I hope this video will help you with crocheting a flat circle with no seam. Thank you for watching, Anja xx

@MsBindi190 4 года назад

Such an awesome explanation to remember how many to increase with each row! Thank you so much!!

@manessamanessa5849 3 года назад

It is not silly at all , it is very helpful tips and explained very well. Thanks a lot for your effort 👍👍

@margaretgomez7946 3 года назад

@Hiba Riyas she's used to it , she doesn't need to do it slowly

@julisaalvarez3988 3 года назад

By far the clearest explanation and demonstration I’ve seen on RU-vid. Thank you!

@dianechristopherson8737 3 года назад

DIANE Anja, I have been making hats using the basic process you have in this tutorial, however, after crocheting several rows and want to end, I find that I am on the row just above where I want to end. I can't properly end because to do the last slip stitch means making the slip stitch into the first stitch on the row below. I am new to crocheting and can't for the life of me figure out what I am doing wrong.???? Would appreciate your help if you have time.

@youareworthy22 Год назад

Here in 2023 and it's the best explanation on the internet on how to do the increases in the round. THANK YOU. This is such a game changer. Cheers to the "scared stitch"

@TamarLitvot Год назад

Ophelia I am 57 and have been crocheting and knitting for 52 of those years. You just demystified the whole process for me. 🙂 I especially appreciate your explanation of the first chain and the slip stitch forming the top of that last stitch. Thank you, thank you for cementing the process for me. ❤️

@OpheliaTalks 4 года назад

You are so welcome! Thank you for watching MaryintheMaking ! Anja xxx 💕🌈

@marionarnett9207 3 года назад

Ophelia I'm 69 yrs and have been crocheting since I was 8 years old and yes you make more sense and your way demystifies, thank you.

@marionarnett9207 3 года назад

Ophelia I started a project in the round and was going nuts trying to keep my rounds flat while increasing. I even looked for videos to help those I saw were either fast or making no sense. I found yours and was very elated. Did I say I am 69 years old and have been crocheting since 8 yrs of age. In my 40's I picked up my hook again along with many projects. You are a FANTASTIC INSTRUCTOR. And your method isn't silly at all if that's what's working for you and it helps others. Thank you for demystifying increasing rounds and keeping the project flat.

@lilisitka 3 года назад

I agree with MaryintheMaking!!! I started crocheting "circles" about 1 year ago. Every video I've watched had a different way of counting the stitches while making a flat circle, and none made sense to me. Your video made me feel like yelling "Hurray!" Thank you! 🤗

@mamadahhhling6732 2 года назад

Hellosies, I know this is a few yrs old but I just watched this video & you wrote exactly what I was gonna say also, I've been crocheting for 40+ yrs & now I get it. 💖

@marytfisher3459 5 лет назад

Finally I understand how to increase! Been intimidated for years how to increase...I love the 'scared stitch' as it really explains how to increase! And it's not silly - it helped me!

@RebelMaggie 4 года назад

Silly so called “scared stitch”

@crcr2896 3 года назад

Me too!

@kosherjew4223 2 года назад

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I was wondering why my "circles" were coming out as a hexagon. You really cleared things up for me. I love your stories about the stitches which also REALLY HELPS me understand the why and the how for the increases. Also, I love your accent!

@Sue-In-Oregon 3 года назад

THANK YOU SO MUCH... I'm 74 and like MaryintheMaking below, I am grateful to have this "demystified". Your video is a blessing to crochet fans world-wide. BLESSINGS to you from Oregon.

@OpheliaTalks Месяц назад

Thank you, Anja x

@canadian4oodie115 2 года назад

The scared new stitch idea and number of row equals the number of stitch where you multiply is a brilliant idea for someone with poor memory. Each time you said scared stitch, I couldn’t help but chuckle. Thank you lots.

@OpheliaTalks 2 года назад

Hi, thank you for watching my video, I'm so glad it's helping you remember the system, happy crocheting, Anja x

@jasminehoover5359 Год назад

Best explanation I've ever seen of anything crochet. I've been crocheting about a year and there's other concepts even that I didn't really understand until this video, like how the chains and slip stitch together make a complete stitch. These silly stories really stick in your brain, ill never forget all thiis now

@OpheliaTalks Год назад

That's great news Jasmine, glad it's been helpful for you, Anja x

@chrispkreme5262 3 года назад

@paige0824 3 года назад

I have been crocheting for nearly 30 years. The brain drain that could've been avoided over all these years if I had ONLY known, the last stitch was afraid and wanted to stay with the stitch before.. it's a wonderful story I can tell to all my fellow hookers.. THANK YOU!!!

@angie9182 5 лет назад

Seriously! There has been multiple times I have tried to do a circle and always came up with the wrong number... you slammed dunked my issue. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

@cmilam8284 2 года назад

I get you, the way you think. I am a visual learner. I learn by instruction and hands on at the same time. I unable to learn by verbal means alone. I understand how you weave a story in order to remember. Thanks, I dont feel like I am alone in the way that I think! Thanks for sharing.

@starcausewhynot9249 10 месяцев назад

I started crocheting a month ago and wasn’t able to make ANYTHING because no tutorial would ever make sense to me. I would look at the comments in a tutorial and they would all basically say the same thing “This tutorial is the best one out there”. Only it wasn’t the best one because THIS one is!! You explain stuff so easily and I just finished my first ever circle that I will be using as a coaster. I am over the moon to finally find someone who explains everything in a way someone like me could understand. I’m now going to make 700 flat circles for my house :DD

@OpheliaTalks 10 месяцев назад

@newleaf6393 5 лет назад

Thank you so much, Anja, from sunny Trinidad! You are a natural born teacher. I will never forget this tip and I'm already imagining all the possibilities for flat circles - table runners, coasters, trivet, rugs, scrubbies.... Ahhh... the possibilities are endless!! Thanks again 😊

@CindyKinney 6 лет назад

Oh, Anja, what an awesome memory tip for crocheting in the round. As you said, it may be a silly little thing, but who cares when it's greatly helping you to keep track? I'm all for tips and tricks for memory or crochet. I also noticed that with this process of chaining up 2 and then forgetting about it gives a much cleaner finish with no unsightly seam in the project. Thanks again, Anja, for your wonderful guidance.

@OpheliaTalks 6 лет назад

yes, i kept doing this and making up the story in my head of the scared stitches, and one day i thought i have got to share this because it works!! also no seam visible indeed, added bonus !!! thanks for watching!! xxx

@CindyKinney 6 лет назад

Anja, I have a tip for you in case you don't know of this one. It reminded me to share with you when you made your couch cushion with tassels and just kept forgetting. Did you know that if you steam your tassels, they will look very straight and pristine and just have a more professional look to them.

@OpheliaTalks 6 лет назад

aaahh! yes, I was just waiting for them to 'straighten out' but that will speed it up and look nicer!! Thanks!! xxx

@melniee2551 6 лет назад

Another good thing other than no seam is that the circle is staying round - no strange corners like in some circle patterns!

@aselaoliveras9433 5 лет назад

Hello there Cindy, do you use this sc for amigurumis toys?

@shandramarr2978 2 года назад

I've watched a dozen beginner flat circle videos. Anja, this one is the best!! I will never forget. Thank you so much. This is when I wish my Dutch grandmother was here to teach me again. Crocheting brings back so many memories of her from childhood.

@TheAngelAquarius Год назад

Thank you for this video on how to make a flat circle coaster! I love your tip in keepig track of how many stitches you are to suppose to do in each row by stating that the last stitch in a count is afraid so it wants to be in the same stitch as the previous stitch. It is so clever!

@Iissafaith 5 лет назад

What a great way to teach little ones how to crochet! The little story is cute. Also - thank you! After I don’t know how many years of trying to figure out how to do a magic circle, your tutorial is the only one that allowed me to - finally! - figure it out. Sounds silly, I know but, it was always elusive to me. So, again; thank you!

@taya235uuu 2 года назад

I'm 22, I've just started crocheting again and I've already reviewed so many videos to understand how to increase past the second row, and you've laid it out comprehensively and quickly! Thank you so much for simply demonstrating what I have been struggling with for two days.

@OpheliaTalks Год назад

Hello Ellen, you're very welcome, glad it's helpful, thank you Anja x

@voyager9028 3 года назад

Thank you so much for this tutorial. Counting the first ch2 as the last stitch instead of the first makes all the difference. Your instructions do indeed make a perfectly flat circle with no seam. When making a hat, I've found that starting with 8 stitches (instead of 10) will cause the crown of the hat to gently curve down to where the straight sides begin.

@sizwiz 5 лет назад

Anja, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! I will never dread beanies ever again and not have that dreadful crooked line either! You are such a love. My Nanny and my Grandmother's help teach me to crochet. Also, our housekeeper, helped when my parents would go out of country. They had a dairy farm in Surrey. I loved it there. It just took a few days to get acclimated to the smell of silage. Whew! That is some smelly stuff! However, after a few days one couldn't smell it anymore. I do rattle on! I do appreciate you so much. I've been a subscriber forever and have always loved you. But this video will change my crochet life! You see, I have eight grandchildren and they love my beanies. I take them to pick out their yarn and then I whip up their little beanies, some not so little anymore.❤ Thank you dear one!

@ksmith0602 4 года назад

Ophelia ... I'm sure you won't see this but I have been crocheting only 5 years on and off since my momma passed. I have never been able to crochet a circle without it looking wonky somewhere on it. After your video I am encouraged to crochet more and even "hubby" said my work was very pretty. I consider myself still a beginner and just venturing out with other projects since the pandemic. We never know what someone's word will do for us! Your circle story is perfect for me ... a 30 year retired elementary teacher. Thank you and God bless you and your work.

@wandasway6882 4 года назад

Anja, you are the only tutorial maker I have found who does things the way I do. I never thought of thinking of the stitch as being scared but do like the anthropomorphism of considering the stitch as being scared.

WOW!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!! It's not that I'm getting old or anything (66) but, my memory seems to get shorter as I get older. This is a great way for me to remember how many stitches I need to increase to make a circle! Bless you!! Love Mimi

@meganagg Год назад

Your video changed my life. I was always reluctant to crochet circles because I didn't know where to slip stich the row together (so many instructions say in the top of the chain 2 and I would second guess myself) or where to put the first or last stitch. I would also get flustered trying to remember the increase pattern for each round. Your instructions are so clear and easy to remember. I love the repeat pattern rather than trying to memorize. Now I LIKE crocheting circles and do so with confidence! Thank you so much for sharing your technique and story!!

@OpheliaTalks Год назад

You're so welcome Megan, so glad my tutorial was useful for you, thank you, Anja x

Hello Anya, I have only been crocheting for 5 months. And wished I had seen is in the very beginning! Would have saved me a lot of frogging. 😊 Thank you so much, your explanation was perfect and so easy to remember. Looking forward to watching all your teachings! Take Care.

@ledemele4408 4 года назад

You are the only one who has been able to show me this in a way where I end up with a round instead of a hexagon. Thank you so much. Not even my mum who has crocheted for over 60 years could explain it like ypu. A million thanks . You have saved me from pulling my rounds out over and over, bewildered as you why it wasn’t working. Much respect

On the other hand, if you ARE making a hat, start with 8 stitches (instead of 10), and it will curve correctly until you begin the straight sides.

OK, nice mnemonic for the increase principle. You have a lovely workmanship, tension is perfectly even, tidy but not tight.

Hi from Australia. Your technique is a winner for sure. My daughter wanted 2 round 45cm doilies for tables in black and after many failed attempts of wavy doilies watched this video, was mesmerised and gave it a crack! Ended up using black cotton yarn 8 ply did 19 rows and a scalloped border. Looks fantastic and is totally flat. Daughter is so happy and I am thrilled with the outcome. Thank you for sharing this with all of us ‘pandemic’/lockdown’ crocheters.

Thanks for your comment, much appreciated! Keep watching xxx

It is indeed a superb tip. The new stitch being scared goes in with the previous stitch may sound silly but it is definitely going to be worth remembering the increase in this way. I have had to redo quite a bit sometimes but this tip just has got stamped in my memory. Thank you very much Anja for sharing.

I'm new to crochet and this video of yours is the best yet!!!! I finally understand how and when to increase. My daughter wants me to make her a flat circle elephant head with ears and truck holding sunflowers and this really helped me get started. She wants it about two or three feet wide. Thank you so much.

I have battled with wavy circles for years. This is the best and easiest way to prevent the waves and keep count of stitches and rows. I can’t thank you enough.
