Thanks for visiting my page! Here is a written tutorial with photos on how to make my Four Corners Granny Blanket!
This blanket is made from 4 big granny squares joined together! Enjoy!
First, with any project you'll need a crochet hook and yarn. Any yarn or hook will do for learning this blanket
For this tutorial you'll need to know how to make Chains (CH), I have a tutorial here! How to make the Slip Stitch (SL ST), tutorial here! How to make the Double Crochet Stitch (DC), tutorial here!

This blanket is made from 4 big Granny Squares joined together. Lets start with the Granny Square tutorial:
Row 1: Make your circle, then make 3 CHs
I'm using the CH 4 method, so the CH farthest from my hook will be my 'circle space'
Make 2 DC into your circle space
*Make 2 CHs
These CH 2 spaces will be the corners
Make 3 DC into same circle space
Repeat the steps above from * around, until you have 4 sets of 3 DC for each side and 4 corner CH 2 spaces
SL ST into beginning CHs to complete your row

Row 2: Attach new color to corner space, make 3 CHs (these CHs count as 1 DC)
2 DC into same corner space
*Make 2 CHs
Make 3 DC into same corner space
Make 1 CH
Skip over previous 3 DC block, into next corner space make 3 DC
Repeat the steps above from * around, until you have 3 DC + CH 2 + 3 DC into each corner and 1 open space on each side
SL ST into beginning CHs to complete your row

Row 3: Attach new color to corner space, make 3 CHs (these CHs count as 1 DC)
Make 2 DC into same corner space
*Make 2 CHs
Make 3 DC into same corner space
Make 1 CH
Skip previous 3 DC, make 3 DC into next previous open side space
Make 1 CH
Skip previous 3 DC, make 3 DC into next corner open space
Repeat the steps above from * around, until you have 3 DC + CH 2 + 3 DC into each corner and 3 DC into each open side space
SL ST into beginning CHs to complete your row

You can now see how the pattern will repeat. In each open space on any side you will do 3 DC. In-between any 3 DC on the sides you will CH 1 to skip over previous 3 DC blocks. In each corner space you will make 3 DC, CH 2, 3 DC into the same corner space.
Repeat Row 3 for how big you want your squares
So we will make 4 squares, I made 19 rows for each of my example squares for a throw size
Then we will join these squares together using the Join As You Go Method:

Step by step photo tutorial here!
Once you have joined your squares together, made 1 Row around the whole blanket to even out the sides/joins. You would repeat Row 3 from our Granny Square tutorial above
This is what my Four Corners Granny Blanket should look like when completed!
