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.

I love those etched Merry Christmas plates, that's such a good idea and the glittery DIY ornaments too - I'm already in the mood for Christmas! So glad to be back and contributing this week too, I have missed it. Thanks for hosting! - Tasha
ReplyDeleteI can't believe Christmas is almost upon us, I'm not ready yet!
DeleteMe either, it's all going too fast! Thank you for the lovely comments on my first post back too. About switching to WP - nothing wrong essentially with blogger but I've been having some technical issues with spam links etc. and I was planning on switching to something new with a new name come 2017 - I'll still be blogging the same way and things, and will be joining in with these link-ups but just trying something new. I still love blogger :) Also, has there been any news on HDML 132? - Tasha
DeleteStella, I don't see how you do all you do! I'll go over and check out the ship's website.
ReplyDeleteThose glitter ornaments are fab! And the color block ones are pretty in pink!
Finally, I have a post I can contribute again!! YAY!!
I'm so pleased to have you join in the party fun =D
DeleteThe ship's website is amazing, Stella! To put all that together in so little time, you are truly talented... Or you have super-powers.
ReplyDelete*And* you still host this great party, too! Yup, you must have super-powers ;) Thank you for all your work!
It's been some very long days I must admit. This party happens because Sarah is AMAZING.
