I couldn’t think of anything to crochet, so I decided to just do granny squares. I did a few different ones, because I thought just working a regular square would be boring. I did learn doing different stitches even though you are using the same five count, the size doesn’t come out the same, and then you have to add an extra row to make up the difference.

I am going to post a few granny squares. These ladies know what they are doing, and I have learned a few new stitches from each of them. If it’s about crochet it could be on their site, so have fun looking through what they already have posted.

Joining Squares Idea in Crochet | Zigzag Slip Stitch Method | Embroidery Inspired Lyza Walters   Mar 11, 2020

I started joining my squares together as I started watching videos for my online traveling post. I may have stopped working on that post, I don’t feel like stopping crocheting, so I am going to watch one of my favorite amines and enjoy my first day off in five days. (I was trying to add the words to each video, but the words wouldn’t copy as I liked. I still don’t like computers to try to figure out how to fix it)

Time for a glass of water before I get back to having some crochet fun!!

A New Project…

I cannot believe I lost my favorite crochet needle once again. I even bought two extra ones. I also cannot. I am actually working on a granny square blanket, which I am putting it together, and enjoying this new stitch.

Here are a few youtube sites I like:

  5. https://youtu.be/Ob8IVq_KJVk

#4 & #5 are not within this project, but I have done those squares into full size blankets.

I learned a different way to connect the squares together and I can not go back to how I was doing it before. I may not be doing it like the video, but I am very close to it. I am making a knot at the start and end of these stitches. (I wouldn’t want to get a review saying how their blanket came apart after a few washes, but this is just me)
