0:01
better way to celebrate that with some
0:03
heart granny squares use them for
0:05
blankets scarves and much much more so
0:08
I'm going to be using some paint box
0:10
Aaron simply Aaron yarn to make my
0:13
squares today but you can use any yarn
0:14
you like just match your hook size with
0:18
the one recommended on the yarn ball
0:19
band I'm going to be using a 5mm hook
0:22
today so we're going to start with a
0:28
hook and we're going to start making a
0:30
granny square as normal so we'll chain
0:34
four and then join that
0:38
first chain to form a ring with a slip
0:43
stitch then we're going to chain three
0:45
this counts as our first double crochet
0:47
and then we're going to start working
0:49
into the ring so you're going to put two
0:51
double crochets into the ring
1:02
and chain two for our Corner space then
1:16
ring chain two for the next Corner then
1:23
crochet into the ring
1:32
chain two for that corner and again
1:43
ring and then we'll have a chain two
1:47
last last corner and then join with a
1:50
slip stitch to the top of that chain
1:54
three now for our next round we're going
1:56
to be staying with this mustard color so
1:59
I'm going to put a slip stick Stitch
2:05
Stitch and then into the
2:08
corner then going to chain
2:11
three and this again counts as a double
2:15
crochet so we're in this corner space
2:17
I'm going to put two more double crochet
2:26
two and then as it's the corner three
2:29
double crochet into the same
2:39
space now I'm going to go ahead and do
2:41
exactly the same in each of the
2:43
remaining three corners so in the next
2:45
Corner three double crochet chain two
2:48
three double crochet and you do that in
2:49
each of the corners and then we're going
2:51
to join with the slip stitch to that top
2:55
three and just like the previous round
2:58
we're going to slip stitch across
3:00
until we get to that corner space so
3:02
slip stitch in the next two
3:05
stitches into that corner
3:08
space so this is the round where we're
3:10
going to be doing the color work so if
3:12
you look at this Square here we are just
3:15
about to start this corner here so we're
3:17
going to stay in the same color for this
3:19
corner so we'll chain
3:25

3:28
space chain two and then three double
3:33

3:36

3:47
first part of that Stitch there so the
3:50
the last yarn over and pulling through
3:52
two I'm just going to leave that because
3:53
we're going to be changing color as you
3:55
can see on this Square here we've just
4:00
and this space along the side so the
4:03
next corner is going to be in our
4:08
simply lay the new color over the hook
4:11
and just pull that through to finish off
4:15
crochet now I'm going to be carrying the
4:17
yarn across so you want to take the the
4:22
mustard hold it to the corner don't pull
4:25
it too tightly because otherwise you're
4:30
and then we're going to put a double
4:32
crochet into that corner
4:38
space followed by two more double
4:44
crochet chain two and then three double
4:55
two and if you look here again we're
4:57
going to be changing back to the
5:02
color so for that third double crochet
5:05
I'll just work the first part of the
5:07
Stitch like so then we'll just let go of
5:12
cream pick the mustard back up and
5:17
off and then we're going to carry this
5:19
cream color across to the next
5:22
space and we're going to put the three
5:24
double crochet into that space and I'm
5:36
on and again we're going to be changing
5:39
color for the next corner so we're going
5:40
to let go of that mustard and finish off
5:46
Stitch with a new color and then we'll
5:49
carry the mustard across to this corner
5:51
and then we're going to work our Corner
5:52
as normal so that's three double
5:57
crochet into that corner a
6:04
two and then another three double
6:06
crochet all into the same
6:16
space Oh we need to be changing back to
6:18
the next color so let me just pull that
6:20
back so we need to finish off that last
6:28
mustard carry the cream across make sure
6:30
you work over it so it's three double
6:41
space and we're going to carry this
6:44
across to the corner and work our Corner
6:48
normal so that's three double
7:00
and another three double
7:10
oops and on this last Stitch we're going
7:12
to be changing color again so we're
7:14
going to drop the mustard pick up the
7:17
cream finish that Stitch
7:19
off carry the mustard
7:22
across three double crochet into the
7:24
next space working over that mustard
7:32
and I'm going to change back to the
7:33
mustard on this last Stitch just so that
7:35
I'm joining with the same color so we
7:37
drop the cream take up the
7:41
mustard and join with the slip stitch to
7:48
three now the next round is going to be
7:50
worked entirely in the cream
7:54
yarn so we want to carry that across to
7:58
the next corner to start our next round
8:01
so I'm just going to slip stitch with
8:03
the mustard into the next Stitch but I'm
8:09
yarn the one slip stitch and then this
8:13
time you want the yarn to be
8:15
underneath and slip stitch and now I'm
8:18
going to fasten off the mustard
8:35
and we're going to pick up with that
8:36
cream put your hook into the corner grab
8:39
that yarn pull it around to the other
8:47
three and then we're going to work our
8:49
Corner as normal so it's two more double
9:00
and then three double
9:08
corner now as we go around we can pick
9:11
up some of those floats on the back to
9:14
make them a little bit more tidy so I'll
9:16
show you how to do that on this round so
9:18
in the next space we're going to put
9:28
crochet and in the following space Also
9:38
crochet we're going to work this corner
9:41
normal three double crochet chain two
9:59
so now when you look on the back here
10:01
you can now start to see this is where
10:02
you'll start to see the
10:04
floats so we're going to put three
10:07
double crochet in this next space so I'm
10:09
going to put the hook in the space have
10:11
a look and then you'll see where that
10:13
float is there and I'm just going to
10:14
catch that and crochet over that that's
10:25
three and the next one you can see
10:30
you got this mustard float
10:32
here so I'm going to put my hook in
10:35
going to go under that mustard float and
10:44
crochet this just makes it a bit neater
10:47
so that if you want to use this for a
10:48
blanket or or something that's more
10:51
double-sided you're not going to have
10:52
all these floats hanging around on the
10:54
back so we're just going to work the
10:56
next Corner as normal three double
10:58
crochet chain two three double
11:16
crochet so you're going to continue
11:18
around each time you find these floats
11:21
here you're just going to work over
11:22
those as well so each time you get to
11:25
chain space along the sides it's three
11:27
double crochet and each time you get to
11:29
the corner it's three double crochet
11:31
chain two three double
11:33
crochet and once you get to the end join
11:36
as usual with a slip stitch to the top
11:38
of that chain three and then you can
11:40
fasten up and there you have your really
11:42

11:45
