If you already know how to make granny squares you can jump ahead to step 6.

Here are a list of abbreviations that I will be using a:
         
            ch(s)       chain stitch(s)
            dc            double crochet
            sl st        slip stitch
            sp           space
            yo            yarn over

To begin make a slip knot (form a loop and pull another loop through it with your hook -see image 1 and 2 below).

Yarn over (wrap yarn over your hook from back to front -see image 3)

Pull the yarn through the loop to make a new loop (image 4), do not tighten.  This is your first chain stitch (ch).
