Basic Granny Yarn Requirements

Ever get part way around a Granny Square and run out of yarn,

I find that very annoying so I decided to work up a traditional granny square 

and see just how much yarn is needed for each round.

For this example I used worsted weight 4 ply yarn Red Heart Super Saver.
