Could you share color choices or pictures of your blankets? I want to make the duckpond blanket for an adult female cousin but I prefer different colors.
@@mariaromo3632 I posted photos of this same blanket in other colours on the Ophelia Talks Facebook group page. You can see photos of other members' designs and colours there too.
This baby blanket is absolutely beautiful. I love the colours so much. I would never have dreamt up this combination, and yet it works so well. Another hit!
This is so beautiful. The colors are gorgeous together. I think it would make a beautiful blanket for fall, just add more squares to make it larger. The colors are so warm. Thank you so much for a beautiful blanket Zoe. Thank you for the tutorial Anja. Bless you both. 😊❤
Came across your channel looking for a neutral baby blanket. Your simplicity and design choice of the "Duckpond Blanket" had me immediately ready to start! I also subscribed as you make it easy to follow! Thank you for your giving freely of your crafting crochet techniques!
Hi Anja! I have always loved this pattern and these are colors I would never have put together. Thank you, Zoë! And I know little Emilia will love her baby blanket. 🥰
You simply have the most beautiful way of crocheting, I struction, and projects. Do you have any other color suggestions for the pond blanket? I would love to make it in warm colors: corals, yellows?
Que lindo que está con subtítulos en español!! De todos modos es muy sencillo seguirte con la mirada el patrón del punto!!! Thank you so much!! From Buenos Aires
@@OpheliaTalks is Very easy your work because you have a patient when you teach us..( sorry for my English) I learned at two years ago.. But I don't practice it...
Love this pattern and your instructions are always so clear and concise. Is there a multiple number to increase the size of the squares. Such as 3 plus 1 or something.TIA
Hi Mo, I use Stylecraft Special DK, and also lately I have favoured Wendy Supreme DK, both of which I sell online in my shop, details below videos, thank you, Anja x
love the look of this and am wondering if I wanted to make it as one longer piece as say a table runner etc do I just do more stitches as long as its multiples of 38, Hope that makes sense :) thanks
Such a beautiful blanket! I have been very interested in engineering crochet items and was so excited to see this video. Thank you so much for sharing these awesome techniques🤗💕
l'm sorry l don't know how many, but l suggest you make one and measure it, then you can calculate your required amount, hope this helps Fancie, Anja x
Hi Anya, love this blanket and just started it but I have a question. If I wanted to make the square bigger, say a 6 by 6 instead of a 4 by 4 how many initial chains would I need as I thought the same pattern only bigger squares would make a lovely adult blanket ❤
I love the colours in the duck pond blanket but would like to make another baby blanket, do you have any other colour combinations using five colours ?
My best advice for colour combinations is to look to nature, or pick some balls of yarn out and see which 5 you like together! Thank you Denise, Anja x
Hi wow I love love this blanket, my niece is having a baby and I don’t know the gender , so this blanket would be ideal, how many balls of each colour would I need please
@@OpheliaTalks thank YOU! I’ve been binge watching you lately. You’re very calming, you actually help relax me so I can sleep. I’m very picky with the crochet/knitter videos I watch. You just have a very calming demeanor and your accent is lovely to listen to. I had a question though, how you weave the starbursts in; you don’t knot them or anything but do you ever have issues with strands coming out? My family is very rough on things (and I’m sorta accident prone honestly) and I’m concerned the starbursts will come undone. Any suggestions or advice? Please and Thank you 🌻💛
I would love to make a larger version of this amazing blanket as a cotton summer blanket for myself. What cotton yarn would you suggest in weight, bearing in mind I live in the UK?
My favourite cotton is the King Cole Cottonsoft, it's a DK weight yarn, but it's lovely and soft, feels wonderful to work with and makes a nice material. Anja x
Hello Anja, I would like to crochet this great baby blanket. Can you tell me how many balls of each color I need to buy? Kind regards from Germany Gabrielle
A me piacerebbe fare un pool in cotone/lino con questo punto che adoro. Secondo te è adatto? Magari con le maniche solo a maglia alta … 🤔 Mi piacerebbe avere un tuo parere. Grazie
Is this the same pattern used in your remaking of your grandmothers blanket? It’s one of the easiest squares to make. So many possibilities with colors.
I am busy with my second blanket just in different colours. This is such a beautiful pattern and I love making it. A real eyecatcher.
Thank you so much for showing us this. I am about to start my second one. My first one I made into a runner for the bottom of my bed. 😊
Wonderful! Anja x
I love the artistry of this unique design.
Thank you Anja x
Your so nice! I love how you give blankets away! To me, these stars will never get old!
Lovely muted colours, perfect for a girl or a boy. I so love this pattern. I've made it several times and it's always a winner! Thank you Anja xx

Hi Anja! I have always loved this pattern and these are colors I would never have put together. Thank you, Zoë! And I know little Emilia will love her baby blanket. 🥰
Beautiful! But I do have one question, will the starburst remain in place? Did you secure "bursts" enough so that they won’t move or won’t undo?
I've never had a problem with any that I've made, they wash very well! Anja x
Oh my goodness!!! This is my favorite favorite color palette yet!!!
I love it! The colors are perfect. I want a blanket for myself. Thank you for sharing this beauty.
This is a gorgeous blanket. I just watched the video on your grandma's blanket. This resembles that on a smaller level.
Yes, it does. Thank you for watching Brenda B ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
The colors and the pattern are beautiful. I'm just learning crochet, and I think I can do this, so I'm definitely going to try. It's beautiful.
You can do it! Good luck, Anja x
So adorable! I love the color palette and the filet stitch.
I love this for big babies too.
My CAL pack arrived on Monday.

Loved making this blanket, Thank you Anjar
Lovely blanket and beautiful colourcombination. So cute with the little stars
Love this pattern just finished my 3rd one
Where did you get the pattern?
Wow that’s so lovely 🥰
Well done Anja and Zoe 👏❤️

Thank you, Anja and Zoe. My daughter will love this for Christmas.
Lovely, Stay blessed💕
Thank you Gayathri, Anja x
It is very gorgeous I love it
Just ordered the pack! Love the colors!
I’m so excited to start one
its beautiful..but i wonder about the stars comin out when washed?? lovely pattern
With them been sewn on they shouldn't come out in the wash.
I wondered the same thing. The starting and ending threads aren't tied off so it seems like they would come undone when washed.
Love💕 this block.
I love this pattern. I want to make them 12x12.
You can make them whatever size you wish Dana, enjoy, Anja x
Love this! Thanks for sharing. What’s a good yarn for this project? Thanks

It’s very pretty!!

Beautiful colour 😍combination, how many chains have you taken in the beginning, please reply. I love 💘this,I want to start this blanket.
She made 38 chains 🙂
Thank you so much the yarn arrived thank you for the gift as well god bless danke schon 🙏🦋❤️
Wonderful!
I love this blanket. Can you please tell me the measurement of the square for the tension needed. Thank you
If you make one then measure it, you will be able to work out how many you need for the size of blanket you require Julie, thank you, Anja x
Adorable.
Thank you Creative, Anja x
Such a beautiful blanket! I have been very interested in engineering crochet items and was so excited to see this video. Thank you so much for sharing these awesome techniques🤗💕
I would love this on my king size bed but in different colors! It’s so unique and Vintage. Would you know how many squares I would have to do?
l'm sorry l don't know how many, but l suggest you make one and measure it, then you can calculate your required amount, hope this helps Fancie, Anja x

@@OpheliaTalks thank you 🙏
I love this!!!!! TY so much.
Do you have any advice on similar colours in cottonsoft? Fudge and sage look good but can’t see another green that would be good
Hi, how about Jade, Butterscotch, and maybe Oyster?!!!
Just ideas thrown out there. Anja x

Its a happy and spring like pattern and colours and is so beautiful that I'll have to make my own take on this blanket
Go for it! Thank you for watching Meme Smith ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Hi wow I love love this blanket, my niece is having a baby and I don’t know the gender , so this blanket would be ideal, how many balls of each colour would I need please
Hi Janet, there should be enough balls in one of the packs to make 2 blankets, so 7-8 balls a blanket, hope this helps, Anja x
Love this!
Such pretty colors!!! Yay Zoe!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I adore this!!!

Hello Anja, I would like to crochet this great baby blanket. Can you tell me how many balls of each color I need to buy? Kind regards from Germany Gabrielle
We have the complete yarn pack for it: www.opheliatalkscrochet.com/dk-yarn-packs/stylecraft-neutral-colours
Hello! How many skeins of each color are needed? Thanks!
Thank you!
A me piacerebbe fare un pool in cotone/lino con questo punto che adoro. Secondo te è adatto? Magari con le maniche solo a maglia alta … 🤔
Mi piacerebbe avere un tuo parere. Grazie
Yes Lupa, I think that would be doable, as long as you follow the stitch multiple! Good luck, Anja x
LINDO ♥️♥️
Is this the same pattern used in your remaking of your grandmothers blanket?
It’s one of the easiest squares to make. So many possibilities with colors.
Yes it is! Isn’t it just the best square ever?? So glad you like it! Anja xxx
Sehr schön erklärt
Thank you very much Mariom, I try my best to explain it as simply as l can! Anja x
Wunderschön
Is there a written pattern?
What size yarn and hook size are you using?
They said rec 4 but they use 3.5 hook
She uses a dk (weight 3) yarn and the suggested hook is 4mm but she herself prefers to use the 3.5 mm
Anya, did Zoe line her blanket or did she just leave it with the threads in the back?
No Chris, there is a special way to attach the stars to your blanket so you don't see any threads hanging out. Just watch the video and find out.
