:: Cute Tute : How To Crochet Simple Granny Squares

March 24, 2012

Remember I showed you these Simple Squares? Well I made some Double Simple Squares too. Here is a tutorial, in case you are a beginner, so you can do it too!

If you don’t know how to crochet, you can learn here with me. You can also sign up to A Granny A Day and pledge to learn to crochet, to crochet a granny square now and again, or to crochet a granny square each day!  Do that here. Go on!

Would you like to make Simple Squares? Or would you like to make Double Simple Squares?! Let’s go!

Please note : to make the Simple Square (the ones at the VERY top of this post) ignore the first colour change in this slide show and just use your main colour for that round. Only change colour at Round Five!

Have fun making squares, loves!

    Thank you for such easy to follow instructions. Now I've nailed it I'm off to buy yellow wool to make a nice cushion for my new grey sofa… that I'm yet to buy. Nothing like being prepared, I say!
