About This Video

In this video I’m walking you through how to crochet a basic granny square step by step, in that classic/traditional style that works for so many projects. If you’ve never made one before, don’t worry—I keep it beginner-friendly and show you how the square is built round by round so you can actually understand what’s happening instead of just copying stitches. This is one of those foundational crochet skills that opens up a ton of possibilities once you’ve got it down. I’m using a 5mm Clover Amour hook in this tutorial, and I share this style of granny square because it’s super versatile—you can use it for blankets, bags, scarves, and basically anything you want to piece together. Once you learn the repeat, you can make your squares as small or as big as you like, change colors whenever you want, and start planning full projects from just this one simple square. If you have questions while you’re learning, you can always reach out to me by email, and don’t forget to subscribe for more crochet, yarn, and cozy WIP content.
