    Thank you. I have wanted to add lining to my crochet blankets, for years. But I couldn't figure it out. I tried explaining what I wanted to someone who quilts. She told me i couldn't do that for my crochet blankets. So I gave up on it. Then I typed it in to RUclips and you came up! Thank you. Thank you.

    This tutorial has helped me a lot, Melanie, even though I don’t have a sewing machine, it’s perfectly clear and not that much sewing, after all. I always worry about little fingers getting trapped in my baby blankets! I have lined one or two with fleece in the past, but my multi-talented crafty witch of a sister will always do any difficult bits for me. I shall be very proud to be able to show her one I’ve done all by myself! Thank you!

    I have been really struggling to figure out how to back an enormous crochet project and this worked PERFECTLY! Didn't have to be perfect and was SO easy. I saw some people mentioning corners: I just added extra stiches until I was straight on the next edge. My project was double crochets, so I 3-4 per corner.

I just finished crocheting a color block blanket learned from your tutorial. Sorry, I only meant is there an alternative to the seam part, where you used the machine. I didn't hear any mention of glue but I will definitely give that a try! What glue do you recommend? Just fabric glue? Thank you, Mrs. Ham! I love all your videos!

    Hello! I'm using your tutorial to line a crocheted shawl. My sister, a quilter, thinks I need to put in a couple of knotted stitches in the middle of the shawl to keep the fabric more in place. I'm thinking the yarn has a lot more stretch to it than the fabric, so I'm not sure this would be such a good idea. What do you recommend?

      If you are nervous, I would continue with the single crochet stitch all the way around a few more times. You can follow the same steps as I show, but you will need to add 3 sc stitches in the corners ;)

    I'm so struggling with mine. Only because I bought the unicorn utopia crochet pattern and there are puff unicorn circle heads and I can't seem yo get it to stretch right to be even for the unicorn fabric I bought. I could had tied in all the ends but ilof course I did the whole pattern not in order the way it was suppose to be done. I also used 2 way off yarn thicknesses for the rainbows which caused parts to not lay flat. I have to give this as a gift tomorrow and. Kt sure what I'm going to do. Seem how the back looks like crap unless I putt something over the back.

    @rosewind52 6 лет назад +4

    As others have mentioned, no sewing machine is listed in the title. Then you go and use a sewing machine HOW do you hand-sew this, what stitches do you recommend? Running stitch that will be removed once the crochet edging is in place?? Not all of us have a sewing machine, so suggestions would be much appreciated.
