Great explanation. I knew to stay consistent with the turn, but turning towards me, thread to the back, felt more natural so that it what I have usually done. I will have to practice the opposite to get those neater edges 😊
I never thought about this too much, but it really makes a difference. Perhaps this is why some of my edges on finished items are nicer looking than on other projects. Excellent point to show us all. The first sample you did looked the nicest.
Fascinating. I have always turned my work so the yarn is behind the piece simply because it's easier to grab that yarn to make the first stitch of the new row. Thank you for setting me--and my crochet projects--straight!
I have always turned with the yarn in back. I didn't like how it felt to have the yarn in front. I'll have to try and see if I like the look of turning in front better.
Gah! The videos I learned with (waaay back) always showed the yarn-to-back method or else said it didn’t matter. Right now I’m working on a scarf and unhappy with the untidy sides so I’ll try turning yarn-to-front to see if it helps. Thanks for the tip!
Never occurred to me to turn my work this way...I always turn with yarn in back. I agree that with yarn in front it looks smoother. Next project I'll turn to front. 😊😊
I never knew this, crocheted all my life. At 76 I'm still learning! You never get too old. What about grabbing the yarn with your hook to pull it through a stitch as you work? Do you grab it from underneath, or over the top? I do it both ways. Does it matter? Lol, I'm thoroughly confused! 💕💕💕
That's will make it so much easier to work into the sides when doing ribbing on cardigans, or edging on blankets. Thank you so much for demonstrating this.

It never occurred to me that this might matter. Thank you for explaining!
Right?!
I never realized turning your work one way or the other would make a difference, but it does! Thanks for sharing.
Very enlightening. 😊 Now does it matter if you chain then turn or turn then chain?
Thank you for this. I always knew you have to be consistent, but did not realize you get a different look depending on which direction you turn.

What a great comparison. I always wanted a better way to do my turns so the sides looked better. I will definitely try this. Thank you.

Thank you! I just recently became more conscious of turning my work and it does make a difference.

Thank you. That was very helpful
This is SO HELPFUL! Thank you Ashlea! 😊
Clockwise vs counter clockwise. Love it! I've been using the counterclockwise method since i learned to crochet. Good to see the comparison.
Wow! Who knew! This technique is exactly what I need to create consistent borders. Thanks for the tip.
Blowing my mind… Thank you!
Simple but efficient ! Thanks😊
Thank you! I’ve always wondered but never took the time to test it for myself 🤣
Answers a question I always wondered about. Thank you.
Great tip , thanks for showing the difference too !
Thank you for that tip! As a new crocheter , I had never realized that before.
I’ve always what the differences are! Thank you 😊
I always wondered about this. Thank you!
Oh my goodness! Thank you! I never would have thought of that.
It really makes a difference, thanks!
Thank you so much for this tip!! I love it!!
Thank you, I’ve wondered which way to go! ❤😊
OMG, game changer! One of my edges is always wonky, and I couldn't figure out why, so THANK YOU!! 🤩.

So is the left piece with cleaner edge, yarn in front considered turning to left or right?
Awesome!
That's will make it so much easier to work into the sides when doing ribbing on cardigans, or edging on blankets. Thank you so much for demonstrating this.
I turn like turning the page of a book.
What if you’re left handed
I think the main takeaway is that your yarn must be in the front after you turned.
