COMPLETE Guide to SPIRALS 1 to 4 Colors PLUS Squaring Them Off! 🤩

[@user-lr9nk8gx2c]

This is a great video. Very easy to follow and understand. However, in squaring off the spiral, if you want to take it to 60 stitches for that round, you need to put 4 stitches in each corner or you only end up with 54 stitches. And it works better to square the corners, with or without a chain space for the corner. Just letting you know what I found after trying thus. I do love the video otherwise.

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Awesome, thanks for sharing 🧶💕

[@ashadowdncr]

It totally made a difference! Thanks!!

[@user-lr9nk8gx2c]

Oops...I meant to say 56 stitches, not 54...

Hi friends! This is a big video but the technique itself is simplified and really easy to do so I hope you'll give this a try. I worked 4 rounds for each tutorial but you can make your spirals as big or as small as you like. Same with squaring them off. If you have any questions, leave them in the comments. xx

I’m a long time crocheter; I also teach. The algorithm chose this video for me. Not too bad. I love spirals! Great for heels in socks, and for using up ends to make dishcloths, cozies for bowls and mason jars. Just remember, if you want to use them in the microwave, they need to be Natural Fiber ends, not acrylic, or poly anything. These will melt. Have fun crocheting! ❤

Sie ändert sich abhängig von der Erhöhungsreihennummer, mit der Sie abschließen. Beispiel: Ihre letzte Runde besteht aus 6 Stb mit einer Zunahme. Verwenden Sie die Zahl 6 als Leitfaden. 6 hStb und 6 feste Maschen, Kettmasche zum Schließen. Ich hoffe, das macht Sinn. Darüber spreche ich bei 7:11 im Video 💕 It will change depending on the increase row number you finish on . Example : your final round is 6dc with an increase.

[@PlayHookywithMe]

No, you’ll have to play with your stitches to straighten out your sides. Takes some trial and error but you’ll find a sequence on the side that you like. If it were me , I’d count how many stitches I have on the side between corners , then divide those stitches up along that side with different height stitches. So that might look like 2dc, 5 hdc, 5sc, 5hdc, 5dc or whatever. 👍🏻💕

It’s hard to explain other than you will divide 6 into 12 and start there with your stitch count.so that means you will start that first round with 2 stitches for each color and go from there. I’d recommend watching the 4 color to get an idea of the stitch sequence and try to follow that method and apply it to 6.
