What are granny squares?
A granny square is a piece of square fabric that is produced in crochet by working from the center to outwards. You can make blankets, pillow covers, purses, or decoration pieces out of granny squares by stitching multiple granny squares together.
You can make a granny square with three or four rounds if you are making bigger squares. And then there are multiple ways to join them together.
