Learn how to create a seam free, single sided Crochet Granny square for perfect results every time.
The humble Granny Square is the crochet staple of Nanna's everywhere, which is how it came to be known as a 'Granny Square'. Originally it was just called a crochet square.
The Granny Square is often the very first thing we are taught when learning to crochet, so it would follow that it would be simple to have a perfect square every time and those new to crochet often get discouraged when this is not the case.
However, to get a perfect square actually requires a bit of experience, good fundamentals and advanced row starting techniques, otherwise you are left with seams, the reverse side of stitches showing every second row or even a slight spiral effect.
This granny square is made without turning your work and has a right and a wrong side.

ReplyDeleteI think that is the nicest thing anyone has ever said about my photos. Thank you.
DeleteTotally stunning, the contrast with the background colour is perfect.
ReplyDeleteThank you. This was my first time trying to take shots outside in the dark so I'm pretty pleased they worked at all.
DeleteLovely. Just lovely! I am always scared of flash. In this photo flash really helped a lot. Again can I just say, lovely!!!

It was outside in the dark, it was my only option. I'm glad it worked out because I've never tried to do that before.
DeleteI know we're not supposed to use flash with flowers but this looks lovely :)
ReplyDeleteReally? I didn't know that rule. It's a night flower and this was around midnight so not a lot of options really.
DeleteThat is just beautiful!
