Granny Square For Beginners Tutorial - ua-cam.com/video/O_5nIpXg8OM/v-deo.html
Hi Jayda aside from my original comment ⬇️ I have a couple questions.😁 Is there any harm in turning each round? I know it’ll work for this square but will it present any problems for future months? Also could I go ahead & put a SC border around it now for ease of sewing them together at the end? I’m going to be learning a lot about my tension this year. My 1st square is 7 inches with a 6mm hook. Loving it! Thanks in advance 🤗

My 11yo son, who I taught to crochet last year but has really improved in the past month, has decided to make this blanket with me this year. I’m so excited for him 😊
That's delightful!!
It's always good to learn something new.
Hi Lucille! I aagree!
It was so hard to sit through the ads before the video. I was just so excited to learn the theme. But it is my way of supporting you two so I was a big girl and stuck it out. 😍
The ad that is running now for me is nearly 20 minutes, and I feel the product being sold is a scam. I know creators have no control over the ads. I watch about 40 seconds. I hear 30 seconds is enough for the creator to receive ad revenue.
@@karenh2890 I've also been told 30s from multiple creators so that is also my go to. Luckily it was two 15s ads before the video played. I also try to let the after ads play through as I can just mute the tab and open the next.
I almost forgot about there being ads in videos I sure am glad I don’t get bothered with them
I’m with Scorpio Love! My husband pays for UA-cam premium, so I forget that the ads are so awful on here.
I accidentally clicked skip on the first one but let the second one play. If they're more than two minutes, I skip after about 35-40 seconds
Mr. InStitches outdid himself with that opening sequence.
🥰
I too learned how to crochet a granny square by watching your tutorial. I've since made 4 granny square blankets for each of my 4 grown children. They love them! Now it's time for one of my own and this one is just perfect! Thank you! Your creativity & joy are so inspiring!
Wonderful!
Love the Grandma’s magical cupboard idea!! Hands warmed up and ready to make some granny squares!
woohoo!!
Hands warmed up!!!!so cute!
@@angelacable7517 😊
I think we all need a bit of nostalgia right now. Perfect!❤
That cupboard is gorgeous! Now on to the video...
1 minute in & so excited! I love me some granny’s but I shy away from making different styles so this is perfect!
is she live??? does not say live
No, today is a video. I just knew l loved the idea for this blanket after only watching for 1 minute 😁
it gives me the idea of making a sweater from the squares
I was so excited for the calendar blanket. I thought to myself, "I hope this year will be adorable, fun, quick and a little but of challenge." Yeah for Jayda and Mr.! You are doing exactly that! So happy to get started! Thank you so much for all you guys do!
💗😃
I was hoping this year's blanket would involve granny squares!! I'm beyond excited to get started!!!
Oh Jayda this is soooo exciting 😂🎉thank you that you do this for us ❤
💗
These granny squares are going to make a beautiful blanket. 💜🙏🏻
Jayda your incredible and fun talent never ceases to amaze me. I sure hope that youtube honors you someday with the Platinum award! You really are the best teacher! You taught me how to crochet and I have purchased patterns but due to a few personal traumatic losses in 2023, I have many WIPs including my unfinished Folk art blanket so I feel I could hit the restart and get some self care benefit from starting over and this Granny square project with a slight twist would be great. Thank you for sharing your most valuable time and energy and being an ultimate friend to us all. So much appreciated always. Luv, Cynthia ❤🧶🌹🦋🙏🐑☀
Hi Cynthia! Never feel bad about not finishing a project, I unravel unfinished WIPs for use in other projects all the time. It can feel quite cathartic!
I saw a pic where someone got a peg board and dowels. They put the dowels in to the board at the right intervals. Then just slid the squares onto the dowels/pegs. They just stacked them up. It was really cool.
That's a great DIY blocking system 😊
Oh I have been waiting to see the calendar for 2024
Yeeeeeeeessss! Granny squares, my love! I’ve skipped the last couple of calendar blankets because they were all in one piece or they seemed like they’d take a long time, but granny squares? Those I can do fast! I knew I bought all those mini skeins for a reason! I’m so excited for this!
Welcome aboard!
Pls be sure to share photos I’m curious to see them in Mini skeins 😊
Your original Granny Square tutorial is the very first one I remember and followed and learned from. You made it so easy to follow that I have been following your channel ever since! Looking forward to this year's project as soon as I figure out what colors I want to use! 😀
Thank you Karen!
Pls share a pic of the colours you decide on😊
I'm noticing a trend with granny square CALs this year!! I love them and love how fast/simple they will be to only do a few each month to build a big blanket at the end. Thank you as always Jada!
That intro is the best ever🎉, gonna have to watch it a few more times as there is so much going on. Love the square as well and definitely going to have a go at this years blanket.😊
I learned to crochet by your first granny square tutorial. I had tried for YEARS to crochet. Tension in the chain was my problem. So I buckled down one day and did it over and over again until I had it right. Then that's where your granny square tutorial came in. So I thank you so much for that!!
Thank YOU for watching Autumn!
I love Granny squares and I can see this year being so much fun!
i love making granny squares. So happy to make them.
I'm so excited, Granny squares are my favorite!!! I've never been brave enough to branch out from the traditional granny til today though, so THANK YOU!
Grannies are my fave!! The first think my grandma taught me when I was in the 3rd grade and still my fave.. at 42 yrs old. Got 2 done already
Love this! My husband picked beige, green and gray as the alternating colors and I just adjusted by doing a standing dc instead of a ch3. Fantastic video as always! Thanks!
I did that as well! Chains as a starting point for a DC drive me batty because I notice they're different.
@Kiertiana haha exactly! I hate the way they look lol so I always do a standing stitch in place of chains lol
@@charlenegallagher831 This was my first time doing it. I'm still learning a lot of crochet tricks. I've only been doing it a little over a year. But I've watched A LOT of youtube videos in that year. I came across some comments under one about the standing dc instead of them a while back. I remembered it when I started this last night. I can still see a slight difference where they are, but it's much less noticeable overall than the chains.
@Kiertiana congrats on Learning! I started roughly 7 years ago! Still learning new tricks all the time :)
@@charlenegallagher831 It was more like a re-learning hah. I was taught by my grandmother when I was very little and I never stuck with it. I was taught again as an adult by my ex SIL- again didn't stick. This time, I sought it out as something to relax with. I'm proud of myself for sticking with it this time. ADHD is strong in this one. My therapist recommended finding something like it to make my brain get a break.
Jada, thank you for your creativity! Love this granny square! This is a new one for me. Can’t wait to get started!
10 years ago I came across your granny square tutorial. I had just about given up, but with you it just clicked. I will definitely be taking part with this blanket CAL and I'll be using stylecraft special dk for mine. Thank you for teaching me how to crochet a granny square 😊❤
Lovely!
I LOVE Grany Squares. This will be my first ever CAL and I'm so excited to get to be a part of it! Now to choose the colors, what fun! Thanks for the great tutorial.
Welcome to the Cupboard Judy! 😃
I’m a big fan of variegated wool, so I’m thinking alternating a variegated square with a plain colour from the variegated etc.depending on how many colours are in the variation, usually 4 (or more), one could make a 5x5 square blanket.
You must have an incredible imagination!!!! I had forgotten how easily you make something look so easy, and fun! Can’t wait to join you this year with this project! Thank you for the invitation!!!😉😉😉
Thank you 💗!
Oh my goodness
Im that excited..
Jada you taught me how to make a granny square i think it was 10 years ago
My very first project was a granny square blanket. My son still has it .
Thank you 💙
Im in love since with the Granny Square
💗!
I have always thought of the Chain-1 as a "traveling stitch." From time to time in Granny Squares, we have to travel across an area on the row below where we didn't put into stitches. So, that Chain-1 helps us to travel across that area and still keep the Granny Square flat. Just helped me think about what I am doing and why.
Hi Gayle, yes! I often describe it as a "bridge" or a "spacer", it definitely helps us travel from one little cluster of stitches to another 😊
I love this! I love granny squares and the way you teach them. Its how I learned 8 years ago!
🥰
Very interesting granny! I had never seen this one before. I just may have to make this blanket. Thank you Jayda! You never cease to amaze!
Thank you Laura! 💗
This sounds so fun Jayda! Love the nostalgic theme. 🧶💕
Yeee! (Insert little girl squeal) I am excited for this, I LOVE granny squares🥰!!! This is a calendar blanket in my comfort zone 😊💖 I have two student interns expecting this semester and I think making a LARGE square would make an adorable car seat/ stroller blanket! THANK YOU!
💗
Thanks Jayda for your new granny square/ I'm so excited about it,am doing a christening shawl in your new stacked shells granny square design@ have posted it to 2 crochet groups,you're a great tutor,thank u
Lovely Carmel! Welcome to the Cupboard 😃
Ughhhhhh the excitement is unreal 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄 Granny squares are my absolute favorite things to make Mrs. Jayda you taught me to crochet during a sad time in my life and it’s been amazing ever since, however I put crocheting down for 7 months from depression, but now I’m back! I still have the folk art blanket sky portion to finish 😅😅 But recently I found a pattern to make little crochet Nun dolls in full habit, and send them to different convents here in Georgia and all across the states (US). So exciting. My fiancé and I love watching your channel ❤️❤️ -Micah and Josh
Hi Micah and Josh! Welcome to the Cupboard 💗
Oh, this will be interesting indeed 😊❣️
Thank you Jayda and Mr InStitches❣️
❤❤❤❤❤ very exciting pattern. Thank you Jayda.
So I just watched the first of the 2024 calendar blanket videos and I’m so excited. I have been healing from tenosynovitis in my left wrist since early October and have only been able to crochet for about 1 week now. As I’m watching the 2024 video on my TV, I’m also watching the October 2023 calendar blanket video on my phone and crocheting along with that one so I can finish it before starting the 2024 blanket. So glad I can do this. I was so worried my hand and wrist would not heal enough to ever crochet again. Thank you Jayda for always brightening my day and being an encouragement. Things going to be fun! 🎉😊
Hi Robin! I'm so glad to hear you're healing 💗
Hi Jayda! I'm using some cotton I've had in my statsh for my squares. I've been wanting to make a cotton blanket and I think this is going to be perfect. As I watch the snow falling here, I think I'll start each square with white and add a color for the rest of the rounds. Thank you for another fun year filled with the popular Granny Square 💗💗
Beautiful!
I would love to see a pic of your squares. I like using cotton too. I’m in Australia and don’t really have a lot of really cold days😊
Very excited to get started on this. Thank you for sharing your amazing crochet ❤❤
You are so welcome! Welcome to the Cupboard 😃
I too thought you would venture into the world of mosaic, but it seems you are a granny square girl at heart. ❤️❤️ I may make a sweater/cardigan as well. You gave such great instructions on the Boo-Bee Cardi in the fall it really inspired me to move in that direction.
Hi! We like to change things up each year with our Calendar Blankets and we just did a year of graph work and colour changing, so it was time for something different 😊
FINALLY!! So exciting! My new yarn arrived yesterday. I'm soooo ready.😁
Thanks, Jayda. This looks like a lot of fun.
WoooooHooooooo I’m SUPER EXCITED 🕺🏼💃🏽 Jayda, YOU TAUGHT ME HOW TO CROCHET aka with your MAKE A GRANNY SQUARE video when no one else could….YOU ARE MY CROCHET HERO🙌🏼👏🏼🫶🏼 I just got the journal and having it printed at local office store. Can’t wait to get started… What yarn are you using? Loving the colors and texture.
Thank you so much for your support of our show! We always detail the weight/fiber content of our yarn in each video (especially when it matters). This year my squares are using Mary Maxim, Red Heart, Bernat and Lion Brand 😊
I like your needle! For the ends
It’s called a Wool Needle.. I bought 2 sets off Amazon recently 3 different sizes in each ok. About $8.99. Well worth it. So easy to hide tails now!!!
Hi Margaret, we have amazon links for a couple of sets here:
Wool Needles Knitters Pride - amzn.to/3qXM9Nh
Wool Needles Pony - amzn.to/3n3s0UF
I love this. I adore granny squares!
Such a different type of granny square. Very eye catching. Thank you jayda 🙏🏻beautiful 🤩 it’s a must!
HI Lynn! Thank you for watching 😊
Oh my gosh, I am so excited 🎉 I love ❤ granny squares and also enjoy the different options of colorway you showed us examples of. That way, we have something to keep us busy through the month while waiting on the next square.
I love that we will have 12 new granny square styles by year’s end. Cozy and nostalgic. Now…Digging out some ❤ 🧶 love from the stash 😂
Cozy and nostalgic, our buzzwords for 2024!
Thank you for taking the time to teaching 😊
Awesome! Love granny squares
This will make a lovely blanket. I have to decide on colors! So many ideas! But I want to do this! Thank you Jayda!
The hardest part for me is choosing the colors. I can't decide. I may go rainbow
Do it!! 😃
Love, love, love granny squares and the nostalgic nod! This is going to be a great stash-buster (especially since I hit a few sales and have added to that stash, haha!). I'm going to make several each month for a good-size blanket. Thank you, as always, for sharing your amazing talent!
Hi Kerri! This is definitely a great year to stash-bust 😊
Hooray! I’m SO excited for this year’s calendar blanket! I ‘ve always loved Granny squares!!
Enjoyed making the granny square, really simple n easy.Thank you for making me feel like making a whole lot of them.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching 😊
I have yet to complete a blanket, let alone a Granny Square blanket. But I LOVE granny squares. I bought 3 different colors from a heavily discounted Lion Brand sale and this might be the perfect project to use them for!!! Thank you! I hope I can stick to this year's. I tried a crochet-a-long last year and I didn't keep up with it, partially due to frustration because I was VERY new to crochet. I feel like I'm much more equipped this year! Wish me luck!
You can always just make one square a month, very easy to commit too, especially if you're still learning and finding your own speed 💗 That said, make as many as you want to! You can always use granny squares for other projects down the road 😊
@JaydaInStitches I'm much better this year! I had the first square almost done in a little over an hour last night. Your chosen size for the square and the fact that I love granny squares makes this one much more achievable! The girl who designed the one I tried to follow last year intended each square to be 24"x24", and to a brand new hooker with tension issues, still learning, messing up something that size was very discouraging. I learned grannies after that. I cracked open that new yarn for this last night. I can't wait to see what I come up with for this!!!
The first tutorial I watched of yours was for a standard granny square back in 2018, I never knew anything beyond the basics of crochet until I started watching your channel. I'm excited to get to learn 12 new granny square patterns this year.
Welcome to the project Sarah!
This is freaking me out, but in a good way!
Can't wait to get home so I can start this project!
Oh wow great I can use my stash. I'll love this one also
Such a cute square and idea for this year!!! Hope you have a good night!!!❤
I LOVE granny squares and am so excited about this blanket! This is my first year doing one of your blankets. I already purchased the first pattern and just need life to slow a bit to get started! Thank you for doing this!
Thank you so much for your support! 💗
Wow Jayda, I have been crocheting for over 55 years and never come across this version of granny square. Where have I been? Lol I must say this will be my go to square from now on. I followed along with your tutorial using variegated wool in yellow, peach, sage and a sea green. As I mentioned below I will make alternating squares in plain (hopefully) matching colours. I have quite the stash so finding a match shouldn’t be difficult. Thanks for this! Jane
Hi Jane! That's a great plan for your blanket! Stash -busting is my aim this year as well 😁 We aim to bring some new Granny Square designs to this year's blanket project (like this one, I designed that 😊) and some classic favourites too!
Pretty Granny!!!!!! Yay for a new calendar blanket!!!!
I second that!
Checking this out while I work on trying to finish the 2021 CAL.. have October, November and December left to do. Hoping to finish this month. Lost my crojo and ended up picking up a new craft. Finally getting back to crochet!
ha! i did exactly the same thing!😂😂😂
ALWAYS pick up a new craft! They always inspire ideas for existing crafts too! It's like extending your vocabulary 💗

Thank you Jayda. A lovely interesting granny sqaure. Definitely goung to do it. Lots of love from South Africa. ❤❤❤
Hi Cathy! Thank you for watching 😊
Very happy to see this. I love granny squares and this seems doable for me. Thankyou Jayda!
Lol, this is fabulous Jayda. I decided to go back to the beginning of your calendar blanket tutorials & watch them, while waiting very patiently for 2024 calendar blanket reveal. So I am well into making your temperature calendar blanket & your Fancy granny square blanket. I also have been playing around with my color scheme for this years blanket and to my delight a new granny square blanket will begin. Mad or what. 😂😮😊
Wow! Hey! I love having several projects on the go 😊
I loved It!! Thank You Jayda 😊 💓 ☺️
Can't wait to get home. Make that square!!!
Thank you jayda it's s beautiful stitch
Thank you for watching 😊
Love the intro! So excited to crochet along for the year!
This will be a food stash buster to
Good lol you now what I ment
I have always wanted to make a calendar blanket with you but never had the time. But now that I have found myself with severe back issues I need something to do to keep my mind off my pain so hopefully I will be able to make this one with you.
We hope it helps you feel better 💗
Yay! I’m so excited! I didn’t make the last 2 years. I’m making this one. I might just make my squares bigger! Thank you Jayda!
I love your granny square calendar blankets. I love granny squares. I was planning on doing a series on granny squares this year. This crochet along is right up my alley. Thank you!!
Fabulous! Welcome to the Cupboard 😃
This would be a good opportunity to teach a standing double crochet when starting a new color instead of slip stitch + 3 chains.
Hi! We've used that in a few previous patterns and if you're comfortable with that join, you can certainly use it. I'm not always a fan of that stitch because I find it can be loose, but that's just my experience 😊.
Very pretty Jayda. Love the theme!❤
I’m so excited!!
Looks fabulous, perfect for my next project. Thanks Jayda, 🧶🌟
Hi Auntie! Thank you for watching 😊
I have bought my yarn just for this year's calendar blanket. Glad that i did it too.
I love it! I can’t wait to get started!
This year I’m going to try and do the blanket. Wish me luck 🤞🏼
Welcome aboard Alice!
This is going to be fun! Thank you.
Love Granny Squares !! ❤
This is so beautiful thank you so much.
Thank you for watching 😊
I'm in ❤with this year's calendar 🗓 blanket!♡! I sure feel like 🎉party is on! Thanks Jayda!♡!
This is so exciting! We love magical! ❤️
I love your projects and always look forward to your theme and fun intro to the videos ❤
I've made 4 of these for a decent size blanket. I going to change colors for each month. My first ones are navy, light blue and white. Ready for the February square!
Lovely! see you soon!
I did not know this was going on until the April one came on my phone, I am 4 months behind😲
* giggle * They're small squares and it's a year long project, so no rush! Enjoy the project and welcome aboard!
Very exciting. 🎉. I have never made a granny square blanket. 😮
I love this Jayda, perfect!
Hi Wendy! Thank you 😃
Can’t decide if I’m going to try this or not. Very cute. Love the square
I have 2 brand new skeins of Lion Brand Mancala. I think I’ll use that this year since it’s easy to find to get more.
