    Looking for a stitch

    I am making an afghan composed of 16 squares. Is there a good stitch for joining them together?

    Different stitches will produce different results. You can slip stitch, single crochet or use a large eye needle and sew it together. It depends on how you want it to look.

    I just down loaded one from RedHeart And looks real simple. The end loop is joined and the one in the center is joined This is done as you are crocheting the last row. The number for this afghan and the directions is LW3314 I saw it at Ravelry but couldn't get the directions to put it together. Micheal Selick also has a video out that shows it real well. I was going to make my blocks different but the more I looked at his , I liked them better. He makes his with verigated yarn. I am looking for some of the colored yarns that aren't as costly as his.

    thanks for the ideas. I've done slip stitch and needle and find the results often less than satisfying. Maybe I'll give single crochet a try.
