I love that you go quickly and don't take a lot of time over-explaining everything, like some crochet tutorials. I learned to crochet completely through RUclips videos, and yours are my favorite. Thank you! :D
THANK YOU THANK YOU... I am a beginer and this vid .. Ahhh made a pinnk and white baby blanket.. like Pink Granny Squares and White Granny Squares sewn together.. You are such a blessing to me..
It has been years since I made a Granny square so needed a refresher course, and this video did just the job. Thanks Michael.
Much appreciated. I'm a visual learner and these videos along with your explanations are great!
Out of all the Crochet channels on You Tube, I find myself coming back to Crochet Crowd all the time... Easy to follow, flows well... And easy to pick up the techniques :)
Thanks for the instruction. I found it very easy to follow. I recently took up crocheting again after not having done it for almost 30 years. I did so because, one day, I noticed a small granny square blanket I'd made once still looks almost new-- and it dawned on me everything that blanket has gone through: two children playing with it (who are now in college) innumerable moves, cats, dogs-- you name it. Crocheted work lasts!
I love your video because it is easy to follow. I am passing your you tube to my facebook friends. Thank you for your help.
This is an awesome tutorial! Thank you! My grandma was teaching me to crochet when I was 15 and we really didn't get to it all before she passed away. Now I can make a granny square afghan!
@mikeyssmail thanks, Mikey. I figured it out, after noticing the cross shape in the middle with the gaps between the crosses arms. I'm very visually mathmatic, I see everything as a pattern, like a mosaic. These really were simple to make once I learned it. I've made 22 without "messing up" or having to start one over. Thanks for your videos. They helped much more than the other granny square vids I watched on youtube.
Wonderful, it has been years since I've done a granny square, Mikey does a great job.
Thank you so much for this video! You are a wonderful teacher. I used this video for the 7 blankets I am making for my nephews and nieces! They are 4 foot long by 3 foot wide! I have 3 done so far and working on my 4th.
I really enjoyed your video! I used to crochet alot about three years ago and wanted to get back into it, thanks so much for your help!
Im totally making a blanket out of a granny square. It seems the easiest and smartest way to make a blankie :)
@gentlenurse82 these squares take practice.....keep on trying :) at the beginning you should have 4 main puffs or clusters of stitches like a cross and thin stitches where you chained two attaching them ....these thin chain stitches is where you want to add you next round of corners .....pay attention to your corners!!! (3dc ch2 3dc) let me know if you need more help...... cathy @ mikeys helpdesk :)
U made this look easier than other vids ...thank u!
Hello Mikey
Great video had been struggling with getting an easy square demo - found this and watched while copying what you were doing and as such I have got a square that is growing rapidly!
@gentlenurse82 YAY!!!!!! I am so happy that my visual explanation helped you figure out your grannie squares!!!!! Bravo to you!!!! Enjoy them now..... there are so many different ones to make!....LOL !!!
Cathy @ Mikeys helpdesk :)
Finishing off granny square
your doing great!!! Just watch your corners.... its a (3dc ch2 3dc) configuration at each corner if you miss this step your granny will be more of a circle than a square ;) keep trying.....you will get it ;) cathy@ the crochet crowd helpdesk ;)
Wow, it looks great. I would love to try it by myself, but I don't have the stuff. I think I'll buy it tomorrow.
wow i think i'm in love, the other 3 videos that i saw confused me but yours didn't (all i could figure out was love knots lol)
This is such a good video! So easy to understand!
THANK YOU! Your videos always help me so much!!
you are always helping me when iam confused . thank you
This is a great video. I wished you would go over how to end the granny square though.
Thanks for the quick response!!
they may stretch enough and look ok if not the smaller ones might pull on the others....you might want to take the smaller squares and try adding a sc border around the edge of the whole square to make them as big as the other larger squares ..this will help when joining them and will get them to be all the same sz ....hope that helps cathy@ the crochet crowd :)
you chain 1 in-between the corners but on the corners you chain 2....so its (3dc ch2 3dc) on corners and 3dc and a chain 1 after in-between....
cathy @ the crochet crowd help desk :)
Thank you, Mikey!
to make a granny you can use the hook sz the pattern is calling for but to learn along you can use an I or J sz hook and it will work fine .....I think mikey is using a sz I ......hope that helps cathy@ the crochet crowd
YAY! Thank you SOOO much! I've been searching for instructions on how to START this type of Granny Square since April 2nd!!! YAY!
Question though... If I made a video showing you how I was taught to do corners, etc, would you be able to tell me WHAT kind of crochet pattern I am actually doing?
Thanx mikey very much. This is awesome. :)
@alovelylittledeer you need to make sure you are doing a set of 3dc ch2 3dc at each corner are you dong that??
Cathy@the crochet crowd :)
Love this easy way to make granny squares:) Thanks for sharing:) toni g. :)
im glad you did this video. I came out of crocheting for a few years. Im starting back again. I didnt remember how to crochet this grannys squares. Now I did. Do you have something where you can crochet granny squares as you go? I hate seaming them. There gotta be an better way.
I think Mikey is using an I sz hook in the video ...Cathy@ The Crochet Crowd:)
@532818 i think for learning a sz J hook or 6.00mm is good or an I hook sz is good too
great instructions!!! do you have a written copy so we dont forget... God forbid we lose your video )
@rajan5226 not sure ?? she must have missed a step somewhere?? you might want to go back and see where you dbl crocheted corners at the beginning....good luck cathy @ mikeys helpdesk
hello....yes you can totally keep going around the square until you have a blanket sz square!!! cathy@ the crochet crowd helpdesk :)
Heck, that's what I'm doing right now! I'm changing colors every 9 rows, working my way through the primary rainbow, RoyGBiv. :D
Though it will need some blocking near the end, due to physics.
@bunnywitclass ok....if your square is going round that is telling me you are not getting your corners done right.....you need to do 3dc ch2 3dc on each corner to make it pointy....keep trying and pay close attention to your corners and I think you will get it.....good luck....let me know if you need more help.....cathy@ mikeys helpdesk :)
my personal preference---as a very very beginner, would be to not worry about the straggle end at all....that can be sewn in later....i am having alot of difficulty learning the granny square.....i also have to keep pausing and starting over, perhaps you can make one that goes really really slow?
@missmorgan04 Mine were coming out like that.. you have to keep going.. if you do corners right it will square out.. I got frustrated trying to self teach... and I would start with a circle. Girr It was frustrating.. but finally watched this and tried. Its square!!
@skyelovesicp oh no..... keep practicing.....:) pay attention to the (3dc ch2 3dc) corners thats what makes the square :) cathy @mikeys helpdesk :)
I hope i would understand this lesson
pls make a vedio on a crochet dress and a cape also a bolero for a girl 6yrs
@crochetgirl09 where? while you are making the grannie or at the end?? chanle@ mikeys helpdesk
Thx
@532818 hey...ok when a granny square goes round its because your not doing the corners right its a series of 3dc......2chains.....3dc at each corner try that and see if you get it...it takes some practice!!!! let me know if i can be anymore help.......chanel @ mikeys helpdesk..... :)
You need to update the video with the joining the square at the corner with a HDC.
Do you think I should just delete this one? It's really old.
I learned that concept just a few years ago. I do have other projects that show that. However, Yarnspirations doesn't always use that when the colour changes, they do this. When they don't change colour, the hdc is used.
Probably a dumb question but do I slip stitch into the slip stitch I made for my crochet hook?
I am making a granny square blanket as one continuous square with multiple colors of yarn. As my square grows and I hold it up it starts to look crooked. I am not missing any stitches. What am I doing wrong. Am a supposed to turn my work on a granny square?
Determining what is a corner and what it not a corner (to put the hook through) seems to be my downfall. Mine comes out very round, lacking distinguishable "corners". I see many holes, I have no earthly idea which holes in this round cluster of yarn are "corners." When completed, I take my non-uniform, uneven product and stretch it into a square shape. This makes me feel somewhat more accomplished.
Was going good until second round where it got confusing. You should slow down too.. gonna go find another vid..
love it what size hook are you using?
What size hook were you using please? thanks
Why on the second row is he alternating saying chain one then chain two?
my daughter said
for the corners like you said, need four hole but she's only getting three
why?
@mikeyssmail I'm doing chain 2 and 3 double crochet but it is round :(
@D0R4H I finally got it!!! =)
i really appreciate the tutorial but the audio is SUPER quiet, even with the volume turned way up. just thought i'd let you know :)
How do i do a chain 6 granny square! my friend has started them for me and I wanna do it myself!
@missmorgan04 YAY great job!!!!
Hey, mine keeps going round. Pls help!
@bdebbins2419
hello...... mikey doesnt say but I think its either an I or a J hook either one will work just fine for this project!!
chanel@mikey helpdesk... :)
What size hook u using in this video??
You had me at first and it was going great then you went too fast and I got confused with the different number of chains at each corner. :(
This was really easy to do, but you go way too fast when you double crochet its hard to keep up. I have to keep pausing and playing :/
Cant get closer?
Mine ended up a circle :/
hi trying again for the 100th time, it keeps going in circle :( why why !!!
(T~T) I need help with this one. My granny square comes out round. Help ?
I don't mean to sound ungrateful but you are going too fast with the tutorial. I kept replaying the bit where you did the "turn" on the corners in Round/Row 2 because I couldn't see where the crochet hook was being placed... your left thumb was in the way.
I ended up figuring it out by studying the finished piece you have laying down in the background because there is no way I could see where the double crocheting was happening.
Just something to keep in mind for the future.
I don't get how u get 3 loops
3 double stiches in the same space will give you three loops.
"and now your figer should be in the center on your square"
ummm noo. i have a clump, but thanks.
bit too fast... i think crochet is hard. i only can do chain
Your hand is covering your work too much, we need to see it more so we can compare! :O
Ive been crocheting for 5 years and your still going way too fast for me!
way too fast!
Try pausing the video at each step. Or find a picture tutorial. Sometimes a combination of the two forms of learning can be hugely helpful. Also, try their blog, Knot Just Another Blog (someone correct me if I'm wrong! It's late .. ). If you go to the FB page or sign up for the Newsletter, you can find other helpful folks, like me, who'd be more than willing to help. Just msg me if you like =)
not very clear at all, and i can hardly hear you ......yon talk to much about how to position your fingers and thumb at the start, its confusing,
You go to fast!! I'm going to find another video.
i hate this it is so freaking difficult
For a beginner video you go really fast, I can’t follow along at all.
I'm sorry about that Rachel. You can use the RUclips Player Window to slow any RUclips Video down if you need the motions to be slower.
you're going so fast :(
