CHAINLESS CROCHET FOUNDATION

Before we begin creating the heart granny square, I will show you how to make a chainless half double crochet foundation. This technique forms both the initial chain and the first row of crochet stitches. However, you can also start with a traditional chain foundation and skip this part if you prefer.

Start with magic ring or chain ring

Then insert the hook into the magic ring or chain ring

Yarn over and pull up a loop

Yarn over and pull the yarn through both loops on the hook

Insert the hook at the top of the stitch

Yarn over then pull the yarn through the stitch and the loop on your hook

Now we have our first chainless half double crochet

HEART GRANNY SQUARE

Using your rose pink yarn or any yarn color you prefer, chain 4, then skip 3 chains from the hook and slip stitch into the first chain to create a chain ring.
