Will this also work for hexagons?
Thank you, Thank you can't wait to try this. 😊
Brilliant
Sehr schön ❤
This is perfect. You're such a good teacher. Thanks.
sure needed this thank you
Can u please tell me what weight of yarn and crochet hook size ? Thank you
That cardigan with rainbow colour on the second project is awesome!!❤
Game changer, thank you so much for publishing this tutorial. I'm in the middle of my first granny square project, a summer top for my daughter. The last stitch of the colours and the last row was a real problem for me as I'm not a routine crocheter (yet), as it either was a bump or I had one stitch too much. About half of the necessary squares are already finished, but the second half will look slightly better. Probably, no one will ever notice, but I know and my happiness with my finished project is very important 😂
Dude this was freaking awesome the first one worked like a charm big thanks to ya
This was so easy to follow. Thank you!!!
Ты молодец!!! Браво мастерице
No, no, no! I will not have this. Making the fiddly technique of the magic circle approachable for even beginners. What's next? Tutorials that show us how you swap the hideous three beginning chains for a stacked single crochet so everyone can get straight edges? smh jk XD
@@stonytina5177 🤣🤣🤣 this made me laugh out loud!!!
This is so cool! I hate the magic ring, too! Thanks! ❤
Please can anyone help, I am making continuous granny square for great grand daughter's single bed how do I get the length when I have already achieved the with. 39 wide 75 long.. I have entered the land of Brain fog. Many thanks
@@sonjabirch5533 I don’t have tutorial showing exactly this but you would need to work in rows similar too a granny stripe pattern on one side to turn a normal granny square into a rectangle. I show something very similar in the granny hex cardigan tutorial here: m.czcams.com/video/Ao0Hl7PcGEg/video.html
I love this video soooo much very detailed i will try this one i have some size 3 weight i hope it comes out as pretty as this one
A slip knot and you take the tail and crochet over it so you can tighten the ends
just like a duplicate stitch in knitting! love it!
Everything you make is so beautiful!!!
But how do we weave in the ends so that they are not visible?
@@emimimimimimimi I use the same colour as the blanket border and weave them in there
Once I discovered the double magic ring I’ve used it ever since for ever in the round pattern.
tendi nd, mas talvez seja pq sou iniciante
I loved it❤Ty fr this video
Que delícia ver esse vídeo quase 5 anos depois.
Such a great tutorial! I've been crocheting for a while but this was my first granny square (shockingly!) and it was so simple to follow. I started my blanket on Thursday and I'm almost done!
Wow love this way of doing the ring. Thank you
I always use the crochet in the first chain or crochet around the chain. They are the easiest way for me.
Brilliant! Thank you!
Amazing. Not only the technique but the tutorial is also seamless (see what I did there) 19 years on and off crocheting and still learning, love that.
You got a follower from the Caribbean also I'm a beginner and following you has made it easier to enjoy crocheting , going to join the CAL I'm really excited to try these squares can't say which is my favourite yet cause I have only made the solid granny square and the sunflower square because I love sunflowers, so maybe at the end of the CAL I might have a favourite. The giveaway yarns are beautiful I missed it🥰congratulation to the winner.
NEW FRIEND.PLEASE YOU ALSO COME INTO MY FAMILY. PLEASE DON'T FORGET. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE COME. I ALREADY CAME ❤❤❤❤❤
This was so helpful, thank you!!
Can you join the colors as you go? That is what I did w the small granny squares I just made but I am a beginner so idk if it works the same w each project/ with a project this large!
Thank you so much for this video. I’m doing daisy squares and have completed 2. Using the method in the pattern the joining round area was very visible. I have 15 to make in total so will using your technique from now on. I just can’t understand why everyone doesn’t do your method. I’ve watched loads of videos, and never come across it before. ❤
I'm starting the granny stripe blanket, and working on a granny square blanket. I'm doubting my hook size compared to the yarn thickness. But it's actually smaller I-9 vs. j-10 than the ball band recommends? But I'm going to go along with it and see what happens.
You just blew my mind! 😮 amazing. Thanks for sharing
Would you have one stitch less on that side? Since you are skipping the top chain.
@@almahansen5713 you wouldn’t be skipping the chain, you are changing the top of the starting chain to make it look the same as the other stitches. Your stitch count will be the same.
@@meemamakes thank you. Will definitely try it out
Does it make a difference if u do a ch before the next corner?I see some videos do and some don't. What's the best ?
How do you weave in the ends of the yarn? I need to use a contrasting color for joining and want to minimize it showing. Thanks!
@@kimberlymccollum8284 I usually use the same colour as the border so I can weave it in there. The other thing I’ve done is weave it back and forth through the slight ridge on the back although this isn’t completely invisible
I have clover amore, and Tulip etimo are better than clover. Will try prim ergonomic hooks.
Thank you very much for the sharing! The instructions are very understandable and clear. 🤩
😊
You are amazing, THIS is the best tutorial that's out there! Thank you sooooooo much for explaining and showing everything so easily understandable! <3
someone pls help 😭😭😭 how do i do this for a blanket?? do i go through the whole row at once and then coloumns???
yeah, i think you should do all the rows first then all the columns, i’m also making a blanket and that’s how i’m doing it but it depends on personal preference i guess
This video helped clear up how to fix the chaining and corner issues thanks alot.
Oh I hope this is it! Oh darn, it’s closed
Very well explained!!! I’m gathering yarn to make a huge gs blanket but first I’ve got to finish 3 afghans I’m working on , as well as giving my thumb a good week or 2 break..tfs
Thank you!❤
Beautiful blanket!! I’m going to make this , hope it makes me feel closer to Yorkshire. I probably will never get there although it’s been my life long desire!(71, now)
