HAPPY CAL simple double border

whoop whoooop it's up! my 2023 HAPPY CAL is coming along and here's video no 4, how to finish your flat pieces with a beautiful simple double border and thus covering up all those pesky tails! Aagin I try and go nice and slow, so that beginners will feel comfortable crocheting along.
Next up i'm going to show you how to do a striped version of the double border and then finally the special HAPPY POLKA DOT double border. I've uploaded the second part of the Crochet along HAPPY pattern over on Ravelry and there you will find both written instructions and charts for all these border versions. remember that the pattern is 50% off (automatic at checkout!) during the CAL or until November 17th. pattern link here:
www.ravelry.co...
yet another option on how to finish your HAPPY projects is to do a twisted fringe, I'll be doing that on my big Scrappy Happy afghan I'm working on. this gives a beautiful finish and I already have a video available on how to do that, check it out here:
• How to make a twisted ...
the HAPPY CAL is hosted in my facebook group, Tinna's Crochet Club. If you like, you can join in on more crochet along fun there. Ialso have the big raffle for the Terrzzo color pack kit for an original HAPPY blanket is going on! here's the link:

[@TinnaThorudottirThorvaldar]

Definitely!!!!

[@lindabaumunk6916]

I love working on the boarders! I could see the stitches very well even though they were black. It really made a sharp looking project! I can hardly wait for the polka dots 🥰

[@TinnaThorudottirThorvaldar]

Thanks for letting me know ✨✨🩷😘

Tinna, the Happy cal is sooo beautiful...I'm loving it & love your wonderful fun energy ❤🥰

Hello ! First! I’m sorry if my English is not very good. I’m French and I’m beginning mosaic crochet ! And it’s incredible. I love it ❤ Thank you so much for your videos! I love your explications. Your voice is so good! I hope one day that I could make a big blanket just like you ! I’m waiting for your next video ! Take care of you Kiss from Paris ❤

[@heidibobs1510]

I’ve ordered my yarn for this beautiful blanket hopefully it will arrive tomorrow 🙏🏽. And thank you for your wonderful tutorials, I know I’d struggle to make them without your vids. So very much appreciated ❤

[@Kimberly_Knit4Brains]

My hubby "the Brit" loves it when I watch your videos. He'll say, "is that my girl Tinna? Turn her up!" lol😂😂😂❤❤

[@TinnaThorudottirThorvaldar]

Looool love that!! 🤣🩷✨ and here I am thinking I’m too loud! 😉😂😂😂😎 hugs and kisses to both of you 🩷😘😘

[@JazzyJude]

TINNA!!! This is by far the best video in doing the double border! You make it FUN with your light laughter and humor. I am getting ready to do a double border on my blanket but was so scared I would fumble and make a mistake. You explained, so well, in detail, that I feel very confident I can succeed. So THANK YOU for your everlasting teaching in helping me to produce fab crochet projects! 😃👊🏼

[@milabulic]

Off topic...I pray that you, your family and neighbors are safe. I have read about the earthquakes and the eventual eruption of a volcano. Prayers your way 🙏

[@TinnaThorudottirThorvaldar]

Thank you for your concern ❤️ we are at a safe distance here in the capital 🙏🏽 and the town close to the volcano has been evacuated successfully ❤️ the authorities seem to have everything under control and I trust in them. Love and light 😘

[@valeriehowden471]

Love your double border. Makes everything look so professional. Worth every second.

I think the word you were looking for is “pucker!” 😉😘 Thank you for your joyful and generous spirit. So glad I found you during the pandemic. I’m finishing my 8th mosaic crochet blanket from your patterns. HOOKED FOR LIFE! 💛💛💛

[@sonjaburger2736]

Tinna! This looks lovely. Thank you for showing how to do this border. 🌹 Just to tell you... I learned mosaic crochet by watching your one video. And I started off with a big project where it shows a picture. Maybe you will know it... Caledonia. It came out beautiful and since then I was hooked and became addicted to mosaic crochet.🤗 I already made one of a cat and tiger also. Next is a pug doggy.😃 And my last text... I like your craziness.😜 You are just yourself. Keep it going.

[@MsDeepblue2]

Hi Tinna. Love your pot holder! Quick question - should you tie the ends in pairs before trimming to make them more secure or is it not really necessary?

[@TinnaThorudottirThorvaldar]

Thank you 🙏🏽 I dont do that anymore really, find it unnecessary 😘

[@fssgcvbvvdn8951]

مرحبا سيدة تينا ..لو سمحت هل يمكن لنا ان نطلب منك تنفيذ الوسادة العربية..؟

Puckered! Is the word you're looking for when it gets ruckled up!

[@Septcrafter]

Is this part two? I’m a little confused how then videos are coming out

[@TinnaThorudottirThorvaldar]

Well, it’s part 2 of the pattern 🩷 video no 4 I’ve done for the Happy CAL ✨ I’m sorry it seems unorganised, that’s not where I shine! 🙈😅😎🤸🏻‍♀️ last week we did the pattern, flat and in the round. This week flat finishes, double border or twisted fringe. Next week the last bit of the pattern, the happy go lucky charts ✨ and then I’ll be doing a video on how to read the charts, because those are charts only in the pattern 🩷 hope this helps and you’re having fun crocheting along 🩷😘

[@lyndaverhelst1951]

❤❤❤the a$$ of the needle…..love it!!!

[@lyndaverhelst1951]

It will squelch up if the boarder stitches are too tight……

[@Rivr5710]

It would curl up. 😊

[@lorimaag2087]

Hi Tinna...im getting ready to start my border..I watched your other video and I've noticed you did the slip stitch differently in your other video starting in the top chain vs starting in stitch..which should I do? Thanks!

[@TinnaThorudottirThorvaldar]

I’d do it like I show here, that’s how I do it now and think that’s better ❤️ both work though 😘

[@lorimaag2087]

Thank you!!

Haha yeah no that would just be crazy!! This gives such a beautiful finish too, you’ll see! ✨

Dear Tina, I hope you and your family are safe , and your community, with the earthquakes and volcanic activity in Iceland right now. The moment I saw on the news..I thought of our Tina! Please be safe! Let us know❤❤❤

Buckle, crinkle,...I think I saw someone say pucker or bunch. But we know what you mean. I went with a pillow to use up my yarn stash and a pillow form stash. I love this pattern! So many design and colorway options!

[@TinnaThorudottirThorvaldar]

Yes! Great. You’re like a thesaurus 😂😂 thank you ✨ funny how some words just escape you sometimes 😅 love that you’re doing a scrappy happy pillow! ✨

[@susanbernard5317]

Yes, buckle is the word for me too.

[@sallymenezes]

I really really like this pattern of the Happy cal. Black is just so special but difficult to see.

[@TinnaThorudottirThorvaldar]

I know! But it didn’t turn out too bad, for the video I mean, I think (and hope!) you can see it alright 🩷 and for my potholders it turned out just perfect with my black oven ✨🙏🏽🥰

[@sallymenezes]

I liked the video a lot, in fact I like all of your videos because you bring so much fun and laughter along with fantastic design. I spoke for myself being impaired with cataracts it's difficult to use black. But black stove wow.

Ripple is a good word to use also bunch up is another way to say it

I also like "warp", sounds like straight out of some sci-fi 😂
