“People who have been making granny squares for 20 years”
Me, who learned to crochet at age 5, who’s first project was a granny square, turning 21 in a few months and realizing I’m 🤏🏻 this close to being considered “granny square expert”
AGE 5? that so impressive. and so cool you continued with it. great job!
i would say you are if your have been crocheting since 5
A little late, but happy birthday :D
I thought I was young when I learned at 12! Impressive. You got everyone’s respect 🫡
ha ha
I'm rewatching the crochet/knitting videos, waiting patiently for the fantastic house to be finished... And I can't wait to see the next crochet videos IN the fantastic house...
ME TOOOO
ahahaha can't wait
Doing the same thing 😂
She’s so cute and creative ❤
Same here ❤
Beautiful work you have inspired me to start making granny squares and see where it takes me! Also I literally said in my head before you said it out loud “like a pharmacist” 😂😂💕
You make my day! Always makes me smile when I hear you say “I hope everyone is super dandy today!” You’re like an accessory I need to put on before I conquer the day. You’re full of energy and make me feel happy. Thank you! Keep doing what you do and never change!
Doesn't matter how long it takes you. What matters is that it comes out square, consistent tension, real corners on all four corners, and hopefully all of them are the same size!
I think somewhere in storage is a little booklet of "shrink vests" that are made with two granny squares, each large enough to cover your chest (not completely). Then plain crochet sections for the sides, shoulder straps, bottom band.
I must say I was not expecting something made from granny squares to look so nice. You did a great job. And I love it with the skirt.
I just randomly found her channel in my recommendation now i'm obsessed with her videos she's so freaking talented.♥️🍡💗💕🍨🎂🥰💖🍧🍭💘🥳🎡💖🎉✨🎂💞🎠🎠🧁🥰🍓♥️🍓
Me too
I just found her today👍🏻
Yeah me too and I can’t stop watching and I’m knitting while I watch her and it’s such a vibe😊😊😊
Same there so fun to match 😊
Like same lol love her❤
Can we talk about how her editing is iconic?
I just subscribed to your channel! You’re so much fun and very talented. I’m 75 and taught myself to crochet on u tube during the pandemic. I think you’re the cutest! Keep bringing your fun and very informative videos! I love them!💜💜💜
Love this sweater, makes me want to make one of my own!😍 cotton is the softest for wearables but be warned it does stretch out quite a bit!
I *love* how this turned out. The royal blue for the sleeve gusset and tops of sleeves was perfect! Btw I follow the channel that you learned JAYGo from. She is an excellent instructor, and I watched her JAYGo video when I was using it in a project I haven’t finished yet. Time to get back to it!
Love it! I just finished a granny cardigan.
You have inspired me to not give up and I see how taking what I don’t like apart and doing it again will produce something wonderful! Thank you
Honestly I have literally only just found your videos by chance and you are my new fave on here! I’ve been crocheting for 12 years but I was originally watching all your sewing videos (because you’ve inspired me to get my machine fixed and make some clothes) then I realised you crochet aswell!! I’ve binged watched your videos for the last 4 days lol loving your content ❤️❤️❤️so so refreshing
I have never liked the look of granny square sweaters, but that looks so good! I love the neckline and arm shaping! Inspirational!
very nice! I think you should add small ribbing to the bottom and the sleeves to finish it off nicely
Granny squares are awesome! I continue to go back to them after 50 plus years of crocheting! Relax and enjoy! There’s no hurry, it’s not a race. It’s not unusual to feel iffy until you finish. I’m amazed, even now, what I create! It’s a great feeling.
I would looove a pattern for this where the neckline etc. would be described in depth. It is so pretty!
Benson is one lucky lil precious pup!
Really enjoy your TH-cam channel. I think my favorite part is that you are so REAL & have an adorable personality.
And!
Love watching your PROCESS as you figure out what / how to do.
Like I said.... your REAL!
Enjoying R E A L!
Definitely using your channel to make something cute for my granddaughter! 👍 My skill is little behind you but pushing forward to become more skilled with each project I do.
it’s adorable i reminds me of the sweater you made out of the granny square blanket
absolutely adorable! It's really amazing how you combine so many different coloures and they match just perfektly 💙
Hi Jenna! Can you please make a video on how you wash your handmade clothes?
The colours are actually perfect. Screaming at how cute it is!💕🤩🫶
Well dang, You got this granny tempted to try making herself that sweater. My stash is perfect for playing with! Thanks for the inspiration Jenna! (Waving from Ontario)🇨🇦
Just a nit picky request: in your description box, could you include the links to the tutorial videos you mentioned? Great video btw. And congrats on your website!
the worsted weight #4 yarn would just be too hot for me so I will try a #3, thanks for sharing your granny journey! loved the way you improvised attaching the sleeves to the body!
You are so cute! I have been crocheting for over 50 years and you give it a good report. I love the fact you can do it on the couch
Bam bam, chicken turkey! Good work. 🤩
I'm not a very consistent knitter, crocheter or sewer, but I love it all. You are very inspiring. Love the way you just jump right in, and get creative. The sweater is awesome. Makes me want to make one. Thanks for showing us how you do it... the good, and the mistakes. It helps to know we're not alone in our mess ups. Lol
Aside from motivating me to finally start doing granny squares, I love how you introduced me to LOMI. I've been trying to find a perfect composter for my family and you had the answer! Just bought one using your link! Thanks Jenna 🤗
You are so refreshing! Love the way you talk and explain. 💝
I really like the Blue for the sleeve!!
That turned out too cute!! Great work 👏 The colors are distributed and paired extremely well, too!
currently making a granny square blanket! Making it with sunflower granny squares and I've run out of yarn so many times. Grannys squares eat up yarn like nobody's business
I love this video Jenna! The jumper turned out sooo beautifully. I love your colour combos, they are always so unexpected to me but work so well together. I would love to see the steaming/blocking process in the future!!
I just watched a video of yours, where you said you wanted to do something with granny squares so bad, and I'm so happy you finally did it 😭 And it turned out great, looks really good with the skirt!!
It turned out very cool and I especially love the blue in the sleeves. Sitting here with my kiddies crocheting and watching inspiring videos!
this is colour palette is so spot on
im crocheting right now and i was looking for a video to feel accompanied and i thought "it'd great if jenna posted a new video crocheting" cause yours are my favorites AND HERE I AM LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
Your sweater matches your skirt perfectly in the last clip after you’ve gotten done
Jenna, I hope you are doing well. I pray you will not let the heartbreak you have been through stop you from making such great videos. 💜
I think I’m addicted to her vids I have watched all of them…
I find Jenna to be entertaining, but the “Benson break” which put dog eating noises into my earbuds was really gross and I almost left the video. Luckily I remembered that I could fast forward, because I was massively curious about the finished product. It turned out great! I really don’t understand how she doesn’t look like she’s wearing an afghan. (I might have granny square afghan trauma from the 70s.) it looks really cute on her. Makes me want to try making some cotton granny squares.
It’s so cute!!! You are quite the designer my friend ❤️. Thanks for sharing the journey with us 🤗🤗🤗
this reminded me that I have been neglecting granny squares and I need to do more with them ASAP
So, so super cool. Love it like you present your style. Bravo girl. Hugs from Germany 🇩🇪 ❤
what is the name of the documentary ?
I’m using Toni’s JAYG method right now on a granny square blanket. She’s a great teacher!
Mrs. Phipps, what happens is when you have been crocheting for 40 plus years, like i have, your hands just take off on their own.I'm 73, I've been crocheting since I was in 4th grade. My guess is about 11-12? If I'm following a pattern (like the sleeves of a cardigan) I'm slower because I'm a stickler for being exact, but it's like the programming is in your hands. I had a very elaborate bedspread square in fine thread. I had made an entire bedspread with it and then lost the pattern. One day, I just picked up thread and hook and started the square... my hands knew the pattern, exactly. I even remembered how to join them correctly. I felt like I wasn't even thinking of the pattern. That is where the speed comes from. If I am making a pattern stitch ( I mean something like popcorns or fans) I love, and have done before, my speed picks up. I am amazed to see how popular the granny square is becoming. My mom used to make bedspreads of them.. I used to wear vests of them at one of my first jobs, a saleswoman at a fancy department store in 1972-74! I've never had the nerve just to play with patterns like you do, I'm a pattern collector and have always been so. I have books and magazines from the very early 70s! Oh, say hi to Benson. He's a cutie.
PS. The only thing that slows me down is when the arthritis gets bad.
I can crochet a granny in 5 mins, but I’ve been crocheting for about 50 years. In fact, my first project was a black and multiple color granny blanket for my Mom. That blanket lasted almost 50 years! I rarely crochet fast anymore. I usually just crochet for myself so there’s rarely any hurry. Granny squares haven’t gone out style. I love to learn new variations that come along.
The different textures of the stitches you used are really nice!
It goes perfect with that skirt and it’s very nice
I love that sweater! And, I hunk I will be crocheting again. I’m literally a grannie; last time I crocheted was in the 70s. Bags for myself and my sisters-in-law and a long vest.
She- “it takes me 30 mins “
Me- Takes 2 hours to make one granny square 😭😭❤️
Hii! So happy to see another video ur so inspiring love ur energy💓🐇🌱
Wow, it turned out just beautiful!
Omggg hi jenna!!! I love your stufffff omlll
OMG the satisfaction of looking at the stack of granny squares ❤️❤️❤️ Same sis 🙌🏻
I wonder if changing the way you hold the hook to a pencil grip would speed up your crochet. Then hold the yarn over your left forefinger. Your movements would be much smaller then, resulting in more speed. Beautiful result, Jenna!
❤ the jumper. Colours are great as well.
Very nice, I have a bunch of granny squares, I need to finish up for Christmas gifts
Very creative design 👌 l Iike the way you shaped the sleeves and the neckline.
Please crochet an extra row around the waist edge. This will take the strain off the individual granny square joins & save you a lot of mending later on.
Under 20 minutes is actually really good, everyone with ten minutes is lying and/or not switching colors like you are :), switching colors every row takes an eternity for me
Cute! Cute! Cute! Love how you did the sleeves, very clever. And it looks great on you.
Jenna, you can crochet and knit the ends in as you go so you’re not stuck with all the ends.
I‘m obsessed with these videos ❤
Obsessed with this!! But I would love to know more in depth how you created the neck and shoulder to connect the front and back, as well as the sleeve triangle. Great work!
You are so entertaining Jenna. I love watching your videos while I crochet, keeps me in the zone haha. I've never really made anything with granny squares either despite how long I've been crocheting. Maybe this is a sign that I need to try it out?
That jumper looks incredible! And now I want to make my own. Damn it. I'm still working on my humongous sunburst granny square blanket xD Well... Now I know what I'll do once that one's finished...
Ok. You're amazing. Your granny square sweater is beautiful and you made it without following a pattern. I wish I could do that. Brava! Subscribed.
I love your videos! I love just sitting down and crocheting along while watching your videos it makes me feel like I have friend to crochet with!
I saw you wearing this on a recent video, and I was hoping you had made a video about it 😃and you did! I love it, thanks Jenna 😊
I know it’s been two years when you made this but I just started making a granny square sweater and when you said some people can make one in 10 min I was it takes me like. 30 I feel the same way
Jenna, You are adorable, amazingly talented, smart, entertaining, beautiful and so inspiring! Thank you for putting yourself out there and the wonderful content you share with all of us. I am a huge fan!!❤️👏👏👏🙏
"LOOK AT IT" : Can a phrase be my spirit animal? ... A true expression of a creative's soul. "LOOK AT THIS THING I MADE!"
Wow that design is BEAUTIFUL.
She makes everything she does look so easy!
I really like your mug👍🏻😄
Oh my goodness- after my bag - I’m trying this🥳
