How to Join Hexagons simplydaisy 2015-05-02 | Last week I showed you how to crochet a hexagon, so this week I decided to show you how to join the hexagons together. It's a fairly simple pattern, you go around the hexagon normally until you get to the corner where you want to join it with another hexagon. Then while you're attaching it, when ever you would chain in a normal hexagon pattern you slip stitch into the corresponding hole of the other hexagon and continue until you have attached it to the hexagons that you want. Continue all the way around until you are back at the beginning, where you can fasten off and weave in your ends.How to Crochet a Hexagon: youtube.com/watch?v=-YStJ9oD0t0Hook: 5mmMusic: Carefree Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0

How to Arm Knit an Infinity Scarf simplydaisy 2016-04-04 | Hey everyone! Today I'm showing you how to arm knit an infinity scarf! This scarf is my favorite because I could never find an infinity scarf that I really liked, but with this tutorial you can customize the color, width, and length so that it will turn out exactly like you want it to! I also love this pattern because it is one of the quickest and easiest things to make. It only takes me about 20 minutes to make one scarf which is significantly faster than the time it has taken me to attempt to make a scarf by other means (crocheting and normal knitting). It is also quite cheap, as each scarf only costs about $7 to make, compared to $20 scarves sold by many other stores and companies. Each ball of yarn that I used was about $7 and I only used about half of it, so you can make 2 scarves for only $14 (this does depend on the length and width, as wider and longer scarves will use more yarn). I typically make my scarves between 4 and 5 feet and between 7 and 9 stitches wide. Keep in mind that over time the scarf will stretch and increase in length so I would make the scarf slightly shorter than you're preferred length.

How to Join Half Hexagons simplydaisy 2016-02-15 | Open for pattern instructions, project information, updates, and more!Hey everyone! Last week I showed you how to crochet a half hexagon, so this week I'm showing you how to join those half hexagons to other hexagons. By using the instructions in both of these videos you can make a blanket or any other project with hexagons into a square or rectangle that will have a straight edge! If you are a beginner, please leave some common problems that you have in the Comments section so that I can try to make a video that will help address those problems. I most often get questions about projects that curl and stitches being too tight, so I will try to include those in the video. So if there are any other major problems you have and want me to include, please leave a comment :)Here are a few links to other related videos that may help you or give you more information:How to Crochet a Half Hexagon: youtube.com/watch?v=-cAqQvKvRRgHow to Join Hexagons: youtube.com/watch?v=too1MBpZZTQHow to Crochet a Hexagon: youtube.com/watch?v=-YStJ9oD0t0Crochet Terms Key:sl st=slip stitch, ch=chain, sc=single crochet, dc=double crochetFrequently Asked Questions About This Video:How would I join them to make the corner of a blanket? To make the corner, position 2 half hexagons around one hexagon so that their straight edges make a 90 degree angle, then join them.What do I do if I just want to attach one half hexagon to one hexagon? Crochet a border for the hexagon with the color you want to join with. Then use the joining techniques in the video to start joining the half hexagon to one of the hexagon's sides. When you get to the corner of the half hexagon, continue crocheting like a normal row of a half hexagon (you can refer to the how to crochet a half hexagon video for more information). Continue until you reach the edge of the half hexagon and then single crochet along that edge, sl st, ch 1, fasten off and weave in ends.Crochet hook: 5mmPattern:Make a half hexagon and as many other hexagons as you like (you can refer to my other videos about this if you do not know how to make either of them). Make sure that they have the same number of rows (ex: 3 rows in the hexagons and 3 rows in the half hexagons)Using a half hexagon, attach at the top portion of the first double crochet. Ch 3, sl st into the corner hole of a hexagon. 1 dc into same space where you attached in the half hexagon. *Sl st into next hole of the hexagon, 2 dc into next hole of half hexagon* Repeat the instructions in between ** until you reach the corner of the half hexagon. Into the corner hole of the half hexagon, 2 dc, sl st into the corner of hexagon and if attaching to multiple hexagons, insert into both hexagons and then sl st. 2 dc into corner of half hexagon. *Sl st into next hole of hexagon, 2 dc into next hole of half hexagon* Repeat directions in between ** until you reach the corner. Repeat instructions for the corner and continue the same joining technique until you reach the end. Sc across the length of the half hexagon until you reach the starting point. Sl st, ch 1, fasten off and weave in ends.Music:Carefree Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0

Crochet Sunflower Tutorial simplydaisy 2016-01-11 | Hey everyone and welcome to my channel simplydaisy! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR OVER 5,000 SUBSCRIBERS! Sorry that there's no intro or outro to this video, I didn't want to make it any longer than it needs to be. This video is pretty long because there are multiple parts to the pattern and I wanted to be as thorough as possible for all of the beginners watching that want to make it. If you're more advanced, I would recommend speeding it up by using the gear icon in the bottom right hand corner if you're using a computer. Then the video will be faster, which will better fit your pace of crocheting. Project Ideas: So this sunflower is one of my favorite patterns! I've found some other sunflower patterns, but this is by far my favorite because of the two layers of petals that make it look really cool. And to use this awesome pattern, you can sew it on practically anything you want: blankets, hats, etc. One thing that I'm going to make is a large green blanket and then sew the sunflowers on it, which I think will look really cool. Please let me know if you'd like to see a video on the blanket pattern that I'm using. You could also sew it onto granny squares or hexagons and then join them together.How to Join Granny Squares: youtube.com/watch?v=9cyLYv7gKJMHow to Join Hexagons: youtube.com/watch?v=too1MBpZZTQMusic:Carefree Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0

Simple Blanket Pattern for Beginners simplydaisy 2015-08-28 | Hey everyone! Thank you so much for 600 subscribers! Also, sorry for the delay on this video. I recently adopted a dog, so a large portion of my time has been spent taking care of him and getting him adjusted to my house. Anyways, today I'm showing you how to crochet a simple blanket that is great for beginners starting out with crocheting. It mainly uses the chain and double crochet, as well as the slip stitch. With this pattern you can use as many accent colors as you want in any pattern to create your own unique blanket.

It's a great pattern with lots of versatility!Also, feel free to leave any comments or questions you have in the comments section below!Pattern:Pick a width of chains that you want for your project, then add 3- this is the base chain.Chain that amount- I chained 18 for my sample.Row 1: 1 dc in 4th chain from hook. 1 dc in each chain all the way across.Row 2: Flip over work. Ch 3. 1 dc in 2nd dc from hook. 1 dc in each dc across.Repeat Row 2 until you have the desired length of your project.*Crochet a chain that is the width of your project- base chain minus 3. Slip stitch to 1st dc of 1st row. Ch 1 and cut. Put the string at the end of the chain into the opening of your sewing needle. Weave it under and over the chains in the row.* Repeat directions in between ** with different accent colors.
