Crafting a sweater or blanket with granny squares can seem daunting for a beginner But dont be discouraged - its an adventure waiting to be explored!
Start with this easy throw pillow made with two large granny squares and a single crochet border to join them together
We think this project offers an amazing chance to make a daring and bold color combination! You can alternate colors, use blocks, make an ombré design, or even craft a rainbow
We used a mix of neons, pastels and jewel tones as a tribute to the three crochet kit colorways
For this project, make sure to pick a hook size that matches the thickness of your yarn; we suggest a 5mm Size H hook
Constructing two big granny squares is the main part of this project If youre new to crocheting them, watch this video tutorial and follow the pattern (at the article link at the final)
To achieve a seamless look, make sure the pillow insert is almost the same size as the granny squares If youd like to use different color patterns for the two, end both with the same color
Once your squares are finished, its time to join them! Place one on top of the other with the wrong sides facing each other
Join two squares with a single crochet stitch Choose a border yarn color, attach it to your hook with a slip-knot, and get ready to create it
If you want a seamless border, use the same yarn as the last row of both your squares To make a slipknot with Omegacryl, pull from both the interior and exterior tails
Line up the two squares you want to join, with the right side of the fabric facing outwards Insert your crochet hook into the corner space of the first square and use a single crochet stit
Pull the hook up through the corner space of the second square, creating a loop, then pull it up again to form another loop
