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.

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! 😊

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

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. ❤

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

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

It's a much tighter/tidier look than the peyote/brick pattern of a typical granny square. I really love it! Thank you!

I'm so grateful for the tutorials you make. You are a good teacher🤗

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 😺

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.

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 😍
