I'm using Verdant Vine and Ruby Red in this video.
Red Heart All-in-One Granny Square yarn lets you keep on stitchin’ with no color switchin’ because it’s made with pre-set color changes that allows you to make a perfect granny square! And you can make 14 granny squares with just one ball!
The trouble that most of you are having is that you can't get the color change to land exactly at the end of the round so you can seamlessly start a new one. Below are some factors that could be affecting the outcome of your granny squares:
Tension: The biggest tip I have for you is to work on your tension. Tension is how tight or loose you are crocheting your stitches. If I’m getting close to the end of the round and noticing I have a lot of that particular color left before the next color change, I start to make my stitches loose. If I’m noticing I’m running out of color before the color change, I frog some stitches and start to make my stitches really tight.
Hook Size: I am using size H (5mm) hook but I have seen many using a larger hook for the first few rounds and then switch to a smaller hook for the last two. It seems you have slightly more yarn sometimes in the first two or 3 rounds than in the last two. Or maybe you feel like you can get a better tension with a slightly larger or smaller hook.
It takes a few to get the hang of it: Once you get through 2-3 squares you will start to get the rhythm of how the yarn works up. So don't give up too quickly!
It really saves a lot of time since you don't need to fasten off one strand and add in a new one with each color change.With this yarn you will only have two ends to weave in when you are done! It's also a space saver! I was recently traveling and I only need to bring this one ball of yarn instead of 5 different colors. PLUS they have such nice color combinations. You don't have to coordinate the yarn yourself.
