absolutely never crocheted anything other than a single chain, but now I have my mind set on a bralette but I’m making my own w/o a pattern. this is gonna be fun...

this comment was made a year ago, but i'm just wondering, did you manage to make it? :0

Bless your heart. ♥️ I want to make an Afghan for my grandson. The squares are turned as a diamond shape. So I need to do half squares and only 4. I can find the half a half triangle for solid crochet square and finally found your instructions. They are so clear to follow. Thank you so much! My grandson will be thrilled. Funny story. Archie is ten. I thought boys his age knew of basic colours - red, green, blue, yellow. But he likes teal. 😅 So his Afghan will be off white, medium gray and teal. 😊

Admittedly, I used this pattern for cat ears on a doll. Other triangle patterns just didn't look right on it, but this one does! So thanks for sharing! :)

[@tabbylovesmath173]

Thank you so much! I also want to know how I can make half of this triangle (ie. a 30,60,90 triangle) do you have any tips for that?

[@YayForYarn]

If you wanted half of this same kind of triangle, you could start with half the number of stitches, and only decrease stitches along the one side. I hope this helps!

[@سلطانهالهاشمي]

very nice and easy explained i made triangle to the turki hat (the nose) ...thanks

[@DiannaSimmons]

How awesome

[@tamishayarbrough5]

Thank you so much, for this video. I am well taught in sewing miniature clothing. However, I’d love to learn to crochet. I bought a ton of yarns from a thrift store, still need to buy needles. These triangles would come in extremely handy in doll clothing. I would place two together at the tips for a bikini top. And, use two to make a bikini bottom. I’m not there yet, but I can visualize it well.

you can use them to make hexaflexagons!

[@chunkyanimations8048]

My thought exactly!!

[@chunkyanimations8048]

Crochet each new triangle onto the old one (instead of chaining each time) and crochet along the side where you'd normally put tape and you don't have to sew (I hate sewing)

[@tiponicalvary318]

woah thanks! im so doing this. i saw this and the eye bulge was like a little kid in a cartoo going to the candy store. i love hexaflexagons.

What do you mean by blocking with the triangles? I’m teaching myself to crochet and would like to know some of the projects you’ve used with triangles! I have 3 girls (13, 11, 4... my boy is 16). I’d like to make a blanket for my kids. My goal is to make them each one they can take with them when they leave the nest and many other special occasions! Your video was easy to understand! I look forward to trying this!!!

[@YayForYarn]

Hi! I have a video on blocking here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n569Z6t_hthqb80 Blocking is a way of relaxing the fabric, and getting it to its final look and feel. It can also help fix any curling and make the triangles lay flat. I hope this helps!

[@borispugmomdelyth6244]

I can only crochet triangles. I gave up on crochet a coup years back and gave my hooks away and my yarn. Now I want to crochet triangles and sew together

Great! Have fun with your triangles! There are many things you can make from them!

Great, Colleen! I am so glad you are enjoying crochet!

[@cricketwhisperer4254]

Hi! I have a question. I wanted to make a triangle that was longer (two of its sides longer), would I just reduce the number of stitches on every other row or however many rows to skip?

[@YayForYarn]

Yes, you could just decrease on every other row instead of every row, and that would make it longer. I hope this helps!

[@zainabkazim564]

So for every single crochet do I work it into the chain next to the one from which the yarn is coming out of? Or is that just for the first double crochet of the row?

[@YayForYarn]

Yes, that is for the first single crochet of the row. :)

[@lunarsma8446]

Thanks for this vid! Question- I'm wanting to crochet taller triangles of about 8" across the base to 10-12" up to top point. I'm not sure how to decrease when I need the "tallness" of triangle. Any suggestions? Hugs for all!

[@YayForYarn]

Hi. If you want a triangle that is taller, you'll need to work some plain single crochet rows in between the decrease rows. Maybe you could try working one plain row after every 2 or 3 decrease rows. I hope this helps!

[@amikkwiecien]

I got a question do you have to then skip 2 crochet chanies every time when you start to the end that how triangle because i am very confused.

[@YayForYarn]

Hi Amelia. On the first row, you'll want to skip the first 2 chain stitches and work your first single crochet in the 3rd chain from the hook. On the following rows, you'll chain 1 and turn the work... then, instead of working the first single crochet of the row into the same stitch that the chain is coming out of, you'll work the first single crochet into the following stitch. (This is because we are counting that chain 1 as the first single crochet, and working a single crochet into the same stitch the chain is coming from would be adding a stitch, which is not what we need to do at the beginning of the row.) Then, at the end of the row, we work a single crochet 2 together (sc2tog). The first part of the sc2tog is worked into the last single crochet of the row below, and the second part of the sc2tog is worked into the top of the turning chain from the row below. Does that help? Please let me know if you have any more questions. Thanks!

[@zainabkazim564]

How would I make a smaller triangle using a dk (size 3 ) yarn?

[@YayForYarn]

Using a thinner yarn and a smaller hook will automatically make the finished size of the triangle smaller. You can also make it smaller by starting with fewer stitches in the foundation chain. I hope this helps!

[@specialkayah]

Anyone have a written version of this?

[@katiethompson3187]

Exactly what I was looking for! I have a question, I want to make larger triangles, if I doubled everything up would that work?? Thanks!

[@YayForYarn]

Hi Katie! Yes, doubling the yarn would make the triangles larger. I hope this helps!

[@samyarichards9629]

Is there away to turn that into square? I'm wanting to make a Afghan with different shapes inside of a solid granny square.

[@YayForYarn]

If you want to turn this triangle into a square, you'll probably need to experiment with it a bit. As you crochet around the triangle, you'll need to use smaller stitches around the wider part, and taller stitches around the narrower part of the triangle. I would suggest just trying it out, and experimenting with it to get the square shape you want. I hope this helps!
