Love a good granny square but prefer the ease and speed of hand crochet? This project is perfect for you! No hook needed.
I created this video tutorial after making my own chunky granny square and falling in love with the process and final product. In this video, I visually walk you through the process of hand crocheting, as well as verbally talk through the process, so you can make your very own chunky granny square.
Estimated size of finished granny square = 20" x 20" (size may vary depending on creator and yarn used)
