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.

Parties will go live on the 3rd Friday of each month.
Remember, every pin gets repinned no matter when it is linked up.
Each co-host will choose their top 4 favourite pins from throughout the month to feature and there will be no most or last features, so everyone has an equal chance of being selected as a favourite no matter when they link up.
Bejewelled Fringe Pin
The fringe pin - aka Diane pin, chignon pin - differs from the ripple pin as it has little bumps along the prongs to aid in gripping the hair.
