Beaded Granny Squares Tutorial

In my last post, I talked about how I was getting back into beading. I was thinking of other things I could make with my beads, and how I could incorporate it into my knitting obsession. Well, I had the idea to make granny square out of beads! They're super cute! I'm not entirely sure what I want to do with them... Earrings? String them together to make a bracelet? Use bigger beads to make keychains? There are a ton of possibilities!


Materials needed:
- Beads in 3 colors: 20 of the main color, 8 of the second color, and 12 of the third
- Needle (the thinner the better!)
- Beading floss (available at any craft store)




Step 1: Thread your floss on your needle. I like to double up the floss. Make it nice and long.
