You asked, so here it is! 💚

After my YouTube video on the invisible join for granny squares, so many of you asked the same thing: how do I tie and secure that end so it actually stays put? So I filmed a little follow-up just for that.
This is the neat, secure finish that keeps your invisible join looking seamless - no lumps, no unravelling, no stress.
Want the link to the original full video? Just comment “”invisible”” below and I’ll send it your way.
Save this one for your next granny square project, and let me know in the comments if it helped!

You only need 3 stitches to start embroidery. Here they are. 🧵
If you’ve ever wanted to try embroidery but didn’t know where to begin - this is your starting point.
Swipe through to learn the only three stitches you need as a beginner:
1. Running stitch - the most basic stitch, perfect for outlines and simple patterns.
2. Backstitch - strong, clean lines. Your go-to for lettering and detailed outlines.
3. Satin stitch - fills in shapes smoothly and gives that beautiful, polished finish.
Master these three and you can make almost anything 💚
Save this post so you can come back to it when you’re ready to start!

The WIP-topus is finally here! 🐙

This pattern was inspired by a sticker I designed a while back - and I always knew it deserved to become an embroidery pattern too. Meet a kawaii octopus surrounded by yarn skeins, scissors, and crochet hooks, all densely stitched in bright colours. The octopus itself? Left as bare fabric. That's the magic of negative space embroidery!

This one is basically a love letter to all of us drowning in WIPs 😄
The WIP-topus pattern is available now on my website and on Etsy: https://elendipity.com/shop/

𝘛𝘦𝘢𝘮 𝘺𝘢𝘳𝘯 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘮 𝘺𝘢𝘳𝘯 𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳? 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘰𝘳 𝘸𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨 - 𝘭𝘦𝘵 𝘮𝘦 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘪𝘯 👇

This is one of those things that comes up a lot in crochet, and I want to be upfront about it straight away: neither method is better than the other. They just give different results.

- Yarn OVER - bigger stitch, softer fabric, V-shape. Uses a little more yarn and feels more natural to a lot of beginners.
- Yarn UNDER - smaller stitch, slightly stiffer fabric, X-shape. More compact result and uses slightly less yarn.

I've tried both and honestly? I'm team yarn over - it just feels more natural to me. But I know plenty of makers who swear by yarn under and their work looks absolutely beautiful 💚

The best thing you can do is try both and see which one your hands prefer.

A new lesson has just landed in the Crochet Special Stitches and Techniques course!

Ribbing is that stretchy, textured edging you see on jumpers, hats, and cuffs - and it's one of those techniques that instantly makes your crochet look more polished and professional.
In this new class I cover two methods, so you can pick the one that works best for you.
