To start each following round, a raising chain is made and the first stitch is then worked in the top of the first stitch of the round below. TY!Hi Cecilia! Hi Anne! Yes, this technique will work for just about any project that uses a slip stitch to join instead of working in continuous rounds. Yes, this technique will work for just about any project that uses a slip stitch to join instead of working in continuous rounds. Here is what my tube looks like after I have completed a few rounds in this manner:My name is Yuliya Tkacheva. The pattern says the sl st has to be done to keep the shaping so can’t work in continuous rounds. Your last st of Round 1 should fall in the last st of the foundation chain { Photo 4 }. )This is what my tube looks like after I have worked a few rounds with this method:I personally prefer the look of the seam in Method 3, which is why I use it in my patterns, even though the seam does have a lot more slant to it.Here is what my tube looks like after I have completed a few rounds:I join the last single crochet stitch to the first single crochet stitch of the round below with a slip stitch, but I don’t tighten it up, since I will be working in it at the end of the row:To illustrate these methods, I have made a chain of 20 stitches, joined it in a circle and then worked up a tube in single crochet stitches.One of the most common methods is to join the round with a slip stitch to the rather inconspicuous raising chain worked at the start of the round.
Then I create each piece with attention to fabric, fit and elegant design. The pattern goes like this:I am working on making my tension a bit looser so when I make that ‘twist’ and have to insert hook it will be a bit easier.I’m also sending this URL to a friend in FL who crochets – she’ll be a happy camper, as well.
Only the very best of my items ultimately become patterns and I take my time to make each pattern as user-friendly as possible.Thanks for stopping by, and feel free to comment — I love hearing from you!I now work my last stitch of the current round in the joining slip stitch of the round below:Once again, if you are working from a pattern it is essential to follow the method suggested – it is generally either of the first two methods. Before starting the next round, lay a piece of scrap yarn over your work { Photo 5 }. I don’t want to have to cut the yarn after every row since it is the same colour.
A typical mistake would be to skip it and to go straight to the next stitch, thus running short of one stitch at the end of the round. Thank you!The Invisible Slip Stitch does just what its name implies.
My mission is to share the joy of yarn crafts with makers of all skill levels by creating clear, thoroughly-explained video tutorials and modern, approachable projects.
For the single crochet you would join in the first SC, but for HDC it is pretty much impossible to make a straight seam.
Unless you turn after every round, the HDC will always have a tilt. Use this join to add a new color when beginning a row or round; it will give your work a nice smooth finish. Just use the chainless starting single crochet as the first stitch in each round, and join with the invisible slip stitch as shown in the video.
Yes, this method will still work even if you have to turn after each round. This step makes the turning chain for single crochet (sc).
It performs the function of a slip stitch join, but is completely invisible.It takes practice and I’m better and almost have the hat finished … and am so very happy!Hi Anne!
Will it work if I have to turn my work to do the next round from the wrong side? Begin by placing a slip knot on your hook (a), insert the hook in the stitch where you what to add the single crochet, yarn over and pull up a loop (b), yarn over and pull through both loops on hook (c). I am a crocheter, designer and the person behind MsWeaver (which is simply an English equivalent of my multi-consonant Russian surname).I think carefully about what I would love to have in my wardrobe.
