Granny Square Pattern Easy is a cute crochet pattern.
You can make it very easy for blankets, shawls, scarves, cardigans.
Аnd what is important you can do even if you are a beginner.
So, for this square I used two colors.
Of course, you can make it in your favorite combination.
So, I used:
- acrylic sport yarn (yellow and green)
- Hook 4 mm (G/6)
So, if you use sport yarn, the dimensions of the granny square you will get are:
9.5 cm X 9.5 cm (3.74 in X 3.74 in)
Granny Square Pattern Easy (US terms):
The abbreviations in the pattern:
- sl st – slip stitch
- ch – chain
- sc – single crochet
- dc – double crochet
First, the pattern has 5 rounds.
So, START with yellow yarn, ch 4 and make a ring with 1 sl st in the first chain from the hook.
Then continue round 1 and round 2 again with yellow yarn.
Round 1: ch 1 and make 8 sc in the ring.
Then, finish round 1 with 1 sl st in the first sc from the beginning of the round.
Round 2: work in each of the 8 sc as shown in the list:
- ch 6 (counts as 1 dc+ch 3), 1 dc in the very first sc
- 1 dc in the next sc, ch 1, 1 dc in the same sc (2nd sc)
- 1 dc in the next sc, ch 3, 1 dc in the same sc (3rd sc)
- 1 dc in the next sc, ch 1, 1 dc in the same sc (4th sc)
- 1 dc in the next sc, ch 3, 1 dc in the same sc (5th sc)
- 1 dc in the next sc, ch 1, 1 dc in the same sc (6th sc)
- 1 dc in the next sc, ch 3, 1 dc in the same sc (7th sc)
- 1 dc in the next sc, ch 1, 1 dc in the same sc (8th sc)
So, to finish round 2, make 1 sl st in the 3rd ch from the beginning of the round.
Continue with Round 3 with green yarn.
So, begin Round 3 with ch 3 and 2 dc in the upper right side around any ch-3 space.
Then, repeat (ch 1, 3 dc around the next ch-1 space, ch 1, 3 dc around the next ch-3 space, ch 3, 3 dc around the same ch-3 space) 3 times.
So, continue with ch 1, 3 dc around the next ch-1 space, ch 1, 3 dc around
the next ch-3 space, ch 3.
Finally, 1 sl st in the third chain from the beginning of round.
Continue with Round 4 with yellow yarn.
So, begin Round 4 with ch 3 and 2 dc around any ch-3 space in the upper right side.
Then repeat (3 dc around next ch-1 space, 3 dc around next ch-1 space, 3
dc around next ch-3 space, ch 3, 3 dc around the same ch-3 space) 3 times.
Then make 3 dc around next ch-1 space, 3 dc around next ch-1 space, 3 dc around next ch-3 space, ch 3.
Finally, 1 sl st in the third ch from beginning of round.
Continue with Round 5 with green yarn.
So, simply crochet sc border around the square.
This round is optional.
Of course, you can choose another border.
