I am 84 years old and, thanks to this very clear tutorial, I have just managed to crochet my first granny square. Never too old to learn something new.
@@joanmurphy5418 it’s not hard once you get the hang of it. There’s a little book Teach Yourself How to Make Granny Squares that you can get from Michael’s that I used to learn. This video is very helpful though in explaining some of the key concepts.
Beutiful sentiment! Mine at 51! And I very much agree with your sentiment on the video. Good speed, clear and Much needed for me, repetitive labeling and describing work as she went.
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 Fiona! Granny looks like she stopped at the pub for a few drinks made me laugh! 😂 It is definitely down to practice, you should have seen some of my first crochet.🤦♀️
i am a 12 year old kid and ive been struggling to crochet since july (its december rn) and this is the first thing ive made that im actually proud of. u made it so easy to follow!
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 😊.
I’m 10, and this is my first ever granny square. I’ve been crocheting for about half a year now and didn’t know how to do a granny square. Thank you so much Robin!
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.
Robin, you are a hobby savior! I was about to deem crocheting impossible but with your easily comprehensive videos, i see it in a whole new light! You are gold!
I can't believe how easy you've made this for me to understand. I've had so many people teach me how to crochet the granny square and finally you did it. Thank you so much!
I’m a beginner and have watched quite a few granny square tutorials. Yours are the most helpful and easiest to see what’s going on. Thank you!!! I’ve actually made my first three squares!!!
Hello there, Robyn. I just wanted to say thank you for your delightful tutorials. I am an avid knitter,and all my life I have wanted to crochet.I am now79 and disabled but,I have completed one of your scarves ,and I am so proud. I am now going to attempt to cover the front of a cushion with a giant granny square. Wish me luck. Your voice is very soothing and easy to follow , and your hook slides like silk through the yarn. God bless Robyn, and please keep tutoring us.
Hi Patricia, you’re so welcome - I am so glad you like my videos. Also amazing that you can knit, I’ve tried and can’t do it.😅 I will stick to crochet! I have new videos fortnightly at the moment on RUclips.x
it's 3:30 am but I just finished making one!!!! I'm gonna give it to my mom as a coaster for valentine's day in the morning. Thank you for this tutorial, I feel so proud and I can't wait to make a better one tomorrow!
@@irad6512 YESSSS I'm proud of us!!! Who knew it would be so fulfilling to make a little square? After making a few granny squares, I impulsively kept making one of them bigger and bigger and now it's becoming a blanket!
I’ve watched this tutorial about 10 + times. I’ve watched it while eating , while doing other projects , taking bubble baths , pretty much anything you could imagine . I’ve tried to do this so many times but every time I get twisted on the corners. I’ve finally achieved a perfect granny square and I couldn’t be happier. Your tutorials taught me how to crochet and are teaching me so many new skills. Thank you so much Mrs. Robin!
I want to thank you for offering this video. I have been trying to make a Granny Square now for a week, “ working on them 2-5 times a day. I came across your video and within a few hours I finally made a Granny Square. With being payed up, I needed something to do. Many thanks to you Robin, Norene Lorain, Ohio USA
OMG Where have you been all my crafty life,I'm 50 plus years old and your tutorials are fabulous, sounds daft but I could of cried as had a go and made a granny square tbe first time in my life thankyou, thankyou, thankyou x Have subscribed, I'm so happy with myself at my achievement through your help
Thank you so much!!! I used this tutorial to create granny squares with red heart granny square all in one yarn and omg you explained it so smoothly. Thank you again!
One of THE best tutorials I've ever seen. I've been trying to learn crochet and get discouraged when I can't pick up something/read a pattern. This helps give me a boost of confidence cause my granny square looks great after this tutorial!!!
The first couple of times I tried this I couldn’t get past the first row, but after breaking and doing something else (working on crochet hearts) I came back and it made sense! Super excited to have made my first granny square-the possibilities are endless! Thanks for the clear instructions, I am really enjoying learning from you.
I'm new to crocheting and your tutorial was my 1st successful granny square. Thank you so much for being such a splendid teacher and sharing your gift with us all.
I just love how you go slow and take your time explaining every part of it all! Thank you so very much for that it's really hard to find other crocheters that are willing to take or make it slower for people like me, I have a learning disability so it takes me just a little longer to get a better understanding of some things then what others do. And as for reading the patterns nope can't do it. Thank you so VERY much!
I've been wanting to learn to crochet for months, and have been struggling to find an easy and comprehensive tutorial to follow. I have found it!!!!! Thank-you, my first ever crochet granny square looks amazing!
My friend learnt from you and told me to watch this after weeks of me not being able to do it, and I've just done my first granny square after watching this! Thank you so much. I wanted to make a blanket for my Nan who isn't very well, she will be pleased 🥰
Just wanted to say a big thank you for your video. I have just learnt how to crochet at 76. The video was very easy to follow and I am so chuffed to have finally mastered it. A large blanket is in the making. Thank you so much. x
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!❤🎉
Also this video shows how to crochet the whole granny square, (one colour) without having to stop, cut & re-join the wool. Excellent for crocheting multicoloured balls of wool! An EXCELLENT VIDEO! Thank you! 🐔🦜🌻
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....).
i’ve been on/off crocheting since i was around 10 and i have never been able to make a granny square no matter how many videos i’ve seen because they use the magic loop; this is the only tutorial that’s worked for me! i’ve crocheted 5 granny squares today with 2 different hook sizes and i personally think sizing down a hook is better because i was able to get into the holes better and it looks neater to me, but both sizes had awesome results, thank u for this tutorial!!❤
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! I must have watched a dozen 'beginner granny square' tutorials and this is the only one that worked for me. Just completed my first proper square! So chuffed. x 💕😀
Big thanks Robin, I'm 60yo and always wanted to learn how to crochet a granny square. I got it now but just got to work on the tension. Thanks from Gold Coast, Australia x
after seeing and reading how to make a granny square, I think I can follow this video and write this pattern in my own words. I think I can finally do this. Thank You
I tried to first make a granny square about 3 years ago and gave up after countless tutorials. Thank you so much for helping me. Feeling much more positive now!!!!
this video is absolutely wonderful.!!!!!.if only you knew how many times I've tried to learn to do this and failed.im currently learning to knit..crochet for some reason I find more difficult.today I ATC achieved a square.thankyou very much indeed.❤I'm one happy lady
I used to be overwhelmed with tutorials for this pattern leaving me sad and unmotivated 😭 but I was so pleased I bumped into ur video today 🤍🤍🤍🤍 thank you!
Thank you for your tutorial which is so helpful. I have been knitting for years but never got the hang of crocheting until now. You are a wonderful teacher 🤗
Thank you! This was the one. After watching several granny square videos and many many attempts, I found this video. Everything clicked into place, it was so easy to follow, and I finally understood the overall construction. Now all I have to do is practice.
Your tutorial worked the best for me and really helped me to understand how to make a granny square. Thank you for going slow and showing step by step all the way through. That is so helpful.
I'm 14 and I've been crocheting since 8 and I've just made my first ever granny square. Not even my nan could teach me how to start one so you're basically a miracle worker ❤
THANK YOU! you just learnd me how to make my very first granny square! i'm 12 years old and this video was super easy to follow. i also gotta say that you're voice is very calming🙈 but btw, thank you for helping with my first granny square ❤️
So easy to follow. I am changing colours and am making a giant granny square. Thank You for excellent easy to follow instructions for someone never having crochet before.
I would like to thank you for that tutorial. Im over 50 and new to crochet. I have tried the Granny square many times and never managed it. You have taught me how to do it. Many thanks Rachel x
Just achieved my first granny square. You are a miracle worker cannot say how many times through the years I’ve attempted crochet. You have taught me, amazing lady. I hold my yarn very cac handedly as if I’m knitting. But it worked. 🎉🎉🎉
I tried so many other tutorials for beginning crochet. I decided I would try one last time, and give up if it didn't work. IT WORKED!. Thank you so much Robin. I will be sure to check out your other tutorials with each new skein of yarn I purchase. Now I can get busy making gifts for Christmas this year. Thank you, thank you!! Eric, Salt Lake City, UT, USA
Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial! I have knitted amigurumi stuff but never an actual useful blanket and making these squares is so addictive! Much love!
I haven't crocheted in many years, and I forgot how to start a square..I am making a blanket for my G-baby!! I'm sooooo excited..Thanks for the tutorial!!
Thanks for the tutorial! 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! 💖💖
This was the best tutorial I had watched after dozens. Its been a life goal of mine to make a granny square quilt and I finally made 1 square so I am on my way!
Omg! You're awesome and I appreciate u so much! ❤ I'm a brand new crocheter. And left handed. Your tutorial was extremely helpful to me, and so simple to follow. Even with me being left handed! I wish we could post pics here of our granny squares. Thanks to you, I just successfully completed my 1st granny square, and absolutely love how it turned out🎉🤩🥰 thankyou SO much!!
Thank you Ashlee, I am glad it helped!😀 If you are left handed, you can convert ANY video on RUclips yourself! Simply go to www.mirrorthevideo.com/ and follow the instructions to mirror flip any video to convert to left handed.

@@HookedbyRobinThank you for replying it’s my dream to have a RUclipsr to reply to me I love your channel and will definitely be interested in doing some more from you
My first attempt wasn’t fabulous and I set it down for a week. I just made my second attempt,watching you once again and it worked flawlessly and all made sense. Thank you!
You were so clear about each step and were there right to the end so patiently repeating everything. Thanks very much to you for all the effort you put into this video for beginners like me. Thanks to you I just completed your granny square and like the way you change colour. Happy spring!
Dearest Robin! I want to thank you so much for your help with this tutorial! From the bottom of my heart! I wish I could show you the progress as I am now in love with my throw 🥰🥰
I love this way you have done the granny square! Its so much easier then some of the other tutorials I've seen on RUclips. Please keep up the awesome work!
It is 12:13am, and I just finished my very first granny square ever, after needing to pull it out and restart this video about 4 times. We got there in the end, and I appreciate the fact that no matter how many times we repeated the same step, you showed/explained the steps. Very clear, very concise, 10/10, I love my new coaster.
Just started knitting a week ago, and now I’ve started to crochet! After learning a whole bunch in just a few days I thought I should try the granny square! But after watching countless videos, trying it, and then re trying it. It just didn’t make sense! But I stumbled across your video and……..TA DA, I did it! Thank you for this effortless tutorial! I’m very pleased with myself!!!
This is an amazing tutorial! I just started crocheting 3 days ago, and was so scared to attempt granny squares! Robin made it so easy with this tutorial :)
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!
On my 3rd attempt I decided to watch your video and felt so confident with your instruction that I could pause finish a section and then continue. Now I have actually finished a Granny Square!! Thank you!!
Robin - you really are the best instructor. So many previous granny square videos assume that a beginner somehow knows the VERY things we are there to learn. You do not assume and therefore make it all work! I appreciate you so much and as a lockdown learner feel that I now have a great channel and an even better teacher. Thanks so much 🙂
That was really great instruction! I’ve watched many of other good ones but yours really showed the easiest way. I’m so excited to start my crochet hobby 😊
Just learning how to crochet thank you for all your help with this video. I have made many mistakes but I have persevered and eventually made a passable granny square for first time ever . Thank you I am 78 years old and always admired crochet patterns.
I'm sure if you teach quantum physics, many of us including me will learn it in first go. Why did I found you so late?!!! Thank you so much for this great tutorial!!!
Sat watching this after making a moss stitch scarf, which you explained exceptionally well. Thank you for sharing. Lovely to see all ages, giving this a go. Yay for us.
Wonderful class and great video! Thank you so much for your instructive class, I thought I would never be able to learn how to do this granny square, you made it easy. Thumbs Up to you!
The best granny square pattern ive found yet so easy much More easier than other granny square patterns, very easy to understand and to accomplish without even thinking
I've been trying to learn how to crochet on and off for the last 25 years or so without success. I found this video this week and I have finally managed a granny square. Thank you, I can't actually believe it!
You are the most patient person. Your tutorial leaves no questions and is just wonderful. Your voice is mesmerizing. I’m having my husband watch, because he thinks there’s no way he’d be able to learn. With your tutorial, anyone can. Thank you so much!!
I just started crocheting this summer, and i watched this one time. I've already made nine squares with four rounds. This tutorial is super helpful! Thank you so much! ❤
Wondering how to weave in those pesky ends? Watch this video next! ruclips.net/video/MbyVpaT1JxM/видео.html 😀🧶
thanks for your help🍄
Thank you so much loved your tutorials
I did the log cabin square and had a lot of fun
You are absolutely amazing!! Your tutorials are easy to follow and overall really incredible!! ❤❤❤
Excellent explanation ❤
I am 84 years old and, thanks to this very clear tutorial, I have just managed to crochet my first granny square. Never too old to learn something new.
I am 70 years old and just started to learn to crochet but I'm finding it hard to do corners and the granny stitch .
@@joanmurphy5418 it’s not hard once you get the hang of it. There’s a little book Teach Yourself How to Make Granny Squares that you can get from Michael’s that I used to learn. This video is very helpful though in explaining some of the key concepts.
Fabulous Jane 👍❤️xx
Beutiful sentiment! Mine at 51! And I very much agree with your sentiment on the video. Good speed, clear and Much needed for me, repetitive labeling and describing work as she went.
this was too sweet and wholesome
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 Fiona! Granny looks like she stopped at the pub for a few drinks made me laugh! 😂 It is definitely down to practice, you should have seen some of my first crochet.🤦♀️
This is HILARIOUS!!! I think our granny squares might be twins! 🤪
This comment may just be the best one ever on crocheting. Thank you for the laugh! Too funny! 🤣🤪
😅
I haven’t done a granny square in years so I watched the tutorial and now am so excited to make a granny square afghan for my daughter !!
i am a 12 year old kid and ive been struggling to crochet since july (its december rn) and this is the first thing ive made that im actually proud of. u made it so easy to follow!
That is amazing, definitely be proud of yourself! 😃🧶

aw what a lovely comment to read! Thank you so much! ❤
Thank you for your tutorial which is so helpful. I have been knitting for years but never got the hang of crocheting until now. You are a wonderful teacher 🤗
Thank you so much Esme!😃🤗
Thank you! This was the one. After watching several granny square videos and many many attempts, I found this video. Everything clicked into place, it was so easy to follow, and I finally understood the overall construction. Now all I have to do is practice.
I reviewed several sites and started several squares. All of them hopeless! Your instructions were so clear and really helped me! Thanks...I'm hooked!
Your tutorial worked the best for me and really helped me to understand how to make a granny square. Thank you for going slow and showing step by step all the way through. That is so helpful.
I'm 14 and I've been crocheting since 8 and I've just made my first ever granny square. Not even my nan could teach me how to start one so you're basically a miracle worker ❤
Awh, thank you so much. I’m glad it helped!😃
THANK YOU! you just learnd me how to make my very first granny square! i'm 12 years old and this video was super easy to follow. i also gotta say that you're voice is very calming🙈 but btw, thank you for helping with my first granny square ❤️
Thank you so much Nina and so happy you managed your first granny square - onwards and upwards from here with crochet.😃🧶
@haha no cool!🧶🧶
So easy to follow. I am changing colours and am making a giant granny square. Thank You for excellent easy to follow instructions for someone never having crochet before.
Thank you so much Anita and that sounds lovely! Enjoy your crochet.😃🧶
You are an amazing teacher and I just made my first two squares ever!!!!
Well done Laura, you will be well on your way now! 😃🧶
I would like to thank you for that tutorial. Im over 50 and new to crochet. I have tried the Granny square many times and never managed it. You have taught me how to do it.
Many thanks

Wonderful!
Brilliant. At 62 I've just made my first granny square!
Just achieved my first granny square. You are a miracle worker cannot say how many times through the years I’ve attempted crochet. You have taught me, amazing lady. I hold my yarn very cac handedly as if I’m knitting. But it worked. 🎉🎉🎉
Hi Carol, Awh I love this and I’m so glad my video helped you.😃 This may help you too: ruclips.net/video/jg2p9gM7U5A/видео.html
OMW I have just done my first perfect granny square. Thank you so much 😁👍👍👍
i have seen a lot of crochet granny square tutorials but this is the only one that worked out good for me you are such a good teacher😊🙂
Thank you so much, I am glad it helps!😀
I tried so many other tutorials for beginning crochet. I decided I would try one last time, and give up if it didn't work. IT WORKED!. Thank you so much Robin. I will be sure to check out your other tutorials with each new skein of yarn I purchase. Now I can get busy making gifts for Christmas this year. Thank you, thank you!! Eric, Salt Lake City, UT, USA
Goodness me this is the only tutorial which had taught me to actually do my first granny square I’m definitely awarding you a gold star 🎉🎉
Thank you for the gold star! I’m glad it helped.😃🥳
Made my first granny square with this, it’s a fantastic and really easy to follow tutorial ❤
Well done Louise! Are you new to crochet?😀🧶
Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial! I have knitted amigurumi stuff but never an actual useful blanket and making these squares is so addictive!
Much love!
You’re very welcome David!😃
I haven't crocheted in many years, and I forgot how to start a square..I am making a blanket for my G-baby!! I'm sooooo excited..Thanks for the tutorial!!
You're the first person that explained how to start a granny square and i was able to follow along easily without messing up!!
Thanks for the tutorial!
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! 💖💖
Thank You for the very clear tutorial..best i have ever seen.
Thank you so much Megan!🥰
This was the best tutorial I had watched after dozens. Its been a life goal of mine to make a granny square quilt and I finally made 1 square so I am on my way!
Yay!! :D
Best tutorial on how to crochet a granny square. 🙏🏽
Omg! You're awesome and I appreciate u so much! ❤ I'm a brand new crocheter. And left handed. Your tutorial was extremely helpful to me, and so simple to follow. Even with me being left handed! I wish we could post pics here of our granny squares. Thanks to you, I just successfully completed my 1st granny square, and absolutely love how it turned out🎉🤩🥰 thankyou SO much!!
Thank you Ashlee, I am glad it helped!😀 If you are left handed, you can convert ANY video on RUclips yourself! Simply go to www.mirrorthevideo.com/ and follow the instructions to mirror flip any video to convert to left handed. As for sharing a photograph, you can find me on social media:

Thank you so much!!! I am pretty new to crochet (knitter) and every time I'd try a square...get confused, frustrated..you made it so clear and simply.
Glad I could help!
I am only 8 years old and you have taught me my first granny square. You are amazing, never give up on your dreams ❤
Thank you Gary and well done on your first square!😃🧶
@@HookedbyRobinThank you for replying it’s my dream to have a RUclipsr to reply to me I love your channel and will definitely be interested in doing some more from you
And in the future I would love to be a RUclipsr just like you so never give up on your dreams
My first attempt wasn’t fabulous and I set it down for a week. I just made my second attempt,watching you once again and it worked flawlessly and all made sense. Thank you!
Thankyou thankyou thankyou!!! This is the clearest tutorial I have seen so far and I have seen so many as I begin my crochet journey.
You’re very welcome!😃🧶
You were so clear about each step and were there right to the end so patiently repeating everything. Thanks very much to you for all the effort you put into this video for beginners like me. Thanks to you I just completed your granny square and like the way you change colour. Happy spring!
Thank you so much Helen, I am glad it helped and Happy Spring to you too! 😃🌻
I am 73 and just finished my first Granny Square. Thank you so much Robin, you explained eveything nice and easy in your tutorial. 😊
I love this Noralle, well done.😃🤗
Thank you! I finally get it. Watch half a dozen videos and yours I understand👍
🥰
I agree this video is so easy to understand for beginners
I am 75 and made my first granny square .Thank you for a very clear presentation.Be blessed
Dearest Robin!
I want to thank you so much for your help with this tutorial! From the bottom of my heart! I wish I could show you the progress as I am now in love with my throw 🥰🥰
This is the best demo ever! Watching this video is how I learnt to crochet granny squares. Thank you Robin for this tutorial 😊
Thank you so much Bianca!🥰🤗
I love this way you have done the granny square! Its so much easier then some of the other tutorials I've seen on RUclips. Please keep up the awesome work!
It is 12:13am, and I just finished my very first granny square ever, after needing to pull it out and restart this video about 4 times. We got there in the end, and I appreciate the fact that no matter how many times we repeated the same step, you showed/explained the steps. Very clear, very concise, 10/10, I love my new coaster.
A coaster is a great idea, well done on your first granny square! It definitely gets easier with practice.😃🤗
this is so helpful! i was struggling with other granny square videos but this one really changed things for me, thank you!
Just started knitting a week ago, and now I’ve started to crochet! After learning a whole bunch in just a few days I thought I should try the granny square! But after watching countless videos, trying it, and then re trying it. It just didn’t make sense! But I stumbled across your video and……..TA DA, I did it! Thank you for this effortless tutorial! I’m very pleased with myself!!!
Best tutorial ever,, I'm hooked! Thanks for taking the time and caring enough to help teach an awesome skill to many like me🥳🥳
I just finished my first ever actually cute granny square thanks to you!!! THANK YOU FOR MAKING YOUR VIDEOS I ADORE YOU!!!
You’re so welcome Natalie, I’m glad it helped.😃
This is an amazing tutorial! I just started crocheting 3 days ago, and was so scared to attempt granny squares! Robin made it so easy with this tutorial :)
Thank you so much Taylor! 😃🧶
Robin's videos are the best! There are no hidden secrets, and the instructions are so easy to follow. I love these videos.
🥰
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!
On my 3rd attempt I decided to watch your video and felt so confident with your instruction that I could pause finish a section and then continue. Now I have actually finished a Granny Square!! Thank you!!
yay! 😀
This is a fantastic and perfectly paced tutorial. Thank you so much for sharing!! :)
Robin - you really are the best instructor. So many previous granny square videos assume that a beginner somehow knows the VERY things we are there to learn. You do not assume and therefore make it all work! I appreciate you so much and as a lockdown learner feel that I now have a great channel and an even better teacher. Thanks so much 🙂
🥰
That was really great instruction! I’ve watched many of other good ones but yours really showed the easiest way. I’m so excited to start my crochet hobby 😊
Thank you so much Jen and crochet is the best! 😃🧶

Just learning how to crochet thank you for all your help with this video. I have made many mistakes but I have persevered and eventually made a passable granny square for first time ever . Thank you I am 78 years old and always admired crochet patterns.
You are so very welcome Pauline, I am glad the video helped!😃
I'm sure if you teach quantum physics, many of us including me will learn it in first go.
Why did I found you so late?!!! Thank you so much for this great tutorial!!!
Sat watching this after making a moss stitch scarf, which you explained exceptionally well. Thank you for sharing. Lovely to see all ages, giving this a go. Yay for us.
Thank you so much Dee and it is!😃🧶
Wonderful class and great video! Thank you so much for your instructive class, I thought I would never be able to learn how to do this granny square, you made it easy. Thumbs Up to you!
The best granny square pattern ive found yet so easy much More easier than other granny square patterns, very easy to understand and to accomplish without even thinking
Thank you so much Betty!🤗🧶
Yesss! I made it! Thanks for sharing 😘
You are so welcome!
I've been trying to learn how to crochet on and off for the last 25 years or so without success. I found this video this week and I have finally managed a granny square. Thank you, I can't actually believe it!
Any new crocheter could not have a better teacher Robin 😊Amanda xx💖
You are the most patient person. Your tutorial leaves no questions and is just wonderful. Your voice is mesmerizing. I’m having my husband watch, because he thinks there’s no way he’d be able to learn. With your tutorial, anyone can. Thank you so much!!
Aw thank you so much! What a lovely comment to read 🥰
This tutorial is so helpful and good that I remembered it YEARS later and specifically found it to show my friend how to crochet. You’re a hero.
I just started crocheting this summer, and i watched this one time. I've already made nine squares with four rounds. This tutorial is super helpful! Thank you so much! ❤
You are so welcome!😃🧶
Finally I can make a granny square!!
