Hi Teresa, I just discovered your videos (I think they're great) and was wondering if you could help me with a problem. I've tried to make a large continuous traditional granny square afghan and the shape is completely lopsided. I've made granny square afghans from multiple squares and they've turned out fine but this one is a disaster. Help!
Teresa, I can't believe I have finally mastered the granny square. I have read books, over and over and my squares would look awful. Stumbled onto to your site on you tube and I am a "hooked" fan of yours. Thanks so much for doing such an amazing job with teaching!
Hi Teresa. My wife Melinda (Melsbasketcase on youtube) told me about your blog. We've been trying some of your granny squares and she showed me how to do a popcorn stitch based on your videos or blog.
I'm confused by something in this pattern though. In rounds 3-5 there are spots where it says to do "Ch 1, Ch 2". Is that the same as a Ch 3, or am I not picturing it correctly? I haven't tried completing it yet, just trying to picture it as I look at the instructions.
Thanks,
Rob
