Sewing Granny Squares 🪡🧵

Now that all my granny squares are done, I gotta sew em 🪡 I actually like this part it’s super soothing and gives my wrists and hands a little break 🥹😂

To connect my squares and without having the bump from the slip stitch, I started hand sewing the squares together on the ugly side. And then right after that I go head and weave the loose ends 🤭

Currently waiting on my other squares to dry from their blocking, but until that I’ll be sewing and working on some WIPs!

... Read moreSewing granny squares is a beloved craft technique that not only allows for beautiful creations but also offers a therapeutic experience. When you start sewing your granny squares, consider using the backside for stitching to avoid visible seams on the front. This method ensures a clean appearance and minimizes bumps. Don’t forget to weave in any loose ends to maintain the neatness of your project. Waiting for your squares to dry from blocking can be the perfect time to work on other WIPs (Works in Progress). Blocking is essential as it helps your granny squares to hold their shape and enhances the overall look of your final project. As you sew, think about the color combinations and patterns you're bringing together, and feel free to experiment! Join communities with hashtags like #imsewing or #blackcrocheter to connect with like-minded crafters and share your progress. Happy crafting!

This image introduces the topic of crocheting a granny square, showing three skeins of yarn in burnt orange, red, and brown, along with a crochet hook on a wooden background.
A hand holds red yarn, demonstrating the first step of Round 1 (R1) for a granny square, which is to chain 5 (CH5), with an arrow pointing to 'Chain 1'.
A hand demonstrates forming a circle in red yarn by slip stitching (SL ST) to CH1 and chaining 4 (CH4, indicating to work into this circle and add 3 double crochets (3DC).
Granny Squares for Babies?! 🤪
Someone asked for a breakdown on how to make a granny square. Check out below for abbreviations long worded. CH - chain DC - double crochet SLST - slip stitch One key advice to remember is to always change four at the beginning of the round. And then add your first 3DC in that same stitch.

Crochet Granny Squares! 🧶🪡
Hey, y’all! Here’s 2 different granny square concepts. My personal favorite is the second one, it is a more “closed” sort of square compared to the first. I think it looks cleaner as well. Let me know what you guys think, are you a traditionally girly or basic? 🫶🏻☺️ #crochet #crochetgrannysquar
