Workshop: Intro to Granny Squares

Loading...

Curious about the granny square? Learn how to make these iconic motifs and read crochet charts. Charts are another, more visual way of presenting a pattern. Being able to read charts allows you to visualize a pattern before you begin and even opens up the possibility of crocheting patterns written in another language.

The pattern is provided for this workshop, but students are required to purchase their own yarn, hooks, and notions. Students get a 15% discount on materials purchased for their class.
