Solid granny square

This free crochet pattern lets you create a solid granny square which you can make as big as you like and use for blankets or Afghans and various other crochet projects. It begins with a magic circle (or an optional chain alternative) and builds into a textured square using a series of double crochets and front post double crochets, working in the round. Great for beginners and more experienced crocheters alike. I have included a full video tutorial to the pattern to help you along. The finished square can also be transformed into charming crochet chicken by following an additional tutorial included in this pattern.
