How to Crochet Straight Edges with Popular Crochet Stitches

[@ruthieshields189]

GENIUS! I’ve been crocheting since me and Jesus were in high school 🤣 and I’ve never seen these! Thank you for sharing Donna! This will definitely be implemented in my projects from now on . 🥰🧶

Glad it was helpful!

Bwahahaha same here! These are brilliant!

Please don’t use Jesus’s name in your silly jokes 😡😡

[@ruthieshields189]

@@Grany571 there was no offense intended. I was simply implying how old I am and it’s my first amendment right to free speech that allows me to say whatever I want. And if you don’t think God/Jesus (because they’re the same) has a sense of humor you’re sadly mistaken. Look at the platypus. 😑🤣 Oh! I almost forgot…May God keep and bless you should he see fit to do so. Have a lovely day.🥰

[@babujaan18]

Greetings from Mumbai, India. Soooo happy to have come across this video as I am making a baby blanky which I have unraveled a zillion times as I wasnt happy with the edging. Now in this final attempt, I have followed your instructions for double crochet and cannot tell you how great it now looks. Cant thank you enough for this video. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@naztazia]

Wonderful! Happy to help!

[@mfelix1147]

Thank you so much for this tip. I love your nail polish 💅🏻

[@marys5009]

Wow what a good idea, I have been trying to rid the bumps . Thank You for all of your videos. My crocheting has been getting better with your instructions. Been watching for the last few years. Thank You again.

[@naztazia]

You are so welcome!

[@Dilsar4536]

I find the second method easier than the first one. This is the best way to get straight edge .

[@janikusu8677]

i used to struggle with the first method but i altered it to make it easier for me to crochet. instead of wrapping the hook and holding on tight, i twist the yarn before i insert into the stitch. then i just flick the twisted yarn over my hook before the final pull through two. that's what works for me these days anyway, i think it looks nicer than the stacked stitches

[@ivysilk6983]

Desde Buenos Aires comienzo a seguirte hoy 19/2/24 con esta genial forma de dejar parejas las terminaciones. Maravilloso!! Hace 50 años que tejo crochet, me encanta. Cariños

[@naztazia]

🥰

[@mariacedeno5380]

Yo aprendí la 1ra de estas técnicas el año pasado con una youtuber argentina que tiene un canal, también excelente, dedicado al crochet!..

[@txgrandma3]

I've been experimenting with various techniques to eliminate the gap caused by the turning chain. This is the best tutorial so far. I prefer the first one for double crochet & the second one for single crochet. Thanks for sharing!

[@naztazia]

Glad it helped!

[@lprice2826]

You are amazing. I was watching this technique on a different channel. I could not understand until I watched your video. All your tutorials are wonderful. .

[@naztazia]

Thanks very much! 🥰

[@katrinagreely5399]

I love the stacked singles, but have never tried using it on the very first stitch in the starting chain. I’m going to start doing that now. Thanks! And your nails are gorgeous! 🤩

[@naztazia]

Thank you!

[@merrymuriel]

[@l.a.w.79]

Oooohhhh that second technique must be the stacked single crochet!!!!!

[@secretsquirrel7300]

I really love your way of doing straight edges. I've seen other ls do it differently, and prefer your first way much more

Donna, this is AMAZING! I have been struggling with making straight edges, almost to the point of tears! I have so many things I want to make but finding that last stitch was difficult. You are the best teacher ever! I like to use markers but i know the placement is always off. Goodbye tears!

[@kyonnal1103]

Good morning Donna so I have a question I’m doing a lemon peel stitch pillow chained 57. is the solution to straight edges pretty much not chaining one even if the pattern says so? because my pattern is chain 57 (skip to second stitch sc stitch across all 57) then once I get to end chain one turn work and begin (sc)(dc) my edges are not too straight but I believe it’s because of that chain one instead of just turning as I’m watching your examples it makes so much sense as to why I believe the straight edges method would be just to turn and not chain one.

[@SabrinaSmith-s3j]

How long is the chain to begin with? I ❤️❤️❤️ your nails. They're beautiful!

[@bonniemorris514]

Thankyou for your wisdom. Does this change the count along the row or will the count be the same. Thankyou

[@naztazia]

It would be the same stitch count. This stitch would just replace the first stitch, which is usually a chain 2 or 3.
