Materials & Tools

Gauge & Size

Your final size will depend on your yarn and hook size. If you want to use these squares for a project I advise measuring your first square and maintaining that tension or your pattern won’t align when joining.

You can make these in any colour way, I have made a reversible crochet cushion using Champagne white for the heart and then washed teal and pale pink for the contrast colour. Before you sew your cushion together you will need to sew in all your ends. With the right side facing you, clip the two granny squares around the cushion insert using your binding clips. Granny stitch together. When you reach the corner space you will crochet 3 treble crochets, chain 3, and 3 tr in the corner space.

    I love this! Is there any chance of a left-handed video? I LOVE your videos, but I can’t seem to follow along with the right-handed ones.

    I love you heart granny square! How do I go about to make this square into a blanket? I am a beginner in crochet and taught myself as I suffer from anxiety. This would be a great project for me to accomplish!
