    I am excited to start on using this join technique for my blanket. I am curious about how you 'fudged' the squares with an extra stitch, as I realized that my squares have 18 stitches. Thanks!

    • @meemamakes
      @meemamakes  Рік тому

      I skipped the first stitch when doing the round of sc, this reduce the stitch count by one so it met the multiple of 3+2. So my squares were 33 stitches, then after the sc round I had 34 stitches instead of 35. Hope this helps!!

      I'm working on the same thing right now! To make this work, I added four dc on each side to make 26 (instead of 3 dc and 5 dc in the chain spaces on the side, I did 4 and 6 :) )

    • @meemamakes
      @meemamakes  5 місяців тому +1

      Yes this is what I would recommend - "fudging" your stitches so adding an extra stitch or taking a stitch out on Round 1 so you have the correct stitch count on Round 2

    This channel has the most beautiful crotchet and I’d really like to learn how to do those squares. The colours are perfectly put together too. I search for UK tutorials and couldn’t believe my luck when I clicked on this channel that the teacher was English, Brilliant I thought but then for some reason the instructions are given in the American terms. I admit I was very annoyed and didn’t understand why a UK teacher would do this. I know the USA audience is bigger than the UK’s but let THEM have to do the conversions, they have loads of channels anyway! Sadly I’ll have to give this channel a miss.

    • @meemamakes
      @meemamakes  7 місяців тому +1

      Sorry to cause frustration and that my channel is not for you. My written patterns are all available in UK terms if there was a particular project you wanted to make.
      I am not chasing the larger audience - I have always used US terms as that was how I learned, and I have many UK friends who prefer to use US terms. I find them more logical, easier to understand, and a wider range of patterns use them (although I learned to read both terminologies early on in my crochet journey). I teach in the terms that I believe most benefit beginner crocheters.
      I believe Bella Coco is one of the largest crochet channels and she teaches UK terms so maybe check her out? Best wishes, Em
