1. Worsted weight yarn in dif­fer­ent col­ors — This is the best yarn for the Flower Granny Square pat­tern, and it allows for a unique and con­trast-col­ored design.

2. 4 mm cro­chet hook — This hook size is per­fect for begin­ners and is read­i­ly avail­able for those who are new to cro­chet­ing.

3. Tapes­try nee­dle and yarn nee­dle — These tools are essen­tial for weav­ing in your yarn ends and fin­ish­ing off your projects.

4. Stitch mark­er — It helps you keep track of your stitch­es and rounds in this sim­ple cro­chet coast­er pat­tern.

5. Mag­ic ring — The mag­ic ring tech­nique is a great way to start a cro­chet project like the Flower Granny Square. It ensures that you can close the cen­ter hole tight­ly.
