The hacks to neaten the edges and ply-up a single strand of yarn are amazing!
Yay! So glad you enjoyed these hacks! They've been absolute game changers for me.
Those were my favorite two hacks too!!
Does the edge stitch work on other stitches besides sc ?
Agreed!! Wonderful tips!! Thank you for sharing these "hacks"!
The hack is from TL Yarncraft. Toni offers awesome hacks too.
The ply you did is called Navajo ply and they do this to have thicker yarn for their rugs. I have used it in knitting. Thank you and the best to you.
That miss stitch would haunt me if I don't fix it right 😂but I love them all thanks for sharing
Oh it does haunt me! But sometimes I'm too lazy (and frustrated lol) to unravel a bunch🤣
I make my own stitch markers or stitch savers. Those come in super handy when a project needs to go into time out. I put a letter bead on the marker. I went to a local farmer's market, there was a gentleman there with a crochet stand. He put skeins of yarn into clean 2 liter bottles, he cut the bottoms of the bottles put the skein in, taped up the bottom ran the working yarn through the bottle opening.
All great ideas!
I just keep my yarn in a gallon size ziploc bag and let it feed out the end of the closed zipper.
Great
I have been crocheting for 28 years, and I learned a couple new tricks. Thank you!! 👏I am saving this video!😊
Yay, I'm so glad I was able to teach you something new! Thanks for watching!
To make thicker yarn with the loops is a great idea! 🧡
I saw it on Tuula Maaria's crochet channel years ago...she's a great crochet coach from Finland. Many, many useful hacks! "Crochet with Tuula Maaria", check her out!
This is called chain plying or Navajo plying when you spin a yarn from fibre. Instead of having 3 spools of yarn (all with slightly different lengths) you only need one and won't have any spools with leftover bits.
Hack No. 3 is genius. Turning one strand into 3. Love it! :)
Love the ones for the straight edge and how to triple your thread without using three balls at once! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching.

I love all these tips except the one where you missed a stich. It's a clever tip but I would never be able to live with myself if I just patched it up, even tho it would save me time and energy having to undo my work. Kudos to you tho for finding a new idea for fixing your work, it's ingenious, it's just not something my horrible perfectionist nature would allow me to actually do, and then live peacefully with myself afterwards. The tip I especially love, is the one where you used a loop in the wool to change a single thickness of yarn into a thicker one. What a clever idea! I am new to your channel but I think I'm utterly hooked, pun intended, on your videos. Thank you for posting these tips and tricks, they are very helpful. God bless you
Thanks for sharing your perspective! And I totally get about not being able to live with the knowledge there's an error. I tend to be a perfectionist myself, but crafting and creative things are the one area I'm pretty good at letting go of my need for perfection. Of course, I likely wouldn't use the filling in hack if it were for a commissioned project. But I've found it allows me to actually finish projects versus putting them in a permanent time out because I don't want to unravel 😂 So glad to have you here and thanks for watching! God bless.
Oh my gosh!!! That 3 ply trick is GENIUS!! Thank you!!
I love your rap Amanda! Thanks for showing how to neaten up my crochet! Have a beautiful day!
Thanks so much! I'm really glad these tips were helpful. Hope you have a wonderful day as well!
I like #3 three strand hack.🎉
Awesome hack #3!! So genius making 3 strands out of 1. Thanks!
Chain plying the yarn is fantastic 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Loving your hacks, the way you turn single strand yarn into bulky is amazing, Will definitely be trying this 😊
These hacks are amazing! It makes me want to sit down and start crocheting something where I might be able to use one of them.
I love that this video has you inspired to crochet! Thanks so much for watching.
Hack #3 is life changing!!! Thank you! I'll never get that missed stitch one, even though I need it.
It's crazy how simple the hack makes it to bulk up yarn, right? As for the missed stitch hack, that's totally okay! I even forget how to do it sometimes myself 😆
Love the rap. 🤣 Thanks for using the extra hook to show where to put the hook on hack #4 before actually doing it. That made is so clear!
Haha glad you enjoyed my "skills" 🤣 thanks for watching!
Great tutorial Amanda, you have a great camera presences, looking straight into the camera and not focussing off camera . These hacks are great.
Aww thank you so much for your kind words! I appreciate you watching.
I enjoy making blankets, anything wider than 2 ft. here is my savior, after I get almost a foot high, I accordion fold the blanket about 3-5 inches wide, thicker the yarn, wider the fold, then tie the bundle, I used scrap yarn, go around 2 times and tie, so now you have a bundle on your lap, the working edge opens like a fan, and as you work your Blanket, keep tying as it gets longer, I like doing this as that my cat helps me, she can not lay on it, it stays clean, can travel with it, Bags up much easier. I enjoy your shows.
The accordion fold is a great idea for bigger projects! Thanks for sharing.
I love your hack!!
Love the clean edge hack. This I've never seen before . Thank you.
I have seen something similar for knitting, so why not for crochet. Definitely a useful tip.
I thought I was the only one that forgot what hook size I was using. THANK YOU for the good Idea!!
I love this hack!
However, when I use multiple yarns, I just place each ball/skein in a bowl or flower pot. I don’t have any tangles when I do this.
❤❤❤
Wow, wow, WOW!!!!!!! Thank you for the straight edges.
It's such a game changer, right?
Such great hacks! Thank you.
these tricks are fantastic! thank you!!
Oh my, you got me with y'all! Since you used the correct term, I subscribed, oh I like your content too!
Love it! Glad to have you here 😁
Amazing! Thank you so much !!!

The single crochet hack for a cleaner edge is fantastic. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for showing us the hacks, Amanda. ❤❤❤
Really appreciated hack #3. Thank you.
Love all the hacks.
Stumbled upon this. Great tips. I’m going to try them. Thanks.
Love that first hack!!!!!
Thanks for your inspiration 🙏 😊
I love your straight edge hack! Thank you for sharing!❤
I'll be sharing your channel with my students!
Awesome hacks. I love them!!!
Great hacks! Thank you for sharing!
The fill in the skip stitch, genius!
I've done doubling up my yarn before but that was a nice hack.
I think you've shown the alternative double crochet before on a turn project.
Y'all😂
Wow, I needed these awesome hacks. Keep them coming
You are so smart! Thank you for the hacks.
Incredible, thank u!
Very helpful. Thank you! 👍
Your 3-ply hack is BRILLIANT!
Genius! Thank you so much I now know how to use the beautiful yarn my husband gave me- fine single ply. I’m very excited! 😊
Thank you so much for d tips ❤
Great stuff!! Thank you!
BEAUTIFUL!!! Tha has always vexed me!
This was very helpful. Thanks!
Brilliant Hacks, Thank You!
Thank you very much for giving such a nice tips .❤
Thank you for sharing 😊
I really like your Hacks, they are very helpful, and I am grateful for sharing 👍🏽👍🏽
I will try the no 3 hack. Thank you.
What a good idea for tripling the yarn!
Wow! hack #3 is GREAT
All 5 hacks are so useful.
My favorite is the 3 strands, it's just brilliant. I was debating if I should 3 balls of yarn for a project, but worries that I may not finished the yarn at the same time, then I ended up with 3 small balls of left over yarns. Or the other way around.
Now I can get the extra yarn as needed.
Thank you so much for putting this together.
Answered so many questions for a beginner crocheter like me. 🙂
I'm so glad I saved you from making 3 balls of yarn! I did that for a project years ago before I learned this hack and IT WAS A NIGHTMARE 😂 Thanks so much for watching!
That fill-in stitch is a great idea. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Hi Amanda I Love your creative hacks❤
Wow, the single crochet hack to keep edges straight is awesome!

Thanks for the hacks
How in the world did you come up with the triple strand idea for single strand yarn? That is awesome!😮
I wish I could claim credit for coming up with the idea, but one of my subscribers told me about it! 😄 I wish I had been able to find the comment where someone explained it to me because I wanted to give them a shoutout in the video. But unfortunately I couldn't find it.
It’s an Native American idea. It’s been around for a very, very long time.
Thank you
I love it 👍👏🏻
Great hacks. Thanks
Hack number two blew my mind! I might be able to gift an item without doing finishing rows all around! Thank you!

I have been doing hack # 1 for a while.. Great tip.❤
That's awesome! It's so simple it leaves me going "why didn't I think of this sooner?" haha
Thank you very much these were some great I loved one through three got a little confused at 4 and was totally lost at 5. I will watch them again and again until I get it. Thank you very much, and I'll check out some of your other videos.❤
So glad you enjoyed! Haha, the last two are definitely a bit more involved. But I bet with practice you'll be an expert at it in no time!
This content has been very helpful. The seamless rounds was of particular interest to me.Thank you for showing us the hacks in a clear demonstration 😄
Always glad to hear someone found one of my videos helpful! Thank you for watching.

You're so welcome!
Awesome Hacks!!
Awesomely amazing
Brillant !!!!
GREAT TIPS!! thaks
You are so welcome!
I have been crocheting for years and I love that I continue to learn new techniques every day
Thank you ❤
Yes, it's so fun that there's always something new to learn! I'm so glad you enjoyed this video, and thanks for watching.
Thanks for the straight edge hack! I always have trouble with the SC stitch edge being uneven. Love it. Also the hack for turning 1 strand into bulky is amazing. That is wonderful because when buying bulky there usually aren't many yards in the skein and you wind up paying a lot more for more skeins that you need.
Yes, bulky yarn can get so pricey! And I love how this helps me quickly work through my yarn stash. Thanks for watching!
