A little about Granny Squares...

Glorious granny squares are an icon of the crochet world and can be seen everywhere from couches to the catwalk. Although they were popularised in the 1960s and 1970s, there is a mention of them from Butterick’s Art of Crochet from 1895. In the Depression era, it was a useful way to use up scrap yarn – and this still holds true today.

The stitches used in UK terms are trebles (tr), chain stitches (ch) and slip stitch (ss).
