    I've used this join and found that I like it even better when I alternate the stitches like this: first stitch: pick up the left loop, then the right (as in the video); next stitch: pick up the right loop, then the left. Continue like this for the entire seam.

    • @SouthCountyGal
      @SouthCountyGal 7 лет назад +3

      I agree; this keeps it from looking like one edge is overlapping the other.
      I actually figured out on my own how to do this from the top down, but it involved taking the hook out of the loop and coming in from a new angle. These instructions are much easier. Also, I got Lyme disease and forgot how the heck I did it last time! I sure was glad to find this video after fumbling around for over an hour trying to figure out the method again.

    • @froggydoodle808
      @froggydoodle808 7 лет назад +3

      You're referring to 4:52 in the video, when she discusses what to do at intersections. I also don't quite understand that part. I'm hoping that it will make sense when I get to my first intersection and have to figure out what to do... sometimes instructions like this one only become clear when you are at that point in your actual project and are pondering various ways around it!

    • @froggydoodle808
      @froggydoodle808 7 лет назад +6

      I figured it out... it's really intuitive once you get to the intersection. You'll see that as you finish the last slip stitch before the intersection, and your tail is behind the horizontal seam, when you reach over the seam to grab the first 2 loops of the next pair of squares, your working yarn and that tail are surrounding the seam naturally. So just go from the last stitch on the first pair of squares to the first stitch on the second pair of squares. Don't crochet into the seam; just skip over it.

    • @CanadianRose
      @CanadianRose 7 лет назад +4

      froggy doodle I'm trying to follow, but I find it easier to see how to do it. Do you go over the horizontal and into the left and right or under and into the two stitches?

    • @denisevandal5090
      @denisevandal5090 3 года назад +3

      CanadianRose Just pretend the cross-wise seam isn’t there - and jump over it to the next set of squares. You just don’t do anything with the seam you’re crossing... ignore it. Start with the first loops on the next set of squares & join them as you have done the rest. That simple.

    This may be a silly question, but will this work for projects other than afghans/granny square blankets? Say, for example, to make a flat seam on some fingerless gloves: could you join two sides of the same rectangular piece of crochet together?
