For my first week I created a Pinterest board that has some granny square ideas and the vibe I am going for for the final project I have planned. Below are a couple of pins I am using as this weeks inspiration for this week. I also realized I put an extra week on my table last week so I adjusted my plan. 

I started by doing a basic granny square. This was the Pinterest post that I used as my inspiration. Here are a couple of Inspiration posts I used for this week. 

This square was fairly easy to do, probably because I have already tried to do one in the past. Each row is a different colour which was surprisingly easy to do. I also made three of them. 

This is the first square I made. I would say it turned out daily decent but there is definitely room for improvement because I am pretty sure I added an extra stitch on the top left hand corner (which is why it looks bulbus).

This is the second square I made. I made it based on what I remembered from the pattern. This actually helped me a lot because now it feels like a skill that I will never forget, like riding a bike. 

This was the final square I made for this week. I definitely think it turned out the best. At this point I also decided it was in my best interest to keep the tails long until I am ready for assembly. 

I used this Youtube video as my tutorial.

Originally I was using this video below, but I just could not follow along. Quite frankly I hated it, so I changed it to the one above.

The second video I watched worked well for me because I am a visual learner and need to actually see how to do it so I can follow along. My only issue with the video is that it is a little long for me. I like short and sweet tutorials so I did have to put the video on 2x speed so I would not get bored halfway through. Overall, I would recommend this video to someone else who is learning to crochet because it was easy to follow along.
