FINALLY! A video that makes sense and isn't over complicated. Thank you so much!

[TheLballou]

Just perfect...it has been forever and I had forgotten. This makes so much sense, no extra talk. Thank you!

[allisonmichel]

A lovely tutorial, thank you. I like the straight forward, no extra talk style as well, very clear presentation. Well done. Thanks again

Thank you so much. This is the best joining tutorial I have seen. You answered many questions for me. I will be using your method. Most tutorials I watched previously did not explain how to attach the rows. Awesome tutorial 👌 Thank you 😊

I have finally joined all my granny squares and finished my huge blanket..
I’m so glad I came across your videos, it’s the best and easiest way to join granny squares..
Now I have started on my next granny square blanket and will be using your joining method again & always will ..
Thankyou so much again … ❤

Thank you! Very neat looking on the righthand side. Thank you for explaining how to go about joining the longer rows afterwards, specially what to do in the corners.

I'm currently making a granny square baby blanket for a friend due in February. This way of joining the squares is so easy, but cute. I used a different colour for joining the squares, the ridge adds a border to the squares. It's just amazing.

😘😘😘 Thank You, Thank You, Thank You 'Blossom I have been looking for a simpler and easy method of joining all of my granny squares for eight months - refusing to move forward until I got it in my head, what to do!! And you nailed it!!! Your instructions and explanations were absolutely clear!!!
I've noted that this video was September 2017 and it's now July 2022 - I do hope that you are well, and I'm soooo grateful for locating this tutorial! Now!!!! I can stop procrastinating 💋💞

Thank you for this. I have a granny square Afghan that my grandmother made years and years ago. I decided to remake it, so I can preserve hers, and wasn’t sure how to join the squares. This is a big help. I’m a knitter with a basic knowledge of crochet.

I panicked, I thought I saved your video after using it to join my first blanket, but I didn't, gah! Watched several others while I looked for this one, and they are fine, but not as well explained and shot to show what you need to see. I'm ready to join my 2nd blanket and needed a refresher....someday it will stick, maybe by blanket 6 haha! Thank you!

[carolmking]

Thank you for your patiently detailed video especially the finishing off the ends of the yarn...very simply and neat. Thanks.

[geena]

I am still using your granny square tutorial and especially the joining method, it’s the only joining method I use, , it’s so easy .. Thankyou so very much again 🩵

[annakebeck]

Thank you so much. You have just given me courage to finish off my 3 year project. Had no clue how to know the difference between back and front. Also how to attach each square.

I love this method, I use similar as I slip stitch instead of dc and this also leaves a ridge which I love so have it on the front side of my blanket. I did try using invisible stitch to join my squares but found that my blanket was quite heavy and as it grew it didnt feel secure. Thank you for your tutorials I love watching them. You have taught me so much x

I'm fairly new to crochet and still learning. Thought your video made it simple for me to understand and I'm actually doing it. Thank you.

[nubiacairo]

Thank you so much. I've just learned for the first time this week to make granny squares. I had no idea how to join them. This was beautiful and so helpful. Once again thank you so much.

[kathleenf]

I just love your tutorials. I have learned so much as a beginner, and I really appreciate you showing us all the tips and tricks. Thanks so much...!

Wondeful tutorial as always. I’m going to brave and make a blanket for my mother. It will take a long time, but I’m sure she will be happy to receive it. Many thanks.

[gregsgirlau]

Im on my third granny square blanket for our fur baby and this video is my go to when i border and join them its so non stressful 😊😊

[rebeccahenderson]

Oh my goodness! This was so easy to follow, but I really wish I'd found your tutorials sooner! My next granny square blanket will be much tighter as I won'r chain between my DC's.
