UPDATE: Hi everyone! This video has received a resurgence of interest so I wanted to let you know that I AM making this blanket and will show you the finished project in a few weeks. Here are some answers to your questions in the meantime. The yarn is "Feels Like Butta" and is a sport weight (Med 4) requiring a 4mm hook. I used a 3.75 mm which made each square 4x4 inches. I am making a 3' x 4' FT throw blanket (not including the border) and I will need 108 squares to do this ( width= 9 squares, height =12 squares). Each square takes about 23 yards of yarn. The skeins I have are 218 yards each so I will need 12 Skeins to make this size blanket. Hope
@@victorialamarque-blair6289 12 skeins total varying the colors . When I bought the yarn at Michaels, the skeins were huge. Each was the equivalent of 3 skeins so I have essentially 15 skeins but definitely don’t need that much. So to answer your question, I would get two of each color (10) then choose a 6th color for the remaining 2 or maybe repeat 1 or 2 colors to reach 12.
I haven't made a granny square in 50+ years but this beautiful pattern has made me rethink them. In my teens I made a blanket for my mom using the standard granny square but ran out of yarn. With no money for more yarn it became what my family jokingly called the "Half-gan". Although my mom has been gone for many years, it still lives on and has warmed laps of our entire extended family over the years. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I just may have to try them again! ♥️
Hello, I just wanted to say how much i enjoy you crocheting. You go slow enough for me to keep up. I love how you talk slow enough and and show slowly how to make what ever you are making. I am 71 and have tried for years to learn crocheting. I can go on and on about the pleasure you give me. Thank you so much.
Good for you, older people can't complain when there is so much to see and learn on you tube,I'm mid sixties and have discovered and learnt to crochet on you tube,hope you have continued fun.
i have adhd and anxiety, wich makes me basically a super agitated person all the time and crochet is one of the few things that makes me slow down. it's such a relief. your video was awesome, i finally learned how to do it!! thank you so much for this!!
Hi Pati! So happy to read this and completely relate to you regarding crochet as a therapeutic resource. It has helped me so much these past few years. Amazing the affect it can have 🙌🏻 I’m honored to be a part of your crochet journey 💕😀
I did it.. I did it.. I just can't tell you I m so happy..it was my first try and you explained it so easily and make this possible for me in just first try. Thank you.
I cannot thank you enough for this video! I'm very new to crochet, have been trying to teach myself (thanks, COVID) and many "beginner" tutorials leave me so frustrated! This video could not be clearer, easy to follow and the results are beautiful. 🤗
Being a total newbie to crochet I've been watching a few videos and after getting frustrated and almost thinking it was too hard, I came across your video. Your instructions are so clear and got in nice and close to see what a finished stitch should look like that I now feel way more comfortable trying it out. Thanks so much for the post. Kia kaha (stay strong) from New Zealand :)
I’m so pleased to read this! I’m so glad the video helped. 😀💕 keep at it , it’s not easy at first but soon it will click and you’ll be making everything you want! 👏🏻💕
Hi Roz..Best Granny Tutorial ever!! I learned basic crochet 2 yrs ago- after knitting throughout my life- Im now 65 & i was intimidated to try any Granny Sq pattern- I couldnt get the"ring" idea..Today I sat down, determined to CAL with you this gorgeous sunburst..and Voila- 2hrs later- I completed my first Granny- learned the "ring" your way- just a center really- and I had REAL FUN..I love your method of teaching..I like how you stacked the basic cirles- to crochet the edges later..I like to complete projects- and I had just finished a crocheted tassel afghan 48X60 in..and I wanted to make something that can be pastels- like yours- or boho colors- or even made in OMBRE colors- cuz I have multiple stashes in different clors.. and I just had so much fun- this was a starting point- and Im going to make more squares & use your BLOCK STITCH BORDER because I love how it looks..Im so excited,,Thanks for making this so easy..I cant wait to see what I make!! XO
@@PlayHookywithMe Count me in asnew sub ..I cant wait surf your other tutorials!💕🤗💕 PS where did you get the cow mug? I love to collect mugs & teapots..💕💕happy grandma
@@DonnasCraftingWhimsy so glad you have decided to stay and “play hooky with me” - I’m a fellow collector of cups/mugs 👏🏻 I’m going to disappoint you with this answer , unfortunately ... my mum is British and several years ago she brought it back for me after a visit to the UK. It’s over 10-15 years old . 💕
Just be very patient with yourself . It will feel tricky at first but then it will click 💕 I’m trying to learn how to knit right now and I’m in the same boat you are with crochet. Don’t give up - it takes some time for the brain and the fingers to “get” it. Good luck , I know you’ll be able to make this!! 💕
I can easily say about you that you have lot of patience and a very smart lady. The way you did puff stich without chain in the start you are very creative. Tou must have explored lot of crochet tricks👏👏👏👏 very well explained and easy to work with👏👏👏👏👏👏
Good Afternoon Roz! I Appreciate you and your Crochet Tutorials so Very Much! ❤ I have always been in Love making just Baby Blankets to give away for Shower Gifts and Beanie/ Slouchy Hats to one of my Daughter's Sorority Charities. Then I came across your Tutorial on "How to Crochet the Sunburst Granny Square"😃 and that was about 1 year ago. I have been Hooked every since, making Sunburst Granny Squares every since then! I Absolutely Love making them! Two Family members asked me for a Sunburst Granny Throw and replenished my Yarn supply. 😊 I have made Four altogether, two of them went to my two daughters for keepsakes and the other two went to other extended Family members. Thank you and know that you are very Appreciated more than realize. Many Blessings to you and your Family! ❤❤❤
This made me tear up . Thank you so much for this lovely message. It means more to me than you know. So excited to read about all your projects that are bringing such joy to your family. I feel honored to be a part of it. Much love to you and all the best 💕💕💕
So nice with a video that actually explains everything so well voicewise, not just via a superfast video like so many others where it is very difficult to follow the pattern. :-)
Hi and welcome to Play Hooky with Me! I want to give a big shout out to those of you that take the time to watch, hit like and subscribe. It means the world to me and really helps youtube to push my channel. So, thank you! If you have a request for a video, don't hesitate to let me know. xo
@@poppykisley2459 Ugh, I know it. A lot of times you can carry the tail in the next round and catch it in the stitches and eliminate a lot of them that way. Leave a long tail and include it in your next round for about an inch or inch 1/2 (whatever you feel is good). I would also recommend getting a pack of "Susan Bates Finishing Needles". I couldn't find them easily at a store so I ordered them online. These have made the process much faster. I waste so much time trying to thread a needle and this takes that away completely. Hope that helps xx
@@elizavindas8525 I would repeat row 4 OR you could do the same sequence in row 4 with double crochets instead . I just tried it and it looks really nice . So row 5 would look like this : start in a corner with 3dc ch3 3dc . 3dcs in each cluster on the side until you reach the next corner (there would be 4 clusters on row 5 ) and continue this all the way round.
Thank you! Your color choices are beautiful. I have been crocheting for many years and was happy to learn a few new tips to make my work look even better. I look forward to more videos!
So lovely, I too have pups and they love the feel of my blankets, making it tough to share my work. I now go to my sister's house to do my work without pets!!
So glad I stumbled upon your tutorial!! Love the why you explain, slow and your video is so clear!! I have made the Sunburst block but joined it differently, I enjoyed so much making the Sunburst block, I think I am going to make another and use your method to join! Never done the Join as you go method, it looks so neat!! Happy Crocheting everyone! 🥰🧶☀️
This pattern is just so pretty. I must say I think you are a fantastic teacher... you make it simple and so easy to learn. And what a beauty Sadie is. I am an absolute dog lover so if I ever got one of your blankets and it had a Sadie hair in it I would be delighted. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us. God bless!!!
I know this video was made awhile ago but it's been years since I crocheted and I seen this video 1nd it inspired me to buy the yarn needed thank you. Oh I'd like to add I have pets too and I found that there is a shed comb for animals that I use on mine and it has reduced them from shedding hair all over as I brush them once a week. You can find it in 1 pet store or online . Looks similar to a mini rake but gets all the loose hair. Have a blessed day 🙏❤️🌈
Hello!! Just wanna say thank u so much for making this video!! It’s such an easy to follow tutorial. I’m a super new beginner and I made my very first granny square and I can’t express how happy I was after completing it. I struggled with learning how to crochet for weeks until I came across your channel ❤️🥺 sending u love all the way from Singapore 💗
Love your techniques and tutorial method. The pace is just right for me to re-learn this pattern. And it inspires me to continue finishing my huge blanket.
Thank you so much for plenty of little tips on joining the yarn for the circle parts of the pattern, I’m so glad I watched this video before I continued making them another way. They look so much better and neater now!
I’ve pretty much been crocheting on it for three days straight! 😄🥳 All of the 99 circles are done, now I feel like I’m getting closer to finishing it. It’s been a wonderful distraction! Cheers from Germany and happy 2021!
This was so helpful. Your tutorial was easy to follow and I love your voice and enthusiasm. I am using this pattern to make a hat and the join as you go method works really well. Keep it up!!!
I really enjoy your blog. Took me three tries but did the Sunburst. It was time to learn something that I had to count. Thank you, next going to try the kitty cats.
Hi! Your videos always show perfect up-close camera work and your explanations are also spot-on. I was looking for a pretty lapgan to make for a senior citizens home and this is it. Thank you so much for creating this video.
I wish you had a written pattern with all your specific tips and tricks! Love this channel but watching videos isn’t always so easy with many children. Love this square! Thank You
My name is Sandra I'm on my son's pad He died and I can't delete him from his pad I just thought I would let you know What a great idea to join granny squares I have watched many videos but the way you have explained it I got it yay. Thank you your amazing Sandra
Thank you so much for making this video! I love how the granny square doesnt look so classic with the touch of bubble pattern inside. I find it sooo pretty! 😍😍😍
I just came across your channel (I love your channel name!) and am so excited! I adore this pattern and your color choices! So beautiful! When I get better with my crocheting I will definitely try it. Just saved this video! Can’t wait to see the final blanket
Thanks for a wonderful tutorial. Easy to follow and I‘m looking forward using your cluster corners. You chose perfect colours and the blanket is amazing.
Lovely square, and easy! I used a size H hook and my square measured about 4 and 3/4", so I added another row of dc to get it 6". This square is great-I'll be makin more.
I'm loving granny squares right now! Thanks for the tutorial and the easy way to join as you go. It had not occurred to me to criss cross the corners when joining. Great idea!
Ugh you won’t find it unfortunately 😅 I turned it into a tote bag . BUT - there has been so much interest in this blanket that I’m in the process of remaking it and will have a video with the finished blanket in a few weeks 💕💕
@@PlayHookywithMe if I use two different types of yarn on a blanket will it be ok? It’s pretty much the same size just I got one from Walmart and one from dollar tree wondering if it will wash funny
@@sammyr.1284 I think you'll be okay if they are the same yarn weight. You'll notice a difference if one is a 4 and the other is a 5 for, for example, so I would avoid that . I have had to do the same thing with projects before and as long as I keep that the same, it usually looks fine. I would double check the washing instructions on both yarns and again make sure they are made the same way ( both made with synthetic yarns, both wool etc) If they are the same then everything should be perfect fine. xo
Hi there, I’m so pleased I found you Thru a friends link to your pattern, just great teaching gorgeous work. Have often wanted to try Feels Like Butta yarn - your squares look awesome thank you
Hola Roz. Gracias por compartir este hermoso patrón. Realmente explicas muy bien, no creí que pudiera lograr hacer este cuadrado de la abuelita pero seguí cada uno de tus pasos y me quedó súper lindo! Muchas gracias!!
I just recently stated back crocheting and came across your channel. I have really enjoyed your videos. I'm like you I can't sell my projects because all the pet hair that has found it's way into the stitches. That's okay with me for I'd rather have my babies and enjoy them then worry about selling my projects.
I love this tutorial but I have a question. My square isn't laying flat what am I doing wrong.? I'm using an H hook and using 4 weight yarn. . It seems over crowed can someone advise me please.
You can try going up a hook size to help loosen the stitches - or add a chain in between stitches to help give it more room. It’s easiest to do that in between granny clusters or in the corners . It just sounds like a tension issue so these two suggestions should do the trick 👍🏻
I love this tutorial and I LOOOOVE the colors you chose! I love doing starburst granny squares, but I keep having one issue: when I do my round of puff stitches, I tend to get a gap underneath it, between the puff stitch and double crochet. Your rows are all so tight and neat, and fit against each other so nicely! I'm wondering if I'm pulling too hard on the puff stitch, or if my double crochets aren't tight enough...do you have any words of wisdom you could pass on to a newbie crocheter?
Thank you so much - gosh I have to admit I’m not really sure what could be causing that. It could be an issue with tension - maybe a smaller hook size to see if that tightens it up for you ? I use a 3.75 mm eventhough my yarn calls for a 4mm. Maybe someone will read this and have some insights. Keep me posted if you find a resolution ❤️
@@PlayHookywithMe a smaller hook size might do it! since i’m still a beginner, i imagine it’s probably a yarn tension thing..i’ll keep at it! Thanks again for this video !
HAppened to me too! I realized that's because I didn't make the puff stitch between the double crochets but instead I made it inside of the double crochet.. if that makes sense. Go deeper, is what I'm saying kdsjdkjs
@@PlayHookywithMe am happy but the squares need more perfection at the corners.Your colours and the work itself is so perfect and I love watching this. Now I am trying to get the same yarn you have suggested from Amazon, (into India) but they cost a fortune :-) ...anyway am hoping I will be able to do a better and a slightly bigger project...thank you so so much for a lovely tutorial and for inspiring many ...❤️

Yarnhild - Crochet patterns - Häkeln thank you so much ! 💕💕😀
I can’t handle how beautiful this is! 👏🏼🤩😍 thanks for sharing going to see if I can find the finished work on your channel 👍🏼
Ugh you won’t find it unfortunately 😅 I turned it into a tote bag . BUT - there has been so much interest in this blanket that I’m in the process of remaking it and will have a video with the finished blanket in a few weeks 💕💕
@@PlayHookywithMe oh very nice. I saw the tote it’s adorable. Thank you for your hard work these videos are very helpful
@@PlayHookywithMe if I use two different types of yarn on a blanket will it be ok? It’s pretty much the same size just I got one from Walmart and one from dollar tree wondering if it will wash funny
@@sammyr.1284 I think you'll be okay if they are the same yarn weight. You'll notice a difference if one is a 4 and the other is a 5 for, for example, so I would avoid that . I have had to do the same thing with projects before and as long as I keep that the same, it usually looks fine. I would double check the washing instructions on both yarns and again make sure they are made the same way ( both made with synthetic yarns, both wool etc)
If they are the same then everything should be perfect fine. xo
@@PlayHookywithMe thank you ❤️
Thank you for the brief explanation 😊 very easy for the beginners to follow up 🙏
Thank you !
🐕 are a joy I ❤ 🐕
Thank you 💕💕💕
Thank you very much!!! I’m Brazilian so I can’t understand you, but i’m trying and I managed make do crochet squares like yours

I will try this later. Still a beginner and bought a yarn for a bucket hat, today!
@@adhitya2077 oooh fun!
I just recently stated back crocheting and came across your channel. I have really enjoyed your videos. I'm like you I can't sell my projects because all the pet hair that has found it's way into the stitches. That's okay with me for I'd rather have my babies and enjoy them then worry about selling my projects.
Yay! I’m glad I’m not alone on this with the pet hair. 😂💕 glad to see you here 💕
Awesome video good Job I in joy it thanks for the video I Love it have a good day and Night ❤👌👍
Thank you very much 😀❤️
Im very very new to crotchet but oh my im going to have to try this!
Thank you :)
Welcome to the world of crochet! I hope you are enjoying it so far 💕
This helped so much I wanted to learn how to do it and I finally found a good video
I’m so glad!
That yarn looks so soft. I may have to buy some.
It’s as soft as it looks 💕
Excellent tutorial
This just popped up and I love it 🥰 New subscriber here, video saved and will make this when I’ve finished my current blanket 😀
Wonderful! I hope you enjoy it as much as I have! 👏🏻❤️
I love this tutorial but I have a question. My square isn't laying flat what am I doing wrong.? I'm using an H hook and using 4 weight yarn. . It seems over crowed can someone advise me please.
You can try going up a hook size to help loosen the stitches - or add a chain in between stitches to help give it more room. It’s easiest to do that in between granny clusters or in the corners .
It just sounds like a tension issue so these two suggestions should do the trick 👍🏻
Thank you for replying. I went up two sizes. I'm using a K hook. I've never used one this big but so far it's doing good. Thank you again.
Lovely clear video. Thank you!
I love this tutorial and I LOOOOVE the colors you chose! I love doing starburst granny squares, but I keep having one issue: when I do my round of puff stitches, I tend to get a gap underneath it, between the puff stitch and double crochet. Your rows are all so tight and neat, and fit against each other so nicely! I'm wondering if I'm pulling too hard on the puff stitch, or if my double crochets aren't tight enough...do you have any words of wisdom you could pass on to a newbie crocheter?
Thank you so much - gosh I have to admit I’m not really sure what could be causing that. It could be an issue with tension - maybe a smaller hook size to see if that tightens it up for you ? I use a 3.75 mm eventhough my yarn calls for a 4mm.
Maybe someone will read this and have some insights. Keep me posted if you find a resolution ❤️
@@PlayHookywithMe a smaller hook size might do it! since i’m still a beginner, i imagine it’s probably a yarn tension thing..i’ll keep at it! Thanks again for this video !
@@PlayHookywithMe for
HAppened to me too! I realized that's because I didn't make the puff stitch between the double crochets but instead I made it inside of the double crochet.. if that makes sense. Go deeper, is what I'm saying kdsjdkjs
Thanks to you, my first attempt done, just 9 squares ... not as perfect as yours but feeling happy to have at least started. ❤️
Wonderful, I’m so happy I got to be a part of your project! I’m sure they are fantastic 😀💕👏🏻
@@PlayHookywithMe am happy but the squares need more perfection at the corners.Your colours and the work itself is so perfect and I love watching this. Now I am trying to get the same yarn you have suggested from Amazon, (into India) but they cost a fortune :-) ...anyway am hoping I will be able to do a better and a slightly bigger project...thank you so so much for a lovely tutorial and for inspiring many ...❤️
Hi, thank you very much for sharing this.
Your actions Re very much clear which make stitch simple for the viewers to understand. Thanks once again
Thank you so much, Preeti 😀💕
It’s beautiful!
