Sandie's Suggestion for continuous joins

[darski]

I learned about this from Sandie's newsletter and had to check it out right away.

 

it wasn't what I was expecting but it is intriguing. Please note that it is only the 1st of 4 vids on that topic.

I am going to check out Beth Ham's channel at You Tube as well. I love how these women share so generously with those of us who are technopeasants.

 

I have just subscribed to Beth's vids at You Tube - her list is here

Wow! That was confusing. Maybe I'm just not very bright when it comes to crochet. I am just now learning how to sl st the squares together and I have been crocheting since I was little. Only made one granny ghan and it was a catastrophe. That was about 15 years ago. But, this is confusing to me.

[darski]

yeah... it is an advanced technique. But we are always looking for new ways of doing stuff

Hey, that's slick! Can you imagine trying to get that without video?!

[FosterMom]

Thanks for sharing that video. Sometimes the vids help more then the read instructions. When I learned flat braid I used the vid and stopped it so I could do it along. Helped tons.

 

Continuous join is not as hard as it looks and gets rid of all the horrible end weaving! Give it a try its one of those have to do things for it to click.

 

Thanks again

Wow that's cool! I would much rather crochet than weave or wip stitch!

Amen sister! Amen!

 

 

I am def going to use it with my charity squares this month. Could be a challenge to keep them all straight but well worth it.

I like the concept. I'll try it soon. Thanks for letting us know about this way of joining.

Hi all! I'm glad you like my videos! It's really not that difficult once you get the concept down. Following the chart is the key.

I just made them into a play list so you can watch them all consecutively.

Oh wow! That's awesome! I love making single giant granny afghans but haven't yet made one of little squares because I don't care for sewing things together. When I finally get around to making one I'll definitely be using this method.

 

Great videos, Beth!
