    Teresa, I must thank you for teaching me more than I’ve ever learned on my own. I took a project I learned from you to our county fair and I won a purple ribbon. Thanks from a happy fan, and please keep posting, your a great teacher.

    @pudbopoo11 When you are beginner, you will reduce your frustration by learning the beginning crochet stitches first before trying out a project. There is a pause and rewind on the video player

  8. tjw1963 says:

  9. 5happydays5 says:

    wow I never knew there were so many variations of granny squares! Your instructions are so easy to follow! is there any way you can please send me a playlist of each different crochet , like single, double , half double , and so forth…thank you so much for putting these videos out there for everyone!

  10. tjw1963 says:

    @Apricotic You are welcome! If you visit my profile, I have a lot of them in playlists. You will also find a playlist full of granny squares.

  11. Apricotic says:

    Thank you so much! This was exactly what I was looking for. You explained it perfectly and made it easy. I kept trying to follow this pattern I have and it made no sense at all. I could do yours without even looking at the stupid pattern now. Thanks again. I can’t wait to see your other videos.

    @incandescentsmile I have never been able to figure out knitting.

  13. incandescentsmile says:

    Is it me, or is knitting so much easier than crochet? I’ve been looking at video tutorials and reading tutorials all over and follow them as exactly as i can, and not once have i been able to get the granny square right!! I’m at my wit’s end with crochet.

  14. TheSwetoo says:

    Thanks for your videos. Even though I am the beginner I got the granny square perfectly. One quick question for you what is the kind of yarn you are using? Please give me the reply. Thank you.

  15. megancgary1 says:

    I have been trying to crochet for a long time, and this video is absolutely wonderful!!

  16. ashfr1 says:

    Hi, your crochet videos are excellent! I’ve never crocheted before but watched your loopy flower square tutorial 2 days ago and made a complete square the following day… It looked fab. I was wondering if maybe you could do a tutorial with the loopy flower on this traditional square? Many thanks Ashley

  17. dancer8164 says:

    Thank you SOO much for such a great tutorial. I just made my frist granny square and I’m so inspired to make a full afghan!

  18. DarkEmpress76 says:

    Words fail me to describe how EASY you have made crocheting for me Teresa!!! I knew how to crotchet just never how to start…. I now know what i am doing and feel confident to try some more beautiful crocheting videos you have uploaded!!
    Many MANY thanks and Blessings

    No matter how many times I try to do this pattern it NEVER turns out right. I’m very comfortable with SC and DC, chain stitches, etc. It either comes out as a circle with huge holes or a lop-sided square. Very frustrating :-(

    Ne pis tırnaklı kadın yaaa, insan bir manikur yaptirir. Migdem bulandi yemin ederim. Nereyide acsam bu tirnaklar cikiyor karsima.

  21. ZombieGorePrincess says:

    BUH!! the sound of the yarn rubbing the chrochet needle gave me chills. haha!

  23. tjw1963 says:

    @amsantana86 A lopsided square may have to do with missing corner increase stitches. Possibly missing a set of stitches on the side, which will make one side smaller than the others.

  24. amsantana86 says:

    I’ve made two afghans for family but they both came out lopsided, what am i doing wrong?? Your videos are very helpful but I just don’t know what I’m doing so wrong.. Please help

  25. traveligmama says:
