    I’m so happy to have found this! I have one and a half granny squares my deceased grandmother crocheted and I wanted to make these squares into a blanket. Your pattern looks JUST like the ones she crocheted, so I’ll use this video to make more squares ❤

      @Barbara Gillispie, I do too! I've only been crocheting for about a year now and I've never made a granny square blanket!! 😂 But now that I've started, I can't stop making the squares! It's so weird but I think I'm addicted to it. As soon as I wake up, I always have to put my hook through some yarn.... Doesn't matter what it is.. how weird is that? I do it before I even have my coffee.. lol. I swear I don't even know how many squares I have - it all started with this CAL that started at the end of January. We're supposed to crochet 4 squares per month from January to December. I think I'm clear down to October by now.. 😂😂💜🌼💜

    Thank you Anya for the video I made my first square, however felt you were too fast for me and had to slow the video.
    If anyone feels the same this is what you can do. Lightly tap on the video, and you will notice 3 dots in the corner, tap that and you will get a menu choose playback speed, and choose any of the option above “normal” which should slow the video down.
    Hope this helps, happy crocheting!

I have just completed a 64 sunburst square blanket and used your join method from the ‘English Rose’ blanket and am delighted with the results. I really like this perfect square and am wondering if you can make suggestions on how I can join them together to make a blanket?

    • @pamsauce2903
      @pamsauce2903 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      When you go to hide your beginning loose yarn, use a needle to thread it around the middle circle and pull. After this you will need to go around a little further and then double backwards for a round.
