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.

What a lovely shot. I imagine you spotted this in a lovely country walk? #musundayphoto
ReplyDeleteIt was at the local oval :o) It's not used much as an oval any more but is a favourite dog walking spot.
Deletesuch a lovely shot. wattle is one of my fave flowers. and the smell is so evocative of my younger days camping in the bush. i can always tell one of your photos stella from amongst the many on darren's blog page! it is usually of an aussie animal or flower and always lovely.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had such lovely memories of wattle as you. For me it is the harbinger of hay fever. It is ever so pretty though.
