Gauge & Pattern Notes

The puff daisy granny squares measure about 7.5 cm / 2.9 in in diameter.

For more details about joining the yarn after fastening off in the previous row or how to make the puff stitch, click here and scroll down to the handy photo tutorial titled “Joining New Yarn With A Slip Stitch & Joining Granny Squares With The Puff Stitch”.

I also have another tutorial called “The Crochet Slip Stitch Method” that you can scroll down to within this blog post called Crochet Blanket Candy Cane Lane.

UPDATE: Here’s how I change yarn color now, so that there are no tails to weave in between rounds. If you use this method, you might not need to use the slip stitch join. Check out my tutorial How To Change Yarn Color In Crochet With No Tails!

In this No Tails Color Change In Crochet tutorial you will learn exactly how to change color in crochet leaving no yarn tails to weave in at the end between rounds, rows or stripes.
