Chances are you'll be excited to find this simple but incredible way to join pieces together! There's a simple way to tie off the yarn when finished and to keep your projects from not coming apart, and Jess of Make and Do Crew is going to show you in This Tutorial how to join crochet hexagons, granny squares, or other crochet pieces together with a non-bulky, invisible seam the simple way, the way she does it. The happy hexagon blanket looks perfect, don't you think?

Here’s a little secret, I sometimes just use a tapestry needle to weave an end toward another stray piece of yarn and then tie them in a few inconspicuous knots and cut both strands off. It’s totally against the “rules,” but I find that otherwise, my ends come unwoven and I think that looks worse on a blanket than a few knots on the backside. It’s unconventional, but it works for me.

Thanks!
I loved your easy blocking technique, too! Now why didn’t I think of that before?
My laptop won’t let me download things. Is the another I can watch what the join is?
TIA.
This is how I’m joining my hexagons. I go back and forth twice. It’s working nicely!

I have a baby blanket made many years ago by me husband’s grandmother. Yarn ends started to come unstitched when it was laundered. I tucked them back where they belong and carefully secured them with a needle and thread. Hopefully small enough to not be too obvious.
great ideas. I hadn’t thought of doing that for extra measure to keep them from coming out again.
I followed this video to attach two parts of a scarf. Easy to do and nearly invisible.

Thanks ! Currently tackling this..
Wow!
Made this one over 30 years ago. Also did one in triangles and when put together looked like a wagon wheel from frontier days
