Pattern Notes:
This is a very easy, beginner friendly square, made almost entirely with double
crochet. It is simple to make the square any size you want, just by repeating the last
two rounds and adding an additional pattern repeat each side each time.
It’s similar to the traditional granny square, and was designed in memory of my
grandmother, who loved to crochet grannies
