OTH Classic Granny Square

This is the easiest Granny Square you will ever make.

It's perfect for beginners and perfect a crocheter that has NEVER made a Granny Square before.

The pattern is repetitive, making it a mindless crochet project and perfect to watch TV and crochet!

If you search basic or classic Granny Square this one will be top of the search.

This is also a perfect square to make into a blanket, just keep working up row after row until it reaches the size you want.  Great for a beginner blanket!

I have a FULL VIDEO TUTORIAL on how to make this square and the written pattern is below.

 

Are you ready?

Let's make it!
