How it works — real stitches, honestly
This community has been burned by AI-generated “crochet” photos that could never be made. Loop & Stitch is the opposite: the square is generated from the same structured pattern data you'd read in a magazine — rounds of double crochets, chain-2 corners and chain-1 spaces — and each stitch is a yarn tube swept along a curve in 3D. Zoom in as close as you like; there is no texture trick to fall apart. What you see really could come off your hook.

Crochet questions, answered
Is the 3D granny square made of real stitches?
Yes. Every double crochet, chain and slip stitch is real 3D tube geometry generated from hand-written pattern data — 184 stitches across 4 rounds. There are no textures or photos faking the yarn.
How many stitches are in a classic 4-round granny square?
184 stitches in this pattern: a 4-chain ring, then 12, 24, 36 and 48 double crochets in rounds 1 to 4, plus chain-2 corners, chain-1 side spaces and one slip-stitch join per round.
Can I change the colours of each round?
Yes. Every pattern ships with curated colourways (including icy palettes for the snowflake collection) — tap shuffle, or set each round or part yourself with the colour pickers. The 3D piece recolours instantly without restarting the build.
Can I save my granny square for Pinterest?
Yes. The Save my Pin button renders your current view and colourway into a 1000×1500 Pinterest-ready image with the piece name and a Loop & Stitch watermark, and downloads it as a PNG.
