How to make Crochet Granny Square

Posted on November 26, 2025

Here is a step-by-step tutorial so you can follow each stitch exactly to make the same square as your photo. 💙🤍
I will make it super clear, stitch by stitch.


🧶 DETAILED CROCHET INSTRUCTIONS

⭐ Stitches used

  • ch = chain
  • sl st = slip stitch
  • dc = double crochet
  • sp = space

🌼 ROUND 1 – Blue center

This creates the small base square.

  1. Magic ring (or ch 4 and join).
  2. Ch 3 (counts as 1 dc).
  3. Work 2 dc into the ring.
  4. Ch 2 → this is the first corner.
  5. 3 dc, ch 2
  6. Repeat 3 dc, ch 2 two more times
    → You should now have 4 sets of 3 dc with 4 ch-2 corners.
  7. Tighten the ring.
  8. Sl st into top of first ch-3 to close.

✔️ You now have a tiny blue square with 4 corners.


🌸 ROUND 2 – Blue clusters (flower effect)

You will work in each corner space from Round 1.

In each ch-2 corner space:

  1. Work 3 dc
  2. Ch 1
  3. Work 3 dc again in the same space
    → This makes a “double cluster”.

Repeat this in all 4 corners:

  • (3 dc, ch 1, 3 dc) in corner 1
  • (3 dc, ch 1, 3 dc) in corner 2
  • (3 dc, ch 1, 3 dc) in corner 3
  • (3 dc, ch 1, 3 dc) in corner 4

Sl st to join in the top of first dc.

✔️ Finished blue part.
Change color to white/cream.


🤍 ROUND 3 – White square border

Attach white yarn in any ch-1 space (the small gap between the two 3-dc groups).

In every corner ch-1 space:

  • 3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc

In each side space:

Between the petals there is a space → work 3 dc there.

So the pattern for round 3 is:

  • Corner: 3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc
  • Side: 3 dc
  • Corner: 3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc
  • Side: 3 dc
    … continue around.

Join with sl st.

✔️ Now the blue center becomes a bigger square.


🤍 ROUND 4 – Smooth white edge

This makes the border straight and clean.

Start in any corner ch-2 space:

  • 2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc (corner made)

Along each side:

Work 1 dc in each stitch
(Every dc from previous round will get 1 dc on top.)

Continue around all four sides.

At each corner:

Again (2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc)

Join with sl st and fasten off.


🎉 Your square is complete!

It should now match your photo exactly —
a blue flower-like center with a clean cream border.
