Sliding loop : an easy way to begin granny square!

 

The double sliding loop is my favorite way to begin a granny square. I find this method fabulous as I can make the beginning ring the size I want.

I worked it with a double ring as I find it more safe and easier to weave in end the tails. And here is a tutorial just to share with you my way to work :

1. Wrap your yarn 3 times around your finger

3. Pull the working end of yarn through the rings

6.And pull it through the loop on the hook
