I think this is a huge help for beginners, and I've made it a habit.

I think a big mistake many make is where you make your first stitch after your chain. Some pattern say chain counts as 1st stitch and others say it doesn't count. Placement where to insert hook at beginning of row can be confusing. A visual would be helpful.

Thank you, I hate, hate, HATE. Counting. My brain cannot remember if I said 24 or 34 and then I spend 20 minutes counting so I’ll 100% be using this tip from now on especially in my blankets

BRILLIANT!!! I’ve dabbled in crocheting for 30+ years but it’s always wonky. I’m so grateful for you & this information!!! Thank you!!!

Thank you! I didn't know why my blanket was weird shaped 😂

My first blanket was a hot mess! Gave it to my daughter to use for my grandson only in the car 🚗 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’ll be doing this from now on. Thank you!

This was so helpful!! Thank you very much

This was such a big help!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to share this with the world of crocheters!!!! Xoxo

Stitch markers are such a help for beginners like me. I use a small safety pin.

Son of a gun. I'm was working on and 250 stitch piece and i noticed my mess up. Restarting on the 200 piece now. I'm on row 3 and learning this is a relief 😳

Gosh, THANK YOU!!!

I’m just getting “reacquainted “ with crochet after many years. I love your videos. You’ve already helped me gain confidence.

I needed this so much!!! I’ve been working on an Afghan for my grandson for over a month and I keep pulling out my work because my edges aren’t lining up. This is going to fix my problem!!

I love the technical side of fiber arts.

Thank you. This has been so helpful for a beginner like me. I was messing up the count of stitches and got confused where to hook for the last stitch of the row that i was undoing the whole thing and starting again 😭.

This is so helpful!!!! Thank you!!!!!❤❤❤❤

Thanks! I wasn’t sure exactly what stitch to mark, before or after the chain three 😅 now I know! I always struggle with losing my end stitch.

Helpful video!

thank you thank you thank you!!!

You are literally a life saverrrr 🥹🥹🥹

So helpful. Thank you! ❤

Ahhhhh great idea. 💡 thank you again

thankyou ❤ very helpful

Helpful but you could also use Bobby bins

Thanks for this. I'd dnf after 2 rows if i had to count them

Great explanation! I’m about to tackle a bedspread and I’m super nervous, because I want the edges to be perfect!

This is a life saver!! Thanks!!

This is super helpful! thanks for sharing 🎉💕

Thank you very much. This helped a lot.

Sooooo important! Thanks!

I love your website. So easy to navigate. I'm a new subscriber. 🙂

Thank you so much ❤

As a beginner I never understood what a turning chain was because no one explained it so that would probably help some people out lol

thank you for this! but how about circle ones??

My crochet looks like it's increasing but has the same amount of stitches as the first row

Crochet that pattern larger and sew in a silky thin inner lining and you have a summer dress for a living baby girl or woman or lady instead of a doll

I know this is from a while ago But could you show how you would do this for different kinds of stitches? Like single, half double, triple, herringbone half crochet? 😅

My cheap self uses paper clips as a stitch markers 😅

I quit learning I can’t even do the first part

Slows it down a bit but works

Thank you I made this mistake not long ago

I'm trying to make a simple hat using half double crochet and my sides are very uneven, if I use stitch markers, where, exactly, would I place them. Thank you

Where was this video tip last week!?!? Lol. 😂😂😂😂

Is there any way to fix this issue after it’s already happened? I’ve been working on a piece and have realized way too late and that I slowly put too many stitches in and went from 76 on the bottom to 82 on the top. I realized I first messed up about halfway through and it would take a LONG time to have to redo all of that. Is there a way to cut stitches out and still make it work?

Where do u put the marker for a single crochet

I think the mistake most beginners do is not the placement of the last stitch but the rather the first stitch after the chain

Are stitch markers needed? I don’t have any.

Please someone tell me. Is this method also applicable for hapf double crochet?

which video are you referencing?

Hi Sigoni

What if I don't have markers?

Do you skip the first stitch when you turn the project.

What type of yarn are you using? I used 100% acrylic but it kind of like gets messy so it’s hard to see the crochet

Can't lie I thought stitch markers were to hold the space so I could use my hook for another project 🤣

I am a beginner but don’t know how to turn

This has made me more confused 😅

When you have 176 chains and 80 chains that is just ridiculous count all of those chains there’s got to be an easier way

What the heck? We need a slow version of this😂
