She is the best teacher I've seen. I had stroke a few years a go and my short term memory is flawed. Watching her instructions over and over I fianally get it. Thank you, thank you!! Patti
I also had two stroke and was about to talk, write, walk etc again. I was always a crocheter and I was afraid I wasn’t going to be able to crochet again it been 9 years now, I had to learn to crochet again but with TH-cam I learned again and learn more stitches and techniques. I also improved my knitting and sewing. It was at my own pace, rewinding over and over again. TH-cam is great for learning new things and improving new skills for seniors. I hope they stop trying to change it.
I've used your missed stitch method to repair heirloom blankets. It's priceless to be able to fix works of art of those long dead so the blankets can continue being used and loved.
I liked your comment about not "unseeing" a mistake. Because I do many different types of crafting and needle work I have made my share of mistakes. I am also a bit of a perfectionist so when I have made mistakes--crochet, cross-stitch, tiny bead weaving, painting--I obsess about it to the point of driving my poor husband nutty. Finally he asked me to show him the general area of a mistake and said if he could pick it out without me identifying it right away then it was probably worth trying to fix. He said if he couldn't find it, most people would probably not notice it either. That was about 20 years ago and this method still works for me. He has also learned a great deal about crafting himself!
Finally I can make a blanket after 3 years of trying! Thank you from this 72 year old Grandma who taught myself to crochet at this age but it just never really clicked so that I could complete a project til now! Thank you!!!!
I am catching up on all of your older videos Roz and I must say your instructions on these are the BEST! I have been trying so many Granny Rectangle tutorials and some people make them so difficult for old lady (a 75 year old beginner) crippled fingers to follow. Your rectangle granny is PERFECT for me. Thank you so much for such awesome tutorials!❤🦋
My Mom always had us flip our Granny Squares....I was surprised how many current UTuber teacher's don't even suggest this! It makes Granny's so much easier. Thank you for reaffirming this technique!
Good morning from a sunny Sunday in Australia. Oh wow I just found your TH-cam channel thank you I haven't done any crochet in 50 years oh you are a great teacher ❤️🇦🇺👏
I absolutely love that you hold your working yarn the same way I do. My grandma and aunt tried for so many years to make me hold it with my pointer finger sticking up in the air, and I could never get it. As an adult, I picked up yarn again and did it my way, and now I am so good at it, and discovering many people hold it alternative ways and that is absolutely OK!
you are so precise with your crochet, which is great for me because I am a little OCD with my crochet and knitting. thanks again for another wonderful video. Your tips are so helpful
I am so happy to finally find a way to keep my square, a square lol. I have crocheted my whole life so it's about time to finally figure this out. Thank you so much! :)
5:38 this trick is ever so much easier than the way I had invented for myself, not having anybody to teach me or enough vocabulary on the subject to ask anyone who could tell me... a heartfelt thank you for sharing this with us
Wow! Game changer for the times when I see that I did 2 instead of 3 dc in a space. I always frog the whole row cuz I have to be such a perfectionist. Thanks for that tip.
This is the simplest and easiest way to do a granny rectangle that I’ve found. And thank you soooo much for the tip about flipping the squares! I’ve been making wonky ones for 50 years! Hahaha!
This is the type of crocheting my grama used to do! She made blankets with the infinity granny stitch. Thank you for showing this!! I've been looking all over youtube for how to make blankets like she used to.
Well, I was one to not flip my work around. Boy was I wrong! At first I wasn't going to do what you suggested, I just wanted the basics. I thought ok this time I'll follow the video and do what she says. All I could hear in my head was "trust the process". I trusted the process and the rectangle had the crispest lines I've ever created. Thank you. I'm learning something new in honor of my sister Ginger. She was the crocheter in the family, I'm hoping to fill her shoes. I think I'm on my way. Blessings! And thank you!
Lovely! Reminds me of my mum who died 30 years ago an ardent crocheter! I still use rugs she made! How she would have loved you tube and this lady! Methods in those days were passed on person to person! What a marvellous teacher this lady is!
Just what I’ve been looking for! Knitting my first infinity granny blanket right now, and loving it; no counting rows, easy pattern to remember. Ticks all my boxes!
My mom taught me how to crochet when I was in 4th grade about 9 years old. This is the pattern she taught me on. Thank you for the refresher. You made me smile, thank you
I really enjoy all the tutorials I've used on Play Hooky With Me. She is very thorough in her instructions & doesn't leave anything out. Very easy to follow.
Ive been shown how to do a granny square many different ways, every way has been different, but your way is def something I'll have to give a try, especially the rectangle, I've never seen a rectangle version like this before. Thank you for some new inspiration, got yourself a new sub.
Hi Roz. I needed to tell you that I was taught how to crochet when I was in first grade by my great aunt. Since then I have taught many including my sister and mother-in-law that are lefties. Your videos are well-planned, very clear to understand, spoken with a calm voice but most of all, one can tell what a dedicated love that you have for crochet. Thanks for what you offer to all of us. We greatly appreciate it and we hope that you will continue. Hugsss, Kat.❤
Your words have touched my heart, thank you so much . It helps me to know that I’m teaching in a way that is easy to understand. That’s my goal each time I sit down and film. I’m never sure if I have or not.😅 Thank you , Kat ❤️
@@PlayHookywithMe I understand what you mean. Our society sadly dwells on the negative, therefore only speaks up when there are problems. I practice and prefer to acknowledge the positive. So, trust me, I am being truthful. ❤️
I thought I was the only one who held the yarn this way! I’ve never seen anyone else do this. They always have their pointing finger held out and up. So nice to see someone else crochet this way 😊
@@PlayHookywithMe Nice to know I am a member of a tribe! Loved the video 💕 Turning the granny square was new to me but am going to try it out. Your 2 examples side by side were very persuasive 😊 Will be checking out your other videos 👍
Been trying to make 1 granny square since I started crocheting 4 months ago… have had no luck until watching this video. Thank you sooooo much. I finally made one!!
Hi roz just to say I think your idea of flipping. Is so great I love the rectangle too. I have done a lot of your corner to corner granny blankets for charity so well-received by everyone .huge thanks. Your very talented and a great teacher too. God bless you, ❤❤❤
I started flipping my granny square/round wirk some time ago and just loved the final result. Flat and reversible granny square. You are a great teacher . From São Paulo, Brazil
Love your videos! I’ve crocheted since I was 12 and I’m 63 now. I learned things I had no idea about watching your videos and appreciate your time and the knowledge that you share with us. Thank you so much!!! ❤
Thank you for such an excellent tutorial! This is my first granny square and second blanket and to call it my favorite thing I've ever made is the understatement of the century. Every time I look at it I'm in shock that I made something this beautiful with my own two hands!!
I’m a newbie... learned my stitches and made few pairs of coasters n really itching to make some blanket .. n I found this video .. oh my god , this is awesome ... thank you for sharing this amazing blanket idea 😊
Oh I’m so excited that you are excited 😂💕👏🏻💕 I love reading messages like this. I hope you enjoy making your blanket , I know you will! 🧶❤️ thank you for telling me!
I love your tutorial. I’m a new viewer and happy to say a new subscriber. I like your voice and the way you instruct without a lot of unnecessary talking.
This is my first time crocheting a blanket but with this tutorial it was so easy! In the beginning I had to restart because my tension was too tight and it wouldn’t lay flat but now I’ve just been adding little by little every day and I am going to have a comforter for my bed in the summertime! Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial!
I'm 19 and started to crochet for a while now, I have watched easily 8 videos on how to do a granny square for a blanket, and not once dit it stay a square until I found your video when I was about to give up on it, Thank You! Now I can make a blanket for winter ❤
Hi and thank you AGAIN for responding back so quickly and for your help and suggestions! I am looking forward to exploring more of your video tutorials including the C2C for beginners AND converting the granny square into a rectangle which should be perfect for wheelchair blankets!! I should have mentioned that I am a lefty so when you say the wrong side, it really is my right side!!😂
Oh you’re a lefty! I’ve often thought of mirroring my videos so it’s in the left hand orientation but they would be a bit weird since I’m sure I’m using left/right as I speak . Maybe it could be something I offer as help when needed . ❤️
These are great tips. You do beautiful work. I too am obsessed with granny squares. I love to make charity blankets either row by row or a granny going around and around like this video. Glad to have these tips to make my squares neater. 💜💕💜
Never heard of flipping your work to keep things square. Great idea. I will try it. Also love your colors (black, pink, tan, white) on your cover shot.
I first heard of that from Tony on TLYarnCrafts. It is so incredibly useful, I can highly recommend doing it for any project where you repeat a single stitch over and over, such as a shirt or sweater.
Have made several of these for Christmas presents. And also.for women's shelters ect. And never had problems with the corners stretching out like that. Since I am only 1 crocheting in order to make as many as possible I work in the round.
That is so smart. I never thought of slip stitching in second dc, also flipping the work makes a neater work. And never did a rectangle granny square. Thank you.
My very first project many years ago was in 2nd grade when my teacher taught us girls how to crochet. I loved it so much, we made a pot holder. I was unable to continue with learning and tried to pick it back up about 13 years ago but nothing came out right so I trashed all my projects. Now I am back again wanting to learn and your video has taught me so much. I am looking forward to making blankets for Halloween, fall, Christmas and for our bedroom and guest room.
Wow, I’m so excited to begin an infinity granny square. I have completed one before; however, I struggled with closing the circle and changing colors. Your great video ( camera angle and instructions) have made the pattern so much clearer. Thank you
I have recently began a cozy mystery called “ Hooked on Murder” and the main character learns to crochet. Since I’m a beginner I can relate to her struggles. Thanks again
Thank you sooooooooo much for the tutorial. I usually don’t follow along to these kinds of videos I’ll just watch and figure it out on my on but it’s so much easier to follow along thanks!!
I really need to try and let other crocheters know how much I despised doing granny squares until this tutorial came out. Now it is not a chore and the final squares are so beautiful!!! Do try this pattern if in past you have found yourself avoiding granny squares. 💕
Absolutely genius idea I never ever flipped my squares and I have this project and wow does it make a difference no more wonky squares thank you so much great video.
Thank you for this amazing video. I had no idea flipping was a thing. I’m new to crochet n I love how simple you explain it!!! Watched the whole video now going to make a granny square with you, Yay!! 😊🙌🏼🌸
I just wanna say thank you! I’m still a beginner. Started learning late August and was having so much trouble making granny squares. Last week I found this video and it’s so well explained! Already made one and it looks great. Thank you again, for sharing your knowledge with us ❤
@@PlayHookywithMe Definately! I always found it difficult to find the corners on my granny squares, so I stopped making them, but it fits so nicely to my scarf
Happy Thanksgiving ! I have to admit that I am utterly addicted with the Granny Square for its nostalgic quality and versatility. In this video, I share how the infinity granny/rectangle is truly one of the easiest blankets you can make if you are a beginner. Limited counting and only chains/ double crochets are needed to whip this up. This is also a great "go to" if you are a seasoned crocheter wanting to get some stash busting done! Hope you enjoy the video and let's play some hooky! xx
Thank you so much! I just started recently and have not been able to understand how to make a granny square until I found this video! This is super cool!!!!
I love the colors you've used with these granny's! I'm really impressed with that tip for making your granny square flips! I've always done it the other way and like you mentioned in your video it's not straight, it's kinda wavy. So now when I make granny squares I'm flipping!! Thanks for the great tip! I've never made a rectangle granny square either, so I'm gonna try my hand at doing both the traditional and the rectangular granny!! Love this video! So informative!! Thank you!!
Iv been trying for ab 4 weeks trying to find different videos to see which would work for me and this was the very best I recommend this so much I have now just made my first ever square and now I can make many more projects ❤
Thank you for the tip aboit flipping the granny square.Ive just made a blanket and it's turned out absolutely perfect.You're a fabulous teacher ❤❤watching from South Africa
Hello! I just found you today 4/23/21. I've been looking for an infinite tutorial. I'm so glad I found you, your instructional video is so easy to follow. Thank you
Thank you for an excellent tutorial on the Infinity Granny Square. I have been wanting to try this pattern for a long time and after watching your video, I'm ready to start! Love your channel! Thank you for sharing!
Wow! Thank you! I thought it was me!!! I did a whole afghan in wanky squares! It has a nice swirly effect which looks cool. BUT it’s not was I intended!!!!! I want a PERFECT square! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!
Thank you so much for the tutorial....ordered my yarn for this today, hopefully it will be here by Friday. I love the look of granny squares but HATE joining, so this is beyond perfect. Can't wait to get started....PS I did a 6" swatch and using your instructions it came out perfectly square. Thanks again.
Great video - Love the flipping tip ! Never made a rectangle, I’ve made the regular granny square in the round and I’ve made granny square rows. Looking forward to a good stash buster ! new subscriber 👍
Just found your channel after dabbling with very basic crochet over the years...wanting to get back into it and this tutorial is just excellent. I don't want to be dramatic, but I can't tell you how thrilled I was to see how you hold your hook! I have never been able to hold mine any other way and I feel encouraged seeing you and your beautiful work. I look forward to trying the rectangle version of this when I get my yarn order. I've subscribed...😊

Yeah you !! 🙌🏻 Thank you so much for taking the time to share this, you have made my day. 💕🧶🧶🧶💕
The first instructions online that I have been able to follow. Thank you so much.
I’m so glad you found the video useful, thank you for telling me 💕
Wow, I’m so excited to begin an infinity granny square. I have completed one before; however, I struggled with closing the circle and changing colors. Your great video ( camera angle and instructions) have made the pattern so much clearer. Thank you
Oh good, I’m so glad you found it helpful 😀💕
I have recently began a cozy mystery called “ Hooked on Murder” and the main character learns to crochet. Since I’m a beginner I can relate to her struggles. Thanks again
@@rebeccabuck8716 ohhhh, I’ll have to look this book up. Mysteries are my favorite 😂🧶

Hi there how are you doing
Thanks for the tip about adding the double crochet. Very helpful. 😇
So glad you found it useful! 🧶💕👏🏻
It's honestly hard to find a good video for making granny squares, but this video was easy to follow along and had really good tips and tricks.
Oh good! I’m glad it was understandable 🧶💕
Thank you sooooooooo much for the tutorial. I usually don’t follow along to these kinds of videos I’ll just watch and figure it out on my on but it’s so much easier to follow along thanks!!
So glad you found it helpful! 😀💕
I really need to try and let other crocheters know how much I despised doing granny squares until this tutorial came out. Now it is not a chore and the final squares are so beautiful!!! Do try this pattern if in past you have found yourself avoiding granny squares. 💕
Oh wow, I’m so glad that you enjoy doing granny squares now. Thank you for taking time to post 😀🧶💕
Absolutely genius idea I never ever flipped my squares and I have this project and wow does it make a difference no more wonky squares thank you so much great video.
I’m so happy to read this - glad it helped! 😀💕🧶
Thank you for this amazing video. I had no idea flipping was a thing. I’m new to crochet n I love how simple you explain it!!! Watched the whole video now going to make a granny square with you, Yay!! 😊🙌🏼🌸
Wonderful!! I’m so happy that you found it helpful! 💕💕 thank you
Thank you for this tutorial. I have finally figured out how to properly crochet a granny square.
Great, thank you ! 😀👏🏻
That is the best way to change colors I have ever seen, I wish I had known about that years ago.
Thank you 😀💕
I just wanna say thank you! I’m still a beginner. Started learning late August and was having so much trouble making granny squares. Last week I found this video and it’s so well explained! Already made one and it looks great. Thank you again, for sharing your knowledge with us ❤
I’m so glad the video helped 💕😀
I love your tutorial! Simple, easy to follow for beginners like myself. Thanks! Will be starting the granny rectangle now❤
Wonderful! 😀🙌🏻💕
Thankyou just discovered you. My granny squares have always been crooked. So pleased I can now do a straight square.
So happy to ready this 😀💕🧶
What a terrific teacher. So much fun learning.
So kind of you, thank you! 😀💕
Thanks to this video, I just completed a baby blanket! This was so super easy to make 💜
Awesome sauce!! I’m so glad! 😀💕
Loving the fine edges. Thank you so much for the tip with turning the work for every round! It does wonders for my project :D
I’m so glad you found it useful 😀💕
@@PlayHookywithMe Definately! I always found it difficult to find the corners on my granny squares, so I stopped making them, but it fits so nicely to my scarf
Happy Thanksgiving ! I have to admit that I am utterly addicted with the Granny Square for its nostalgic quality and versatility. In this video, I share how the infinity granny/rectangle is truly one of the easiest blankets you can make if you are a beginner. Limited counting and only chains/ double crochets are needed to whip this up. This is also a great "go to" if you are a seasoned crocheter wanting to get some stash busting done! Hope you enjoy the video and let's play some hooky! xx
Happy Thanksgiving!
@@trishbresolin8212 thank you, Trish! Hope you’re doing well xx
Zou u graag in het hollands vertaalheidhoren of onderaan zien dank u🇳🇱
I love all the things you do they are all beautiful and it looks so easy I'll be watching this again thank you so much for showing us
Thank you so much ❤️
Thank you so much! I just started recently and have not been able to understand how to make a granny square until I found this video! This is super cool!!!!
I’m so glad the video helped! 😀🧶🤗
I love the colors you've used with these granny's! I'm really impressed with that tip for making your granny square flips! I've always done it the other way and like you mentioned in your video it's not straight, it's kinda wavy. So now when I make granny squares I'm flipping!! Thanks for the great tip! I've never made a rectangle granny square either, so I'm gonna try my hand at doing both the traditional and the rectangular granny!! Love this video! So informative!! Thank you!!
Oh, that’s so great! I’m happy you found something helpful in the video , thanks for letting me know 😀💕
Best tutorial I have seen.
I’m on my 3rd blanket and loving it.
Thank you for making instructions very easy to follow ❤️
You are so welcome! Thank you for letting me know! x

Argh, frustrating, I know . 😂😖 Definitely not you ! Thanks for writing , I appreciate it! 💕💕
Thank you so much for the tutorial....ordered my yarn for this today, hopefully it will be here by Friday. I love the look of granny squares but HATE joining, so this is beyond perfect. Can't wait to get started....PS I did a 6" swatch and using your instructions it came out perfectly square. Thanks again.
Wonderful news! I hope you enjoy it! 💕
Great video - Love the flipping tip ! Never made a rectangle, I’ve made the regular granny square in the round and I’ve made granny square rows. Looking forward to a good stash buster ! new subscriber 👍
Awesome, thank you for subscribing! I look forward to playing hooky together! 🧶👏🏻
Hi! I'm an absolute beginner and your explanation is so clear i might give this a try. Thank you so much. That granny is beautiful
Oh that’s great news, thank you !
Thank you for making this tutorial super easy to follow and not going too fast when explaining!!
Thank you so very much for the missed stitch solution. It made my day !
So glad !
After all these years I finally know why it doesn’t crotchet straight!!! Flip it 🙌
😀👏🏻🧶
Just found your channel after dabbling with very basic crochet over the years...wanting to get back into it and this tutorial is just excellent. I don't want to be dramatic, but I can't tell you how thrilled I was to see how you hold your hook! I have never been able to hold mine any other way and I feel encouraged seeing you and your beautiful work. I look forward to trying the rectangle version of this when I get my yarn order. I've subscribed...😊
Not dramatic at all - I get excited when I come across people that hold it this way too 😆🙌🏻💕
Happy to have you here, thank you for subscribing!!
This is precisely what I was looking for! Thank you so much!! This was indispensable to the project I’m attempting to do!
I’m so glad 😀👏🏻💕
I watched a couple different videos and couldn't get it, this video helped me understand right away!! :)
So happy it helped 😀💕
This is the best tutorial I have seen. Wow teaching us so many new things!!! Thanks a lot for this video :)
Thank you 😀💕🧶
