How to add a v-stitch edge to your granny squares

Simple But Effective!

The V-Stitch edging adds a different type of contrast to your crochet edging. It uses the same treble crochet stitch (Tr) as the granny cluster, but it is made up of 2 treble crochets with a chain in between the stitches to create the V. 

This crochet border can be added in the same colour as the square and visually it would show well, but when crocheted in a different colour, the V-Stitch really stands out!
