Crochet Granny Heart Square
So many people asked if the Granny Heart Shape could be turned into a square and the answer is YES! Yes it can 😀❤ This method of squaring off gives a 3D textured effect to your square and is an interesting twist on traditional granny squares - definitely something different which I hope you all enjoy!
