    I just made my first granny square! Full disclosure, granny looks like she stopped at the pub for a few quick drinks, BUT it is a square. And its overall resemblance to yours is enough that they would recognize each other as cousins, albeit distant cousins. 😅 Thanks, Robin. This was so clearly demonstrated that I can come back for a refresher and be on my granny way!

    Hi Robin I have been knitting and crocheting since I was a young girl, I'm now 64. For some reason I have always struggled to master the Granny Square even though I have knitted lace stitches no problem. I recently decided to master Granny squares as I have loads of beautiful wool which would be perfect for crochet blankets. I had to go on medication 4 years ago and lost all my creativity as a result. I've really struggled to get back knitting without much success. I thought crochet might be easier so I searched UTube which came up with a number of tutorials. I would really like to compliment you on your tutorial. The instructions were so clear and structured. I'm now very happily crocheting a big granny square blanket. You have made my day. Thank you 😊.

    My dear, sweet mama passed in October. She was my best friend and I miss her so much. I found an Afghan that she had made. It is in pretty good shape except for two squares. I was lucky enough to find some yarn at Wal-Mart this morning that matches. But, I don ‘t know how to crochet so I will need to learn. I do know how to knit so I know that I can do this. I am looking forward to this on a cold winter day in Illinois. Thank you so much for this video. You have given a grieving daughter a short break from the pain that I am feeling and a closer connection to my mom.

    Hi! I realize this video has been out for 3 years, but I just decided to learn how to crochet this month. After conquering my first project of slippers, I was obsessed with learning how to make a granny square in 3 colours (because I like to jump into the fire right away). Thank you for creating such an easy to follow tutorial. I just paused and rewatched when needed and you made it so easy. This is now in my favourites and I just have to make 5000 more of these things to make an afghan! (ok, maybe not 5000....).

      Hi Darci, that was lovely to read - thank you! 5000 did make me laugh though 😂, it can feel like that sometimes with granny squares but so worth it!x

    I’ve learned how to crochet from my grandma ( she’s been crocheting for around 15 years) but she’s never made a granny square. And I’ve been crocheting for 4 months and I’ve made like 5 of these. Thank you so much and this has helped me a lot! 💖💖

    I've always wanted to crochet a classic granny square! I have tried in the past, but was too inexperienced and easily intimidated by other tutorials. I've got a whole lot of crochet under my belt now, and this is the perfect video to give it another try! This time I was ready, and as always, your tutorials are perfect! Thank you so much, Robin!❤🎉

Your tutorial was so easy to follow and my square is passable 😅. Not as lovely as yours but for the first try I'm happy and now understand the basic structure. Thank you so much x

    Fantastic video!!! I've been learning/practicing crochet for only 10 days (I've had one 2 hour class) and was able to learn granny squares with you. I'm so excited!! I do recommend watching sections first, going back, and then attempting to follow a section at a time. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise! :) PS - I love seeing how many others are learning this in their 70's and 80's -- that's so cool!

    Hooked by Robin - I think you're fantastic and I'm sending you loads of hugs!
    I used to crochet like this at school - many, many moons ago - but one of my friends would always start me off, so I never learned the proper way to do it until I watched this video. I'm now well on the way to a baby blanket, after a few false starts as my beautiful granddaughter kept interrupting me haha, "Grandma, can I use this, please?" "Grandma, can you open this, please?" etc, etc!
    I absolutely LOVE your tutorials, you make it so easy for us and I thank you a hundredfold! xx

    Thank you for this tutorial! Your explanations are very clear and easy to follow. This was my first time making a granny square and my 2nd project ever (after a scarf from another one of your tutorials)!
    I especially appreciate the ways you give context for why you’re doing certain things, for example you explained that by using a slip stitch, you’re “slipping” or sneaking along the stitch so your tracks aren’t visible and you’re not adding “height”. You also explained how a corner is 3 single crochets… This was so helpful for me, a brand new beginner!
