[@sandienichols926]

love this but also wanting to know how to tie in the ends please

[@meghen1882]

I agree

[@theperson8453]

Agree

[@daofjudith]

I weave my ends in

[@andreeavacarciuc2090]

Make a knot as close to the squares as possible,i do that

[@n.alshehhi893]

Just double knot to secure and weave in

[@marionwhittemore4352]

I've watched several joining videos and this is by far the simplest and explained the fullest. So, thank you for that. I learned how to crochet a couple of years ago by watching one of your scarf videos and have loved it ever since.

😭😭😭I wanna know toooooooo

[@sophiacoble1898]

I cut both ends so I'm left with two strands on each side. I tied both strings together to create a square knot. Hope this helps! :)

[@ZiggiTyler]

I followed this and it came out perfectly!! My frustration, though, is that there are never videos showing how to do more. The first two square I joined were absolutely seamless. I tried to add a third square to make a row and it looks absolutely horrendous and I did the exact same thing. Has anyone found a video where they add multiple squares? I have no clue what I’m doing wrong and I’ve been trying multiple times and it’s always when I try to add a square problems arise. Thank you!

[@melissabassil8815]

Yes! Take a look at this video. It shows you how to join corners between 4 squares 😊 x kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqKYh2eBjayarpIsi=5gxBeb_1-VEmdaxc

[@saragrace5966]

as a beginner, thank you for making such detailed instructions and going slow so its easy to follow along ❤️

[@laurinedenney7551]

This is a nice video example of a great invisible join. Unfortunately it is incomplete. Rarely do we only join two squares.... It would be nice to see this video showing how to do this joining method with four squares so that we would get a more complete picture of how the join is completed. I see that the question has been asked numerous times yet never answered. I can only wonder what the message is here.....

[@laradoria8036]

isn’t it the same thing for all of them??

[@blueismylove3128]

@@laradoria8036 No. Sometimes the sides don't have loops that you can easily seam together, like if you did a rib stitch pattern.

[@lucyauma4327]

New to crochet myself...just came across this tutorial kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3bVnXeXfZanoc0, Try and see if if it is of help.

[@lucyauma4327]

If it is doable and won't affect the size and look of your work you could consider doing single crochet all the way round. There is additional work involved though.

[@Tanner_PookieBoo]

I’ve tried several videos on how to crochet and it’s SO HARD. I’m currently trying to make a quilt with the granny squares that my great grandma made before she passed away. I miss her.❤

[@Emma-wc5ks]

i am so sorry for your loss ❤

[@godcrochetchatter9234]

Just a tip. I really do appreciate all the effort it involves putting up a viedo. But I do have a request. It is really great learning this technique, but a lot of viedoes fall short on their lessons. I am a very visual person and need more of a complete picture. I love this join. It would be awesome if tutorials such as this could show like three squares across and three down showing how to do additional rows and those corners. It could even be smaller squares. I do love this join but I get stuck on the rest of it. Again I do understand the work and effort it takes and I admire how there are those who can take it from here, me not so much, heck I get lost in a paper bag. I have to pack a suitcase just to go to the store in case I get turned around and lost lol. Hugs

[@kaydavis2310]

Oh thank goodness its bot just me. I found this video the best to follow but also found other videos do exactly the same. They need to cover the issues of adding extra squares.

Aw I just want to say that you asked this question in the most lovely way 🥰 that sounds a bit weird ahaha, but instead of just demanding them to make a video or something you just asked in a really lovely, polite way.

[@donnahanson2133]

I have been watching lots of videos on how to join granny squares. This is the best one yet. It will be my go to method to join those squares. Thank you for an easy and well presented video.

[@bhookedcrochet]

Glad it was helpful!

[@rosemarymarie5595]

I have used this method decades ago. I also sew the front loops together. Makes it stronger. It takes longer but kids are hard on crocheted blankets. Especially if you make them from baby yarn. I enjoy watching the videos on how to do things. But I'm one of those that will watch take the idea and then adjust it to what I need. I like to reinforce the corner joinings. Would be impossible to explain. But when you get there figure it out. That's what is the most fun.

[@Landyfunk]

I just tried this and it is actually very easy if you just join all the squares of one row all across your project and then cross that line with another seperate stitching. I Hope that is helpful

[@Landyfunk]

@@shannonr8977 uhm.. I am not a native speaker maybe that's the problem.. I mean if you have your squares and you put them on your table in the order you want them to be sewn together just begin the seam between the first to squares to join only one side of the two squares with the other one and then go all the way to the other edge of the project in a straight line with your seam and always join two squares together (each on only one side of the square) by doing so. and when you are finished with all the seams that go for example from top to bottom THEN you go from left to right all the way across in a straight line. And by doing that you will have to go across the previous seams that went top to bottom in a 90 degree angle I hope you understand 😂 so long

[@ceciliabeam7150]

Thank you so much. I’ve been trying to expand my knowledge for crochet techniques and this was such a clear and simple tutorial. Perfect 🤩 I do think the white on white was a little hard to see but it was still very visible bc of how you place your fingers. Again thank you for such a great video! ♥️

[@commentercommentypants7904]

Thanks for putting this up! I needed something unobtrusive for my project, since I'm working on a pixel art blanket and it would look kind of weird if there was this obvious line where the squares join. Speaking of which, I'm working up around FIVE HUNDRED squares for that blanket. They're small and quick, thank god, but I'll still be working on it for a while yet. Almost done with the third-to-last color! There's around two hundred of the last color...

[@cherrycharlie444]

Hi, it's been 4 years! How's your blanket?

[@ayeshafigueroa3044]

Hi! Thanks for the tutorial. I have a question: after you join the first 2 squares, do you cut the yarn, secure, and then start joining a new square, or do you keep on joining a new square with the same yarn

[@rileyhan3009]

I assume either would work but I’m not a 100 % sure. Also, this probably won’t be helpful considering you commented this 4 years ago

Looks good to me. Nice and flat. My project has multiple random colors so this will be great. I can use any color/s to sew and I'm freaking tired of whipstitching. Thank you for this tutorial.

[@Kbbk915]

Great tutorial. Just the right amount of explanation. I have seen other videos on the invisible joining of granny squares that were a bit more complicated. This one is much simpler and looks great when finished.

[@terrirambo5354]

I love this method of joining the best because it is so neat and makes for a beautiful finish.

[@donnahughes8257]

Question, I just tried this and it came out great. But my question is: If you are putting together an Afghan with lots of blocks, do you end at each block and start again for second block and so on so you always have the two strings to pull at end of granny square?

[@margaretmcneil7182]

Good method but what do you do with your ends, sew or weave them in?

for a bunch of squares, say for a blanket, would it be best to join two, then move up to the next two and so on until the top of the blanket? Or would it be best to do an entire row like this then join the rows?

[@DAEDreamin]

These tutorials never show the back side of the work. I tried this join. It’s only invisible on one side. I’m joining different colors. I need something that is reversible. It has to exist. Sigh
