Joining
Notes before joining
We’ll use slip stitch and make sure it’s a little bet loose.
When we’ve two loops int’s better to use the inner loops for joining.
When joining edges make sure they’re not from the same rectangular.
We’ll joining with slip stitch continuously from beginning to end.
Joining steps
After crocheting the 2nd rectangular make ch 1 and turn. (Pic 1)
Place the rectangles as shown in the pic making sure the working piece is the one near you. (Pic 1)
Start joining by slip stitching loosely using one loop of each edge. (Pic 2 – 3)
After finishing first edge, ch 1, and complete with the next edge. (Pic 4)
Make sure to make a ch 1 after each edge.
Repeat same steps until you reach last edge.
Stuff the cube and complete closing the last edge. (Pic 6)
Do not FO and read the after joining notes.
After joining notes
You’ll realize that the other edges of the cube that we didn’t need to join are less visible and do not have the sharp seam, so I went over it with slip stitch to have the visible edges same as others.
Crochet slip stitch a log the other edges (4 edges). Some times you’ll need to FO and join to complete your stitches.
FO and wave in all ends. Your Dice Cube is done!
