[@mls_words_of_wisdom]

I am just getting ready to attach a bunch of crochet blocks together for the daughter’s “going away to college” blanket and I will try these out to see which one she wants. Thanks so much!

[@jahbern]

How sweet! I’m just about to do the same for my daughter headed off to college in August. We live in Florida and she’s going to Michigan, so she’ll need something warm to remember us by ❤️

[@cleetus_]

Aww! Im a teen and have been crocheting for a couple years now. I look up to y’all! Hopefully i can do the same for my (hopefully) future kids!! xx

[@aliceshulz]

Thanks for a lovely tutorial ❤will use joining my next squares for another woollen blanket🎉

[@daniellesmith7301]

Does the back look the same as the front?

[@Goodnightxoxo]

[@mls_words_of_wisdom]

Love those colors too

[@carolinetemaipi571]

I love 💕 This program how to join your square to gether 🌹 a rose for yu

[@dribblet]

I've never seen anyone crochet so clean!

[@mdbw3411]

I had never joined squares before, but this video inspired me to make a whole granny square blanket and join my squares with the mattress stitch! Thanks Toni 💛

[@reading.with.creepy.crawlies]

Good for you! Granny square blankets are a great project that can be completed in stages. I l9ve them.

[@babiifrshj07]

The mattress stitch is like magic. Wow.

[@claremorley9845]

Oh, I like that last one: flat slip stitch seam. New one to me! Thank you 😊💓

[@conceicaoquevedo6940]

Eu também gostei do último.

[@bananafishu]

I was struggling with the slip stitch seam and thanks to your video I finally got it, thank you so much!

[@HellenaHanbasquet]

I've been crocheting for many years, this is a great tutorial. Your explanation is easy to follow and your work is gorgeous. I wish I had this (or even KZbin for that matter ) when I started. ❤️

[@crystalrose8658]

Everything is sp clear and neat !!! The crochet, the work, the explanation, EVERYTHING !!

[@LilRedHead42]

Thank you for breaking these down in such an easy way to follow and see the differences. Really appreciate how much you do for the crochet community.

[@theresa2084]

The Flat slip stitch seam is the holy grail of seaming stitches!! Thank you so much!🥰

[@gabbym333]

Thank you for going so slow and showing everything step by step! Normally crochet videos go so fast, I have to slow down the speed, and pause it multiple times. This tutorial was much easier to understand!

[@shannonirion5234]

The flat slip stitch seam was exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much for your wonderful tutorial

[@meganhuff2346]

I've been a fan of mattress seaming, but after watching this I've been doing it wrong lol. I always appreciate how you break things down, thank you for the crochet academy.

[@mariedixon9082]

Perfect timing! I just finished a whole bunch of squares that need joining to make a blanket. Thank you.

[@mls_words_of_wisdom]

Me too!!!!

[@sportnenny]

really like seeing seaming techniques all together so i can compare them, thanks for the vid!

[@lol-de8yx]

This is literally what I was waiting for these days, Toni, thank you so much, love your channel and your calming voice:)

[@reading.with.creepy.crawlies]

Toni's voice is so calm and patient. Crafter's cannot choice their voices, but some are unaware of the pitch or speed at which they talk. 😬 Toni's voice is calming - like ocean waves on a calm day. 🏖

[@jackieann5494]

You're a GOOD teacher 🎉

[@cindycecconello7121]

Live the mattress stitch. I never saw that before. It looks so nice. Can’t wait to try it. Thanks so much. Cindy

[@smmills1094]

This has helped me so much! Only just learned to crochet (and still early days) but I made 42 Granny squares for a baby blanket with NO IDEA how best to join them. The flat slip stitch seam you've shared here is the perfect method - it looks so pretty against all the other bright colours. Thank you!

[@beverlyrosson3026]

I have been a crocheter for more than 40 years and I keep up with changes and new ideas through You Tube. You are, by far, my favorite instructer....I love the way you describe and demonstrate all your tips, tricks, stitches,..everything. I have learned sooo much from you and love your projects !!! My next step is Tunisian and I can't wait to start. Thank you for everything you do for us !!!!!

[@ConnyNordlicht]

First time I understood matraze - stitch made by crocheting! WoW, thank you so much! I'm a knitting teacher and knit since ab.44 years, but specificly this one crochet stitch I was blind for. So you helt the light for me and made my day. Thanks and be blessed!Btw now myself disabled, not „only“ an ambulant whellzdriver I can't teach anymore, but give short tipps to all who ask. Now they all want all for nothing, although my money is less, way less than before and that was only as much as I needed and a bit I could give to pple in need. Now often I'm in need and noone cares. Without a few friends who are with me although my life now is I'd never be there anymore. I learned: Friends are worth way more than to be healthy. God is worth more than everything on earth. Td Be blessed and be healthy and „feed your friends“ ;)

[@denisespencer6550]

Thank you for teaching me how to join the squares in different ways. Big up to you! Keep doing the good work!

[@madisoncavaness-furlong]

I am in awe at that mattress stitch! Amazing!! You made my day!

[@debrichardlaplante7178]

I watched many joining videos and found that your video was clear and concise. Thank you for that.

[@damnstuffdoodle]

I've been here for less than 30 seconds and I already wanted to comment and show my gratitude to this video and to you, the fact that you go straight to the point and have everything splitter makes it so much easy for me to finish my project 😅 thank you. This is amazing and truly a valuable content ❤

[@gxcloudz]

Thank you, I’m working on a granny square tote bag and this is exactly what I was looking for!

[@Chickenrun666]

[@deennapirilli3823]

The best and clearest explanation of how to join granny squares using the slip stitch, thank you!!

[@juliaplowman5423]

I have made countless attempts to do blankets in crochet since starting to self teach during the pandemic, and the flat slip method was exactly what I was looking for

[@izsakemma126]

That was soooooo helpful! Thank you very much! I'm making a bag for my sister, and that was exactly what i needed!❤

[@izsakemma126]

Sorry if my spelling is bad, my english is not on a native level

[@shola7987]

The flat slip stitch is so nice I will try that one for my temperatire blanket hexagons

[@DiannaLucas-t6h]

I have watched a lot of videos on how to join granny squares. I watched a lot because I wasn't getting what the others were communicating. I watched you and "got it" immediately. You were clear and concise and made perfect sense. Thank you!

[@susancraig4190]

I love your web site. I’m not good at knitting or crocheting but you have taught me how to find errors and correct them. It like you are my Bible of knitting and crocheting. God Bless You

[@kaylamarshall6756]

The flat slip stitch is gorgeous. 😍

[@CoolCraftyCreations]

The slip stitch is my number 1 FAVORITE! So clean and neat!

[@PatriciaLane-kb9ru]

Hello Toni. Thank you for this video, it was very helpful for joining granny squares it was very helpful. I am making a granny square blanket from a baby blanket that I made for my youngest daughter about twenty years ago. Omg what a way for me to challenge myself to a challenge for me to finish a project. Please wish me luck Toni and who ever reads this comment. Happy stitching everyone.🧶🧶🧶

[@marisymington6567]

i love your detailed instructions. Thank u

[@lisabaxley271]

Excellent tutorial!! Thank you.....

[@lenaeliza7230]

I'm mesmerized when you pull the mattress stitch and it just disappears into the seam. I love it!!! Thank you!

[@susanwalker6271]

great tutorial! You get right to the stitches without blabbing on forever before showing the stitches like other KZbin Crochet videos too. Your directions are great! Thank you!

[@lthom5158]

This is the clearest explanation of how to join squares I have seen! Thank You for this video!

[@reading.with.creepy.crawlies]

Thank you Toni! Friends who have picked up crochet as a hobby over the past two years (2020-2022) have conquered the granny square to establish tension and gauge. Now they have lots of squares. This video gives them four great options to tackle their squares. 👍🏻 I have been following you for at least 5 years(you still had a full time job) on Instagram, and find your tutorials, live videos, and creations to be wonderful. I love your patient voice most of all. Seeing how other people crochet the same connecting methods can help refine a skill, even if it has been performed for 40 years or more. The right teacher can make all the difference. ❤

[@kathyearixson5388]

Thank you so much for the tutorial. I’ve put off making granny square blankets for years because I couldn’t work out how to attach them. This has helped tremendously. Many thanks.

[@ROLCY2024]

Love all your demonstrations. They are so informative.

[@dorcaswalker1867]

[@shiroshuo]

Honestly a lifesaver for having needle and crochet needle options compiled in this video. I only have a crochet needle and don't want to invest too much on supplies for my first project. But since I find myself getting into it, I want to learn more to make patterns of my own

[@kimrogers1829]

I absolutely love you tutorials. As a newbie, I love the way you explain. Especially when you say things like if you pull too tight, it will pucker. I love that because I also know what's going wrong. Absolutely the best!

[@TuellTimeAdventures]

Thank you for showing how to do the Flat Slip Stitch Seam. Your instructions were clear and easy to understand, and I had no problems following along as I did with other tutorials. Thanks again!

[@mogy6492]

Just started crocheting and I already have a bunch of squares ready to become something so went searching for a tutorial on connecting them, absolutely love this video

[@charlottepatterson2864]

Great video! Clear instructions and demonstrations with no time wasted on chit chat. I’ll be back!

[@lettitiatownsend-thompson1968]

I am new to crochet and I'm learning so much from your tutorials.

[@randi1984]

I just asked in a group about different ways to attach my blocks besides the whip stitch and so many people shared your video! Thank you for these!
