I am a beginner and I found it really helpful! Just a few bits you missed out but I filled in the gaps x
¡😉👍👏👏👏 Muy bien explicado!!!...
Facil y queda perfecto!!!... mis felicitaciones ...!!!
I am a beginner too and this was so great to follow… so glad you didn’t use the magic circle to begin with which I don’t understand! Thanks for taking the time to show everything so calmly and thoroughly. Xx
I just want to know how many swuar w do I need
I meant how many squares do I need
WOWWWWWWWW! ! ! ! ! I DID IT!!!!! I only had to pause it about 50 times and rewind about 31 times, but I DID IT! Thank you for this lesson. This is my second granny square EVER!
Comments like yours make my day!
Lenysea well you made my evening!
Finally- I too stopped and paused and rewound. What I loved about this is that you didn’t have a bunch of background music and your counting aloud was perfect!!! TY

If anyone needs time stamps :)
Starting off - 1:13
Round 1 - 1:34

Love the tutorial!
About time someone added timestamps!!! 😅 Thanks!
@@Lenysea Haha np :D I'm gonna need em later got 8 more squares to do, Ialways end up coming back!
@@Lenysea how did you join the squares!? I have been searching and searching and can't find anything on it! I love the way you did it. And I can't find anything matching what you did.
Not all hero’s wear caps🤞🏾😭
I love your straight forward approach. No extra talking, just straight to it. Thank you. I’m a fan.
This is hands-down the prettiest square I've done. Love love love it! Really elegant.
Thank you for an amazing tutorial! This was my first square ever and I'm using it now for a fundraiser. FYI there is a small omission on the edit at 12:07 where you skip mentioning the 3 chain stitches before the single crochet into the 4th stitch of the 7 double crochets of the previous round 🥴 I didn't see this until my second square but it's all good now. Thanks again, and i love your accent btw ✨🙏✨
I just wanted to comment on it too! Mistakes happen, even to the best of us! but your comment should definitely be higher up, if not even pinned to the top, so beginner who rely on demonstrations can see it 😊
Thanks for this comment …. I’m about to pull out this round for the 3rd time and do it correctly 😅 I’m one of the newbies that rely on audible instructions !!
Yes! That almost really messed me up, but I caught it on the 2nd side, rewound and visually saw that she chained 3.
Me paso igual !!!
i was about to comment this. i thought there was something wrong haha
I made 2 of these in different colors, now I am making matching pillows using 4 squares on one side and plain crochet on the other. They are turning out beautiful. Thank you very much for this patten, it's my favorite!
First time ever crocheting a granny square & it turned out SO nice! This tutorial makes it so easy! It’s so simple to follow along with. Thank you so much for this incredibly helpful video!!
I was super inspired by everyones comments here, especially those who have tried it and so I decided to dive in and yikes just finished my first square WOW WOW! Thank you so much Lenysea! What a wonderful tutorial - your teaching is great! Thank you sooo much!!! I Whooooooop!!!!!! 🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰
At the beginning of Round #5 after the first corner when you chain 4 to do the double crochet in the single crochet of Round #4 you didn’t mention to chain 3 before adding the single crochet in the middle of the 7. You did mention it once you got to the next side though. Just wanted to mention that for anyone else that may have missed that like I did. I love the pattern though and your directions are super easy to follow. Thank you!
Yeah, i didn't catch that until i started writing down the instructions. Good eye.
Ha ha.. i JUST posted the same up above!! Rewound the video i don't know HOW many times, then saw she edited at approximately 12:07 and that part was edited out by mistake, but i did see 3 chains on her hook!
I just asked the same question
I saw that too. It’s like it was edited out in error.
@@deborahsthisthat5034 yup me too..
I made this square right along with you. It's so beautiful.Yes, you do go about quick even for someone who is not a beginner. I have been crocheting for over 10 years, and found you a little fast at times but I just rewound the video and paused it where I needed to, no issue at all! Anyway, I'm using this square to cover a throw pillow. I'm just going to continue on with the final border. Thank you again for a wonderful tutorial.
You can slow the video down if you so desire like I do
I picked up a crochet needle for the first time 2 days ago, my friends and family think I'm a gifted genius thanks to you and this tutorial! thank you so much!!
This was so easy to understand. I love the way you put this together and walked us through the parts we might not know.
Such an easy-to-follow tutorial! Thank you so much for making this!!
I’m making my first ever granny square blanket, I am loving it so far! Such a beautiful pattern ❤I can’t wait until it’s all done! Thank you for this easy to follow tutorial! With the pattern in notes is great!
I made this pattern about 6 months ago. I love it so much, I am doing it again. I needed to refresh my memory.
It all comes back. Like riding a bicycle.
❤this was the 1st square I was able to make that didn't look like crap. I've made close to a thousand Willow Squares, changing colors each round etc., and turning them into blankets, cardigans, bags... to gift to friends and family...and all because of this wonderful tutorial. ❤ Thank you so much.
I LOVED this tutorial!!!!! I put a twist in the making of it though. Instead of crocheting the square to make it turn out looking flat, I front post stitched everything! Now the square looks 3-D. I wish I could put up a picture of how it looks because it's got so much texture it looks wonderful!!! I also used Red Heart Unforgettable yarn that self variegates and it looks SPECTACULAR!!!
Sounds beautiful! I’m going to try that, great twist!💕👍
This is a wonderful tutorial. I think I will be making this over the summer to make a several blankets for Christmas. The reason I say over the summer because I can work on something small in this Texas heat. Thanks so much for sharing your talents.

Thank you!!!
Just finished this for my niece for her graduation! Thank you for the wonderful instructions!!
I just completed my first granny square thanks to you! If anyone is having trouble keeping up, might I suggest slowing your speed settings to 1/2 speed.
I believe all crochet tutorials should take a leaf out of Lenysea’s book! I love her simple and easy to follow approach, doesn’t talk about anything else, purely on the stitch and pattern guidelines. It really helps me FOCUS. Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you for an easy to follow tutorial, love that you don't talk and talk before, just clear instructions
I try!! 😅
Hi, Im new here so thank you for your demo! In reference to a previous comment, It is rather fast to follow as a beginner, but for someone who can't yet follow patterns and a newcomer to crochet, i managed to "WATCH, PAUSE, WORK, GO BACK, WATCH AGAIN AND REPEAT" and I have managed to run a fair few lovely lacy squares off this way this afternoon sat with my feet up feeling sorry for myself with a flu bug! So thank you for your demo - you have taught me to run before I can walk! My only complaint is a personal one - I have a sore middle finger left hand from prodding and poking it too much with the crochet hook! OUCH!! That said the elegent looking square is well worth it!

Have mercy, I have spent endless hours trying to make this square look somewhat presentable and failed every time. I have no clue why I couldn’t grasp the concept. I managed to come across your tutorial and made a pact to myself that I would not stop until I figured it out. Your directions were so plain and simple that I was able to breeze through it as if I wrote it myself. I can not thank you enough for taking the time to talk in such a way that I was able to get the concept. Thank you for teaching me this just in time for me to create a special blanket for my granddaughter that will arrive the end of summer. God Speed!
Bertie Hardison Aww! Thank you for your kind words! I am glad, I could help!
I'm just a beginner and this was the second granny square I've ever done! You were really easy to understand and you didn't muck around just explained what to do and did it! - which I liked. I did it in under 15mins and I also changed colours!
:) Thanks for the feedback!
i really enjoyed making this square...all i did was watched and listened carefully, STOPPED THE VIDEO, followed her instructions and when i finished with that segment pressed play for the next instruction...however, in think round 4 ,she only demonstrates half the round and if you are not paying attention she is onto the next round....so that may have stumble some but i caught what she was doing....it's really an easy tutorial ....thank you...you have a new subscriber 😊
Thank you for this tutorial. I made my first granny square using your tutorial😊 I completed 2 squares so far!👏
I can’t believe I’m doing this! Your lessons are perfect! I am a beginner and I had no problem following your lead! Thank you! I’ve got a lovely blanket on the way.
I sucessfully made my first granny square using this video. Paused about 1000x along the way but found it easy to follow. Now to make many many more.
I am so full of excitement! I was actually able to learn this while my son was running around playing. It turned out good!
This is an absolutely beautiful square. I have been looking for pretty granny squares in a larger size, and this is perfect for what I need. Thank you so much for sharing your videos!
I did this along with you itvxame out very well thanks
Can I learn something bigger size like this
So glad for this vid and these comments, I gave it a go and I havnt stopped since, this tutorial and these squares are SO MUCH nicer and easier to make than other beginner squares I've tried, those all came out ugly even when I make mistakes this one comes out soooo nice and still usable in my opinion, til I get better!
This is a great tutorial. I started this pattern with a different tutorial and found it confusing and not enjoyable when I got to round 4. I love these modifications. It makes sense and allows the pattern to flow. Excellent, thank. you
Thank you so much! I really like how you repeated things and how straightforward your instructions were!
Love this pattern, followed your video x 2, sc around entire square, crocheted ends together and made fingerless gloves.
Your tutorial made this so much easier. Thank you that you also included the pattern. I love the way it turned out.
Thank you for you vidéo. It's the easiest tuto about willow square.I just see one time and i write your pattern to help me.I Was surprised to manage immediatly, i'm not english.Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much! You explained this very well - and I've just done my FIRST square! I saw a lot of others out there, but this was just so pretty and well explained. I can't wait to get a beautiful yarn to make a bunch of these with so I can make a gorgeous blanket from this pattern :)
Loved the tutorial, managed to make a few really pretty squares from it. There was only a few places I noticed slip ups but they were easily corrected, thank you so much this one is so pretty!
You are really the best. I've only been crocheting since the start of the year but I've done a few scarves, hats, some amigurumi, 2 granny square bags and all had big flaws and mistakes in them. This is the first tutorial where I've been able yo completely follow along with you and my square has turned out so perfect. I'm in shock lol I always mess up all my projects. I keep looking at my square finished and I'm so in love with it. Thanks so much. Going to try to keep going and make a blanket from these squares but also when I feel abit braver I will venture into your other videos. Thanks so much. I'm so happy 😆
Thank you so much for sharing this pattern. I have the Willow granny square pattern in the "Jan Eaton 200 Blocks" book but it uses UK terms and no symbols chart, which is very frustrating not to have included with a pattern. Your video is easy to follow along, you are clear and concise, a great teacher. And thank you so much for sharing the symbols chart in the description box, making it easier to crochet and simple to edit the changes you made to the pattern. Your edits made this granny square look even better in my opinion.
I can't tell you how much I appreciated this video, I'm not a beginner but I'm not An expert either. this tutorial took us far more into detailed and vew of the process Instead of just a small sample of instructions and leaving us to our own device, I do hope that you make more intricate Granny squares in this same way. Again I thank you because you have helped me to make my son's wedding blanket.
Thank you! Here is the link to the playlist of all motifs I have posted so far. For the more recent ones I made sure to include the diagram/chart as well: czcams.com/play/PLwlEmeCvY_L4s2jpqg7tdI2HEM04AxW6O.html
I love the willow crochet pattern, but i wish i had seen this tutorial before the one i have been using, this makes each patch look more fuller. Going to be using this version from now on.
I agree with you! This artist is SO easy to follow, compared to another I was just following!
I love this willow square. Your directions and demonstrations are clear and easy to follow. Thank you!
The accent ❤ and the video is chef's kiss !
This tutorial is not for the faint of heart. (Not a beginner video). She skips details (specifically the chains) and works very quickly. But, if you have some knowledge of how a pattern works, you'll be fine, and you'll be able to fill in the gaps as I did.
☆It may help to watch the whole video before beginning, so you know where she's going.
If you can get through it, it's worth it. Very beautiful Granny Square pattern.
Just finished this beautiful blanket. Put homemade Rose's and leaves in center of each one. Best pattern ever. After first 4 squares I no longer needed to watch video. GREAT job on making video!!!
Thank you so much for the feedback!
First attempt , or at least, first finished granny square, it's just gorgeous!!!
Thanks for sharing. I am crocheting now, the square are beautiful and I am enjoying going this. I have fourteen more to make.❤
I apsolutely love this Granny square, decorative and very simple to do.
I never thought I would be able to do granny squares and because of your tutorial I was able to make my first! Thank you for this video and all your hard work!
Truly, the most helpful, easiest tutorial I've seen. Absolutely beautiful crocheting, and no faffing around like other videos. Thank you!
Wow! I did it too. Had to rewind the video and my work a few times but I got there in the end. As a beginner, I'm rather proud of myself
Absolutely love this pattern! I'm slowly getting into more complex patterns and this one turned out beautifully! I'm using the Red Heart Super Saver stripes yarn so all of the squares are a little different. Cant wait to finish my blanket!
Took me hours cuz I kept messing up but once I figured out what I was doing wrong it went amazing and I love the way it turned out. You are really good at tutorials.
You are a marvelous teacher. You go at the perfect speed. Thank you.
Now I heard you describing the pattern while crocheting.
This too is remarkably clear and wonderful
Such a beautiful square. Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate and post these instructions! I hope you have a video where you put squares together.
I've just started crochet and made 6 of these!Really simple tutorial 10/10 would recommend
I had this pattern many years ago and lost it. Tried many times to replicate it with no luck so many many thanks. I can now get the dozen or so squares I already made and maybe finish that blanket!!!! Thank you
I absolutely love this! Love your voice, speed, clarity, vid length AND that u have the written pattern in description box! I made one earlier, turned out great. Ty so much!!!
After rewinding and pausing more times than I can count, and 10 squares later I finally have this pattern memorized! Lol thank you for such a beautiful granny square pattern I just love it, going to make a lap blanket out of it.😊👏
Thank you for persevering!! 😅
Also I have never been able to read a pattern so CZcams videos have helped me immensely. Your pattern was written so well between watching the video and comparing it to reading the pattern I think it improved my ability in that area. You are a great teacher of crochet.❤️
Thank you SO very much for your amazing way of teaching. I am about to finish my first square, thanks to you❤️
Best instructions ever. Very clear, at just the right speed. Fabulous!
Thank you!
I just finished my square and it’s so beautiful! Thank you for the detail you went into, showing exactly what we needed. I’m learning to crochet and this was hands down one of the best videos with descriptions I have watched! Thank you!!!
Aww!! Thank you!
i think u missed one side
I love this tutorial. Easy to follow. Goes at just the right pace and makes a very nice pattern and is simple to do! Will make a great easy Afghan. Great for beginners too. Give this a try. Very enjoyable pattern!
i love this square and you have a great way of teaching. I had to stop and rewind so many times then decided to write down where each round began (that helped a lot). I was going to make my mom a lap blanket for her birthday but I will go buy something today, I'm running out of time lol. I am still working on the squares, they all might be a little different but that just makes it special. Thanks so much
Well - just wanted to add that I did finally figure out how to make this the center of a continuous granny square blanket - looks really cool! Thank you so much for this tutorial - Happy hooking ...
In regards to crocheting this is my favorite tutorial. Thank You!
Just wondering if there is a tutorial on joining the willow squares? Newbie to this. Thank you, I love your pattern.
Im looking for a way to join as well
She has this tutorial for how to join them. czcams.com/video/0AXhRz-houo/video.html
I was wondering the same thing.
Finish doing my squares and I am wondering the same thing as well
Love your tutorial, so easy to follow. squares turned out beautifully. Now I'd like to learn how to join the squares too.
Holy crochet hook! I think I can do this!!! Thank you for this tutorial. I am a beginner but you make it easy!
I'm french and i found your tutorial easy and fun to follow.The result is really gorgeous.Thank you ! ☺️
I thought it was going to be complicated. I had to go back a couple of times. It was my first time doing this. It looks good. Thanks for easy lesson! I have been trying out new granny squares. I would do it again.
Very easy to understand excellent tutorial and beautiful design! I also don’t like large gaps in my blankets so i love your adjustment! This is perfect thank you for sharing! 🥰
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I learned to crochet a little bit about 3 years ago and made some very basic things but found it frustrating and haven’t done it since. Yesterday was the first time I’ve picked up a crochet hook since then and I knew I really wanted to learn how to do a granny square so I could make a beautiful blanket. Your tutorial was so easy to follow and my granny square came out beautifully and almost perfect! This was so gratifying and I know I will enjoy to continue to make these until I can piece together a blanket.
Oh, Olivia! Thank you SO MUCH for your kind words and positive feedback! I am beyond happy to know that I could help you get back into crocheting.
Please, promise to never give up ☺️
This is my favourite square. Would have finished it last night but went wrong had to pull a whole row out but was well worth it. I love it
I understood each and every step!! You made this, so easy and the zoom was as clear as possible!! Thank you so much!!! I can't wait bying new and colorful yarn and start Knitting a drape for my sofa! ❤️❤️
Great tutorial... I have been crocheting on and off for years but have never made a square... believe it ... lol there is a baby arriving for a friend in the next couple of weeks... and... wanted to make a blanket... now I have done a girls style ...looking for a boys style... thanks Robyn Australia
The easiest willow granny square tutorial. Thank u so much. I made one at last! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! Absolutely the easiest pattern I’ve ever been able to follow and beautiful as well. Thank you a million times over!!
You are so welcome!
I love your tutorials. They are so so easy to follow as I’m only a beginner I have so far made 4 but will be making loads more to make into a blanket 😁 xx
You do a really good job of teaching, thank you. Most repeat each step of the stitch way to long. You keep it short and sweet.
I’m new to crocheting (not even a month in) and I honestly love this tutorial. Not only is the end result gorgeous but you explained everything so well and made it so easy to follow along. I’m using this pattern to make a blanket for my grandmother because she was so excited that I was learning (it reminds her of her own grandmother) Can’t thank you enough for this ❤
It’s so nice to hear! Because there are so many ppl in the comments that claim to have been crocheting for years 🙄 and still can’t get it… I strongly believe that between the video and the written part, this tutorial is so easy! All it requires is to pay attention and a little patience. Cheers! 🥂
this helped so so much, i got confused for a second but after a little while i got the hang of it, thank youuuuu this was great !!!!
Thank you so much,you’re the best teacher,finally I understand and see clearly what you doing
Great tutorial,I saw few but didn’t understand,thanks I find you ,Big thank you 🙏🏻
I've only ever crocheted basic granny squares so this tutorial was awesome! 👍😁 I watched and wrote down ALL the instructions (I learn better by watching and taking notes). I stumbled upon this design and knew I had to try it so thank you very much for taking the time to demonstrate how to make it. You did an excellent job and I am going to try to make at least one square tonight and then I may have to buy several yarn colors when I'm successful. Can't wait to watch your video where you put the squares together. Thanks again and have a great day!😊
Thank you for your fantastic tutorials. Your instructions are clear, precise and you are so easy to follow. I have watched a lot of tutorials but you are the best by a mile. Thank you for your amazing patterns and your wonderful tutorials.
At 12:07 you edited the video and it cut out the part where you are supposed to chain 3, then sc in middle of the 7 dc. I just caught that now!! I was confused until i saw it was edited out by mistake ha ha
LOVE this pattern!!!!!!
Thank you! It was driving me crazy trying to rewind all the time there trying to see if I just missed it!
@@elinor1968 My first square had this mistake but I ignored it on the next tour. Now by my second square, I caught it. It took me a few rewinds to see what happened.
@@elinor1968 zzszssssssssszszzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzsssssssssssssssssssssszzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzź
@@elinor1968 rŕffģx?
Yes, I caught this only after starting the next row and realising that there was no space. Frogged everything back to that bit and started over 😭
This was my first granny square!! It was super easy to follow and the result looks amazing!!
Great tutorial, thank you for sharing this pattern and your spin on the original works seamlessly. I'll have to watch your video a stop and go few times to get the hang of it though.🥰 thank you again.
you have such a lovely voice I could listen to you talk all day
Thank you for sharing this "How to" on this beautiful blanket. Your instructions and video was easy to follow.
this is my very first granny square , im so proud of me , thank you !
Gorgeous! Made mine in cobalt blue and white alternating, to make a beautiful throw....thankyou so much! Easy, quick....
thank you so much! I decided I wanted to learn a new square and its so pretty. I had to pause, work, pause or rewind to see again :) I love it! Theyre a good size so I'll be able to get a few squares together and make a nice blanket :)
This is so beautiful, yet so simple. I can't wait to work this up with some yarn that I have.
I didn’t realize how nice and big these are! My usually granny squares are the little daisy ones so this was a fun challenge!
I made a queen size blanket for my sister using this pattern, my colors were teal, and white. Wish I could upload a pic, it came out great. Thanks for a great pattern.
How many squares did you make if you don’t mind my asking I’ve made 40 so far thank you
