You know what, this method is time consuming but it is the best I've come across. TY!
The bobbin is a great idea. I managed to to a grinch scarf and wanting to learn more about these c2c and how to do them. This is helpful. Thank you
Just what I needed to see. How to handle multiple yarn bobbins. Yahoo!! Game changer. I already had dog bone shape bobbins😢. But they work. However it was a mess to turn for my graphgan. I bought clothes pins. Works perfect to clip “bones” to my work. Thank you very much
This is the best color changing idea I have ever seen
Thanks! Glad it was helpful.
Thank you for this tutorial. You have so much patience to be able to do these small blocks in so many colors. Your work is AMAZING! Love your channel!
Thanks, Bev! This square was a little more tricky than others, but I think was worth it. Love how it turned out! Thanks for watching!
Terri so interesting to see how you clean up your squares. No wonder your work is always so excellent . Ginger
This video inspired me to finally try C2C!! I was so excited to find the same clips you used and just finished the first square!! I tried it because of you and this video ! Thank you 😊❤️
That's awesome, Diane! So glad you decided to try out the c2c technique!
Thank you so much for taking the time to film this Terri 💕!! It's been EXTREMELY helpful! I feel like I need to formally apologise to my Santa square for being SO lazy!! I definitely didn't work with enough bobbins, so I ended up literally cutting corners with carrying my colour changes! I certainly didn't take the time to tidy my edges either! Feel like I'll be getting coal in my stocking this year since I messed him up so much 😅 I'm looking forward to working with your tips in mind now! xox
You're welcome! Practice makes better I guess. I have done 4 c2c graphghan projects before this one.
Great idea, I have a bunch of these already! Beach towel clamps, from amazon. The clipping on to your project makes the turn so much easier!!! Thanks for the informative demo, very helpful.
Wow, your techniques are so clever. That's why your crochet looks so neat
Your video is awesome.i love how you explained it.i am not lost on c2c graphgans anymore.thank you so much.
Excellent tutorial,so nice of you to share this! Thank You!
You're welcome!
Such a great tutorial, I have been crocheting for about a year and have been so intimidated to try this but this video gives me hope! Thank you for sharing!
You're welcome!
🙋♀️ Terri and Teddy ❤ I love the way you do your C2C graphgans. I'm getting inspired to try and first make a C2C blanket and then when I get good at it, I want to try a C2C graphgaghan.
I appreciate this video more than you could possibly know. After months of wanting to do a C2C, I've finally begun one. The color changes really stress me out, but after seeing your video, I feel like I'm better equipped to handle them. Thank you!!
Thanks so much! Glad my tutorial has helped you. 😀
This is very helpful for the two Zeens & Rogers C2C blankets I'm doing.... The ZZ Block & Ziggy. The ZZ Block is for my 100 Day Project, but I thought I'd also crochet Ziggy & started it last night & I'm not far off half way through! Thanks to your tips the colour changes are going smoothly, but I only have a couple compared to your cazillions of them!! 🥰Blessings from South Australia💕🐨
I made one simple corner to corner baby afghan a few years ago and wish i would have seen this tutorial before i made it as i didnt know how to make my squares nice like this and use bobbins properly hence my afghan has some wonky places that i dont like but now i will go ahead and make another in the future a lot nicer using all ylur tips. Thankyou for sharing your talent and your generosity with your free tutorials. I appreciate it very much.
I have been dreading a grapghan with multiple colours but am going to try after watching your tutorial ❣️👍😘 and hi from a little county called Suffolk in the uk
Yes, LOVE the idea of using the ends to clean things up! And if you fold the yarn, it makes it easier to thread a needle.
Thanks! Glad you like the way I do my ends. Thanks for watching! 🙂
Thank you for doing this video. I'm going to check other videos where you show this all finished. So pretty. ❤️
I know that this is so late, but I just want to let you know that I go back and refer to this video every time I do a C2C graphghan. Thanks Terri!
Thanks! I am glad it helps.
I didn't realize this was part of the project I am currently working on from Repeat Crafter Me! Thank you for this because I'm taking on my very first grapghan project and I found her pattern on Pinterest. I went right out to Dollar Tree to get these clips and they are AMAZING!! I've been using them on some of my smaller amigurumi projects too. So helpful your videos are. Thank you so much for explaining color changes and how to follow the graphs.
Glad my video was helpful and you are able to find the clips!
Great tutorial! You have inspired me to give it a go. Thanks for being such a good and patient teacher.
Thanks, Janny! Makes me happy when I can inspire others. Have a wonderful weekend!
This is great! I’ve learned so much from your tutorials! Love doing this!
Thank you!
Been binge watching your videos, they are all so very interesting and your work is amazing!
Glad I found your channel.
One day I will be caught up on all your videos. I watch them while I do my crocheting. This method you use for your graph crochet is really nice, thanks so much for showing it. Will help me be brave enough to try doing one myself. 😊
Thanks Lyn! For you first one, I would suggest a very simple design with just a few colors in it. Here is a link to a pumpkin square that I did a tutorial on: ruclips.net/video/oTo915InC-Y/видео.html
There are 4 parts to it. I sent you the link to part 1 Right handed. You can find the other parts to it on my channel. There is also left handed versions.
Great tutorial! I'm glad you told us about the way you use the tails to tidy up the blocks. When I watched the link you shared with me I noticed the joining caused the slip st to show. I'm glad you took the time to show us how you do it. It looks daunting until I actually see someone working on it. Thank you again for taking time to help. I really want to try one.
Glad you enjoyed the video. I am hoping that since I was using so many bobbins that it won't scare people off from trying it. Lol!
Yarnjoy Podcast it didn't put me off, it actually shows me how much goes into it and that it's very do-able
Wonky is totally a word👍this was super helpful. I tread my yarn exactly the same. Thanks!
😀
Just found this tutorial! Thank you! So helpful! It answered my dumb questions! I will try to stop at dollar store Friday for the giant clothespins.
Happy that my tutorial helped you. graphgans are addicting. Lol
Love this! This will help whenever I will do my first c2c blanket for my daughter! :-)
Thanks, Melissa! Glad it will be of help to you! Have a great weekend!
This has been so helpful. I am starting my first big graph of a monster truck and this has answered a lot of questions.
Glad I could help.
Wow! You make it look way toooo easy 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼thank you so much! It’s really really helpfull 🌸🌸🌸🧶
OMGosh, now I know why I've never done one of these before. I bow down to you, Terri, and your craft and what could only be your tenacity to keep going when you first learned to do this. I would go bald from pulling my hair out trying to do one of these. Nope, this is not for me. We all have or limitations and I've just found mine when it comes to crochet. Good on you and all the other people who attempt and retain how to do a graphghan. It wasn't your teaching. It was all the bobbins, colors and this won't match up with that and cut this and bring this one along. If I was a smoker or a drinker, I'd seriously go have a smoke or a drink right now just watching this being done.
Yes, Cindy, I realize this is not for everyone. Lol. Back when scrapbooking gained popularity, I tried to get into doing it, but it just wasn't for me. I admit that I wouldn't want to do this kind of project all the time, but I do like to do a variety of projects. Have a wonderful weekend! 🙂
I definitely needed this tutorial- thank you for taking the time to show us
You are welcome
Your use of the pegs as bobbins and your turning method is brilliant, thank you. This has been doing my head in, untangling the different balls of yarn after every turn. I’m going to go and look for some giant clothes pegs.
Hope you will be able to find some. I really love using them! Have a great weekend!
Yarnjoy Podcast I found some on the internet thanks. I’m looking forward to using them soon. Thanks again.
i have watched a few videos and yours by far is the easiest to follow!!! thank you!!! and i was gonna go to wally world but i am glad to see i can get the clips at dollar tree!!!
Hope you found the clips.
Thanks, Terri. This was really helpful.
You're welcome, Catherine! Uploading my next tutorial today. Since I am left handed, I had to flip the video to make it right handed. I forgot about that when I filmed it and showed the printed pattern in the video. When I flipped it for right handers, the text on the paper pattern is backwards. :( Hope that is not going to put people off. Will definitely remember that for the next one.
You are such a perfectionist! I love it!
Not sure about that. Lol! Thanks for watching. Merry Christmas to you and your family!
@@YarnjoyPodcast thanks for taking the time to make this video. I have not been tucking or weaving in my tails. lol I've been knotting them off and cutting away!
That's some serious colour changing equipment there 😊
Yes, it was a little hairy there for a bit. Lol. Thankfully, it was only for a few rows and then I was able cut some of them.
I'm just getting into C2C, and this helped explain a lot. I was doing small trial swatches with kartopu Amigurumi yarn. With only 3 colors. Now I see better when I should cut and when to carry. Thank you.
That is great, Shannon! Glad I could help.
Thank you for this. I'm working on a corner to corner now and the yarn balls are getting all mixed up. This I hope will work.
That's a really helpful idea! Thank you! :)
You're welcome!
A lot of work in corner to corner pattern. 3 months ago I was trying to do that to make a Batman appliqué for a toss pillow I couldn’t catch on. Your tutorial was a big help for me. Thank you.
That's great! Glad I could help!
Great tutorial. Very helpful and easy to understand
Thanks! Glad it helped you.
Hi Terri, Your tutorial was so helpful to me. I was so unhappy with my santa that I stopped doing the CAL, but I really wanted to finish this for xmas. But with your tips I am going to try again. Thank you so much.
So glad that you are going to give it another go! Always happy to inspire others. Please feel free to post your progress pics over on our Facebook Group so we can cheer you on! :)
Yarnjoy Podcast wonderful !!!!!could you tell me when the decrease begins to form the picture?...thank you
Aww Teddy! He's protecting his domaine 😂😂😂❤
Loved this tutorial! Thank you so much for making this. I just learned how to C2C this weekend and I came across the Christmas afghan. Color changing is intimidating as well as managing all the bobbins. But thanks to your video I think I can do it.
You are welcome! Just take it line by line. When I did this square, it was only a few lines where I was having to carry a lot of bobbins. Then I was able to cut a few of them off. The bobbins I used were helpful as well.
Thank You! Thank You! I have trouble with all the color changes, mine ends up in a big mess. I’m going to see (hopefully) if the Dollar Tree near me has those clips. You have been a huge help!
You are welcome! They usually have those clip where they have the laundry items like clothes line, laundry bags, hangers etc...
Finally. Someone who holds their yarn and needle the way I do. In every other tutorial they all hold it so weird... 😉
Omg...sis u have a ton of patience 😱 wow. Peace love and human kindness Kim-n-Carolina 🏖
Thanks! Most of the chart was only carrying maybe 3 or 4 colors at a time. There were only a few hairy rows where I had to have a bunch of bobbins going then I was able to cut some of them off. Lol.
I like your tips you where very helpful to me the peg idea is great
Thanks! Glad I could help!
Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!
Thanks!
thank you Terri
Hello I really appreciate this video because l have only just learned the C2C stitch but I now have to make pattern pillows and I was having major issues that l frustrated
thank you so much this was so helpful I'm new at c2c crochet thanks again
Glad I could help. I love c2c!
amazing contents friend
Awesome
Were you the genius that came up with using these clips to make bobbins for the c2c? I saw this in a Facebook group a couple of days ago and went and bought some, omg it makes graphgans soooooo much easier! Thank you!
No, Cristy, I didn't originally come up the idea. Just passing the idea on. Thanks for watching!
Brilliant!! Now I need to go to the dollar tree
Thank you for sharing. I have a teddy bear pattern blanket to make but the corner to corner threw me. Lol
Muchas gracias corazón........
I'm memorized! I'm at the very beginning of the c2c learning process! Your explanations really clarify a lot of my questions! I was wondering, would it work to use a dowel rod to clip the bobbins to so it could just be picked up a d flipped? Can't wait to start a graphgan for my Grands!!
I haven’t used a dowel before but that sounds like a good idea. Worth a try. Thanks for watching!
Loving the bobbin idea, however I feel you need to change colour just one step earlier?? There’s that one stitch that seems the wrong colour.
To thread the needle- fold the yarn in half and then take the needle hole and push it over the loop that is made when you fold the yarn in half. Pull through. So much easier to thread the needle.
Thanks, Jennifer! I have seen some people do this, I just keep forgetting to try it. Lol! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for showing how to change the colors. Can you tell me where you buy the clips (yarn wrap around the clip)?
Got them from Dollar Tree. They are jumbo clothes pins.
Can you use these bobbins for other projects that only have say three colors?
Yes, Nadine. If the design is very detailed, you may use more than one bobbin for each color.
This is very good instruction! Thank you!! Ttyl, on my way to Dollartree!! 😃
Awesome! Hope you can find them. I have about 3-4 sets of them now. Lol. Very helpful!
Yarnjoy Podcast
I did get some!! I was having SO much trouble with the tangling!! 😖
Your video helped me a lot!! Thanks again! 😃
apox how much yarn do you put on each bobbing ?
Hi Donna! I usually just fill up the bobbin with however much will fit.
Ty for videos I want no if a photo pic of a person or place can be used in this c2c or straight across?
Yes, you can use a photo if you can get it charted. Stitchfiddle.com is a place where you can upload any image and put it in chart form. But a photo would probably have a lot of detail which means it would take a chart with lots of squares to make it look right. Whether you use the c2c method or straight across with sc, depends on how big you want it to turn out to be. In c2c, each square on your chart equals to 3 stitches. With straight across sc, each square on your chart will equal 1 stitch.
? If There Let’s say. I wanted too add a light blue too a pattern and then let’s medium blue and then. The pattern only call for 49 stitches and the next row is 47. , would I turn and just finish the design and then add the other color for it ?
Hello mam. Nice explanation. Can u pls share how to crochet c2c adult beanie .
I haven't ever made a c2c beanie. Glad you enjoyed my video.
I'm new at c2c and was wondering what site do you go to for the graph picture to print out??
Hi Jasmine! Here is the website where I got the Christmas squares from: www.repeatcrafterme.com/2015/09/crochet-christmas-character-afghan.html

Thank you,regards!! Ankica from Croatia
They are jumbo plastic clothes pins. I got them at my local Dollar Tree. Maybe you can find them on Amazon.
Where did u get ur bobbins? I need those!
Dollar Tree. They are jumbo clothes pins.
I noticed the red yarn you used was glittery. Can you tell me the name and brand of yarn that was please? And thank you so much for making this titoi
I lost the label on that yarn a long time before I was making that blanket so I am not sure. It was just some leftover yarn that I had. Caron Simply Soft Party yarns have a sparkle to it, but it was not that. It was a little thicker yarn than Caron Simply soft.
@@YarnjoyPodcast okay thank you.
Do you have this pattern available?
Hi Tammy! It is from the Christmas Character blanket from Sarah Zimmerman from Repeatcrafterme.com. I have a link to it above in my description box. It is a great pattern!
Where did you get those clips ?
You can get them at dollar tree or online
