ive been trying for MONTHS to learn a simple granny square, and this one was the first video i was able to watch without getting frustrated AND finish while following along. thank you so much! i cant wait to make more of these in more colors 🤗

I’m gonna have to rewatch this with every square 😂

I dont know if anyone said this yet, but for a cleaner look for the heart, crochet the square in the back loops of the heart, that way you get the heart outline

[evelinapushkash]

I decided to finally learn to crochet tonight and I picked your video as my first ever attempt and I'm shocked to say, it's a recognisable heart shape and the overall shape is more or less a square. I'm thanking you from the bottom of my crochet heart ahah❤

Tried doing my first granny square as a beginner crocheter, and this video was slow and easy to follow!! I tried following other videos, but this one was the easiest for me to follow and my granny squared turned out great! Thank you!

Did you notice the smiley face in the heart. Loved it. I used a majic circle and raised the heart by using the third loop

[saintcupd]

Guys it took me two tries but I finally got it perfectly!! I used stitch markers (you can also use paper clips with different colors) and that’s when I got it down perfectly.

Don’t be discouraged!! If another human can do it, so can you. You got this 💕

Here's a tip
At my first attempt, the heart came out curling inwards and looking like a blob. But then I tried this:
So basically in the second round of the heart after crocheting the 8 treble stitches, instead of doing one double crochet in each of the next 2 stitches, do 2 double crochets in each of them (which adds up to 4 double crochets in total)
This way your heart won't curl like that.
But pay attention to the next rounds in the square. I personally did 3 treble crochet (in separate stiches) and then "2 tc, chain 2, 2 tc" all in the same stitch. (So that I have crocheted inside every new stitch that I have made)
Or you can mix the first 2 treble crochets and do the third one normally
It will also affect the second square round.
It's a GREAT tutorial btw❤❤❤
Hope this helps❤
