DIY Join-As-You-Go Method: Joining Crochet Granny Squares ¦ The Corner of Craft

[@aquilaclark814]

At last..a tutor who gives an easy way to join as you go..so easy to follow. .thx a million. .

[@manewmana]

Great tutorial on how to join. I’ve done something like this in the past but always got stuck on the corners. Very clear on how you do it, and the music is not bothering me at all. I hear you just fine. Thank you for sharing.

[@ssallows5633]

I've just gotten back into crochet after many years, my eyesight is not as good as it was and this is a beautiful easy method that doesn't require to see the individual stitches when using dark colors. Thanks you ver much

[@moocowspots]

This is amazing. I made a bag full of granny squares when I first learnt how to crochet. They've been sitting there for years now because I was never bothered to join them. This is fantastic! Thanks so much

[@rhondabauer3117]

Another great way to join granny squats. Thank you. Oh by the way. The music is a nice touch. I enjoyed it. There was no distraction.

Loved you instructions for connecting the granny squares and have finished putting mine together. Thank you! So glad I finally found your podcast...really enjoy it. CJJ from Kansas US

[@gillianbeers6890]

A great method for joining,I have kept this video. Thank you.

[@thecornerofcraft]

Glad it was helpful! x

[@annfwilliams4639]

Very clear visual instruction. I've watched a few tutorials and yours is the best. Thank you

[@thecornerofcraft]

+annf williams Thanks so much!! Glad I was able to help you out xx

[@moragmctavish9628]

Much better than sewing them together. Thanks 👍

[@Flowerfoot]

Thank you sooo much for this video! I love making granny squares but seaming is the bane of my existence. This method is so easy and I'm excited to start putting together blankets!

[@SarahLucienne]

hi I have loads of little squares & wanted a way to crochet them together so I came on KZbin to look on how to do it & came across your video. I just want to say thank you for this tutorial I can now crochet my squares together & it looks really nice! 😊

[@RedBlushGurl]

I did not know there was a method of joining granny squares as you go. I like the idea of this so much better than the single crochet methods I've seen. I can't wait to try it. I'm new to crochet, and have learned entirely through KZbin videos, so would like to thank you for taking the time to make videos like this one. They help immensely! ~ Sierra from Canada

[@shaynareynolds771]

I've been doing borders as I go (on close to 100 squares already), so I'll have to save this method for the next project I have planned. I will experiment to see if it works when you don't do a chain 1 between shells. Incidentally, I love that your hair more or less matches the baby blanket in this video. So cute - and the multi-colored hair works well on you.

[@kyliec.2611]

love this. can see the blanket coming together as i go. make crocheting much more appealing to me.

[@thecornerofcraft]

+Kylie C. Oh it's so much better! Enjoy making your blanket!

[@angelicaescalera2941]

Finally I found the video I needed…. Thank you!

[@SomewhereInIndiana1816]

beautiful squares, and great lesson for joining the squares! 👍👋👋😊

[@soniczforever5470]

Your blanket is very pretty, I am making mine in red and yellow. Must try this method. Thank you

[@Minitwill]

Finally! I have spent so many hours looking for a join as you go that only had 2 chains in the corner. Most videos or tutorials I found had 3. I'm fairly new to crochet and have begun a mood blanket. Thank you!

[@PolkaDotPearle]

The thumbnail on this video made me happy!

[@2Arcticwolves]

Finally, someone I can understand and shows how to add more squares. Thank you so much for making this video. :)

[@randomgirll3123]

I'm so happy about this! I can NOT sew to save my life so this is so helpful and it makes my granny squares look so neat. :)

[@rosangelasantos9837]

You know what I like about your tutorial the way you hold the needle because it is the same way I do that. Cute cute Rosangela

[@Bonstergirl1]

Ive been crocheting for many yrs and to me that seems like it takes more time.. I could be totally wrong but it seems that way. However, each to their own and each tutorial is a good one so we can find out more info. :)

[@leahoconnor368]

I like how you got the corners nice and square. Now I need to figure out how to get a square "T" join, when joining two 4 inch squares to one 8 inch square.

[@Queenmom313]

LOVE this method...thank you!! It is the best match- up for joining the Granny Square blanket I am working on. Excited and appreciative of your help! : )

[@thecornerofcraft]

+Queenmom313 You're most welcome :D x

[@annenangi3078]

Thankyou

[@SusanDorrington]

Thank-you. That was really easy to follow. I've only used a tapestry needled and sewed mine together in the past so I can't wait to try this method. It looks like the old fashioned granny squares I remember wishing I knew how to create when i was little.

[@miriancuneo843]

I love your method on how to attach granny squared thanks again

[@jooji1979]

This makes life so much easier. Thank you!!!

[@thecornerofcraft]

You're most welcome :D x

[@WildAnieMel]

I subbed thanks to this video. I have been suffering from an annoying case of knitters/crocheters block lately. Wool, needles and hooks at the ready but can not decide what to make but this video has inspired me and given me some ideas. Thanks. :)

[@thecornerofcraft]

WildAnieMel Oh that's the worst! I'm glad I have helped you break through the block!! x

[@bonnie4526]

I love this method is a very easy way of doing the connection

[@maryhull531]

Brilliant tutorial . Thank you.

[@Knittyneeds]

Wow the music is fabulous so is your baby blanket.. Really adorable. A very enjoyable tutorial. I'll be crocheting the Granny Squares YOUR WAY.Thanks for sharing and caring xxx

[@thecornerofcraft]

You're most welcome!! x

[@denisehall6438]

Thank you for this very well done video - I have learned a lot about joining with class!!

[@kat9446]

Thanks for sharing this excellent method.

[@celinejoemascarenhas]

Beautiful work. Enjoyed. Thanks.

[@unadevine7704]

[@CANALPARACONOCERADIOS]

Muy buen video. Gracias por compartir.!!!

[@RajisCraftHobby]

This is awesome..... seems so neat!!!..thanks for sharing😊😊.... I subscribed...🤗🤗😊

[@dawnamendola8690]

Great tutorial ! How many squares did you make for this baby blanket? And what size hook did you use ? Does this need a boarder when your done ? Thanks again !

[@annuraj1933]

Thanks so much for teaching, but when will you be making the border of this blanket.👍👍👍

[@mariaquarterman7079]

I like this very well. It looks very easy I will try this one

[@gerrimoore9643]

Thanks for sharing. I'm definitely going to try this.

[@AnaMariMarcos]

Thank ou so much!!!! I needed this and I love it!

[@phoebeegray]

Great video!!! Very useful, thank you!!!!

[@karenwatkins4122]

Thankyou l just found this tutorial hope and pray Gods Blessing and protection on you and husband

[@chandrajones2393]

Thank you! after i got the hang of it, its easy! thank you!

[@chandrajones2393]

question. had an idea for another blanket that i could join squares. but my question is you can change the color of the joining squares to different colors for each square cant you? that way they look sewn together but really crocheted right??

[@ingebergakker4434]

Oh my.. this is amazing but I went through all your vids and can't find how you made the patches. Can you show me where that is??

[@crazybooklady2104]

this is so easy looking ;) and the neatest.

[@mandyadsett126]

Brilliant, great tutorial thank you ❤❤❤

[@tracysterio1236]

i liked that way u join the squares cool happy croching

[@carinevanalderweireldt8972]

Tracy Sterio

[@laurawilkinson8049]

Hi, any advice on how to do the same technique to put a border around the blanket? Unsure of how many double crochets to put in the gaps between the joins and how many chains between each. Thanks

[@mary-margaretnapolitano8319]

That's brilliant, so I'm wondering, do you have any FANTASTIC methods for eliminating that so tedious task of weaving in all those annoying ends of your yarn after each row and each square is complete. That's ALWAYS been my biggest problem with granny squares, even through i love them?

[@thecornerofcraft]

I don't have any methods for that I'm afraid! I love weaving in ends :P x

[@whatnikkireads]

Thank you so much for this easy to follow tutorial :) Just followed you both on instagram and twitter, along with subscribing here x

[@JOLENE2008]

i love this way!!

[@MrsMarieMac]

Could you tell me how you do a join as you go with different color squares. I love this method, think it will save me a ton of time putting the squares together but I also have different color squares that need to be put together, such as a gingham pattern. Thanks!

[@thecornerofcraft]

Marie Friess-McSparran Hmmm... I can't personally think of way to join different colours... Are you on the Crochet Mood Blanket 2014 group on Facebook? (I'm admin on it) There are over 12,000 members in it. Surely one of them will know? Sorry I couldn't be more helpful x

[@jooji1979]

Same way for different colors. It might not look that pretty though. Try it and see.

[@Looryn]

So great, this may inspire me to give granny squares a try :) tfs and you got a new subscriber :D

[@thecornerofcraft]

They're dead simple to make! I hope that you do try them out and welcome to The C of C! I'm glad you liked the vid enough to stick around :)

[@lisajarvis3820]

Easier and neater ~ ty glad you shared this!

[@lyndaholloway5469]

You make it so easy. Thank you.

[@emilymorales5803]

Nice one ....very neat...thank you so much

[@lalalole5311]

Wow amazing 🥰

[@miriancuneo843]

How do you start from the beginning

[@SMFortissimo]

Your squares match your hair. 😲🤩

[@smerjaiboonkong243]

Thank you so much.

[@karoljelbert9864]

Really enjoyed your tutorial, will def have a go myself. Thank you.

[@sylviadolan1644]

Brilliant - thank you

[@sarah607chang]

This is so perfect

[@TracieHolladay]

OK so correct me if I'm wrong here...BUT....I have a huge stack of small grannies I made in all colors. So let's say I start with a blue granny. I then take my white yarn and add another row to it in white, and *finish that off* - I don't attach it to another square yet. I then would take a second square - let's say orange - and do exactly as I see you doing in this video. Is this correct?

[@thecornerofcraft]

Exactly that!! I foolishly didn't think to explain about the first square but then again, I didn't expect this video to get the attention it did! x

[@ladymorgonna]

Thanks.. I have really been doing mine the hard way lol

[@canela9749]

Thanks, you are beatifull !! ❤❤❤

[@levernelogan4914]

Love this thanks 💕

[@belindaalexander6930]

I have a few squares that I wanna join... With my first square do I need to put a border all the way around it so I have something to join the others to? If that makes sense...

[@thecornerofcraft]

Yes you do :) Your squares are looking good! Very neat :)

[@meralergenc575]

[@annawarden6300]

Goeienaand.Ek wil graag weet watter tipe wol jy gebruik het.Dit lyk of dit rekbaar is.Dankie.☺

[@karoljelbert9864]

Brilliant!!

[@savannahnewton]

Could you make a video about how you see in your ends? Mine always end up wriggling out!

[@thecornerofcraft]

Will do!

[@janisrobertson4285]

Savannah Newton Mearns

[@Julietaescasan]

Hi, I love the method. Do you think you can one more video but this time can you show step by step in normal time, starting at the beginning of the row to the end of the row. Thanks.

[@thecornerofcraft]

+Victoria de Hoyos You can definitely use this method :)

[@janicemaygreco1076]

The Corner of Craft how to crochet flower squares

[@user-jr7ww2gf1h]

Does this work if the squares aren’t shaped the same? Like, if the square has bevels, or bumps?

[@shakiki3]

I'm making a sunburst granny square and I've got all my circles done but I'm having just the worst time connecting them. I've tried to make the last round and single crochet them together and that ended up just terrible. Would you happen to know how to do this with that pattern?

[@boris1665]

Very helpful but how do you actually start with your first and second squares? Thanks

[@thecornerofcraft]

For the first square, you just crochet around the edge in your border colour. The second square is attached by crocheting around 3 of the sides and attaching on the 4th edge in the same way :)

[@assuntavalente6941]

Grazie..... Ho seguito il tuo metodo e ho fatto una coperta matrimoniale..... Adesso non mi ferma più niente

[@laurabronzo7532]

Very well done, I love this method of joining squares! Just a thing: could you work a bit slower? I'm a beginner and I had to rewatch this video so many times. Perfect job tho.

[@kinnarisoni7678]

it really help me ..thx

[@savvyrose88]

My granny squares have 6 rounds...would you do this as the last round of your granny square? That sounds like a dumb question to me, but I'd rather ask and know for sure then mess it up entirely!

[@thecornerofcraft]

Kris Ham Yes you would join as the last round :) It's not a stupid question at all! It's better to ask and to know than mess it up trying to guess! xx

[@teresasanchez756]

Ur the best!!!!😇😇😇

Thank you! Loved this, looks very neat :)

Will it work on a 4 row granny square?

[@lonecedar1659]

Hi, Pretty blanket, do you have the brand and color numbers that you used?

[@thecornerofcraft]

Thank you! I know that the brand is Stylecraft DK yarn. I will pop to the market stall that I bought my yarn from tomorrow afternoon and have a look at what colours I used as I have now lost the labels! :) x

[@thecornerofcraft]

Lone Cedar Hey :) So I used Stylecraft Double Knit yarn in White, Wisteria, Clematis and Cloud Blue. I hope that helps you out!

[@lizmorgan5463]

Brilliant I will do that

[@morleybraun8162]

great application. one frustrating problem for me.... the fast forward was so fast it was impossible to see or grasp the steps you were making. So much easier to grasp when we can hear, and at the same time see what your doing. would definitely subscribe if you would drop the fast forward.
