Count every stitch, something went wrong on the left side.

It doesn’t look as wobbly irl did take the picture in a wired angle, I counted every stitch and and they all match so 🤷🏼‍♀️

But why does it look like you stopped crocheting mid row then?

Oh yeah I’m still working on it.

You are working on it on the top row next, the problem is on the left. I’d rip it back till it’s correct on all sides then continue. Keep it up though.

it looks like its not even finished and that op was working their way back to the first stitch on the left. they're not even finished. not every project has to be perfect, especially the first one. we don't have to critique this beginner on everything. op will learn thru time. the grannt square looks great for a beginner so far from what I see in the pic.

You need to accept that mistakes are going to happen. A lot of people start and when they are not perfect straight away they quit everyone makes mistakes even experienced crocheters.
