    Are you one of those people whose endless granny square blanket starts twisting after a while? Then this is your video to sort out that blanket!! Enjoy xxx

      This is brilliant......and it really works! A great side-effect of this is that your blanket won't have a 'right' or 'wrong' side. Brilliant for those of us who obsess about it!! Gotta love it!!!❤❤❤

    ophelia..im so loving the way you are making your granny squares ..when i started crocheting many ... years ago my ones turned out like this and i wondered why ...now im in my mid 50s ive learnt something different ...i was in a spot light store in Australia Melbourne .a lad.y i spoke to told me how she does the crochet squares and now ive found you in now to crochet a new project for the homeless and people that are in need of warm iteams this winter ..im a crocheter and i love to make and give things away as gifts ...ive just on finished a very large shawl with bobbles around the bottem all round with big toggle wooden buttions down the front ..ive had so many comments on it ...1st time doing lots of new wips ♥♥♥🧶🧶🧶🧶..how can i send you my pics

    Thank you for the tip! I had it happen in one of mine. It wasn't bad enough to frog it. So now I know, if I make a bigger one, to turn it!

    Hello, Just came across your video and wanted to say *THANK YOU* for posting it. Great to have a way to not have my square skewed. Question though, when finishing the "round" are you skipping the ch-2 stitch and sl st into the second st?

    • @OpheliaTalks
      @OpheliaTalks  2 года назад

      Hello Mela, yes l do skip the chains, if not you will get an extra stitch, effectively increasing each round! Anja x

    What a good idea. If you do two rows of each colour would you still have to turn every row?

      @OpheliaTalks  10 месяцев назад

      I would suggest you do turn every row, but you could try it out, let me know how it goes Karen, Anja x

    Yes, I've seen that "swirling" and I think it looks absolutely pitiful. I overcome it by flipping the square after every round and working in the other direction.

  • @rossmilner6780
    @rossmilner6780 3 года назад +1

    The reason these squares develop a bias to the left after many rounds is that you are constantly crocheting in one direction only so flipping your work every round will solve this.
