Learn how to crochet a super solid granny square with my free step-by-step pattern and video tutorial. This square was inspired by someone asking me if there was a way of crocheting a solid granny square with absolutely no holes! So I sat down and created one for you all.

In this post you will find the written pattern and video tutorials available in both right and left-handed versions.

    Thank you so much. This is fabulous. In fact, I wanted to make a huge afghan in stripes but I find it much easier to work w/granny squares than huge piece. But I hate the holes! Now I can put them together one by one & row by row.. So I am placing your granny squares side by side to create stripes. So thank you for creating a way for me to make a striped afghan. I love your YouTube channel and now I am so glad I found your blog. I think you are super creative. Thank you so very much. 🙂 Shelly
