Haha, yep! I scrolled down to add a comment complimenting her on her calm instructions and yours was the top one. It's lovely to listen to. And is working out very nicely. Thank you Amanda!
hi amanda .. it's fantastic the way you point out needle on the right stitch we have to work... you can't imagine how it makes all the diference to beginners as me... understanding becomes easier. . I wish you nice days 🙏🏻🤗
Thank you so much for this!!! I’ve been terrified of joining squares because I could never find a video that explained how to join more than just two. This is so incredibly helpful and I feel fully equipped to finish off the blanket I’ve been working on!
I am very glad to know that this tutorial helped you and it is very good to know. I hope you can now tackle joining the squares of your blanket! Thank you very much Raya 🥰
As always, thank you for clear explanation! I love that you don't rush at any point, especially towards the end and you always point out where we're going with stitches that are easily covered up and finally exactly how many stitches we'll end up with on each side. I've been crocheting many years and get annoyed at how many UTube teacher's have areas where they go way slow at the beginning and rush the final details. If I have a problem with that,, I see why a less experienced crocheror would just give up!. I actually took a local class in person when I restarted crocheting 4 or 5 years ago. The class started with 15 or more people who wanted to crochet and by the last week only 3 people were left! One woman actually left crying! I felt so bad for those students and It's my guess they never tried again! I wish there had been someone like you with the patience and foresight to see where people struggle so they can be successful! Crocheting can be the best "meditation" in this crazy world! Thank you!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave me feedback, I really appreciate it! 🥰 Crochet is such a wonderful pastime and is a great de-stressor too... it's a real shame that so few of that class stayed on until the end. I'm glad you enjoy my tutorials, I do try to make them as in-depth and clear as possible 💞
Wonderful Comment, Kathy, I feel the same way about crochet tutorials. Amanda, you are an amazing teacher and your patterns are both beautiful and easy to follow. Many thanks, MaryAnne in New Mexico 👍💜🏜️
I'm doing the little Rose blanket for my great-granddaughter going to be born in the end of May when I get it done I'll put it on here so everybody can see it yes her voice is very relaxing
Hi Amanda, I love all of your videos and this one is fantastic for a beginner like me. It is just the right speed for me to follow along without getting lost. You point out all the things that could easily confuse a beginner too. Thank you for making all of these for us.
Great detailed tutorial. Thanks so much! I’ve been searching for a tutorial that shows the whole process of stitching squares together. This is perfect!❤
This is a great tutorial. You explained everything in such a clear way. I'm using this seem to complete a cardigan I'm working on and it looks fatastic!
Hello Olivia, thank you for your feedback and I'm pleased to know that this tutorial is providing some comfort for you... I find watching knit and crochet tutorials very relaxing myself! 🤗 I hope that you have a lovely weekend and you have something fun / relaxing on your hook at the moment ❤️
Dear Amanda! I’m still amazed how exact and clearly you show every stich! I have watched many different videos, as I mentioned before, but you are the best in my opinion!! 😊 I have done all the bunny squares and now it’s time to seam them. Just wonderful how you show it here!!!!!! You are a special lady!!! Keep doing it the same way please. ❤❤❤
Finished seaming last night, Amanda! It is beautiful. It took me a few hours but it's worth it!! I had the blanket layed out over my ping-pong table lol. Yes I have made progress thanks to you!! I have to crochet every night since one year now!!! I'm hooked on the hook!! I love doing the baby stuff the most, but I also made toys ( snowman, reindeer, sheep...) slippers for the family, hats, scarfs... Now my daughter wants a cardigan! I didn't see one from you and I'm checking out different videos. Most girls talk too fast and you are constantly pausing and rewinding. That's annoying. I haven't decided yet. But what doesn't do a mom for her daughter...🙂 may be that one day...I'll have the time to make something for myself hahaha. Have a great weekend! 🥰☀️😎💐
What an informative and lovely video! Thank you so much. I just finished making 42 granny squares but the tutorial I was watching for the project was messy and frustrating when it came to attaching them. Your video is exactly what I needed - you saved my project!
Beautiful join!!! Thank you for sharing. I started an afghan 17 years ago and am currently about to complete it. I wish I had known this when I started it. ❤❤❤
So funny, I had no idea I was working on another one of your blankets until I opened this video and heard your voice! You helped me crochet my very first baby blanket, and now you’re helping me crochet my second one - the paisley pattern. Thank you so much for all the time and effort you’ve put into helping strangers like me learn! 🩷
Thanks so much. I tried three methods today and this is by far my favorite. The squares do not slip around, the gauge is consistent and stitches are very secure.
Your yarn colors are completely my taste. I love the pink flowers (peonies?) on the white blanket, and the lovely shade of blue that you demonstrated your seams on. Thank you for a very instructional video. Your directions are clear and you show exactly what you are doing. And I loved the colors, as a bonus.
Just found your channel and have liked and subscribed. I love how slow, clear and detailed you are in describing the steps in joining the squares! Thank you so much for making and sharing this tutorial. I just made a throw with granny squares (my first time ever) and will use your method to join them. It's a gift for my adult daughter. Thanks again!
your explain tutor is so easy to follow for first timer who never did a blanket before , thank you so much , i grateful to find you , first time grandma 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave me your lovely feedback - I really appreciate it! 🥰 Congratulations on becoming a grandma for the first time! 👶💝
Thank you so much for explaining each back loop to slip stitch into with such patience. I have watched other videos on here and they go much too fast and do not show the stitches so close up as you do. I am a perfectionist and have been learning crochet this year. I have just subscribed to your channel because you such an amazing teacher. Thank you sooo much 💕
You're so very welcome, Claire! 💝 Thanks for subscribing - I really appreciate it! I'm so pleased to hear that you enjoyed this tutorial and found it helpful 🥰 Enjoy the rest of your week.
Thank you. This is the best tutorial for this method of joining. Your video is very clear and your written and picture tutorial is also excellent, Very well spoken, written and pictured. Thank you again. I have now used this method on a large blanket.
You're very welcome, Elizabeth! I'm glad you found the tutorial helpful 🤗 I love this method too. Thanks for taking the time to leave me your feedback! 💝
Omggg thank thank you for the tutorial and for no side chatter all your tutorials are to the point focused and all about what you are teaching with no side talking thank you for your great instruction!
@@MaisieandRuth ok now that I'm joining my squares together I do have a question... I hope I explain myself correctly..in the tutorial the very first two squares you are joining in the back loop of the SECOND chain of the chain two ... when you get to the top of those two squares at the chain two you then join them in the back loop of the FIRST chain of the chain two .. then you attach 2 more squares and you attach them to the back loop of the SECOND chain two .... so do I have this correct ... When adding new squares: join to back loop of second chain two When to the top of the two squares : join to first chain of chain two When finished with row ( not adding any more squares) : join to both of chains in chain two
@@MaisieandRuth lol whew ! Thank you for responding... this blanket is darling I'm using bernat softee baby cotton ... lavendar and Heather gray but it actually looks like a light tan .. I'm going to make another one using #3 yarn I'm going to make the bears different colors and the blanket background white love love this blanket so much ...also found that French knot works better for me when doing the eyes .
This is very useful, I'm just about to join 4 granny squares for a cushion cover and wanted a flat seam. I'll definitely use this method on the front (it's one where the corners tuck around the back to form the cover) Thanks for a very clear tutorial 💚
hi amanda ! great tutorial.. it'll help me so mych when I finish my teddy bear blanket , because join squares scares me 😂, but now I feel confidence on it 🙏🏻
I never used to particularly enjoy joining my squares either... until I discovered this technique! Just make sure that all your stitches are lined up and the working yarn is at the back of your work and you'll be fine 😊👍
Thank you so much for showing the loops clearly! As a beginner, i struggle with finding which loop i'm supposed to insert the hook. Your videos help so much ❤
Thank you for your reply. I’ve now finished the main body of the blanket (pink with dark rose teddy, looks so pretty I think) and used both chain loops at the beginning and end of the joining of the squares (at #1 and #5 square). I think you’re right about it not making much of a difference with my method in hoping to make it straighter. The basic body still looks a little curved but I’m sure after the border it will look just fine. I so love this pattern that I kept crocheting any free minute I had and worked it up much faster than what I usually do with my other projects. Thank you so much, your instructions are really excellent.
Your voice is soothing U explain things very slowly and precisely and wonderfully easy to follow So many rush through the pattern so I love your instructions. Keep it up
I just finished the Rainbow of Stars baby blanket on Ravelry, and I used this stitch to connect all the squared. THANK YOU. It's perfect! Beautiful. Simple. Seamless. This will be my go-to stitch from here on out.
Hi I’m a beginner I have come from making granny squares to making lots of different baby goods you explain it slowly and show as clearly what to do so a big Thankyou and thumbs up from a beginner
Liebe Amanda , durch Zufall habe ich deinen Kanal gefunden . Ich bin begeistert, wie schön du alles erklärst . So einfach geht Häkeln! Einfach toll ! Hab deinen Kanal gleich abonniert und versuche , deine schönen Projekte nachzuarbeiten. Ganz liebe Grüße aus Deutschland 🤗👋
Great tutorial! I've watch a few others for this method from my favourite YT crochet channels, but found this one to be the best. Informative, well-explained and even better demonstrated so one knows exactly what to do at all stages of the process, from beginning to end.
I love and appreciate your tutorials. You are very thorough, explain things so well. You also walk us through every step. I have made the Teddy Bear one in pink and now making one in blue for any future grandbabies I may have. Now i want to make this white one with 3d pink flowers. I am very visual learner and i need detailed instructions, which you give. If a pattern tells me stich in a multiple of ex 3 plus 1 - i will end up making project either too big or small. Thank you again. I also cant wait to make the onesie and booties that go with teddy bear and then i will attempt this flower one.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I'm starting a big blanket project, and I'll definitely be using this technique to join my squares together. Thank you for sharing.
Your directions are so easy to follow here. I've been looking for this stitch and I'm so glad I found you. Thank you for your excellent instruction. And you nails are so pretty!
Amanda thank you very much for this beautiful granny square tutorial😍I enjoyed making this blanket for the first time I ever made blanket. Became grandma last July and wanted to make very cute & special blanket for my granddaughter. Fell in love with your blanket wasn’t sure if pink would look nice in this. OMG I was so happy with the end results. My daughter loves it. All the nurses fell in love with it. I have directed lots of people to you. Thank you for such a clear video & teaching . You are the best crochet teacher🧶🥰Would love to send you picture of my blanket if you like.💝
Hi Marzyeh, I'm so pleased to hear that you enjoyed the tutorial! 🥰 Congratulations on becoming a first time Grandma - really exciting for you and the whole family! 👶 Yes, I would love to see it! I'm on Instagram (@maisieandruth) or you can email the photo to amanda@maisieandruth.com 💝
Hello, thank you very much for this tutorial, on the beginning of the rows wouldn’t you do both corner stitches as you did on the last two blocks in each row ? To make them even on the outside to put a border around?
Thank you! this is a very slow and thorough explanation! I love the close up shot of your work, its very helpful and so is the fact that you demonstrate many stitches in a row! how do I do the corners if my Granny square has 3 chains at the corner? I'm stumped!
Thank you for this great tutorial. I have been going nut's trying to figure out how to join my squares. I haven't had good luck in the past. I tryed your way and it looked good. Thanks for explaining it so well. Sometimes thay explain how to do the stitch, but not how to do corners ,and add more squares. Thanks. Oh and I want to try your teddy bear blanket ,for my first grand child.
That's great, I'm happy that you're pleased with the finished result! 😀 Yes, please try the teddy bear blanket, it's a fun project to work up. And congratulations on the news of your first grand child, how exciting! 💗

I didn’t want to listen for 20 minutes so I played it at double speed and it was even fine to understand that way.
I have struggled with this, something which seemed like it should be so simple. This has finally made it make sense to me. Thanks

Fantastic! You explained the intersection so easily. Love this video!

Great tutorial! I've watch a few others for this method from my favourite YT crochet channels, but found this one to be the best. Informative, well-explained and even better demonstrated so one knows exactly what to do at all stages of the process, from beginning to end.
I love and appreciate your tutorials. You are very thorough, explain things so well. You also walk us through every step. I have made the Teddy Bear one in pink and now making one in blue for any future grandbabies I may have. Now i want to make this white one with 3d pink flowers. I am very visual learner and i need detailed instructions, which you give. If a pattern tells me stich in a multiple of ex 3 plus 1 - i will end up making project either too big or small. Thank you again. I also cant wait to make the onesie and booties that go with teddy bear and then i will attempt this flower one.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I'm starting a big blanket project, and I'll definitely be using this technique to join my squares together. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave me your lovely feedback, Joshua - I really appreciate it! 🥰 Enjoy finishing off your blanket 💝
Thank you!!!! The tutorials i watched didn't say how the squares should be facing and i needed to know ❤❤❤
Glad I could help! Thank you so much for your comment 🥰
This makes a pretty wash cloth. I enjoyed the stitch. Thank you!
I just learned how to make flowers like that. I’m making a purse with rose granny squares. It’s a fun & easy pattern. They look lovely on the blanket.
That sounds lovely 😃 Yes, there are so many pretty things to make with the rose squares 👍🌷
So clear and not rushed. Thank you . 🌷

Hi, love this tutorial, by far the best one I found, used it to join 99 squares!!!
Aww thank you, Jak! 🥰 I'm so pleased that this tutorial was helpful for you ❤️
Hello, thank you very much for this tutorial, on the beginning of the rows wouldn’t you do both corner stitches as you did on the last two blocks in each row ? To make them even on the outside to put a border around?
Very well explained, thank you!
Thank you very much 🥰
Excellent tutorial and camera work. Your voice is so relaxing to listen to.
Love jow you show the loops up close, your very patient
I'm really pleased that you're finding the tutorial helpful, Debra 🤗💝

Glad it was helpful! I wish you a great day and take care 💝
Thank you! this is a very slow and thorough explanation! I love the close up shot of your work, its very helpful and so is the fact that you demonstrate many stitches in a row! how do I do the corners if my Granny square has 3 chains at the corner? I'm stumped!

Thank you for this great tutorial. I have been going nut's trying to figure out how to join my squares. I haven't had good luck in the past.

Thanks for explaining it so well. Sometimes thay explain how to do the stitch, but not how to do corners ,and add more squares. Thanks.
Oh and I want to try your teddy bear blanket ,for my first grand child.
That's great, I'm happy that you're pleased with the finished result! 😀 Yes, please try the teddy bear blanket, it's a fun project to work up. And congratulations on the news of your first grand child, how exciting! 💗
