Thanks for putting in timestamps! This will be a good video to use as a reference.

Just what I was searching for...all in one video. Thanks.

[@CrochetWithTiffany]

Glad I could help!

Absence brilliant. Clear instructions. So much information a great help. Thanks sooo much

[@TraceyRoberts-z9l]

A great help thanks. So clear. Absolutely brilliant

[@jamesclaire115]

I have used several of these methods to join the granny squares of my many projects together. I also use small 6 inch pieces of yarn to keep my squares "squared" off and plumb as l am working the squares together. This works very well with large afghan projects and gives a great final squared away look to the blanket. I am now trying the circle in a square pattern and l hope to learn the puff stitch soon. My daughter has five afghans, my wife has two and my grandson also has one. All three brag about grandpa's work. Thanks for a great and very informative video.

[@CynthiaSamuels]

@jamesclaire115 Can you expand on you use the 6” piece of yarn so your squares are Squared?

[@Mina-12128]

@@CynthiaSamuels I think he means that he saves the last row of the square until it's time to put it all together.

[@TheDrmr567]

I'm glad I now have just one video to refer to for whatever join I choose! Thank you!

[@ginabirks4910]

These methods have been so good to watch, it means you can pick which you use, depending on what you are making. Thanks very much for the well made tutorial.

[@MoonStone_Empress]

I really love that as soon as I think of a question, it's getting answered. Great tutorial.

[@suekayknits4284]

OMG I have come back to crocheting after knitting for many years and need to learn so many techniques. Your video is just amazing. Thank you so much for taking the time to make such an in-depth video about all the different methods of joining. Many videos do not go into how to join more squares. This tutorial is one of the best on the internet. Again many thanks for such a wonderful tutorial.

[@nishthaindrasha7216]

I have never Joined before and found all other videos confusing. Yours is the one I finally stopped at. Now I am ready to start joining. How you structured your video, in terms of including the seven options, explaining each in detail... Did the trick for me. Congrats on a video very well conceived and executed. Thankyou for offering it here.

[@CrochetWithTiffany]

You are Most welcome Nishtha! I feel that all videos should be this way, explaining everything someone might run into. Thank you so much for your uplifting and beautiful comment and thank you for watching! 😊🧶❤️

[@melissahenry2528]

Thank you so much! I've been crocheting for over 40 years on and off and didn't know all of these. I'm super grateful for your tutorials. 💓

[@fujierobesky5651]

Great tutorial! Having 136 squares ready to join and having your great instructions saved me hours of testing. After watching I knew which one to use. The monochrome square that appears on the side was fantastic idea so I can now refer to them if I do monochrome squares. Thank you over and over.

[@mairemcgarvey1297]

BRILLIANT tutorial. I have never done anything like that. AMAZING. I have knitted motired squares for a Children's Hospital i had no IDEA how to join them .i think ill start with no 6 see how i go.... you are just gifted. Thank you so much for showing how to make this these beautiful blankets joining ...God BLESS Stay Safe xx

[@lisahopkins4379]

These are all great ways, and I will definitely be using them in the future! Right now, I am making blankets to donate to hospice. My mom passed recently, and we received a beautiful blanket from The Families of Hospice. So I am using my time making blankets to give back ❤❤❤❤ The size if you are curious is 40x40. I am just finishing my second one. It's helping me deal with my grief😊.

[@shaydaslays]

Thank you so much, this is just what I needed. I was following another tutorial and got lost when joining my squares. They used a single crotchet method as well. You're the only crotchet channel that has good sound and good instructions. I only had to watch 1 times to get it 😂 ughh that's so great from a beginner standpoint!

[@elainedadson2313]

Very clear and informative video. So easy to follow. Thank you very much. A great tutorial xx

[@catherinefrohwerk8771]

Thanks so much . Love the joining of the 4 corners as I always had trouble at the 4 corners. Thanks again Tiffany.

[@RIODJENIRO1]

The last join you shared would be lovely to use to join panels for a cute summer top, poncho, dress, sweater, so many pretty choices. Thanks for sharing, will save this tutorial to my library.

[@WarmCatFurniture]

Thank you so much, the slip stitch and chain is a project saver - a beginner knitter has asked me to crochet her knitted squares together but they are very irregular in places and sometimes varying in size. This should give me flexibility in the join by varying the chain size where necessary - fingers crossed so that I can try then to even up even further by adding a border.

[@gwendyrose8905]

I've been fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to teach both of my sons how to knit and crochet. While discussing the upcoming summer plans with my youngest, he informed me that he has started working on a cardigan using triangle motifs. I asked him if he was using a pattern and he informed me he was "just making it up as I go along." He was originally thinking about just sewing them together, but I reminded him that by crocheting them together, he could use a different color to help "make it pop." I stumbled across this video while looking for some inspiration to pass along to him and this video is PERFECT!!! He's a very "colorful" teenager and I know that he'll come up with something fun. 😁 Also, I am crocheting a baby afghan for my boyfriend's niece using a pattern I recently stumbled across called a "Stained Glass Granny Square." I LOVED the look of the pattern and thought it would make a wonderful baby afghan if done in pastels instead of the colors that were demonstrated. I've got about half of the squares done, but I was still trying to decide how I wanted to join them together. After watching this video, I think I've finally decided what I want to do. I'm probably going to do a "creative" version of #7 (based a bit on the way the squares are initially done). I was starting to lose a bit of momentum on this project, but this has helped to motivate me to get going on it again! Thanks SO MUCH for such a superb video! You helped me "kill two birds with one stone." 😉😉 I will have to check out your channel later to see what other "goodies" you have lurking around. 😁

[@debbye9895]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO !!! I am putting together blankets for my 2 upcoming grandsons. Before I have always crocheted one big square, including the one for me that falls off all 4 sides of a king size bed. I was afraid to sew the squares together, so now I have over 1000 squares ! Thank you for putting me at ease. I used #3 - the single crochet method. THANK YOU AGAIN !!!!!!

[@CrochetWithTiffany]

Over 1,000 square!! Oh girl 🤯🤯. I’m so glad you found my video and that my video put you at ease to join your squares. #3 is a beautiful join! Love it!! Thank you so much for watching and crocheting with me! 😊🧶❤️

Thank you so much for this fabulous tutorial. I am attempting my first granny square cardigan and am visiting different sites to determine which method to use. One you didn't mention is the join as you go, however, I haven't decided for certain which I will use. As far as the person who reprimanded you for talking down to your viewers, she was way off base. I thought your comments were so clear and your camera views were wonderful. Thank you!

I do something similar to #6. Slip stitch on backside but I sew it rather than crochet. Leaves a similar effect. This tutorial is amazing. I am a visual learner and struggle to follow a pattern without guidence. I cannot express how helpful this tutorial is for me. Thank you so much.❤

Thanks so much for putting this video together. I am joining squares with an opposing color and I wanted the stitch to pop and define each square. I'm going to use the slip stitch front side, it's exactly what I was looking for.

[@patpowell6684]

I love the reverse single as an ending to a lot of my problems boarders…I haven’t finished watching but, think I may do this in a colour that will really show the stitches definition. Thank you for all the work you have put into this video.

[@CrochetWithTiffany]

The reverse single crochet join is one of my favorites. It pops in a way that is very different and intriguing. With the right color combinations it is very flattering. 🤗❤️🧶

[@liberty8424]

Do you know what brand & colors of yarn this is plz? I can't find Anything like the blue--which I think sets it off!

[@montanalilac]

@@CrochetWithTiffanyI love the look of this stitch in many applications, but I really struggle with it getting too tight. I’ve also found it’s not a very mobile stitch so it doesn’t work well, say, on a hat brim or anything that needs to be a bit stretchy. Do you think it would affect the drape of the attached squares differently than the other joining methods you demonstrated? Fantastic video, btw. It’s going straight to my reference playlist! 💜

I love that reverse single crochet look it’s awesome 👏 and the single crochet on the back loop front loop is also great 👍🏻 but I really think I’d like the reverse single crochet that corded look is amazing and the options would be endless with the color of yarn we use for the join cuz like you said u can use a totally different color from you project for a pop of color! I’m excited to use it!

[@janisstewart2217]

Thank you for this video. It was exactly what I needed and taught so clearly.

[@mariamanuelawahyudi1219]

tq for this tutorial, it really helps me finish my project

[@angelas2831]

I’ve used the mattress stitch on garments which creates an invisible join on both sides of the work. It’s really neat how the yarn just “disappears”. I’ve also used the “join as you go” method for the mile-a-minute strips, but have not tried it on granny squares…wonder if it would work. I recently used the single crochet to join my hexi blanket and like how fast it went. Thanks for showing all these different ways in one video. It’s an awesome resource!!

[@mountainelle]

Great tutorial! I’m a beginner trying to make a granny square cardigan and had no idea how to join my squares! Thank you for the time stamps and going over all the methods and how to join them into panels, I was struggling lol

[@tamiaugustson2562]

I had a difficult time watching this but only because I was focusing on how you hook your yarn with that finger and i dont see how it is comfortable LOL I am making a blanket out of one round granny squares and now have to join over 1000 of these by July. They are 5 different colours as the mum asked for a Navy camo pattern so using the whip stitch just didnt look right. After looking at this vid, i chose #6. I liked 1 and 2, but i cant do the reverse sc and i liked how the squares join with the colours together on 6. Cant wait to see how this plays out Thank you so much for a detailed vid that was well explained! Update: OMG I am loving how this looks!! I'm only working on my 4th row so far. I would've been farther along but I skipped a square on the previous row and had to go back. It's one thing to frog a few rows of stitches, but quite another to have to pull out a full row of joined squares. The join is also making them more square since they are only one row, they tend to be rounded. I wish I could show you how it looks when I finish because I think it's going to be amazing. Thank you again for this wonderful tutorial

[@ImungTjokro715]

Thank you for the tutorial, it's quite easy to understand

[@mardiwilcox2922]

This was an absolutely great tutorial. Thanks!

[@monicahuseby]

I wish we could see the backsides of each one - it would really help me decide which stitch I want to use. And/or a comparison of how they all look side by side at the end would be so helpful!

You are most welcome! Thank you so much for watching! 🤗❤️🧶

[@krisvanallen]

With the backwards single crochet, I stretch the working yarn loop way long with my hook, then I can just swing the needle to pick up the stitches I want. Once I have the loops on the hook, I just tighten back up the working yarn loop. Just works more efficiently for me. I love to use this on the outside edges of blankets-feels very sturdy.
