Solid Granny Square Patterns

A solid granny square fills the gaps of a classic square with stitches, working double crochets into both the chain spaces and the tops of stitches. The result is a dense, gap-free fabric that is warmer and more structured. Solid squares suit bags, cardigans, and pillows where the open look of a classic square would be impractical.

How is a solid granny square different to crochet?

A solid granny square is worked into every stitch along the sides rather than only into chain spaces, so you must count stitches instead of clusters. Corners still use chain spaces, typically with two chains, and each round adds four stitches per side. The square stays flat as long as the corner increases stay consistent.
