Those wanting to join another colour, i joined mine at the slip stitch at the end of the round you will then turn your work and do your chain 2 at the start of your next round in your new colour...hope this helps, great tutorial BTW :)

This is exactly what I needed. Have been through many video tutorials trying to figure out how to make a continuous granny square to turn into a bag. Unfortunately I couldn’t understand her technique for the start of squares. I found this and I can see it exactly. You have clearly and patiently explained what to do. Thank you 🙏🏻 very much.🧶

I'm halfway through my blanket using this method. It is so much neater and holds its shape. Brilliant.

Today, March 9th, 2023, I began a baby blanket with your helpful pattern. I knew how to crochet a granny square but did NOT like the big holes and seams it created. However, I enjoy working on this specific one. I work on it in between other baby blanket patterns. I donate them to less fortunate mother's to be. It's most gratifying to have the availability to do so. Thanks very much! God bless you.

I've been crocheting over 40 years and it's always nice to learn new techniques for old patterns. Thank you so much. My Grannies look so much better now!

This gives me hope that I can achieve a nicely done granny square blanket. I've been avoiding them ever since I taught myself to crochet: about 6 years ago.
Thank you for a VERY easy explanation! Well done!

Thank you for this tutorial. You have solved all the problems I've had with granny square blankets in the past. This is now my go to pattern for the charity blankes I make. It works up beautifully with color changing cakes.

This is the nicest granny square. It's shocking that chaining 2 and slip stitching to corner makes it perfect. Thank you for this video. I searched for the perfect square. When I found this my searching was over.

It's been a very long time since I've done a granny square. I love the way you do it! This was an excellent review for me to start on a new blanket! Thank you for your excellent instruction.

I actually just bought yarn for an afghan to start for my great-grandson due in June. I have now decided to do a granny square and I love this tutorial. Timing is perfect and always thank you so much. Mary Ellen

This works great and I love that the stitches are close so your fingers and toes don’t poke through.

This is the best most concise tutorial on making a perfect simple Granny Square. I could not for the life of me figure out how to make one. I've watched lots of videos but could never complete the square correctly. THANK YOU so very much for this video!
