Weaving in ends is my LEAST favorite thing in the whole process. But I do it and the same way u do. I make hats to send to my moms nursing home and a couple other places. Not too long ago ended up weaving in ends for 15 hats all at same time cuz I had put it off. Silly me!! Now I always do it as I go. Thank u for sharing
@@HookedbyRobin Guilty as charged! 😂😂 I think we all get so involved with our projects that maybe we think we can wish the ends weave themselves magically ✨ ~sigh~ Nothing to do ladies, but sit down and work on those ends 😩😆😄 thanks for for sharing your video 🙏🏼
I like to weave my ends as I crochet the next row by doubling the end with my new yarn or by tapping the end under my new stitches as I go so that I do not have another step to come back and hide them.
A trick I learned a few years ago. If you're worried about your ends showing through on the other side, place your needle where you want it to go but before pulling the needle through, have a look on the other side, if you can see the shiny needle, you're going to be able to see the thread/yarn you're securing
that laugh at the end is the laugh of a woman who knows if we are watching this video we are not having fun weaving in our ends 😫😫 but thank you SO much for all your videos!! you are so helpful and cheery and make learning to crochet very enjoyable 😇
I have been crocheting for a few years now and watched dozens of youtube instruction videos. I watched a couple of your videos today and yours are the clearest I have ever seen! ! The instructions could not be clearer, The videos are also well filmed and go at the right place. Thank you.
This saved me a lot of projects, I'm making crochet granny hearts for valentines day but my first 3 unravel because I didn't now how to weave in the ends! Thank you!
This is exactly what I needed! I've been struggling with my tails to the point of not wanting to change colors but now I think I can have some fun. Thanks so much! I love this channel!!
Thank you so much for the advice! I’ve only been weaving my ends in a little bit and now I’m realising my pieces will fall apart over time if I’m not doing it properly. Thank you so much 🙏🏼
Thank you for your tutorial! Im new and excited to learn color changes today too, but i can tell from the comments im going to have to accept weaving in ends as a consequence of a process i love.
Thank you. I knew from knitting that you have to weave in your ends but was a bit at a loss on how to properly do it on multi-colored granny squares. Your video helped.
Thanks Robin, I always wondered why long tails, I always thought that it's a waste 🤦 as you can tell I'm a total novice. I've only just completed my first shawl and scarf. I did weave the ends in but didn't think to come back to reinforce the stitch and avoid it coming apart after a few washes as you said, so this is a very informative video, thanks for sharing 💐
I absolutely loath weaving in my ends, almost to the point of completely deterring me from ever making anything. I have tried crocheting overtop of the tails as I go which I find works well, I just have no idea how stable that is long term. Thank you for this very clear and helpful video!
Thank you! I'm new to crocheting and I'm working on a throw blanket for my mom. I want to do things right and keep the tails from coming out in the wash, so I appreciate the guidance. :)
In all of my years of crocheting I had heard about weaving ends, but I hadn't really seen it until now, it's helpful that's for sure. Thank you for the video!
I love seeing peoples methods too! Sometimes I crochet over the ends if working in rows before (also I often crochet in the ends - I'll have to do a video on that one as it's really hard to describe 😂)
@@HookedbyRobin yes. I seem to change even thru a blanket. I hope to standardise it as sometimes it seems lumpy in places. You helped me with join as you go so thanks for that too. Joining grannies today but have a coffee just now... Best wishes E
Thank you so much for this tutorial, Robin! I'm new to crocheting and I can already tell my first granny square blanket will unravel :D :D :D Oh well! ... I had fun making it :)
Mine unravelled after about 6 months so I think you'll get some use out of it! 😅 I wish someone had told me about ends before I made it! I merrily snipped my ends without a care in the world LMAO Mistakes are how we learn so it's all good in the end! 😂
@@HookedbyRobin I totally can relateWhen i made my second granny square afgan I did for my daughter in Sept, it has come undone... those tails I thought were secure! She told me she loves to snuggle under it and pull it tight from her toes to around my neck !! LOL your video is a life safer
Hello Robin, I do this the same way you do. It’s interesting because today I posted a question on IG, and many people almost 100% identified they do not sew as they go they wait until the very end of their project. This might make sense when you’re making a continuous blanket and you might have to take it apart if you noticed a mistake. But I agree that with granny squares - finish them as you make them or you will have a big other project at the end of having to join them!
I want to update my comment! I posted my comment after day one of my poll on IG, and after day 2 the results were totally different! It seems the respondents were actually split 50/50! So there you have it!
I sew in my ends the same way as you do. I watched this video in the hope you were going to show me a miraculous faster way of securing ends! At least I know I have been doing the right thing -however tedious!
Thank you so much for this tutorial....I just finished three blankets for my grandchildren and gave it a special wash just to discover several tails pulled out and big holes in the blanket.....I was crushed....guess I’ve learned. Now on to how to repair the holes!!!
Thank you, a very useful video. I’ve made a tiny granny square blanket for my dolls house using a 1.25mm crochet hook. I followed your video for shell edging. It looks very pretty from the front, but a bit of a nest on the back with around 90 ends to tidy up!
Thanks so much for making this video! I had just finished making ALL of my granny squares for my 1st ever crochet project and then realized I was going to have to weave the ends in. I just wanted to be done with it 😂🥴! Found your video and it’s helped speed me up so much! Thanks for the “pep talk” 🙌😂💗
This was just what I needed! I just finished my first granny square throw and was horrified to see a lot of the squares unraveling. I definitely did NOT leave enough of an end to weave it. I'm wiser-thanks to you-and ready to start my next project without it becoming my next problem. 😏
You just confirmed how great I am 😂😂😂😂 I wanted to learn how to weave in granny square ends even tho I’m pretty ok at it and watching this all the way thru I do everything you do! So that made me confident my projects will hold 😭❤️❤️🙏 thank you 🤣
I've only been leaving a 1 inch tail and crocheted over it when I've been joining. I'm new to crochet and no one ever gives information on how to weave the ends in so I've just been doing it how I cover the tails when I cross stitch
Can I just say, ugh ! I would love to have some one else to do this. Hehehe I make a big stash of items and then I go back to weave in all the ends. I'm just not very self disciplined. Thanks for the help. I try to crochet over them sometimes.
Oops. I didn't know weaving in the ends was even a thing. I just finished my first granny square blanket and I just snipped off all the ends 😱 now I'm filled with dread. At least I know now!
Thank you so much Robin for your Brilliant advice. I wasn't sure whether I was doing it Right until I watched this video helped me Alot. Many thanks to you for All your Wonderful Tutorials 👍💯🔥💛
Thank you for this Robin I do my ends this way usually at the end of the square though , it's quite relaxing to watch you do it , not so relaxing to do it lol 😊Amanda xx
I'd love to know how to do this properly on a looser Stitch. I've just made a snood with bulky yarn and a large diameter hook so it feels like it wouldn't really stay in place as well.
Something else I like to do, as insurance, is when I add a color in the corner (ch2 sp) I like to crochet over the last tail a bit. I still weave my ends in really well, but it helps tack that last tail down and push it aside while I'm working the current round. Just a little something I found useful 😊
Thank you for this tutorial on how to weave in the tails. Thank goodness I hvn't made too many coasters/ granny squares yet. Success. Best rgds, Florence. Indonesia
I so wish I had watched this video earlier. I always weave my ends in, but not as carefully as you do. My ends are woven in about 1 1/2", but not going back and forth. I hope they do not come out in the wash. I use laundry bags and if I give a blanket away I include a laundry bag, and washing instructions.
I Just started a striped pullover and there's SO many to weave in! Is there anyone else who had no idea how to do this? No just me? Mkkk... Noted. Tysm for the vid it really helped!
@@HookedbyRobin keep posting! Don't listen to those haters (saw a comment the other day) You're awesome and help so many people become better crocheters.
@@HookedbyRobin Thats great! I love following your tutorials as a beginner bc you're such a good teacher! Im glad to hear that you're going to be posting more videos ☺😁
Hi Robin ~ I'm working with a wool, cashmere, silk blend yarn. One color. When coming to the end of the ball I just started the new ball and left long ends. They are scattered throughout the blanket, not at the ends. I am a beginner so I didn't realize I should have used a Russian join as I was crocheting. My question is: since my yarn is slightly silky, should I make a knot with the two ends before I weave them in? I am asking you because you are the best at explaining the different techniques. Thank you.
@@HookedbyRobin Thank you so much Robin!😊 I am crocheting a baby blanket for my grandson due in June. It is white with a small ruffle edge that I will run a baby blue ribbon through. Your tutorials are so well made and I appreciate all your details! Thank you again!
Where do you weave in your second green tail? The one you started the round with. In the same corner? I always do it it like that, but I find it quite bulky, especially when you use it in clothing
My squares are very small and there is no space to weave in the tails over many stitches. I want to ask if the first step is enough to weave in the tails.
Amazing! Thank you so much for your reply! I’m so excited to finish the unicorn blanket cal for my niece! 😍Your videos have been so useful to help me learn to read patterns. Thank you so much! 😘💖
There is a thing called a double magic circle. There is a YT on it somewhere. That's all I do now, and still weave the tail well. It's a tiny bit fiddly to close, but it gets to be 2nd nature, and worth the troubke.
The double magic circle is what I use for my own blankets! It's a pain and a fiddly but totally worth it I agree! I've never had a double come undone x
Im making my first blanket and 80% of the way through it i have realised that i have left all my ends way too short. So now ive made an extra step for myself of attaching more yarn to the ends so that i can sew them in 🤦♀️
Luckily i found a way to weave them in using a very very thing crochet hook which workes well except it has a tendency to pull other strands🫣 but it works well so i cant complain!
I have plans to make a granny square blanket and I accidentally cut the ends way to short. 😅 Thankfully this one is just a test one with some excess yarn
Hi there! I know I’m very late on posting on this video, but is there a reason you don’t weave in the magic circle in different directions like the other ends?
Thank you for this tutorial! Is it possible to weave in the ends after I have attached all my granny squares (to make a cardigan) or would you recommend doing it before?
You can absolutely do it right at the very end but you will die a little inside when confronted with them all 😂 I personally like to *try* and get them done as I go so that when my project is finished, it's finished there and then with the final stitch rather than staring at another few hours work weaving in ends 🙃
@shwetanaik3646 if you're anything like me, you'll plough on excited about the project and won't want to stop to weave in ends anyway 😂 I do TRY but very often fail at practicing what I preach LOL There's no right or wrong, ends can be done at any point 😄
Fellow crocheters I need help - my first project two years ago was a granny square skirt, but sadly I didn’t know how to weave in ends so I just tied a knot and cut (terrible I know). Is there anything I can do to save my skirt? 😭
I’ve been doing a project that consists of 43 daisy squares. I’m about 18 squares in and haven’t been tidying my ends as I’m going along. This has spurred me to stop and do all my ends before making any more squares 😂 pray for me
I should have watched this before I finished my granny square baby blanket for a gift. I knotted the end and cut it too short. I am afraid it have to start over 🫠

Definitely give it a go Amy!😃
@@HookedbyRobin I got one of my granny squares done and although it took about twice as long as normal, I feel it will be worth it! 💕
It definitely will!
Do you not do a single between the clusters of a granny square? also, does that make the hole smaller?

Thank you for this tutorial! Is it possible to weave in the ends after I have attached all my granny squares (to make a cardigan) or would you recommend doing it before?
You can absolutely do it right at the very end but you will die a little inside when confronted with them all 😂 I personally like to *try* and get them done as I go so that when my project is finished, it's finished there and then with the final stitch rather than staring at another few hours work weaving in ends 🙃
@@HookedbyRobin Yes of course! I will try to do them beforehand but I just want an option in case I feel a bit death-y
@shwetanaik3646 if you're anything like me, you'll plough on excited about the project and won't want to stop to weave in ends anyway 😂 I do TRY but very often fail at practicing what I preach LOL
There's no right or wrong, ends can be done at any point 😄
@@HookedbyRobin Ahaha! I have already made over 30 without weaving the ends 😂
Hi there! Can you crochet with your ends with this type of project? I mean, will it hold after several washes?
i am making my first blanket and have found your tutorials very helpful 😊. How long do you leave your tails?
❤❤❤ty so much😊
You’re welcome!😃🤗
my ends always end up sticking out no matter what i freaking do ive been melting them together with a lighter cuz im sick of them popping out
Thank you for the smile😃.
Fellow crocheters I need help - my first project two years ago was a granny square skirt, but sadly I didn’t know how to weave in ends so I just tied a knot and cut (terrible I know). Is there anything I can do to save my skirt? 😭
Thank you for the tutorial😆
You are very welcome! 😅
I’ve been doing a project that consists of 43 daisy squares. I’m about 18 squares in and haven’t been tidying my ends as I’m going along. This has spurred me to stop and do all my ends before making any more squares 😂 pray for me
You can do this Hannah!😅🥳
Thanks so much you help me
You’re welcome!😃🥰
i really needed this planing on making a blanket but ive only really made plushies before this.
I’m glad it has helped!😃
Cool tips
I should have watched this before I finished my granny square baby blanket for a gift. I knotted the end and cut it too short. I am afraid it have to start over 🫠
Ah no!🤗 How is it going now?
@HookedbyRobin I haven't done anything yet 😂🙈 but I think I will only rejoin them.
No rush.😃
This doesn't come apart after washing?
Excellent! Thank you 🙏🏻
“You will die a little bit inside” had me laughing😂
😂😂🧶
Interesting that you sow with your left hand. ❤
I'm actually left handed! 😅 I weirdly learnt how to crochet with my right hand for some reason 🤔🙈
@@HookedbyRobin Well I never. You must be ambidextrous. Good that you can use both hands. ♡♡♡
Can you please make a tutorial for this square?❤️
