    Wonderful video!!!
    One request: Toward the end when you were demonstrating a border, I couldn’t quite see how you turned the corner. I know a border wasn’t the point of this video but after what you taught about a granny square, I want to know your way of doing borders!! 😄😄😄❤

    • @crochetrocks

    What a great tutorial, I used to do turning chains too all those years but since I have learned about the stacked single crochet stitch I have never looked back and always do only one chain in my corners too, never turn my work either 😅I am so impressed, you are such a talented person and wonderful inspiration to so many of us out there, bless you 🙌🙌👍💕🙏🏻

    I do my granny squares just like this method only with hdc’s instead of sc’s…US…I do the double stacked sc’s as the 1st chain in everything I crochet
    Very nice tutorial! I like this way! 😊❤

    • @crochetrocks

    This is a complete game changer. I did the turning chains, the slip stitches to the next space. This looks 100% prettier. I've been using the stacked single for years but never thought to incorporate it here. Thank you so much. I love it, I love it, I love it!!

  • @christinebrouwer366
    @christinebrouwer366 Місяць тому +2

    I prefer a tighter square so "ch 1" for the corners and going right into the next chain space without a chain looks way better to me. Thanks for a great video! 😊

No nonsense or distracting music & I like the sense of humour - there you are. Granny squares are great for presebts for “new” grandmums. 💓

    I'm making my 1st daisy granny stitch blanket @ all about ami using 3 colors. Fortunately, I found a video where you don't have to sew in all ends @ made by anita here on YT. And I found a seamless join to close. I'm so excited!!
    After I'm done with that project, I will definitely try this granny square. I'm still a beginner, with my tension being my worst enemy😂. Thank you so much for sharing this.❤❤

    I decided I had better get this firmly fixed in my brain so decided to play and then I remember those times when I had the oops moment.
    There you are, you are crocheting a humongous granny square/ oblong that takes forever to complete a round and there it is a two cluster granny! There’s four options
    1. leave and call it your non deliberate mistake!
    2. Patch in a stitch.
    3. Grit your teeth and pull it out and redo the round or
    4. Do a drop stitch.
    Not being a fan of pulling out hundreds of stitches and knowing a two granny cluster would annoy the heck out of me I worked this out. Instructions in UK speak.
    Work the three trebles in the gap before the two trebles cluster.
    Instead of one loop around the hook work as if for a double treble (3 loops on hook). Insert the hook into the gap to the left of the two trebles from behind the two granny round. (You are working the first part at the back of the square). Pull through yarn, yarn on hook , pull through 2 loops, 3 loops on hook, work one chain. Bring the hook to the front of the work, pull through a loop. 4 loops on hook. Yarn on hook work through 3 loops, finish treble. Keep stitch a little looser but not too loose.
    It sounds complicated but really it isn’t and beats undoing a round that took forever to do in the first place. I hope this helps someone, who, like me who can’t leave mistakes alone.

      Sounds rude when you put it into words lol. My Mother did it like that. When I see people wrapping it right round one finger then the little finger I wonder how the yarn can flow. It what we are used to from day 1 I think 🤟🤟

    Thank you for this informative video! I’ve never liked this chain 3 as a U.S. Dc because it’s always weird. Always doing weird stuff. I’ve been kinda winging a solution for my current project in the round, but your start is much more efficient and elegant. You explained the stacked stitch beautifully.

  • @byDsign
    @byDsign 6 місяців тому +3

    OK, so I'm making a granny-square-like blanket but using the V-stitch (uses less yarn and lighter for tropical climates) and I wish
    I knew about this technique before I started it.
    But... I've incorporated that stacked-single crochet (US terms) at the start of a round and I no longer have that tell-tale sign where
    I'm joining. This is amazing! Been crocheting 50+ years and just now learning this amazing chainless starting technique! 💡

    Good video. I get that you don't like the backside of the stitches, but if you don't turn, won't one whole side be all backside stitches? For those that turn because theirs gets slanted, another positive for turning is that both sides will look the same. Suggesting a HDC instead of a SC, when joining, was a good suggestion.

    This is the only way that looks great N normal lookin!
    I'll never use any other Stitch only the Standing Stitch.
    It just looks better than everything i have tried N I've tried a lot of ways. Even this way i don't like how it leaves extra chains.
    Nice tutorial N thanks for Sharing.

    Thank you. I stopped using a three chain at the beginning of a row or square ages ago because I didn’t like the 'skinny' look. For the want of a better name I call this method of starting a round or row 'stacking.' I do like the way you finish the round, it’s so much better and neater. Like you I don’t do a chain between the groups of trebles because I don’t like a granny square that is too open and the other reason is I would often forget to do it, causing way too much pulling out. Once again thank you for sharing this with us. 👍

    Ohh! Nice one. A great technique. Would use this technique for my granny squares from now on.
    I use another technique though if I crochet in rounds. I essentially "recreate" the stitch. I look at the turning chains as incomplete stitches; they are just missing some parts. I leave a very long yarn tail which I then use to recreate the "missing parts" of the stitches. The seams are almost invisible with this technique which is why I prefer to use it even if it is a bit fiddly and uses an additional tool (a needle).

    Wow! I followed along with you and I'm so excited to make squares for a blanket. The granny square has never been my favorite but I'm really enjoying it. Thank you. 40 years of crocheting I wish I would of discovered sooner. I know what I am doing with my scrapes and yarn where I only have 1 skein. I'm going to make a big blanket. I. Excited!!

    Thank you for a great tutorial. I’m relatively new to crochet and often wondered why everyone seemed to do a chain instead of a stacked stitch (I always do them at the beginning of straight rows). I thought you’d forgotten to do the chain one at the end of the first round but now I understand. ❤🎉

    Yes! Ever since I first saw the stacked stitch I never went back to chaining 😃And so many granny projects done in the corner, it looks so much better. This is the first video I've seen that of how I do it. Except I turn after every round. How do you prevent the inevitable twist?

    Thank you very much! I’m using the chain 1 in corner and the new way to do double crochet and also the single crochet to close the round!!!
