Jane, your tutorials are awesome. Pleasant voice as well. Your square designs and colors are so tasteful and inspiring. Thank you for sharing your talent and time. 👌😊
Best tutorial for beginners i ever have seen, every step is very good explained and very good to see in your video, big applause! Please give your cat a kiss from Sina ❤❤❤
Jane, I've been crocheting hats for grandchildren for many years, but know I'm making mistakes (and finding creative ways to cover them up). I just completed two of your classes on Skillshare, and what a difference it has made in my work. As many have said, your teaching medhod is superb because you slowly show how each stitch is completed, both in words and videos. Thanks oodles!
I'm so glad you enjoyed my classes on Skillshare, I am actually back with a few more ideas in process for some more crochet classes on there for this fall and winter. Thank you for your kind words, it really means alot to me. I know your grandchildren will treasure your pieces, my nieces and nephews all received sweaters and now that they are having children, they are pulling these sweaters out for their children. My own daughter has taken up crocheting and has made an entire wardrobe of crocheted pieces for herself now. It is wonderful to see the craft take on new life with each generation and that they appreciate the love worked into the pieces ❤
Hi Jane: You have got to be the best instructor! I can’t follow anything from a book. But, I can follow you. You’re so clear about everything that you’re teaching and not covering the stitches with your fingers. Love that you talk us through it. This will be my first project. Your voice is so warming. Thank you for sharing. 💜😎🇺🇸
Specifically, I am noticing you are pulling the new loop up so the hook is level/horizontal... which is what happens when you are pulling up with the hook in your right hand. The 3 loops need to be level, so the 3rd loop is not too tight! Excellant instructions! Yes, threading the yarn through through the needle works best by hiw she folded the yarn over the needle and off, pinching that tiny amount that was over the needle, so she can just push it right through the eye of the needle. Unfokds the tipnif the yarn, already folded & pushed through the needle, being careful to not unthread the needle. I use this same technique for threading hand sewing needles and for threading cross stitch needles with floss; any thing you are stitching with that tends to split apart at the end, use this folded method, for better success. I really like the "invisible join" method of tieing off threads/yarn, too. Her directions were very precise and well explained! You have a new subscriber! Many thanks for teaching the best way for many to learn!
I love everything about you! I want to make a Granny square place mat and a sweet lil napkin holder. Your designs and colors are absolutely beautiful! Please think about it! This would be an air loom price for sure! Thanks!❤
Those sound like great ideas, so glad you like the videos. 9 squares joined like in the image, would make a really nice placemat and then join 2 or 3 squares to make a napkin holder. Awesome home decor idea and gift idea. Thanks so much for watching. 😊
This 3" dot has inspired an idea I have for a project. Thank you for another excellent tutorial. As always, I enjoyed seeing your variations on the square and how you used them in your lovely finished pieces.
Awesome, Now it would depend on the finished size you are going for. I usually measure out my squares, and work it from there. If you are using a join as you go, which adds a little more to it, then consider that will add abit to your blanket size. The example I have in this video is a 9 X 9 piece and it measures 12" X 12". My squares are 3" and I add about 1/4" to 1/2" per sq for the JAYGO method. So say you want a 50" x 50" finished blanket, you would probably be looking at 14 squares x 14 squares which works out to 196 squares. What I love about the JAYGO method is I join them until I like th width and then I join as many rows as I like the length. It's handy that way. Hope all that helps a little bit. Enjoy 😊
Hi Jane!! I just love your videos and I know you have tutorials for the Lacey single crochet continuous join. These dot squares are a little different so would you be able to provide a short video on how to join and number of chains in the corners? Thank you!
I do have one video already for a solid stitch border. I used the Free Spirit Square to demonstrate it. It is very similar to that one, just a smaller square. th-cam.com/video/lhtwKV16bzo/w-d-xo.html As far as the corners go, play around with it, I will use either a chain 2 or a chain 3, depending on how tight I am working that particular day. I like the corners to be square but not over wonky so feel that one out.
I join them using my Join As You Go lacy join method for solid st. You could use a number of methods as well. The 9 x 9 piece in the video is done with the method in this video th-cam.com/video/FgvEGH-ZGcU/w-d-xo.html
Google translated this to me as "shoe laces" I think it might have meant yarn? I have the information about all the yarn I use in my squares on the blog posts for the squares, the link is in the description. Thanks so much
I am not sure how much a rug would take, I have not done this one as a blanket yet. The way I estimate for my projects is to work out one square and weigh it on a kitchen scale and work it out based on the colours used. A rug might need a thicker yarn and a bigger hook. Also to translate this particular tutorial you can choose that option in the youtube settings for captions. I only speak highschool level french, so I would not be much help.
I am not sure where you mean, can you tell me where in the video you are referring to? The sc on the 3rd round is done quite slowly, but I do have another tutorial on this method of starting with a single crochet that is very detailed.
Ok, it is a standing single crochet method. I do have a much slower video explaining this method on my channel. You could also just join with a slip stitch, ch 1 and then work a regular single crochet. The method I used here is another way that just skips the sl st and ch. The video is The Perfect Start: Mastering the Invisible Beginning Single Crochet th-cam.com/video/dS61ILU0_As/w-d-xo.html
It's so adorable!! Love it and will use it to add to my other projects - your tutorials are awesome. Thanks so much 💖
You are so welcome!
Thank You 😊.....I really like the way you explain & you are respectable to us that need to go slow to learn.
You are welcome, I am so glad you found it helpful
Simple but so pretty. Looks like it would create a really cozy afghan.
Thanks
I can’t thank you enough. I’m not a real beginner as I’ve been crocheting for a couple of years but I was mesmerised by your wonderful tutorial ❤️🇬🇧❤️
So glad you like it. It really is a great little square for using up scraps and making easy blankets. Enjoy and thanks for watching
Jane, your tutorials are awesome. Pleasant voice as well. Your square designs and colors are so tasteful and inspiring. Thank you for sharing your talent and time. 👌😊
Thank you so much! so glad you like the squares and the colours 😊

I love the way you teach!!! Wish I saw you when I started crocheting. Last year. Lol
Oh thank you!
Thank you for showing how to weave in the invisible join end !!
You are welcome! 😊
Great teacher ❤! Thank you 👏🏼👏🏼🧓🏻🌵
You are so welcome!
Beautiful work and great tips for joining and sewing in the ends.
Your lacy join is my absolute favorite.

I like the dot one I have to make a baby blanket so I can make little circles and baby yarn so thanks again for inspiration
It will make a great baby blanket!
Getting ready to start this one. Approximately how many squares do you make for a blanket?😊
Awesome, Now it would depend on the finished size you are going for. I usually measure out my squares, and work it from there.

How would you join these? Is possible to do the granny cluster join as you go?

How did you do the border? so pretty
Thanks, this border is similar to alot of my blankets. I show how I do this one in my Daisy Square series on my channel.
Quel fil pour cette beauté couleur, et nr de crochet, pour un petit tapis de chambre. Traduire en francais. Tank jou verry match

What brand of hook are you using?? Lovely square❤
The hooks I use are Susan Bates Silvalume Ergonomic I love them!
Thank you for answering my question
I need a close up & super slow on how you do the 1st Single Crochet to start the edging. I don't quit understand it & it is not shown very good.
I am not sure where you mean, can you tell me where in the video you are referring to? The sc on the 3rd round is done quite slowly, but I do have another tutorial on this method of starting with a single crochet that is very detailed.
@@jspcreate it's the last round where you are attaching the Aran yarn, after the circle is finished.
Ok, it is a standing single crochet method. I do have a much slower video explaining this method on my channel. You could also just join with a slip stitch, ch 1 and then work a regular single crochet. The method I used here is another way that just skips the sl st and ch.
