When joining squares by crotchet, how do you join the corners once you have crochet vertically?

Dear Arbaiah Aird, when you have crocheted the squares tog horizontally, work the bands together the same way vertically. Happy crocheting!

Thanks for this way of connecting squares for an afghan. It is just what I was looking for. Afghan is for a guy and I wanted some thing simple. Thanks again.

Jeg har ser video hækl ruder sammen. Men hvordan når næste rude og række skal hækles med ???? Er der en video med det? Hjørnerne skulle jo også gerne blive pæne. Skal det være luft Master der danner et kryds? Og hvor mange lm skal der være for at det passer til?

How to crochet squares together with chain stitches and single crochet

In this DROPS video we show how you can crochet squares together with chain stitches and single crochet. Lay 2 squares together, wrong side to wrong side, and work through both layers like this: 1 single crochet around the chain stitches in the corner, * 4 chain stitches, skip 3 double crochets (= double crochet groups) and crochet 1 single crochet between 2 double crochets groups, *, work from *-* up to and including the next corner, work 1 chain stitch (transition to the next 2 squares), work 1 single crochet around the corner on the next square. Work from *-* until the row has been worked together. Cut the strand, then work the squares together in width in the same way. We use the yarn DROPS Paris in the video. This technique is used in several patterns - you can find patterns by clicking on the pictures below:

How to crochet a flounce edge to a garment with a lace pattern

In this DROPS video we show how to crochet a flounce edge to a garment. Work from the wrong side, fasten the strand with a single crochet around a decrease in the lace pattern, insert the hook through the garment (from the wrong side to the right side - the strand stays on the wrong side), then insert the hook between the 2 outermost double crochets on the flounce and then back through to the wrong side of the garment, make 1 yarn over and pull the strand through the loops on the hook so the flounce is attached to the yoke *, work 8 chain stitches (on the wrong side of the garment), skip to the next decrease on the garment, insert the hook through the garment (from the wrong side to the right side - the strand stays on the wrong side), then insert the hook between the 6th and 7th double crochet after the last time the flounce was attached to the garment, and then back to the wrong side of the garment, make 1 yarn over and pull the strand through the loops on the hook so the flounce is attached to the yoke *, repeat from *-*. It is important the seam is not tight as this will make the garment less elastic. We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video. You must also read a pattern (and look at the chart(s)) to be able to follow this video properly. You’ll find a pattern using this technique by clicking on one of the pictures below.
