Beginning new rows with a single crochet and chain one is a great tip. It looks far better than the usual chain 2 or 3. I will be using that, thank you 😊

I have looked at a lot of crochet videos and this is by far the easiest to see with your bulky yarn and good camera angle. Thank you for making this so easy to watch and duplicate. I hope you make more videos!
Wow! That's awesome! I will be teaching these methods in my classes from now on. I love that you're using a bulky smooth yarn and large hook for instructional purposes. I should do that as well. It shows up so much better on camera. Thank you so much!!!
Anne - my impression is that the last loop of the round that you pull the slip stitch through lays down and floats over the first skipped DC (sc/chain 1) and then counts as the final stitch in the subsequent round. At least, that works for me to maintain the stitch count and looks very clean.
Best tutorial I have seen... and I have seen over 15 and, incredibly, it is the one with less views, I cannot understand how unfair TH-cam is. I could understand everything you do except those strange codes that you write in the corners... if this is a beginner video, because I guess this is a pretty basic shape ... why those strange codes? What do they mean? How can we understand them?
@@Fancylooks This is more intermediate with the changes on how to make this seamless join. Beginner videos on doing joins in the round usually use basic joins. Every beginner should learn crochet abbreviations as to do any written pattern you need to know this information and is readily available. Every crocheter that teaches uses these abbreviations and a lot of patterns are in written form so it would be a disservice to any beginner to not learn this. There are countless tutorials and blogs that go over abbreviations. This video tutorial though focuses on adding a technique to the basic beginner technique of joining in the round so it would be easy to assume someone watching this tutorial that they would already know crochet abbreviations. Everything is shown in the video, but having the abbreviations shown in the caption adds to ease of the tutorial, but its not needed to learn what is being taught in the this. On another note though.... This join is magic and one of the best ones on seamless joins I have seen!!
I have watched THREE different videos on how to fix that gap when crocheting in the round, and this is the only one that actually made sense and helped! And the others had voiceover! Excellent tutorial, top notch, thank you!
When you crochet a circle, that's how the geometry works. You add one more, single, double crochet stitch (or whatever stitch you're using) before the increase in each new round. In other words, the increases are spread out further the longer (wider) the round It's a matter of knowing one's multiplication and division tables
I really don't like a visible joining seam that's why I am not making any kind of round projects however, I came across of your video and I will try this informative sharing of yours. Thank you so much. :-D :-D
Thank you! This is great. I haven't found so many half double crochet invisible join videos. I assume it's pretty much the same except I'm not sure how you construct a half double crochet fake stitch at the beginning of the round. I suppose that's why I haven't seen as many videos, it may be trickier and require a different technique. Just using one chain would be too short and using two might be too long?
Prefect! Simple instructions that are easy to follow - all without the chatter. Shows that words are unnecessary when guidance is so clear. Thank you! ✨
When you get to end of each round, the instructions say to SLST into the 2nd DC. But it looks like you've marked and, consequently, SLST into the *first* stitch (which isn't even a true DC) that was created for that round. What am I missing?
Because the first double crochet is a fake double crochet, it slides down I think, making it not stick up to quite the same level as the rest of the row due to its irregular construction
Really great! until now it works absolutely fantastic, Ill see how it turns out after the circle is bigger. I can not do with not perfect, so until now i absolutely hated how the flat circle looked and i have pulled out a lot of hours of work because its not perfect, but this really is a big help!
شكرا. جربتها و نفعت الحمد لله. Thanks a million.the only video that is simple and the result is awesome. Would you please post videos about grany squares
BEAUTIFUL work! Just subscribed! I've tried to crochet on and off for several years, recently quit again in feb/march when struggling to crochet a bucket hat, and even a simple round coast because of the UGLY joins, and no clear tutorials on how to seamlessly join them. This production is of very high quality, to the point, clear instructions, and suitable for all skill levels. I'm VERY impressed! Thanks again! Fawn 😊
Oh my goodness... I have been looking for a nice, tidy and neat crochet circle for ages.. Then are all either hexagon or octagon not smooth circle. Thank you so much for this tutorial and those little tricks which I have never seen before. Appreciated very much:) Bless you..thank you xx
Just like what other comments said, thank you so much for sharing this good tip, thanks for using super fat yarn and thick hook so we can understand so much better, and oh by the way, with your nice pace too. 😀
Can this method be used for seamless joining? Thank you for this tutorial! I have studied the chains characteristics in crocheting this helps a lot in doing the trick more clean. Please do more tips tricks or hacks 😊 God bless!
Fabulous! Thank you so much. This is game-changing! I'm a beginner (maybe advanced beginner by now) and would love more technique / tips and tricks / hints and hacks videos!
Thank you so much for sharing this technique! It's so simple and I ended up with a perfectly seamless circle. I am making a Circle to Square blanket and I wanted my circles as perfect as possible. ❤
You should do more rows as the larger the project gets the harder it is to keep it rounded. I enjoyed the video though; I learned that a Single Crochet stitch plus one Chain to start a row is a Double Crochet. Thanks!
Just have to say that I think her doing three full rows is more than fine. If you want to see how more rows work, grab some yarn and make a thing! Make a test thing! I get what you are saying but this is a sample, and an example of how to do a technique, not a full completion of a project in this instance. If you want more, perhaps take some time yourself to test it?
@@ArtBeatKathieif this technique ends up in a more angular Circle during later rows than it would be up to the narrator to put a note about that or mention it that this only works for the first x-rays. Since they didn't, I assume it will continue to be round but the commenter says not. If they're correct, they have a point. If they crocheted incorrectly that could account for the angularity of the circle. I think it's a valid question that could be answered
FFS. Just play some music while you watch it, then. No matter what music creators pick for a video, there's always someone in the comments who hates it. Damned if they do, damned if they don't.

I don't understand the math. You skip the first stitch but count it as first stitch, so wouldn't your first round have 11 instead of 12
Awesome. Thankyou so much 4 this tutorial. I've tried so hard to find a solution to that awkward slip stitch gap, & FINALLY found one!💛
In the first space, the single crochet plus chain is stitch 1 of 12. It is also stitch 1 in all successive rows. (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤
Anne - my impression is that the last loop of the round that you pull the slip stitch through lays down and floats over the first skipped DC (sc/chain 1) and then counts as the final stitch in the subsequent round. At least, that works for me to maintain the stitch count and looks very clean.
Same here?

Best tutorial for joining seamlessly!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Would love to see more of your videos on different techniques in crochet!!
Keep posting!!!
Where are the verbal instructions. I don't understand what you are doing.
Thank you. My beanies will look so much better now. This is the best tutorial I’ve seen on joining crochet rounds.

It's a crochet abbreviation. Like sc- single crochet, dc- double crochet.. Like that.

This is brilliant!!!! I love it. My question is how can I do this with single crochets? I prefer the tighter look of singles to double crochets
Hi! Hoping someone can help me. Been crocheting for less than a month and wanted to ask if this also works for single crochets?
If I use sc instead of dc, would I use a ch1 or 1 sc as the first stitch of the row?
Absolute best tutorial I have ever seen and the most perfect circles ever. Do you have written instructions anywhere?
When you get to end of each round, the instructions say to SLST into the 2nd DC. But it looks like you've marked and, consequently, SLST into the *first* stitch (which isn't even a true DC) that was created for that round. What am I missing?
I think it's very clear that she DOES slip stitch into the 2nd stitch (the 1st true DC).
Because the first double crochet is a fake double crochet, it slides down I think, making it not stick up to quite the same level as the rest of the row due to its irregular construction

By far the best video, very well explained 👏 ! Could you write the exact things we used?
crochet hook 8 mm, cotton cord 5 mm
Thank you for this!! Very easy to understand. Can you share the name of the yarn? I just love it!
cotton cord 5 mm
Thanks 🥰 could you please do us another video on working into the two back loops of every stitch
There’s only one back loop. 😊

Is that a rope..??..
Yes, it is

When you take the time to make your own TH-cam tutorial you can pick the music. Believe me, there WILL be rude people complaining about it.
