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.

DeleteWhat a sweet collection on pet portraits
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking up
I bet you can tell which were phone shots and which was the camera shot with a nice lens.
DeleteIs Magnus a Shar-pei? I ask because of all the wrinkles.
ReplyDeletePoor Geri, mourning her best friend, while battling cancer.
I'm so glad Magnus has brought y'all such joy!
Magnus is an English Staffy who hasn't grown into his skin yet :o) Magnus has really helped her feel happier I think. She's doing very well with her metronomic treatments.
DeleteMagnus is a little bundle of cuteness! He has a look of mischief in his eyes, but smart, too... Geri better make a quick recovery so she can help teach him the rules!
ReplyDeleteOMG, the cuteness doesn't stop. He is smart too, smarter then his Aunty Geri has ever been. Geri is responding very well to treatments and on her first vet check-up 2 weeks after starting her chemo tablets there has already been a reduction in the tumor. The stats were not in her favour but we continue to hope.
DeleteShe gave Magnus a lick last night for the first time and they are playing together. It's just great.
He is pure love already. He is adorable! Showing such content, he must be spoiled beyond control! I am so sorry for you loss and completely understand the empty feeling. Magnus is the filling your void and so worth it. I hope Geri triumphs her treatments. Please keep us updated.
ReplyDeleteAw, that is one good looking puppy. Hope the two get along and are the kind of companions you want them to be!
