@Meema • You are a goddess! Wonderful explanation and great photography. My only complaint is your non-descript title. I would have preferred something that makes the video easier to retrieve when I need it, e.g., easy invisible join for granny squares. But much thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us.
@@yvonnetomenga5726 Thankyou, don’t think I’ve been called a goddess before! I’ll keep the title in mind for future videos. It seems to be reaching a lot of people so I don’t want to change it right now!
Wow! They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks but at 70 I've just learnt this!! I've subscribed to see what else you have up your sleeve!! I've been crocheting since I was 8 years old and never seen this before.
Funny you should say that, because I think all old dogs need new tricks! True enough that there is nothing new under the sun but some of the old dogs just don't know everything and should learn a new trick. They think they know it all but alas, they don't, right?
I use this method no matter what I’m working on. The tops of all crochet stitches look the same so this method works with everything. Thanks for sharing this with everyone! It truly does give any project an invisible and secure finish.
I’ve been using the invisible stitch but getting frustrated weaving the ends in. Thank you for showing how and for suggesting the sharp needle! Little tips like that make such a difference. 😊
Thank you! I've been crocheting for nearly 60 years and have always been bothered by the old way of finishing off. I love this new way and will start using it on my next project! ❤
Brilliant! I've been looking for just this kind of instruction. Thank you so much. I'm still fairly new to making things in crochet but I want to make a few things for Christmas this year, now they will be so much neater. All the patterns I look at show beautifully clear crochet stitches at the joins and finishes, which mine don't look like. Now they will. Thanks again!
I’ve watched several of your videos and seen some of the granny blankets you’ve made; they are gorgeous! Thank you for this video, one of the most helpful and essential in crocheting🙂👍
Thank you for this! I'm now admiring my beautiful neat join...on an incredibly lumpy, wonky, uneven granny square, my second ever XD I look forward to getting better with practice!
Game changer, thank you so much for publishing this tutorial. I'm in the middle of my first granny square project, a summer top for my daughter. The last stitch of the colours and the last row was a real problem for me as I'm not a routine crocheter (yet), as it either was a bump or I had one stitch too much. About half of the necessary squares are already finished, but the second half will look slightly better. Probably, no one will ever notice, but I know and my happiness with my finished project is very important 😂
Thank you so much! So well explained - just learning crochet so I’m totally here for it! You should totally have a course! I would be a customer - love your style and adding extra explanation 🎉
Thank you so much for this tip! I am pretty new to crochet and was just learning a new blanket and that little nub didn't look that nice at the end of each round. This solved the problem completely!
Beginner crocheter here, literally undoing all my granny squares slip stitches from my current project now to replace them with this invisible join 😆 It looks so much better!
Really good explained. ❤Hack what I do, I start with the pointy needle, but I make the invisible stitch with the back side of the needle. I mean with the eyelet side of the needle. Than turn and use the pointy side to sew like you did. No needle change, try it.
@meemamakes welcome, I like how you teach, direct and precise. I watch all of your videos, even if I know the methods. Do you have the cc translator made in for all languages. That helps to get views. Write in the video description CC all languages. Or make it in writing over all your tump nails. That brings more viewers. You deserve it. Also, ask in the middle of a video for a tumps up and ask a question, where we should answer it in comments. That brings the algorithm up. Just some tipps
Clever. Definitely going to try that. I always run it through stitches to finish it off as you do, it the the rest that is new to me. In a way it reminds me of the Kitchener Stitch used to join the toe seam on socks. 😊
I use this method. More recently instead of tying off or elaborate weaving of ends I have been taking the end down through the nearest post and along the next row then needle felting the end into the row below hiding it under the stitches. This gives an almost invisible join and last through multiple washes without coming undone.
Hi there. So happy to have found your channel! I love the Invisible Join! Definitely a game changer for me. I also like the different option to use instead of the chain 3 at the beginning of the rounds. So many more options than ever before. Thank you for a great tutorial! Looking forward to following your channel! 🤗🤗
I have known about this technique for quite sometime now but rest assured I will come back to it a lot for a refresher. And you will definitely be helping others too. Thank you for the nice welcome!💗
I had to add another row of granny squares to a project and when I used the flat stitch join, this worked out perfectly when joining the new row of gs to the garment. I just did your “fake” stitch into the first join stitch of the project’s beginning join stitch that was already done. Hope that’s clear. Works perfectly for that purpose.
Thank you so much! I’ve just started making granny squares (even though I’ve been crocheting for years) and that little bump was getting on my nerves sooo much! 😂❤
I love the invisible join (aka needle join). Makes the front of the work so pretty. However, I am having trouble with a bump on the back in the cases where I have to skip over a formed stitch, versus a starting chain. That formed stitch pops out the back. Any tips on how to avoid, or hide, that?
It depends whether the pattern counts the starting chain as a stitch. It will usually say something like “ch3 (counts as dc)”. If it says your starting chain does not count as a stitch then this will create an additional stitch that will need to be accounted for in additional rows

I do tend to use this wherever I can as well! Makes thinks much easier when adding in more rounds or joining squares together
@@meemamakes ☺️
So do I ❤
Pero si hay que dar muchas vueltas hay que cortar el hilo en cada vuelta?
@@iridiosa sorry but I don’t understand.
I have been crocheting for about 150 years, and have something new and useful today. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Me, too, Helen! Time flies when you're having fun!
😂
You’re funny ☺️😁
I didn't know vampires crochet too!
I am new to crocheting and thought the bump was just something to live with! 😃 thank you so much for sharing this SUPER helpful tip 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️
I'm so glad this has helped!
Ok fine. You're right. I'm buying tapestry needles. Where were you approximately 300 granny squares ago🫠
I’ve been using the invisible stitch but getting frustrated weaving the ends in. Thank you for showing how and for suggesting the sharp needle! Little tips like that make such a difference. 😊
It definitely does make all the difference! Thankyou for commenting 😊
That whole square looks so accurate and clean!
Thankyou
I have be3n crocheting for over 50 years and just recently learned this. I wish I knew this sooner.
me too. I learn something new almost every day
! You CAN teach an "old" dog new tricks...yes you can.
Yes! I do hate that bump! That's pretty darned amazing. Thanks! 💕💕💕
Glad you liked this 🥰
Thank you! I've been crocheting for nearly 60 years and have always been bothered by the old way of finishing off. I love this new way and will start using it on my next project! ❤
Lovely! Short, sweet and to the point. Great demo of a great idea.
Glad you liked it!
Excellent explanation. Thank you. Greetings from Ireland. 👍🇮🇪
Omg where has this video been all my life!!! Thank you so much 🥰
You're so welcome!
I was so unmotivated to do anything with granny squares because of the bump. thanks to You, because now I enjoy these crispy edges 💗
Love this and your instruction style is clear and perfect speed! Thank you- I have always wanted my work to look more seamless and now it will!!😊
Wow! I’ve been crocheting for years and never seen this method. So helpful!
I’m so happy this has helped! It’s such a useful trick
Wow this is so smart! Thanks for sharing your wisdom!
Thank you! I will try this. Just thought I would say, you have the sweetest voice.
I have been using this since I first saw you show us how to finish during the tutorial for the solid granny squares. Thank you so much!!!
You are so welcome and I’m glad you’ve found lots of use for it. It’s definitely my favourite crochet tip so deserved it’s own video 😊
This is crazy amazing! And wonderfully explained!! Thank you so very much!! ❤
Thank you for explaining it without hurrying. I finally got it!

Glad I could help!
Thank you for sharing! Very useful
Oh, my goodness! I have never seen this! Thank you so much.

This is brilliant miss gurl
Wow this is logical and I wished I'd thought of this myself it would have improved my work emensly
Clever. Definitely going to try that. I always run it through stitches to finish it off as you do, it the the rest that is new to me. In a way it reminds me of the Kitchener Stitch used to join the toe seam on socks. 😊
Yes it is a lot like Kitchener stitch! A little easier to master than Kitchener though 🤣 I always have to follow a tutorial for sock toes

so glad to come across your videos on my recommended page, this is life changing
Thank you for sharing this method, I like using the sharp needle as well to weave in ends 😊
Great post!!! My Granny's always look so loop sided - thanks!!

Yes it is clear and glad that it works so well for this join too!
Simple but genius ❤️
This works fantastically. I love this. Thank you so much for sharing. I just used this. What a difference. ❤❤
wow, this was great..thank you
Yes, I do not like that bump one bit. This is a wonderful solution. Thank you

Super , merci beaucoup d'avoir partagé votre astuce . C'est gentil à vous 😊😘
That bump has been annoying for a long time, but with your hack no more bumps. Thanks
Brilliant thanks and beautifully demonstrated x 👏
Brilliant!! Thank you for sharing this ❤
You're so welcome!
I love the invisible join (aka needle join). Makes the front of the work so pretty.
However, I am having trouble with a bump on the back in the cases where I have to skip over a formed stitch, versus a starting chain. That formed stitch pops out the back. Any tips on how to avoid, or hide, that?
The only way I have found is to decrease the stitch count of the pattern by 1 and use the starting chain as the stitch
Always glad to see someone as paranoid about ends coming out as I am. I always double back. at least once. depending on my paranoia level that day.
Thank you for this tip! 😊
Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤❤
Hi there :-) thank you for this tip. Can you please tell me if this keeps the stitch count the same and doesn't add a stitch ? Many thanks
It depends whether the pattern counts the starting chain as a stitch. It will usually say something like “ch3 (counts as dc)”. If it says your starting chain does not count as a stitch then this will create an additional stitch that will need to be accounted for in additional rows
Thank you. Great tip!💜💜💜
Thank you so much!! I hate those tied off knots!!+ ❤❤❤
