🔥 Frequently Asked Questions:
Do you have a left handed version of this video? If you are left handed, you can convert ANY video on RUclips yourself! Simply go to www.mirrorthevideo.com/ and follow the instructions to mirror flip any video to convert to left handed!
How much yarn will I need? This is a very tricky question to answer as there are so many variables! How much yarn you need will depend on which yarn you choose, the thickness of that yarn, your tension and how large you want your finished project to be. I suggest making a small sample first so you can gauge how much yarn you'll need. If making a crochet square, you can weigh your finished square to work out how much yarn it used!
How many squares do I need for a blanket? That all depends on the size of the square you are making and how big you want your finished blanket to be! I always advise making one square first then measuring the size of it. From there you can work out how many squares you will need to get the blanket size you want 😀
Do you have the written pattern? Yes! I have written patterns to accompany my video tutorials on my website here: www.hookedbyrobin.com The written pattern is generally released a week or so after the video tutorial to ensure there are no errors in the video itself and to make amendments in the written version if any are found. All the written patterns are FREE to access on my website
How can I print the pattern from your website? Do you have downloadable PDF's? Not at this time no. This may change in the future but for now, I only provide the written pattern directly on my website.
Can you remake this video so it is slower? If the video speed is too fast, you can slow it down! 😀 See this video on exactly how: • How to Adjust the Spee...
Why do you use American stitch terminology? I learnt using USA stitch terms, long before I even knew there was a difference between UK & US terminology! American terms are my "first language" so to speak. If you need a conversion chart, I have one here! www.hookedbyrobin.com/crochet...

HOW TO JOIN THE NEXT ROW & TACKLE THE CORNERS ruclips.net/video/enmdj2aKgtk/видео.html
I LOVE THIS METHOD! You’re so sweet to teach this. You’re the best! ❤
Thank you so much!🥰🧶
Breadcrumbs from your hexagon tight join as you go video, which I very much enjoyed.
I love this but I wish you could of shown three across and how to attach the other three squares together. I am such a visual person. I get how you attached the two together but am loss as what to do next. You are a great teacher, but I need a bit more visual. I followed a cal where we did eight rows across and eight rows down, next we learn the border, it was the cluster granny squares. I do hope you consider doing three across and 3 down so we can see how the rows are attached, thank you for your consideration,this is far the best I have seen and I thank you.
I can absolutely show how to pick up the next row yes! I'll film that for you next week so it should be ready by Friday for you - that way you'll know how to tackle picking up the corners :-)
Oh, I love this method of joining! Joining is the reason I don’t do many grannies! I will be trying this soon! Thank you so much for this tutorial!
Thanks Robin, I have always had issues on joining my squares together. This video helps.
This is amazing! I wish I knew this a year ago when I was making a big solid granny square blanket!! Will definitely be doing this next time.
This is so memorizing just watching, so gorgeous
Thank you for this joining method!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I've been struggling with this for some time but now I know how it works 😊
Very very lovely. And super clear and helpful. Will be giving this one a go. Thanks heaps. Love watching you stitch away. Cheers from Western Australia.✌🏻💜💙💜💙
Thank you Sarah-Jane for all your support.🧶🥰
Thanks so much for this - exactly what I had in mind! I'm making an oversized scarf out of 25cm solid granny squares (with popcorn stitches in the pattern), and want to join them so that the join looks like a continuation of the pattern. Have tested, and this method will work perfectly! You're a star!
Thank you for this video. (And the one for making the Solid Granny Square) Your instructions are very clear & easy to understand.
Gorgeously done love the colors.
Love this. This is going to be my go to joining method as I hate sewing squares together ;)
Love it soooo simple and sooooo beautiful !
Thank you so much Robin for being there for every crocheter in a pinch! ❤❤
You're so welcome!🤗
Very clear and concise instructional video! Thank you so much for this! I just adore your channel; you’re remarkable! I’m still very inexperienced with joining squares to form blankets and things, I’ve only tried a single crochet join once and a whip stitch join once so joining is a bit intimidating for me still, however your video takes a lot of the anxiety out of giving this method a try! It looks wonderful to boot! Thanks again for the great content!
I am so enjoying your joining videos. Genius tips. Thank you
Thank you for this! I'm making a bunch of merge granny squares (2 sides granny stitch, 2 sides solid) and this is just what I needed! 💕
You’re welcome, I’m so glad it helps.😃
Loved your tutorial. I love the look of how flat the squares are after joining. Recently a friend asked if I knew how to join them once all squares for her blanket was completed. I did but I wish I had seen your video before she asked. II will share this video with her and she can make all her future blankets with your method of joining if she so chooses. Thank you for sharing your talent and expertise with us. I for one am grateful. 🥰
Thank you so much!
Love your tutorial. Easy peasy. Thank you
Thank you for the video tutorial on joining solid granny squares as promised earlier. I was a tad disappointed that you stopped at two squares but after reading the comments I realised that you'll be making another video for joining the second row where diagonal corners are involved. I'm really looking forward to this. Thank you again for your tutorial.
I'll be filming that tomorrow so it should be ready by Friday! Totally my error on that part so I'm set to rectify that asap! :D
Thank you for doing this tutorial.
I am working on a scrap blanket and was dreading sitting and sewing it altogether.
I love this method I will be sure to use this. THANK you.
Where has this been all my crochet life?
Cool way to join squares. Thanks
Thank you!!! Beautiful. I am using this to join some willow pattern squares.
This is awesome! I'm trying to adapt it for a ripple stitch queen size afghan so I can crochet half of the afghan, set it aside, crochet the other half and join the two halves. This will prevent me from having the huge thing on my lap all at once, at least until this join row. Thank you so much for this tutorial as I was drawing a blank as to how to join them and have the join look good!😍
Thank you for showing this methed. I will be trying it .
Great tutorial, I can’t thank you enough. 😊
You are very welcome :D
Very helpful! Thank you!! 🥰Blessings from South Australia💕🐨
I’m glad it helps Kerryn.🥰🧶
I have squares to make an afghan for my granddaughter, not granny, but squares just the same. Was looking for a flat way to connect, thank you !
This looks much clearer to me on how this method should done. I was thinking of avoiding JAYG but your video gives me more confits give it a go - thank you.
You’re welcome, it is a great way to join!😃
Love that yarn
I’m currently planing a granny square inspired by a quilt. This join will be perfect for it. Thank you for sharing!!!❤
You're welcome MaryAnn, I am glad it has helped. Enjoy your crochet.😃🧶
Thank you this changes everything!
Yay! 😃
I like your blue nail polish. Thanks for video this was slow enough that l could follow (see other's but way too fast)
Excellent!
This is much prettier than the regular join as you go method :)
🥰🧶
Thanks so much for this tutorial. 👍💜💐🙂
You are very welcome!
This has helped me tremendously, thank you. I’m making a beach cover up and joining left and right panels together, I’ve tried a few different methods but this method looks beautiful.
Agreed, I am using this technique to join the side seam of a jumper. It looks lovely
Hi Robin, another fantastic crochet tip. It's so flat I was amazed. Not sure I got the expertise to do it but I'm gonna try it. Thanks 😘
It's easy once you get going I promise! Sooooooooooo flat (fiddly but worth it!)
Thank you for helping me 🙂
Thank you for thus. LOVE IT
Thank you so much Clara! 🥰
Thank you. Very nice!
You're welcome! :D
I really appreciate this
It’s great i love it
I needed this video before I started my granny square project. I have been sewing mine, and I am quite literally, cringing each time I look at my project. Then, I have to worry about weaving in the ends and making sure everything is secure and anchored. Well, we learn something new every day! Thanks!!! ❤
You’re so welcome Angie, it is so much easier this way.😃🥳
Really nice, it almost looks like I-cord edging. Thanks for sharing!
🥰🧶
Thanks this helped
I’m so pleased it helps Anita! 😃🧶
So pretty I hope I can do it, thank you
It's easy once you get going I promise!
Very pretty join, thank you!
You’re so welcome!🧶
Thank you very much, love it!
You are very welcome! 😃
Fantastic thanks😊
You’re welcome Julie! 😃🤗
Thank you love it
You’re welcome!😃🧶
Best ever
I love this method! Now I’m not so scared to join solid squares!
Yay! I am so glad it has helped you Brittany. 😃
Love the crofter colours and designs. Wish i could find it here in oz
Love ur vidds
Thank you! 😊
Iam going try this method
🥰🧶
Love your tutorial. Can't wait to try it. Camille
Yay!
I am using your wonderful joining method on a blanket I making now and I am finding it is super fast!! I think it’s faster than any other join I have used and it’s absolutely beautiful especially since I’m using so many different colors the effect is stunning!
I have used this method on a hexagon blanket that is a UFO cuz I think I ran out of that yarn 🥴 LOL... thank you for the video!!
Hello! First off wanted to tell you my little brain was blown by your videos on the joining, I love the look of it and am excited to use in on my next granny afghan. I'm wanting to do a willow square afghan, I know how to do the pattern, but would love some advice as to how I use the continuous join as you go method for the willow squares as I have just found your videos and the corners still stump me. Very appreciative of your videos and help. Thank you! 💚
I successfully joined a cushion cover for the first time after watching your continuous JAYG video. It would be a great help if you could do a 3 x 3 video at some point for the solid granny so we can all get the hang of joining the squares to make a larger blanket.
I'm going to film the corner sections tomorrow! It should be ready for Friday (totally my bad for not including it first time around! 🙈)
ruclips.net/video/enmdj2aKgtk/видео.html
Looks really nice. Very uniformed. Love it. Thankyou for this video.
I really wish i could get the TJAYG with the hexagon (could you please do a video in light colour join so it is clearer to follow. I've just about given up. Might try the solid granny square TJAYG instead.
Love this method. Thank you for sharing. Does the same method work for solid squares where the seam (for the final round of the square) falls at the corner? Hope this makes sense
I’m using this method to make a granny square bag. I’ll prob join all the squares and then sew where it needs to be sewn, otherwise I’m going to attempt to make it all continuous join
Great idea Jaylue, let me know how it goes.😃🧶
Gorgeous pattern
Could you please do a border/edging video as well with this pattern??
I will do! It will probably be coming in a couple of weeks :D
@@HookedbyRobin thanks so much..can
t believe you took the time to reply..looking forward to that video.:-)
Tk you so much could you do 3 rows across and 3 down. How exciting, thanks from the bottom of my heart
3 across and 3 down would take a little while BUT I could show you 2 across 2 down? If I add to this I can show how to join a new row and join at the corners?
Hooked by Robin This would be great to see! I was a tad confused how we would go about joining any additional rows of squares to the row you showed us already. How would we go about joining additional rows in general with this method to make a full blanket? This is probably a newbie and obvious question but I am still so new to joining that I’m rather ignorant about it all xD
Hooked by Robin knowing how to keep joining the squares then how you go up and around would be great. Maybe you could do the three and break it up over the next month. I am ticked you are willing. I know you will be around for questions
@@Sarahlinii Sarah Tabler it's my fault for assuming people would know what I meant so it's not you being a newbie, it's me not thinking it through! Xx it'll be the next video I do 😀👍 (this is a case of "it's not you, it's me" LOL)
Hooked by Robin see this often in viedoes . I highly admire your awesome talent and how you can connect the dots, lots of us are show me a few rows and then watch me roar. I appreciate your kindness and attention to you subscribers. I just love this, if you ever make a written tutorial with pictures I will be first in line to purchase. I believe that there is a great demand for teaching viedoes on how to connect squares. I believe it would be a great seller. Like I said I am in the middle of a crochet along we are at eight weeks. 8 rows down and arc Ross, from making the squares to connecting them row after row, and next we will learn how to do the borders. She gives great tips along the way on weaving in ends and tension, and smooth color changes. Every two to 3 weeks she pops out the next step. I think each presentation is an hour or so long. I know every has their own time restraints. But hey I would be willing to wait on the masters. So if you are able to do the three across and three down that would give a complete picture to get us on out way. Then a quick border to finish them up. Be easy on yourself and spread it out over a month or two. I belong to five crochet groups and people are always asking for where they can find more complete viedoes on connecting squares. I appreciate you willingness to listen and giving series thought to consider this endeavor, I wish I was more of the type to visually in my mind to turn the corner and continue, but I get brain freeze and stare blankly at my project. Thank you again.
Haven't heard the term "kackhanded" for years! Lol! Being a leftie, I heard it a lot as a youngster! 😂
😅
Hi Robin! Does this method also look good with the traditional granny square? I will give it a try. Because this looks great. And thank you for the tutorial. Hugs!
It does yes!
Would you recommend this for joining sweater sleeves?
I love this. Do you do anything different when you have four corners to do?
I pick up the opposite corners (just like in my continuous join as you go video) BUT I'm going to film it early next week to show you as a couple of people have asked the same question 👍
ruclips.net/video/enmdj2aKgtk/видео.html
I love this joining method. I was wondering if you have another video showing how to join either above or below when you have more than one side your joining to. The corners always seem to confuse me.
I do yes! ruclips.net/video/enmdj2aKgtk/видео.html
Are you still planning to do the viedo with 3 across 3 Down. I love the other granny square one you did that was very complete, with the regular granny square you showed several rows and then how to do the border I learned a lot. I hope by this fall cause I want to do one.
Argh! Why do I keep forgetting I promised to do this? I'M SUCH A GOLDFISH BRAIN!! 😫 100% I am writing this down on a post it note and slapping it on my camera lens so I do not forget! This weekend I will make some smaller versions of the solid squares and get them ready so I can film it towards the end of next week when I get a spare day :-)
Literally grabbing my hooks and some yarn so I can make a start on those squares RIGHT NOW before I get distracted!! Xx
Did you want it as a continuous join as you go or individually joined squares like this one? (I'm thinking continuous like the granny squares 🤔)
Hooked by Robin a continuous join like you did in the viedo with the nine squares and how to do the border it was great I will find the link and post it here to show you.
Hooked by Robin ruclips.net/video/kKsb_1YTV41/видео.html. The continuous join granny square one you did. Thanks
Please what yarn are you using? It's beautiful!
Hi Lila, I bought it in my local yarn shop but you can also get it online - its Sirdar Crofter, I show it at 2:26.🙂
I im doing a regular granny square and i did not like the join as you go regular as there where gaps between my rows of 3 as you join only in the middle... this is what i have been looking for . So ill do both regular granny but join them with that dropping and getting the loop back trough the other one. Thanks a lot.
Thank you, this is awesome ! I just wanted to ask what do you do when you get to the "crossroads" (ie joining 4 squares in the middle)? 🌹
ruclips.net/video/enmdj2aKgtk/видео.html :) x
@@HookedbyRobin thank you 🌿🌺🌿
Does this only work with solid granny squares or would it be possible with the traditional one as well? 🤔
Can this be done on blouse or skirt or shorts?
I love the finished look of this joining method. But I’ve already got my squares done. Is it possible to join them like this now?
Hmm not really unless you added a new round to your squares x
Hooked by Robin Aww shame. Next time then. Many thanks for your reply and the great tuition videos x
on the first granny square do you crochet three sides before you begin to join?
I think its far more easier to whip stitch to join your squares after they are all made. I dont like fiddly things lol!
😅 Whichever works best for you Patricia!😃
Robin would you be able to use this method to join c2c squares to make a blanket?
hmmm I'm not sure as it wouldn't work on the outer edge of each block (the side of the dc's if that makes sense?)
Would this work for traditional granny squares ??
Yes 😃🧶
What yarn is that please, irs lovely x
Hi Vanessa, I bought it in my local yarn shop but you can also get it online - its Sirdar Crofter, I show it at 2:26.😃🧶
@@HookedbyRobin Thank you
This is beautifull... but is that mean that you are blocking.... your piece at the end? because i was blocking my square before doing my piece....
I rarely block individual squares, I find joining them pulls them into shape - if something requires blocking at the end I'll block the final piece :) If a square is more intricate or needs appliques adding etc then I'll block the individual squares before joining but as I said, it's rare I block anything!
Could you use this method of joining squares with the C2C granny squares?
Yes absolutely! 😀🧶
@@HookedbyRobin Thank you!!!
this method will work for the unicorn dreams blanket, right??? I've been looking and looking for the method, only two ends to weave end.
Yes in theory HOWEVER not all the stitch counts are the same on the unicorn Dreams squares - the join for the blanket is a continuous style (flat braid join) so will only have 2 ends 👍 That video should be up on my channel in a couple of weeks :-)
Would this technique be the same if you are joining sc to sc?
Yep! 😀
@@HookedbyRobin Thank you so much for this! I have a new appreciation for working with squares now.
I am doing a hexagon where the corners are (2dc, ch 1, dctog). Would this work for that? What would I have to do different? I so want to get this down! Thanks! I feel like I am not doing something right.
It should work fine! I'd be tempted to leave the dc either side of the ch1 unattached to give yourself some wriggle room? Maybe have a play and find out what works best for your hexis :-)
@@HookedbyRobin thank you! I got it!
I get stuck on how to join the front of 2 pieces together since we always work on the back. Please help.
Hope you can do this with single crochet 😅
You absolutely can yes!
@@HookedbyRobin oh my you actually responded thank you😭
Of course, I always try my best to get back to everyone.🥰🤗
@@HookedbyRobin how sweet
for some reason i keep ending up a stitch short on the square im joining so ive had to modify how i start the attachment but im still baffled about why its happening
I have a question. Is the square perfectly square when you join (5 rows) or is the joining DC part of the 5 rows?
The joining is part of the 5 rows :-)
Thank you
The granny square I learned has the tail in the middle meaning you end by joining the three chain to your double in the middle of the last side. Is there a way to do this with that granny square ?
Yes absolutely! The method is the same, no matter where you begin your granny square (corner or side, it doesn't matter) 😀
Thank you!
Hi Robin
Newbie here and a little confused. In the video you say to keep joining as long as you have stitches left to join...Let’s say I am joining a left square to a square on the right....I am confused about how to navigate the corner at that point. Do you happen to have a close up picture of that part....i have slowed the video down but still can’t tell which stitches you are joining into. Are we joining into the corner space of the right square and then doing a complete corner on the left square?
See I don’t even know how to describe it.lol
Would love some help if possible. Thanks so much.
Heya Helen - are you on facebook at all? I have some pics on my fb page which you may be able to zoom in on or I have another couple of videos on this type of joining which may help? X
Hooked by Robin oh thank you Robin. I will go to your Facebook page right now and will also look for the other videos. I am delighted to be learning a new square and a lovely join. Thanks for your help and great videos.
