Yes, it was useful and looks beautiful! I'm so thankful for your wisdom and the kindness with which you share it with us. I've been crocheting for years and this is a tip that I wish I had long ago but I will use it from now on. ??? Can this be used for double crochet or other designs? If so, can you do another video showing how you would do that? Thank you, Olga! And, though the news has not been telling us much about Ukraine, I'm still praying for the people and for the country. Too much loss to comprehend! God knows what Ukraine needs. I pray that He brings it soon! I hope it is peaceful and free! ❤️

@OlgaPoltava 2 года назад

This specific method only works with sc. But I'll try to make more short videos like this one with useful tips, including straight edges for dc. Thank you so much for your prayers for Ukraine! 🙏🏻🇺🇦

@@willworkforyarn4893 could you elaborate? How is a standing double crochet? Is it chained? Thanks! 💗

@willworkforyarn4893 2 года назад

@@kabatox It actually eliminates the chains and makes a stronger stitch. I learned it about 20 years ago. It would be very difficult to explain how to do it in this format. I recommend going to The Crochet Crowd channel here on RU-vid. Mikey has a tutorial and is great at showing how to do it. Hope this helps you.

@obsessivecrochetdisorder3495 2 года назад

Brilliant tip; thank you very much. What is your favourite method of getting straight edges when you’re working half double and double crochet fabrics please?

@OlgaPoltava 2 года назад

That really depends on the pattern and on the yarn. In some patterns I use a beginning dc instead of 3 chains and that helps to achieve a straighter edge. Other times I would use 3 chains at the beginning of the row, but then at the end of the row I would make the last dc not into the 3rd (top) chain, but into the 2nd chain of turning 3 chains (actually in my new tutorial coming this week, I am using this method). When working with very thin yarns (such as mohair), I make dc2-tog instead of the last dc, which makes a better, straighter and sturdier edge.
