"I MADE GRANNY SQUARES! NOW WHAT?"

FOUR WAYS TO JOIN

Here are a few ways to join motifs for a variety of results...

Double crochet join: A bulky feature seam worked with pieces WS together

Whipstitch needle join: A neat flat seam worked with pieces flat

Zipper join: Surface crochet slip stitches worked with pieces flat for a flat seam

Treble clusters join: A classic, fairly flat join-as-you-go seam worked with pieces flat

If you love Granny Square Day like I do then you'll probably end up with a big pile of granny squares pretty soon! But then what? Joining them together into a blanket or garment or other project sounds simple, but many crocheters get stuck at the joining stage. So I'm here to help make it easier, quicker and more fun!
