out on 💙💚❤
So much better than the other tutorials. New to me was beginning the work with the 3dc starting at each corner, the ch1 part and turning the entire work over to start the next round. Brilliant lady. Absolutely grand. 👍
This is the first tutorial where I made something resembling a square. I am going to get a firmer yarn to start with. Thank you! You have a way of explaining things that is slow, simple, and the way you filmed it is perfect for the perspective.
OMG THANK YOU!!!! I have gone over so many videos, books and it didn't click until your video. I have knitted and crocheted many things but just couldn't get this. Thank you so very much. Excellent.
FunallyI have learned to make a granny square from this video after watching lots of videos, but this is the best video with clear instructions. Thank you so much .❤
I was the same way Mary!!! Don’t know why but always steered clear of the granny squares!! (Maybe didn’t think I was “old enuf”?!) lol Happy crocheting
Omg, bless you!!! This is such a great beginners video, I wanna sob. i am so proud of my ever self made piece! It looks so great thanks to your tutorial!!!!
I’m really new to this, so I’ve watched this over n over. So whilst I’m still struggling I’m kinda getting it. The problem is definitely all me as the speed is fine. So I certainly appreciate you taking the time to make something like this.
I have watched multiple people do granny square videos but this is literally the first time I followed u and I did it on the first try…. THANK U THANK U THANK U ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊
This was the only, I repeat THE ONLY tutorial that taught me to crochet, and to be able to do it on my own. Thanks so much! Also, your voice is sooo similar to Mila Kunis, the entire experience of learning crochet from you is epic.
Awwwwww thank you sooo much for this tutorial....i cant believe i just made my first square! Your instructions are great and my wee square is the first of manyyyy as i begin blankets for my family....thank you again xx
Ive watched SOO many tutorials and they didnt work! But this one worked very well! 😁 Even tho it was a VERY fast tutorial it was still good! Thank youu❤
I've been in the beginner stage for years... only doing single stitch potholders, blankets, etc. The granny square always confused me a bit. I am so thankful for your video. I think I finally got it, girl! I appreciate the time you took to explain this, SO MUCH! Thank you and have a blessed day! 👍😁✝️🌻🙋♀️
Thank you for the slowed-down version. It has been many years since I crocheted. This is helping me greatly. When my stitches don't look like yours I just pull it out and try again. I often pause the video and try again. I am having fun. I want to make a blanket for my grandson using the Granny Square method. Again, Many Thanks!
Thank you SOOOOO much! I have always wondered how to do a granny square ... Your tutorial was brilliant! All I had to do was turn my phone upside down to follow as a left handed crochet! Absolutely brilliant!
Thank you for this slowed down version. Not only did I watch it several times, I used a larger hook “K”so my work (and the holes) would be better defined. Once I get the hang of it, I will use a smaller hook. This video was very helpful.
Thank you for your wonderfully concise directions for the granny square. I was lost until I found your site. I'm now a happy camper and putting squares on top of squares. That pile will become a blanket for one of my great granddaughters. Thank you again.
Thank you for the great video....I am just getting back into crocheting after a few years...and was following another video....My work wasn't quite right in the end....Just watched yours and this is exactly how my mom taught me waaay back ....It just all came back to me....thank you I am on a roll now...love
For the FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE, I understand how to do a slip stitch to get the yarn on my crochet hook. For 45 years I've been holding the hook between my knees, and making a knot around the crochet hook. THANK YOU!!!! hugs, Jeanie
Can't thank you enough. I've been crocheting for a few years now and was so embarrassed that I couldn't figure out granny squares. I can finally make them thanks to this tutorial! 💕
I went through the entire video and wrote the instructions down. This was easy to understand. I want to make a purse using squares. I think one more round will get the size I need. Thank you!
I just want you to know that I have been crocheting for over 20 years and I've NEVER been able to do a granny square. Watching this, I've FINALLY got it!!! Thank you so much for slowing it way down. Something finally clicked in my brain!
I can't believe I actually made the Granny Square thanks to you! 🤗 Thank you so much!!! Now I can try to make my daughter the blanket she's been wanting. 😀👍💖
This was incredibly helpful!!!!! I finally got it. Cancer treatment has caused me issues with learning things but this slow step by step did the trick. Thank you!!!!
Whoop whoop- I finally get it! Thank you so much, I can knit but been trying to figure out these squares for ages. I am left handed which makes it worse, but your video is brilliant.
Excellent tutorial I tied other tutorials but this is the best so far for absolute beginners thanks for your patience in showing how it’s done will definitely recommend you to others
Ahh thank you for the tutorial! Nice clear and slow instructions. I’m not exactly a newbie at crocheting, but this is my first attempt at a blanket. Can’t wait to make my niece or nephew a baby blanket!
Very good. I got it 100% this time. That's exactly what I needed to know. This is the first after searching MANY of them that actually went slow enough to get it. Every other video I saw seems like it was made for someone trying to show viewers how fast they can crochet.
This was the first video that finally allowed me to make a whole granny square. The pace and explanations finally allowed it to click for me!
Same here!
Lilthings is also really good in explaining
I agree with you
❤I have the same experience almost wanted to vibe up but this video is so good thanx!!! I will be able to make my project ❤❤
FINALLY.....a tutorial that I can actually follow and understand! Thank you so much for this! I have successfully made my very first granny square!

I've got arthritis too. My right hand really hurt when I first started but I've found that my pain has lessened a bit over a few weeks. If not, then I pop 2 Advil because I'm not stopping! ❤ Good for you and keep it up!
Thanks so much for going slow! I too paused often but I finally got it!!! Made 64 squares and have a beautiful blanket 💕
Well done …. I’m a beginner too, with my 10 year old daughter, wish me luck . 😅
64 squares?! I get to like 2 and then I’m like “that’s it, I’ve done something” and never finish the other 62 or something squares 😅 you’ve go a lot of time and patience - I’m proud of u! ❤

I’ve watched so many and stop half way thru then say right finish off and I’ll see you at the next corner!! Whattttttt corner
😮
I love the shows where they talk vs the ones where they just play music and don't say a word. I've been given rude comments for not understanding!!

Yes!♥️ This is so needed and encouraging to me and others! Thank you!♥️😃

Absolutely the best tutorial ever. Years ago I learnt to do this but totally forgot until now. I’m busy knitting kitten blankets so something different is most welcome! Thank you again!
I am new at crochet it's because of shutdown. I am 75 and so bored so I thought I'd give it a try your video is brilliant.
She is using way to small hook and skinny yarn to do a demo for beginners. Try watching demo by >hooked by Robin< for absolute begginers
I am glad you told the beginners to turn their work on the Granny Square pattern because it will keep the pattern/square in a nice square shape. If a person does not turn their work the square gets a slant or sort of a spiral wonky shape. You have made a helpful tutorial 🧶
I have never heard of turning your work when making a granny square, but that would make both sides the same instead of a front & back.
I was just about to ask why we're supposed to turn our work when we start the next round . Thank you for answering my question!
First tutorial that really fully explained out just about every stitch! Because of this I can finally make a granny square!! Thank you!

After 50+ years I can finally do a Granny Square. Thank you!

I literally watched an hour long video on granny squares and was beyond confused. Watched your 22 min video and I’m moving right along! Even changed colors with no problem! Thank you so much! This was absolutely amazingly helpful!!!
Thank you so much. I haven't made a granny square in years. This was so helpful. What I love is I can stop, rewind, and play again. I appreciate you doing this video.
After not doing it for 8 years I decided to pick up crocheting during lockdown- thank you so much for this video! So easy to follow and clear to see. Just what I needed!
Thank you Charlotte! I made my first granny square blanket for my son just by watching you video and following your instruction. I'm on a roll now. On to the next blanket.
Wow. I hope that I can get there.
Finally a beginners video that is truly for beginners! I have tried to do the granny square with several other videos and it always ended up looking nothing like a square. This video was perfect. Every step was explained so that it actually made sense. It was great to see it coming together and taking shape! Thank you so much!
This is the best tutorial I've found for granny squares! Thank you for slowing it down and for all the explanations!
Been trying and failing for years to crochet and just couldn’t for the life of me figure it out and gave up but recently decided I wanted to try again and came across your video. Now I can crochet so thank you. Also now finding it easy after struggling for a long time. At the start of the video I struggled a little mostly with holding my working yarn but now I’m ok. :)
I watched this over and over for three days and finally figured it out. I couldn't figure out when to connect. So I used my stitch marker and it was smooth sailing after. I'm making this for my second grandson. I'm so excited!!!!!
Thank you. I’m having my morning coffee ☕️ and learning as I watch you teach. This will make my Alberta Covid -19 Restricted days a lot easier. You are a blessing! ❤️
Every other granny square video I watched was confusing. But when I came across yours … Bingo! I got it! Thanks to you I was able to complete my granny square cardigan.
I have been crocheting for years I am 66 but you have just showed me how to do a perfect granny square never got it right before thank you so much you are a great teacher x
This is the only tutorial I was able to complete a granny square successfully. Thank you so much!
I'm a beginner at crocheting. This video taught me how to make Granny Squares. Thank you.
This is THE BEST and most easy to follow granny square video I’ve seen so far. It’s the first time I’ve ever made one! And I’ll be coming back for reference. Thank you!!
Both my great grandma and my grandma tried to teach me to crochet for years but I just couldn't follow them but your video is so easy! Thank you for making it possible to carry on a family tradition that I thought I had lost out on 💙💚❤
I successfully made my first granny square because of this video, thank you! Many others were going to quick or making it unnecessarily complicated.
So much better than the other tutorials. New to me was beginning the work with the 3dc starting at each corner, the ch1 part and turning the entire work over to start the next round. Brilliant lady. Absolutely grand. 👍
This is the first tutorial where I made something resembling a square. I am going to get a firmer yarn to start with. Thank you! You have a way of explaining things that is slow, simple, and the way you filmed it is perfect for the perspective.
started out as a granny square... ended up as a baby blanket, I enjoyed doing this so much that I just kept going
OMG THANK YOU!!!! I have gone over so many videos, books and it didn't click until your video. I have knitted and crocheted many things but just couldn't get this. Thank you so very much. Excellent.
OMG I think I can finally do a granny square. Thank you so much for taking your time with us newbies.
FunallyI have learned to make a granny square from this video after watching lots of videos, but this is the best video with clear instructions. Thank you so much .❤
I’ve been crocheting for years, your video is the only 1 that taught me how to make a Grandma Stitch, thank you thank you thank you 🧶
I was the same way Mary!!! Don’t know why but always steered clear of the granny squares!! (Maybe didn’t think I was “old enuf”?!) lol
Happy crocheting
Omg, bless you!!! This is such a great beginners video, I wanna sob. i am so proud of my ever self made piece! It looks so great thanks to your tutorial!!!!
I’m really new to this, so I’ve watched this over n over. So whilst I’m still struggling I’m kinda getting it. The problem is definitely all me as the speed is fine. So I certainly appreciate you taking the time to make something like this.
I have watched multiple people do granny square videos but this is literally the first time I followed u and I did it on the first try…. THANK U THANK U THANK U ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊
This was the only, I repeat THE ONLY tutorial that taught me to crochet, and to be able to do it on my own. Thanks so much!
Also, your voice is sooo similar to Mila Kunis, the entire experience of learning crochet from you is epic.
I understood very well
Omg!! I screwed it literally a thousand times😭😭...n at last I was able to crochet it!! Thanku soo much❤
Awwwwww thank you sooo much for this tutorial....i cant believe i just made my first square! Your instructions are great and my wee square is the first of manyyyy as i begin blankets for my family....thank you again xx
Ive watched SOO many tutorials and they didnt work! But this one worked very well! 😁 Even tho it was a VERY fast tutorial it was still good! Thank youu❤
I've been in the beginner stage for years... only doing single stitch potholders, blankets, etc. The granny square always confused me a bit. I am so thankful for your video. I think I finally got it, girl! I appreciate the time you took to explain this, SO MUCH! Thank you and have a blessed day! 👍😁✝️🌻🙋♀️
You are so welcome… ❤️
Thank you for the slowed-down version. It has been many years since I crocheted. This is helping me greatly. When my stitches don't look like yours I just pull it out and try again. I often pause the video and try again. I am having fun. I want to make a blanket for my grandson using the Granny Square method. Again, Many Thanks!
Thank you SOOOOO much! I have always wondered how to do a granny square ... Your tutorial was brilliant! All I had to do was turn my phone upside down to follow as a left handed crochet! Absolutely brilliant!
Thank you for this slowed down version.
Not only did I watch it several times, I used a larger hook “K”so my work (and the holes) would be better defined. Once I get the hang of it, I will use a smaller hook.
This video was very helpful.
Thank you so much, I've spent ages trying to make a granny square and now I finally have !!
Thank you for your wonderfully concise directions for the granny square. I was lost until I found your site. I'm now a happy camper and putting squares on top of squares. That pile will become a blanket for one of my great granddaughters. Thank you again.
Thank you for the great video....I am just getting back into crocheting after a few years...and was following another video....My work wasn't quite right in the end....Just watched yours and this is exactly how my mom taught me waaay back ....It just all came back to me....thank you I am on a roll now...love
This video is the BEST. Thankyou very much. I appreciate how slow you went and showed all angles. I could follow along!
I watched several tutorials before I found yours! I was finally able to make one!! Thanks so much!
For the FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE, I understand how to do a slip stitch to get the yarn on my crochet hook. For 45 years I've been holding the hook between my knees, and making a knot around the crochet hook. THANK YOU!!!! hugs, Jeanie
Perfect tutorial🤙🏼
Made a king size bed cover of these squares.
Can't thank you enough. I've been crocheting for a few years now and was so embarrassed that I couldn't figure out granny squares. I can finally make them thanks to this tutorial! 💕
I went through the entire video and wrote the instructions down. This was easy to understand. I want to make a purse using squares. I think one more round will get the size I need. Thank you!
I just want you to know that I have been crocheting for over 20 years and I've NEVER been able to do a granny square. Watching this, I've FINALLY got it!!! Thank you so much for slowing it way down. Something finally clicked in my brain!
I can't believe I actually made the Granny Square thanks to you! 🤗 Thank you so much!!! Now I can try to make my daughter the blanket she's been wanting. 😀👍💖
This was incredibly helpful!!!!! I finally got it. Cancer treatment has caused me issues with learning things but this slow step by step did the trick. Thank you!!!!
Whoop whoop- I finally get it! Thank you so much, I can knit but been trying to figure out these squares for ages. I am left handed which makes it worse, but your video is brilliant.
Excellent tutorial I tied other tutorials but this is the best so far for absolute beginners thanks for your patience in showing how it’s done will definitely recommend you to others
Ahh thank you for the tutorial! Nice clear and slow instructions. I’m not exactly a newbie at crocheting, but this is my first attempt at a blanket. Can’t wait to make my niece or nephew a baby blanket!
Very good. I got it 100% this time. That's exactly what I needed to know. This is the first after searching MANY of them that actually went slow enough to get it. Every other video I saw seems like it was made for someone trying to show viewers how fast they can crochet.
