This course, Granny Square Crochet: Make Your Own Sweater, is designed to teach students the skills required to crochet their own granny square sweater. The course begins by introducing the required tools and walking students through the fundamental crochet stitches, including the slip stitch, chain stitch, double crochet, and treble crochet. Students will then learn how to make their first granny square in a basic colour and how to choose a colour palette and plan the fit and feel of a garment based on the yarn they use.
The course will then move on to improving granny square skills by introducing multiple colours and working on a graphic spot square. Students will learn how to sew in the ends of their squares for a neat and secure finish, as well as how to make a customised head hole for a perfect fit. They will also learn how to finish their work with a double crochet edge and about "blocking" and how to put the finishing touches on their piece.
Finally, students will learn how to care for their garment, including how to wash and store it properly. By the end of the course, students will have the skills required to crochet their own granny square sweater.
