Super beautiful crochet granny square

It looks like you’re referring to a crochet project! In the image, someone is crocheting a granny square or similar motif using double crochet stitches and color changes (pink, white, and purple yarns).

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to make what’s shown:


🧶 Supplies

  • Yarn: Three colors (e.g., light pink, white, and purple)
  • Crochet hook: Size that matches your yarn (usually 4–5 mm for medium-weight yarn)
  • Scissors
  • Tapestry needle (for weaving ends)

🪡 Step-by-Step Instructions

🌀 Round 1 – Pink Center

  1. Make a Magic Ring (or chain 4 and slip stitch to form a ring).
    • Hold the tail end of the yarn, wrap it around two fingers, and insert your hook under the first loop.
    • Yarn over and pull up a loop, chain 1 to secure.
  2. Chain 3 (counts as your first double crochet).
  3. Make 2 double crochets into the ring.
    (You now have a cluster of 3 double crochets — this forms one “side.”)
  4. Chain 2 — this creates a corner.
  5. Repeat (3 double crochets, chain 2) three more times into the ring.
    You’ll have 4 sets of 3 double crochets and 4 chain-2 corners.
  6. Slip stitch into the top of the beginning chain-3 to close the round.
  7. Pull the magic ring tight and fasten off the pink yarn.

Round 2 – White

  1. Attach the white yarn into any chain-2 corner space (not in a stitch, but into the open corner).
  2. Chain 3 (counts as your first double crochet).
  3. In the same corner, make 2 double crochets, chain 2, 3 double crochets.
    This completes one corner.
  4. Move to the next corner space.
    Make 3 double crochets, chain 2, 3 double crochets in that corner.
  5. Repeat this process in each corner.
    You’ll notice the square shape forming more clearly now.
  6. Slip stitch to the top of the first chain-3 to close the round.
  7. Fasten off white yarn.

💜 Round 3 – Purple

  1. Join purple yarn into any chain-2 corner space.
  2. Chain 3, then make 2 double crochets, chain 2, 3 double crochets in the same corner.
  3. Now you’ll have side spaces (the gaps between two clusters from the previous round).
    In each side space, make 3 double crochets (no chains between side clusters).
  4. In the next corner space, make 3 double crochets, chain 2, 3 double crochets.
  5. Continue this pattern all the way around:
    • 3 double crochets in each side space
    • 3 double crochets, chain 2, 3 double crochets in each corner
  6. Slip stitch to the top of the starting chain-3.
  7. Fasten off and weave in all ends with your needle.

🔄 Optional – Keep Growing the Granny Square

To make it bigger:

  • Continue adding rounds, each time starting in a corner.
  • Remember:
    • Corners = 3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc
    • Sides = 3 dc in each space

🧵 Helpful Tips

  • Yarn over before each double crochet.
  • Insert hook into space (not between stitches) for a looser, more open look.
  • Keep your tension consistent so your edges stay even.
  • If your square curls, lightly block it (pin it flat and mist with water).
