I am a beginning crocheter, and I LOVE your videos, they are so easy to follow! But I have a question. Can I complete this Granny square using the same yarn through out the whole square? If so, how do I go from the center circle of double crochets (yours is green) to the next part (yours is white)?!

@bigmama1261 hello....instead of cutting your yarn complete your circle and then chain up three ...then work two more double crochet into the same hole under the chain 3....same thing in the video only you dont cut you yarn...then continue around following the tutorial...hope that helps Cathy@The Crochet Crowd Helpdesk :)

@nishakapoor05 if the link isn't working go to raverly.com and search car seat covers the patterns will pop up...if you dont like any you find there then goggle car seat covers and there are probably more out there on the internet....Cathy@ Mikeys helpdesk :)

This is definitely the best tutorial I have ever seen for making granny squares. (: Everything is very well-explained, so thank you for making it!

I do have one question though. When I'm making the first round (the center of the granny square), the hole in the middle of the round is not as open as the center you made. Is there a reason for this? Am I not pulling the stitching tight enough?

Thanks!

Where does the lovely background music come from?? I have heard it also in the video about the laying out of the squares and I find it very inspiring for making the granny squares! Thanks

I have been crocheting for a year now and never did I think to weave in the ends as I went along. Never knew it was sooo easy! Also, thanks for the tip on making racks (lol) of circles before moving to the next step.
