I am exploring granny square variations. Granny squares are versatile. I can let my imagination run wild with this simple motif.
There were several blankets made in the past using the stitch.
Here I stumbled on a square: half in one colour and half in another colour.
It is not as complicated as it seems.
If you haven't tried it yet, see this video and make one for yourself.
In the coming days, I will show you how to create a diamond motif with 4 squares. I know you are a helper to others. So, send some love to me by liking/sharing/subscribing to my channel.
Yes! I am going to start with crocheting a circle and to finish as a square
Start with a magic circle
Chain 3 Then make 15 double crochet
Skip stitch to the top of the chain 3 in the beginning cut yarn
Add the next colour between any two dc
Chain 3 Make a dc between the next dcs continue to make chain 1 and dc around and finish with a slip chain on top of the 3rd chain of the first 4 chains at the beginning of the row
Change colour and join yarn on any chain space. We are going to make 3 dc on each of the chain 1 space
Now we want to make it a square There are 16 clusters of 3 dc I am going to create 4 collections as one side of the square
Start with making a granny corner with (3 dc, chain 3, 3 dc)
If it is a granny square there should be 3 dc clusters between the dc clusters of the previous row But that will make the height of the stitches different
So, I worked 3 hdc on the next group 3 sc in the next
And another 3 hdc next now we are done one side
Continue with corner and sides to finish off
You can continue the next round by doing all dcs
With this square, I can make a blanket by continuing with more rows.
