What is a Granny Square?

A granny square is a traditional crochet motif that consists of a series of rounds. Each round is worked off of the previous round, and the rounds are usually worked in increasing order so that the square gets larger as you work. The most basic granny square will have a total of four rounds, but you can also find patterns for squares with six, eight, or even more rounds.

How to Make

There are many different ways to crochet a granny square, but this is a basic method that results in a timeless classic.

First, start by creating a slip knot and crocheting six chain stitches. Then, join the end of the chain to the first stitch with a slip stitch to form a ring.

Next, crochet three more chain stitches (this will count as your first double crochet stitch) and then double crochet twice into the ring. Crochet another three chain stitches and then double crochet three times into the ring. Continue doing this until you have completed four rounds.

To finish off your granny square, cut the yarn leaving a long tail. Pull the tail through the last loop on your hook and then weave in all of the loose ends.

Tips for Crocheting a Granny Square

There are a few things to keep in mind when crocheting a granny square. First, make sure all your stitches are tight. This will ensure that your square holds its shape.

Second, when changing colors, always carry the new color up the side of the square. This will create a neat edge. Finally, when you get to the end of a row, turn your work so that the next row is crocheted in the opposite direction. This will give your square a nice symmetry.

Variations of the Granny Square

There are a few variations of the granny square that you can try. One is the solid granny square, which is simply made with one color of yarn.

Another variation is the two-color granny square, which uses two colors of yarn to create a more interesting pattern. You can also try using different kinds of yarn to create different textures in your granny square.
