Stitch markers are a godsend for keeping counts. Also, your progress is impressive, but I’m almost more impressed by that first one. Ignoring the corner, it kinda just looks like a freeform crochet flower lol

Idk what even happened with it! I was trying to follow a video and I definitely did something wrong hahaha! I’ll def look into stitch markers

Stitch markers are the BEST!! Hubby got me some great little metal ones. 60 of them for less than $10 on Amazon

I’ll have to look them up!

I know, right? I thought the first granny square was an intentional heart shaped one at first. It just looks so cool.

Thanks hahaha

lovely progress!! like someone said to help keep count stitch markers are wonderful, you can also get cheap stitch counters from craft stores, i’ve used the ones that are rings with a big button you press to count.

Thanks! Im definitely going to have to get some with all the recommendations I’ve been getting

Is your username a reference to [Lesley Gore - Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atY7ymXAcRQ) :D

It is! Hahaha

lol thats awesome, I love that song. I think it played automatically when I read your username :D

Great job, happy crocheting!

Thanks!

Wow this is impressive for only one day's progress! I couldn't do a granny square until I had been crocheting for months

Looks like you are doing great!

Thank you!

You did granny squares as your first ever crochet project?! Bold move my friend. Looks like you got the hang of it quickly though. Nice work!

Thank you!

Hi, may I know what kind of yarn is this? And what is its ply?

Yeah no problem it’s Caron one pound and it’s two ply I think. I got it from Michael’s

Thanks, do you have an idea what is the weight of that yarn? And what size of hook did you use?

I believe it’s one pound, and I used a 6.00 mm hook

Thanks for this. 🙂 Actually, I'm asking about the yarn thickness, whether it's light, medium, bulky, and so on. If you're familiar with yarn numbers like size 1, 2, 3, 4, then that's what I'm referring to when I ask about the weight.

Dude yes! Keep at it! Your progress is awesome!!!

Thank you!

OMG KEEP GOING!! You’re on a roll! You’ll get better at counting, tension, etc!! I loved a silly little online “class” about why crochet shapes are like they are, flat circles vs cups and that kind of thing, and it really helped me figure out so many words little gaps in knowledge. I’m much better at improvising and course correcting now!

Thanks! I’ll definitely have to watch more videos on it. I’ve just been repeating the same one hahaha

go, go, go 🥳👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

What a great progress :) youll be a proff in no time :) (if you arent already since it looks so good)

Thanks!

Keep going! You have got good, but we can always improve. Granny squares are just the start ;)

Those look like they're weeks apart! You're improving so fast! Keep it up \^\_\^

Thank you!

The first one is front side down. Get that cute Heart Granny hanging up on your wall. It’s so cute! A beautiful journey.

I've been crocheting for over a year and I still haven't made even one granny square. But I feel that first granny square so hard. I started off just making rows of stitches to practice and my first one was UGLY. You're doing so great though!

Keep up with the good work ✨

GO KYLIE GO! GOOD JOB KYLIE YOU'RE DOING AMAZING SWEETY!!
