Whipstitch Seam through Wrong Side Loops (Crochet)

There are dozens of ways to join crochet blanket squares and motifs. One of my favorite methods is the whipstitch seam through the wrong side loops only. (Click Show More for links) The unused, right-side loops line up neatly on either side of the seam, setting off each motif separately rather than blending them together.

Attaching wood handles to a crochet bag
Thank you. I'm going to try this now
awesome :)
I truly make this all the time, it looks great and is really sturdy Awesome for makeshift belts or to suspend things from. Still can’t quite memorize the start though, so I keep coming back to this video every couple of weeks 😅
That's awesome! I have a few techniques like that myself (hemstitch in weaving comes to mind) :)
Great video!! Thank you so much. You are an excellent teacher!!❤
Thanks!
Thank you so much for this!! I just encountered my first situation where I’d have to seam perpendicular panels(I mostly do amigurumi) and was completely stuck, so this video was a lifesaver! ❤🙏
You're welcome! I'm glad it helped!
Perfect timing! I found a pattern online that lost me half way through. Yours explains it perfectly and now I can pull out my black, purple and green yarn again and make some cauldrons for boo bag giveaways before Halloween!
Yay! so fun :)
You’re a great teacher!!
aww thanks! :)
Too fast to see where you are stitching especially at the beginning. Even with subtitles on, the instructions are not clear.
Thanks for the feedback. Are you following along with the written pattern? Also you can slow down the video on UA-cam if that’s helpful- click on the gear icon and you can choose the playback speed.
This is perfect, thank you! I love that you kept this tutorial quick and simple. Perfect for the quick bite of info without all the extra talk. ❤
Thanks! :)
This video was so helpful! I have been avoiding so many patterns with the slip stitch join and now with this method they finally work out right. Thanks so much!!
Awesome! :)
Big help. Thank you. 😊
you're welcome! Glad it was helpful :)
Great video! Can I ask why I'm unable to hook through all my third loops. They seem to be so tight and barely visible?
1) it could be a tension thing, try using a larger hook or crocheting more loosely, or stick a smaller hook in the third loop and wiggle it to open it up more. 2) Is the loop bigger on the other side? one side has a tiny loop like you describe, the other side has a large loop.
I have tried crocheting it more loosely as you suggested and the loops are finally bigger. Thanks!
@@AsteroidB6120 Yay! Glad I could help :)
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I'm very new at crotchet I've only made 3 small projects before this one and they were very simple designs. I was able to understand everything clearly and didn't have any questions. I've bought my last 3 projects from woobles and although they do overall a good job at explaining for the most part, there was a few times I was confused unsure on how to proceed. I didn't have that doing this cauldron! Very simple and turned out super cute! I wanted to make one because my last project was a ghost (getting all ready for Halloween already!) anyway thanks again! 🎉
Yay! Glad to hear it worked well for you :) It's hard to believe Halloween is just around the corner!
I must have seen about 10 videos on this technique ... she nailed it! Every step was easy peasy and her patience with showing it at the same time understanding her made it so easy to earn. As much as this is a necessary evil, it sure it hard on arthritic fingers! Thank you!
aww thanks! :) <3
Thank you so much for your clear, easy to understand tutorial. I came across this stitch in a pattern and hadn't got a clue what it was, the written instructions baffled me 😂. I will definitely be following you 😊
Yay! So glad it was helpful :)
Thank you for making this tutorial, i am making a cocoon vest with the stitch in original square form. But i want to make the sleeves on it with the same type of stitch. Im gonna see and try to make this work in the round, with no visible seem. I really hope i can figure it out but this video helps a ton ❤
Awesome! My $.02 without having actually done it - I would put the join at the center of a fan, 1 st before the ch-1 sp. So like...start your round with ch 4 (counts as dc and ch-1), then 4 dc in same st. End the round with 3 dc in starting st, then join in 3rd ch of ch 4, and then sl st into the ch-1 sp. That way you're set up to start the next rnd with an sc in the ch-1 sp, then ch 3, cl, etc., joining back in the first sc. On the next round, start with an sc in the first sc, and a fan in the first cl, etc, ending with a join in the first sc. Finally on the next round, start and end with a half cl. this makes 2 half cl sts which isn't idea, but on the next rnd just work into the first one and sk the ending one and your stitch count will be fine. Also remember if you're not turning your rounds, you'll always be on the RS so will need to work your clusters as back post sts instead of front post sts.
Thanks for this video! Great walk-through. Perfect for a semi-beginner like myself who doesn't know how to read crochet charts
@@ILoveAvatarShow correction… you DIDN’T know how to read crochet charts ;) glad you liked it!
Thank you so much
you're welcome! :)
1:11 start of st
Very clear and easy to follow. Thank you!
thanks!
Thank you for your simple explanation. Your voice is very calming 😊 This too helped me to understand quickly. ❤
Yay! I'm glad you liked it, and thank you :)
Great Tutorial! Thanks!
thank you! :)
This an amazing explanation!! I use to do a lot of filet crochet with thread. My hands can't handle thread anymore. Just started looking into mosaic crochet and now this has come up in my recommendations and I can't express how excited I am. Thank you.
It is SUCH a fun technique, isn't it? :) Will you be making the blanket?
Thyou for teaching.
you're welcome! :)
Thank you it is a great tutorial!
Thank you for such a fun square and wonderful teaching tutorial ❤
Glad you liked it! :)
This is just what I need! Most seaming videos show neat, stitch to stitch seaming, but sometimes that's not what you've got. Thank you very much.
You're welcome! There are so many different types of seams for all different situations, it's sometimes hard to know which one to pick!
WOW his was very well explained. Thank You 😊
Thanks! I'm glad you found it helpful :)
thank you for explaining this so thoroughly and clearly! love this cord so much, really elevates my otherwise simple coin wallets
Yay! I'm glad it worked for you - and that's a perfect place to use them! :)
Fabulous!
thanks! :)
Always looking for alternatives. Thank you
me too! I love that there are infinite ways to mix things up in crochet :)
I’m doing the Moogly 2024 CAL and this one of the squares. Thank you for sharing your video 😊

Just spectacular!

thanks! :)
@@StitchesnScraps You're welcome! :)
This pattern of fucking with my brain, and I'm only on the main gear. Seriously, what the hell?! Is this my neurodivergency acting up, or is this just really fucking difficult?
Probably a bit of both - it's definitely a complex pattern. Are you following along with the written pattern as well? If there's a particular spot where you're getting stuck, let me know - maybe I can help
Thanks!♥
You're welcome 😊
You are a life-saver! I was so, so stuck trying to understand written instructions of how to do this for a bag strap. My brain couldn't comprehend it at all. Thank you so much for explaining this so efficiently!
Glad it helped! Sometimes you just need to SEE it :)
Same here, it was very confusing when it was written but I got it immediately after watching this video ^^
@@jennifertingelof-truecrime5890 yay! :)
One of the best tutorials I've seen. This lady is awesome. As she explains what to do, she automatically answers all the questions that I would have had. No unnecessary information but everything needed to know to make this project. Pleasant and calming voice. Very nicely done. Thank you.
awww, thank you so much! You made my morning :)
What about when going back and forward in the round, do you have an invisible method for that?
You can use this whether you're turning or not :) I usually pull the loop through from the wrong side of work to the RS of work, so the only difference if turning is that you may want to pull the loop through in opposite directions for RS and WS rounds.
Thank you. This video was sooo helpful compared to the other two videos I watched!
Yay! Glad it helped!
How do you make the foundation row?do you make a chain of 6+2;then turn and do single sc in each stitch?
It should be 6+4 chs (6+3 sts) - I had 21 for the sample. But you don't have to start from sc, you can start from chains or from any sts really, you just need a multiple of 6+3 spots to work into.
Very clear
Thank you SO much!
Thank you for your very clear instructions!
you're very welcome! :)
Fantastic teaching! I was able to learn how to chart/ read a chart. Her ability to explain clearly and slowly so that I can follow without losing interest is perfect for me.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad it worked well for you :)
Thank you so much
I would. Love my unwinding to go that smoothly
as someone suggested somewhere in the comments, try putting your hands inside the loop and "snapping" it a few times before winding, that might help loosen any tangles.
soo helpful thanks soo much have a blessed day sis
you too :)
Very clear, thx😅
