My New Favorite Continuous Granny Square! So Easy 😍 Plus Rectangle Option 

For a continuation of doing this with the work facing you always, I have been doing a join-as-you-go technique. I do a sc instead of the last chain in a corner to arrive in the middle of the corner and then do half the work of the next round initial corner to begin the round and end it with the second half of the corner and a sc to take the place of the last chain of the round. So in the first row of the granny square, you usually have chain of so many spaces and slip stitches in the first chain 3 of the first cluster of stitches. Instead of doing this, I just do one less chain between the last and first cluster and then the single crochet in the first chain three spot. Then chain the number for the next row because you are already in the right place for the second part of this corner. Do the rest of the row instructions from the second half of the first corner, in the pattern here, the second single crochet and onwards around to the last chain 3 and sc into the same space that you started in, chain the amount you are doing in the corners except for the last stitch do as a single crochet into the first single crochet of the row. Then it would be the chain for the next row as you go along. In this case it would be the taller ones. Good luck. I hope this is clear. The comment is being made on a small screen.

No one does tutorial videos better than you. This is a great look for a granny square. Thank you so much for taking the time to do these videos for us!

Holy heavens is your voice sooooo soothing. My chaotic brain says thank you for such concise tutorials

I'm so glad I found you here! ❤️ I've crocheted 50 yrs and always love new and easy patterns. Your teaching is so calming. And your work is beautiful! 😊

Fabulous tutorial. Said I wasn't going to start a new project but off I go. Thank you

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for - a rectangular tutorial to use to make placemats! Like you, I'm really very fond of variegated yarn and use it a lot. Your rectangular sample is beautiful! I'll just be using two colours of blue but I think they're going to be lovely done in this new continuous Granny stitch! THANK YOU SO MUCH for putting this video together for us! I really appreciate kind folks passing on all the wonderful stitches & tips they come across! This is a definite keeper! Thank you again! 👍😃

I love this pattern and it's so easy to do. I needed something different from the traditional granny square. ❤

Love this!! Perfect for baby blanket starting soon. Thank you !!!♥️

I like your old method of your granny square and your rectangle granny square tutorial.

Happy Sunday to you Roz and thanks for today's tutorial. You are speaking my language today because I love working with variegated yarn for the same reasons as you no joining or ends to weave In. I also love the elongated version as well . As always great lesson with a wonderful ending of my baby BISCUIT staking his claim. Where is his brother ? can't remember his name , but you can give them both a cuddle for me . Have a great day and a blessed week ahead God bless 🙌

LOVE your tutorials, you are a great teacher! And your calming voice makes it so much enjoyable! Thank you and Kitty 😺

Thanks so much for this lovely tutorial.🌹 I enjoy working on projects like this, so my next one will be the rectangle. I will be going for a large centerpiece for our dining table 😍

Love this version of the granny square. I think I’ll add two more sides and turn this into a hexagon to make a hexi cardigan.

So beautiful! As soon as I’m done with my project I’m going to start this afghan.

I like this way better than the granny squares I was doing before. Thank you for the great, easy to follow tutorial!

OMG! I'm in love with this stitch/pattern! I'm actually using it for my temperature blanket, a baby blanket ATM. It may be the only granny square/stitch I ever use again. Thank you for this great idea and tutorial.

Thank you so much for sharing very pretty.

Thank you for an informative tutorial. 🙂

😊 Thank you, this is a great, no brainers. At my age that's all I can handle. I'm officially a new subscriber. ❤❤❤

I love your cats. They are so cute!😺😺❤❤

Loved your vídeo. Very objective. Sure I will do this Pp project for baby blanket 😊😊😊

Excellent tutorial thank you 💜🇬🇧

Ahh yeah! I was going to ask you how you did a modern granny without twisting, and here it is. That’s a beautiful yarn ❤. These also make beautiful shrugs

New subscriber. This video popped up on my feed and I love it. I've been looking for a pattern to use to make my new grandbaby a blanket. This one is perfect. I've watched tutorials from a lot of different channels and yours are the most detailed that I've found.

Me too love this granny square... Gonna make right now after I watch you video a few times😅❤❤❤❤

Omg Arcane my all time favorite yarns!❤

Hi! This looks beautiful. I want to try this as a new lapghan for the seniors. They request the least amount of holes in blankets to keep warm. Thank you for this tutorial. I’ll probably add one of your beautiful borders that I use for your JAYG blankets. Be well and be safe.

I've been looking for a pattern that I can use to make larger squares. This works wonderfully - thank you!

Brilliant! Thank you!!! 😘❤️🌹

Oh the yarn is beautiful. I wonder if we could get it in the uk 🇬🇧 Thank you so much for the tutorial 😘

I don’t usually like the granny square but your rectangle pattern looks very interesting. I’m going to try that for my next baby blanket. Thank you for the video.

This granny square project is Kitty approved 😂. Thank you for sharing your skills with us. Love from Texas

My 1st one was perfect. Thank you

Beautiful

Nice thank you

Cool! Thanks

When I first saw the notification I read the title as ‘my favorite contagious granny square’ 😂❤ and that yarn is beautiful.

Love and enjoy your channel 😊😊😊😊😊

Thanks so much for this tutorial...although I had to slow down the playback to keep up with you (I'm a beginner). I think the continuous square looks so much better than the traditional square.

This looks cool.

I'm making both 😊

Good morning 🌄🌞 blessings ☕ awesome 👍🏾

OMG your cat looks and sounds just like like mine, when he/she meowed near the end I thought it was mine! 😻

Love you so much

Your videos are amongst the very best out there. Congrats! I would love to see a link to the printed version of this pattern to a valid stopping and starting the video. Many thanks!

Love it i love it 😅

project made better by kitty endorsement ;) I often crochet while watching youtube videos (even if using a different pattern) and find your tutorials informative and easy to follow. (ATM using your alternating directions granny blanket - still yet to create ravelry project pages for the completed one and the one I'm working on now)

Yay🎉. Another crochet tutorial from a fellow cat person

Thanks for this tutorial. I frequently buy variegated yarn because it looks “pretty” in the store but once I put it away I don’t know why I bought it 😂.
