YES YOU ARE A GREAT TEACHER

AND YOUR SQUARE LOOKS GREAT

AND MINE LOOK BAD UGLY

AND THANK YOU FOR ALL THE GOOD WORK

[tjw1963]

@marialuisaponce18 You are being to hard on yourself. We are all critical of our as we are making it. If you are a beginner, it is part of learning. Your stitch tension will get better as you practice. The more you practice, the better you get. Thank you for your kind words.

[TheTmpratt]

WOW! I'm a beginner and you go step by step all the way around!!!! thank you I was successful with this Granny square!

[tjw1963]

@TheTmpratt You are doing great to conquer this square being a beginner!

I was trying to work this with the written instructions and having a hard time with rnd 2 Round 2. Ch 3, 2 DC, CH 2; 3DC, CH2, 3DC, CH2 in next space, repeat two more times. For last corner shell, CH 1 and SC join to beginning CH3. Cut the yarn, secure and change color.

should be ch 1 between the corner shells and the start should be CH 3, 2 DC in the beg CH SP as it is looks like (Ch 3, 2 DC, CH 2; 3DC, CH2, 3DC, CH2 ) should go in every chain 2 space.

@TheUrsalina What is your question? I am confused!

[917hollie]

ive just finished this and ive impressed my self that much i even posted you a picture on your facebook page lol

[nooooot]

but the way Teresa how would it look like if I work with a smaller hook and thread (or lace or whatever you call it I'm not a native speaker so it's a thread to me, and I mean by thread the one you use for the needle holder elegant motif !!!)

@marialuisaponce18 try changing the colors too because I don't like the original one on the afgan but I loved the one that Teresa just made and it's aaaaalll because of the colors and as she said your stitch will improve via crocheting very often (that was what hapened with me too) so no worries my dear and good luck with more crocheting

Teresa you're awsome your granny square variation is just killing me and I don't have enough to make them all :( but thx a lot :)

[nooooot]
