Looking at this option I thought of placemats! I’ve done a number of your blankets and now I always turn…like you I don’t really need to but I like the visual texture of seeing how the stitch looks on both sides with the extra bonus of it being reversible….but I will make it rectangle. I keep going back to your channel, working my way though your videos, while I am crocheting. Your voice is so nice to listen to and I’ve picked up a lots of tips and ,like this one, it’s given me an idea for another project for Christmas gifts. Thank you so very much. Bye 💁🏼♀️
This Canadian gal just starting making this beauty in a cherry red color & white for contrast & it's so gorgeous. I'm going to make this about 42x42" & make it into a lovey. I like this stitch so much better than the regular granny as there are very minimal holes. Since I'm not good at making animals I'll attach a small stuffed one to the center like I have in the past & it will be lovely. I think I'll attach a white monkey with floppy arms & legs as I have a few on hand for special items. Thanks again for another great tutorial. Stay healthy & safe darlin
Lovely alternative granny square pattern. Will be doing this when the wool arrives to make a throw for my sofa to protect it from the sun. I found that it worked better with a chain 1 in the corners and it made it squarer than a chain 2 in the corners.
I'm having a similar problem, my square has a "waist", it measures narrower across the middle than the outer edges -- I may try your chain 1 in the corners instead. Thank you!
How pretty! I have never seen this before! I needed something different. I was suffering crocheters block. I start things but don’t finish because the projects look like the same old same ol. Thanks! You’re a life saver!,,
I love this stitch. I do love doing a traditional GS BUT I do not like the holes, especially for babies. This resolves that issue. Thank you for sharing this.
Lovely square Rebekah thank you I really like how it’s a mix of the traditional open and solid grannies I think it would make a beautiful blanket 😊Amanda xx💕
Thank you I love doing continuous granny blankets. Please keep the pattern’s coming. Love all your tutorials. I have trouble keeping edges straight on other blankets
Thank you so much for this tutorial It's been difficult for me to learn the stitch and you make it so simple! Know I'm a little late, but just wanted to say ty.... Read more..... Rly love these videos
I am new to your channel. I love this version of the granny square. Very pretty. Thanks for showing it. Excited to see all of your beautiful creations.
I find the enormous variety of granny square designs overwhelming and have been trying to settle on a small stable of versatile, interesting, easy to memorize designs. This one is perfect! And the first “keeper” in said stable. Lol
Lovely thank you very much, will certainly try this one out. Thank you very much also for UK terminology, take care and safe. Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Thankyou Rebekah for all your tutorials and I have done quite a few of them, all absolutely beautiful and so easy to follow.. I love this solid granny square it’s not only a lovely pattern but I love how there’s not so many holes as the traditional granny .. I want to use your joining method ( the one with the pink granny square and grey border ) do you think it should be ok .. Thankyou again for all you show us, absolutely beautiful work . 💯 ♥️🧶🌈🤗🌺
Thank you ,, I am about to finish one square, I used cream and a mauve/pink yarn and it looks lovely.. The yarn I used is just a bit rough ( not to soft ), maybe steam blocking might fix that, but today I’ve purchased a much softer yarn which is a 10 ply and crotchets up beautifully and it’s squishy soft .. Thankyou again Rebekah My daughters name is Rebecca/( Becky sometimes 😊) too ( different spelling ,, I love that name too ❤ Have a lovely week 🙏🤍
Absolutely gorgeous and so simple to do. The effect of the spike is better with two rows of color. Thank You for sharing. Quick question, instead of doing the chain three, can I do a standing tr ?
What a beautiful stitch! Could I use this stitch for a cushion cover? If so would I do single crochet row followed by a single crochet to join the two sides together. Thanks.
I am currently making your spike granny square and it is coming along beautifully. I was wondering if you could share a rectangular spike granny pattern? It is how to start it that confuses me.
Wow! This is so beautiful- thank you! I am new to crochet having been a knitter for over 50 years. This will be my third crochet blanket project - the yarn you are using is gorgeous, and the colours are perfect together - can I ask what it is?
Hello, I just posted a similar question. I also am having the same problem with getting it to lay flat. I thought it might be my tension so I started again and I had the same issues. I wanted to make it into a blanket for a friend and I loved the way the stitch was looking, but I don’t love the fact that it doesn’t lay flat! 🤦🏻♀️
I have seen this question asked several times with no response ...I can't get it to lay flat . I'm 12 rows in and I've tried several things to try and get it to lay flat ... I went UP a hook size, I'm making sure that my spike stitch is pulled up high enough to avoid pulling , I even tried adding a chain in between the clusters and nothing has helped . Obviously it must be the nature of the stitch since so many people are having the same issue , it's annoying that it doesn't lay flat but it looks so beautiful I do not want to rip it out or stop , I'm hoping when I add a boarder it may help it . Can you please comment on this issue .
I really like being able to bring a more modern look to the age of tradition of granny squares
Since there are no holes, this will be great for wheelchair lap afghans. Thank you so much for again sharing a great crochet pattern! :)

You are so welcome! That’s such a lovely comment.
Yes I think that joining method would work wonderfully 🌸♥️

Hiya Rebekah what a great stich will deffently be having a go at this for a baby blanket but already dreading sewing in my tails ☹☘☘
Love it! ❤️ Thank you!
Muy buen video. Felicidades.!!!
Luv it!!!!!!
Love this thank you 😊
I love stitches like this where you carry a stitch to a previous row. I wonder if this granny spike could work on the granny rectangle??
Beautiful
Absolutely gorgeous and so simple to do. The effect of the spike is better with two rows of color. Thank You for sharing. Quick question, instead of doing the chain three, can I do a standing tr ?
Yes absolutely you can ☺️
What a beautiful stitch! Could I use this stitch for a cushion cover? If so would I do single crochet row followed by a single crochet to join the two sides together. Thanks.
I am currently making your spike granny square and it is coming along beautifully. I was wondering if you could share a rectangular spike granny pattern? It is how to start it that confuses me.
Very beautiful square, i think i'll go for a blanket. What is the first color you use when you start the tutorial?
Wow! This is so beautiful- thank you! I am new to crochet having been a knitter for over 50 years. This will be my third crochet blanket project - the yarn you are using is gorgeous, and the colours are perfect together - can I ask what it is?
Beautiful stitch. But I really want to know what your secret is to not going front to back on your granny squares to keep from twisting.
Hello, I just posted a similar question. I also am having the same problem with getting it to lay flat. I thought it might be my tension so I started again and I had the same issues. I wanted to make it into a blanket for a friend and I loved the way the stitch was looking, but I don’t love the fact that it doesn’t lay flat! 🤦🏻♀️
loved the tutorial have one question if you only do the spike stitch on straight side, what do you do on the opposite side?
How do you crochet so that your granny squares don’t twist if you don’t turn on every round (as you mentioned in the video)?
I have seen this question asked several times with no response ...I can't get it to lay flat . I'm 12 rows in and I've tried several things to try and get it to lay flat ... I went UP a hook size, I'm making sure that my spike stitch is pulled up high enough to avoid pulling , I even tried adding a chain in between the clusters and nothing has helped . Obviously it must be the nature of the stitch since so many people are having the same issue , it's annoying that it doesn't lay flat but it looks so beautiful I do not want to rip it out or stop , I'm hoping when I add a boarder it may help it . Can you please comment on this issue .
ya!
