I've always loved but have stayed away from Granny Squares cause I HATE sewing them together (the old-fashioned way) but I'm making a blanket for someone who LOVES Granny Squares and am using your video to join them. THIS IS GREAT! Thank you!
I wanted to say a big thank you too as I've had a couple of orders off you while you were away on you honeymoon and I love the colours. Thanks to your tutorials I have started just my first granny square blanket. (Now I have mastered the squares lol.) Joined my first two together!! 👍🏻😀 xxx
Ima cry! I've been so scared of trying to join the squares in a manner that doesn't leave that RIDGE! This worked so easily!! I learned to make the squares from you, so easy to grasp!! This afghan is for my grandson. It'll be gorgeous, thanks to you!! Keep doing this, you're great! Thanks, Teri, New Orleans Louisiana, America! Happy 2020!
I was avoiding this method because a video that I watched a long time ago over-complicated the process. Then I decided to check this method again and came across your tutorial. You explain it in such an easy and simple way that I got it in a heartbeat. A lot of ppl can crochet but not all can teach. Thank you.
After watching your video I just had to start a blanket immediately, and I did! It's so much fun, and at the same time very relaxing because it's so easy to do.
I like this way you join the Motives together this is the best one I’ve seen on TH-cam thank you for showing your techniques on crocheting the motives together keep up the good work
I do have one question. When I mad my granny squares I did 3 clusters of dc and chained 2. When I start joining them I see you are chaining 1 between the clusters is their any particular reason or should I stay with my chain 2 so it stays with the pattern of my granny square?
I am absolutely in love with the join as you go. I will admit I was quite skeptical in my skills to do it as easily and as beautifully as so many others have. But I just went for and it is so fun and works up quickly. I do recommend it to everyone interested in the qranny squares. Thank you Belle Coco for your time in making these wonderful tutorials. 💕
You’re an angel for also mention what is terms😭 I’m pretty good at remembering the difference between the USA and everyone else but I just want to thank you for including my stupid country’s crochet terms
Being left handed I had to watch you video multiple times to get what I was looking for but this was exactly what I was looking for. I have a granny square blanket that I have been trying to figure out how to put together and now I can. Thank you very much.
thank you so much dear .finally I can join my granny squares by this way. I searched many sites about it but your video is the best ! best wishes for you :)
I'm in love with this video. Mainly because I was one of those who couldn't figure out exactly how to start the 'Join as you go' method, after watching the other video of yours. In the end, I figured it out, after requesting you make this video. But unfortunately after getting so far with my blanket, my depression kicked in and for two weeks, I've either slept all day everyday or cried, or just had no motivation to do anything what so ever. So, to wrap my comment up, I want to say a huge huge thank you for making this video, as like I say, I eventually worked it out myself, but after two weeks of hating life, I've come to forget just how to Cross stitch. Whereas now I can get straight back into making my blanket bigger :-) and to move onto other projects. Thanks so much. :)
+Bella Coco so I kinda had a bad time with my depression and Thyroid disorder, which caused another break in my blanket, but I'm pleased to say I'm 8 squares away from finishing it :) before then just sowing in the ends, and I'll show/tag you into a photo on Instagram xxx Can't wait (whilst I'm ok) to start another project :) xxx
Straight and to the point. One thing that has always annoyed me about crochet tutorials is how they ALWAYS assume that you are a complete beginner and don’t know how to make a chain or a treble, etc. thank you 🍧
Thank You. I have heard about join as you go for years but tried it and always got confused. You show everything slow enough for me to see what you’re doing as well as explaining it very well so that I understand it all without having to rewind or rewind it multiple times lol. Thank You!
i hate sewing any work together its usually there that the project looks so messy but I am delighted to find such an easy to follow tutorial on how to join granny squares, thank you, I am an experienced crocheter and i dont need to sewany more ;o) thats so fabulous for me I can now make granny square blakets with out the worry x
OMG I get it!!!! I've watched so many videos on how to do this, but since I never got it, I had to keep sewing my squares together! I FINALLY get it!!!! Thank you!!!!!
I wasn't going to make any more granny squares because I didn't like sewing them all tog. But you have made it so easy I think I will make one of yours! Thank you so much, love your work.
Thank you for explaining this so clearly from the first square. As others have said, you explain it so clearly that I have the confidence to crack on and join my first 20 squares into a cot blanket 🙏😊
Thanks for the great video, after many years of joining the squares old fashioned way, you have helped me to master join as you go Phew only another hundred togo. ❤
i really liked your Technic for the join as you go method I'm actually making a blanket with the join as you go method just now and its very easy, I really like watching your crochet videos you have inspired me to make a multiple stuff while crocheting over the past view years, thank you
Excellent video! You explained everything well and have a very pleasant voice. I like that you showed from the start to the finish, and how to do joining two two corner pieces on the inside rows of the blanket. I have some pretty varigated leftover yarn that I'd like to make granny square centers with and it think the join as you go method is going to save me a ton of time not having to tie up loose ends. Thank you!!
Fabulous video, thank you! I will take apart my squares that I attached via whip stitch back loops only and re-connect them using this method for a much neater appearance and a better connection! Thank goodness I found your video before I connected anymore squares!
I have learned so much from all your tutorials thank you and now I will do the join as you go, the granny square is one of my favorites to do, but I always struggled with joining.
Thank you for these instructions, join as you go. I stopped making square afghans because after making all the squares I had to join them all, somewhat tiring to say the least!
Thank you for all the great videos! I'm having a great time learning how to craft all these pretty things, wich has previously been tricky for me. Keep up the great work! :)
I belong to a knitting/crochet hook and donate all our work. someone always joins my squares the lady who does is is 90 years old but when I saw your video I think I will try and do some myself. We make laps with 20 squares for wheel chairs so I sometimes make 2 a week.. I will be able to at least put one together myself.
Do you make an entire row first, then start adding new squares? i love how your videos are very clear, and that by using light colors it's easy to see what you are doing!
Can you use this method when your granny squares are solid? I just learned to make the solid granny squares from your tutorials and want to join them - I watched your tutorial on how to do that but I like the as you go idea.... Being super new to crochet I realize this could be such a stupid question 😜
This channel was recommended to me I managed to follow the join for the first square to the second, but cannot understand how to add the next one along, or do you have a more updated tutorial, help! X
Thanks for making it seem so simple. I love your videos and have learnt most of my crochet through them. One Q though: what do you do if you've done only two chains in the corner (instead of three as shown here)?
You're very welcome, I'm glad you find my videos helpful 😊 It doesn't make a difference if you only have two chains in the corner, just work in exactly the same way as shown in the video.
I love all your videos. I'm new to crocheting and I've learned so much from you. I have a question regarding join as you go.I block my granny squares and I'm wondering how I would incorporate this method when I have to block first. If I block the square and then attach I'm assuming that the blocked squares will be a guide so when I'm doing the joining stitches it will stay even all the way around. Or would I block the entire work once I'm done? Thank you! Again, I love all your videos.
Thank you for video. Does it matter if you go over or under when connecting the squares? I've started a project and have gone under. Not sure if I should change it now.
❤thank you for your easy to follow tutorial! I am wondering if I can join my squares as I make them, or would it be best to complete them all then join?
You're welcome! It's entirely up to you when you going them, there is no right or wrong answer 😊 I would say that the advantage of joining them as you make them is that you can see more accurately how big your project is getting.
My question is how do you start the border with the first square? When I try to start double crochet doesnt work? How many doubles do you do in the space? Thanks its a fun blanket to make. Love your videos
I've always loved but have stayed away from Granny Squares cause I HATE sewing them together (the old-fashioned way) but I'm making a blanket for someone who LOVES Granny Squares and am using your video to join them. THIS IS GREAT! Thank you!

Thank you for this video, I had a stack of granny squares and was too scared to join them now I have an afghan in progress!
I love this way of joining granny squares because it's flat. It's also so fast and easy. I love your tutorials. Thank you!
You're very welcome :)
After watching your video I just had to start a blanket immediately, and I did!
It's so much fun, and at the same time very relaxing because it's so easy to do.
yay! glad it helped xx
I like this way you join the Motives together this is the best one I’ve seen on TH-cam thank you for showing your techniques on crocheting the motives together keep up the good work
I agree, others really complicate the process when in fact it super simple.
This is perfect. I just started a stack of Granny Squares. I didn't want to wait until I had hundreds of them to join. I like this method very much.
Glad it's of use to you :)
I do have one question. When I mad my granny squares I did 3 clusters of dc and chained 2. When I start joining them I see you are chaining 1 between the clusters is their any particular reason or should I stay with my chain 2 so it stays with the pattern of my granny square?

Thankyou for this. I have just found it. You explain things so simply and crochet slowly so we can all see whats happening. Thanks again, Kathy

Thank you so much! I used this tutorial for connecting my starburst granny squares, and it worked perfectly! Thank you again!
Wow I was just wondering if I can join my sunburst granny square with this method but now that you said you were successful I'll try as well
I love your British accent when you say "yarn over" 😂
Thanks for the great video, after many years of joining the squares old fashioned way, you have helped me to master join as you go Phew only another hundred togo. ❤
You are very welcome :)
This is just what I needed for joining my sunburst grannys to make a pocho like sweater!

Thank you so much! Wonderful video and very easy to follow! I'm excited to start my first granny square blanket.
You are a good teacher. I’m so excited to work on this!!!
Thank you :)
Thank you,it looks much easier than sewing them together. I will use this in my new project.
