1. This is sooo much less overwhelming for making anything that has multiple granny squares. I crochet to help with my anxiety and depression as well as to craft beautiful and useful items/gifts but the joining process has stalled many of my projects. This helps a lot so thank you! 2. Your voice, energy and smile are so lovely. I sometimes have your videos playing in the background while I'm doing chores for their soothing effect. 3. Your nails, girl! Always on point!!! I'm jealous, lol.

I have learned more about granny squares in the first 6 minutes than I have in YEARS of crochet...No wonder I never committed to a granny square blanket before! Thank you for the instruction!

I've always liked Granny Square's but despised joining them therefore I know this video was made for me!! lol In as much I honestly know all of us have been waiting with baited breath for your video. I have tons of yarn that have been screaming to be used in this project. My favorite yarns are a medium #4. I can't wait to start it. I know my beautiful colors will be gorgeous using your method of connecting. THANK YOU, THANK YOU AND THANK YOU AGAIN. 🤗😘👍😘

Hey, Toni. I'm early, so I'm motivated to comment something. I wanted to say that your content has really encouraged me to branch out in crochet, and it has helped me so much throughout quarantine. You are my favorite crochet youtuber, and your content has helped me get through 2020. I adore your podcasts, and I love your take on everything. You are such a breath of fresh air, and I think everyone can agree on that. I hope your 2021 is amazing!

I love the colour combination you used to make this blanket. Crochet granny square blankets can look so dated but the diagonal placement of the squares really modernize the look your blanket.

@tympestbooks1727 3 года назад

I was expecting this to be something like how I've seen people just chain stitching together granny squares and it never looked right to me, but now I kind of want to try this out on my next project, it looks really nice!

I love learning new things so thank you!

Great video! I've been crocheting for almost 60 yrs, since I'm 8, and I guess you can teach a "old dog" new tricks. Loved the "standing double crochet" and your video on connecting as you go was easy to understand. Love your reviews on yarn, they were some of the 1st I ever watched on RU-vid. Got hubby to buy me your book for Christmas last year and plan to start learning Tunisian this year for some gifts. Thanks Toni ❤

Where have you been? I wish I had discovered you long ago. Thankfully, I have now found you. Who knew there was such a thing as those nifty blocking boards that snap together? I've used so many things. Some of my projects are big, so I've even used my bed and every towel in the house and folded sheets and blankets underneath to protect my mattress..... I'm going to be participating in the 2021 Traveling Afghan CAL project. And I'm going to dive into mosaic crochet. If I have to sit at home, I might as well be doing something!

@tiffanyjack6095 3 года назад

Okay, so, in watching you make your magic ring, you make it with a slip stitch and you don't crochet over the part with 2 strands of yarn? Was I seeing that correctly? Omg if that works that is such a game changer! I am making this blanket for my best friend. We've been friends for over 30 years and just when she had given up hope of ever having biological kids, she got pregnant, at 43! Needless to say this baby is not only a rainbow baby, but a tiny, very much loved little girl! I started my squares last night but I wasn't quite getting it, now I am a visual learner so this helped tremendously! As always thank you!

@keciawhitehead3330 2 года назад

TL I love your tutorials! The continuous join is a big time saver. However my blanket has the 3D effect, how can I smooth out the seams? Thanks!

@mikagirl1230 2 года назад

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I just learned to crochet a granny square on your granny square beginner video. Question -- is there a reason why in that video you have us chain 2 in corners where here you only chain 1? If I chain 2 in the corner which of those should I replace with the slip stitch to the other square in JYAG? Thanks so much!

@thehadster7043 3 года назад

I was so excited. I decided to do the 2021 Traveling Afghan Seasons. I have my yarn, I have my hooks. I went to work up my text swatch to check my gauge. Massive typo in the instructions. I tried to reach out to them, could not find an email. I posted on their blog's website, but as they did not respond to a previous post asking about this years CAL, I'm not sure they check their blog. The FB page is stagnant. I will try Instagram, but I'm not hopeful. I'm going to reach out to Lion Brand. Maybe they can contact Whistles and Wool.

@christinelawrence1926 3 года назад

Toni I just found your channel- excellent tutorials and hacks! I KNOW THIS IS WEIRD, BUT...as a nurse, I am curious about the dark spot on the inner side of your right index finger. I see it in multiple videos, so I assume it isn't an injury. Have you had it checked by a dermatologist? I ask because dark freckles, especially in unique locations, can signal trouble. I had a patient with a 'freckle' on the side of his foot- nope, melanoma. Watching out for you girl! I look forward to learning with each new crochet gift you offer!!

@lindamcintosh7347 3 года назад

In the written pattern you crochet ch 2 between each set of 3 crochet in the corners. Which is your preferred/correct instruction?

@kata920 3 года назад

That's crazy! I hate joining squares.

@April-yy3fg 3 года назад

Would the join as you go method work with a waffle stitch? I'm thinking if I slip stitch the second in the chain at the end of a row that it would work the same. I just wonder how you would start it, in the first row of chain stitches would I slip stitch the second to the last with the piece I'm joining?
