We are making this with a size 9 hook and so far so good! No idea how big it'll be by the time I decide it's baby blanket size...
That sounds wonderful! Using a size 9 hook should give your project a nice texture and drape. As for the size, it's always a bit of a surprise until you finish and measure. But a common size for a baby blanket is 90 by 90 cm.
Love this ! Making a kitchen tablecloth with this pattern. White and red ill be using doing thread! Thank you for the pattern,love your channel!!❤❤
That sounds like a wonderful project! 🥰 A white and red color scheme for a kitchen tablecloth is a classic and cheerful choice. I'm so glad you love the pattern and find the channel enjoyable.

Thank you for this perfect toturial. Could you suggest me the best yarn thikness and needle size for this baby blanket? :)
You're welcome! For a baby blanket, you'll want a soft and cozy yarn that's also easy to care for. A light or medium-weight (worsted) yarn is a good choice, such as a yarn labeled as "baby yarn" As for needle size, it depends on the yarn and your personal tension, but typically a US size 7 or 8 (4.5mm-5mm) needle works well with worsted weight yarn. Happy crocheting on your blanket project! 😊👶🧶
This is amazing!
Thank you very much. How sweet of you😊❤🌺
So beautiful! After round 6, to continue, do I just keep doing row 5 and 6 until blank is size I like?
yes, exactly.
Yes, exactly! After completing round 6, you can continue repeating rounds 5 and 6 until your blanket reaches the size you desire. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask. Happy crocheting, and enjoy creating your blanket! 😊🧶
I’ve been making a baby blanket with this pattern, it started to bunch up on the ends around row 7 or 8 and I’m not to sure if it’s a trust the process type of thing or if I’ve done something wrong, but it’s like with more rows I add it starts getting very ruffled
It sounds like you might be experiencing tension issues or unintentional increases in your baby blanket. Here are some common reasons for a project to bunch up or become ruffled, particularly towards the ends:
Tension Consistency: Ensure that you maintain a consistent tension throughout your work. If the tension is tighter or looser in certain sections, it can lead to uneven edges.
Stitch Count: Double-check your stitch count in each row. Make sure you are following the pattern correctly and not accidentally adding or skipping stitches, especially at the ends.
Blocking: Once your baby blanket is finished, you might consider blocking it. Blocking involves wetting the project and shaping it to the correct dimensions. This can help even out stitches and eliminate any unwanted bunching or ruffling.
Hook Size: If you notice that your project is getting ruffled, it might be worth checking if you're using the recommended hook size for the yarn and pattern. Using a larger or smaller hook than suggested can affect the drape and tension of your work.
Increasing Correctly: If the pattern involves increases, make sure you're placing them in the designated spaces and not inadvertently adding extra stitches.
I hope that you find the solution to the problem. Happy crocheting! 🧶
Hi. Why does it curl the bigger you go? Love the pattern
I'm glad you love the pattern! 🥰 Curling in crochet projects, especially when working in the round, can be a common issue. It's often caused by the tension and stitch combination you're using. Here are a few tips to help reduce or eliminate the curling:
Tension: Make sure your tension is consistent throughout your project. If your stitches are too tight, it can cause the work to curl. Try to maintain a relaxed and even tension.
Blocking: After completing your project, blocking can help relax the fibers and shape the piece. Wet blocking involves dampening your work and then pinning it into shape, allowing it to dry in the desired form.
Hook Size: Experimenting with a larger hook size may also help. A larger hook can create looser stitches, reducing the tendency to curl.
I hope the advice really helps. Happy crocheting! 🧶😊
Beautiful pattern, if I wanted to change colours, where would I join in the new colour please?😊
Hi thank you very much for your kind words. To change color I would attach the new yarn to one of the SC in between the shells. Good luck with your project😊❤
Do you have this pattern written out? It’s adorable! 😊
Thank you so much for your compliment, I really appreciate it! However, I'm sorry to say that I don't have the pattern written out for this particular design. I apologize for any inconvenience.😊 If you have any other questions or need help with anything else, feel free to ask!😊❤
What wool did you use? I started it with DK but it was too 'woolly'. I changed to cotton and that didn't look right either. Love the blanket.
Hi I used Drops Merino Extra Fine. DK Light worsted Weight yarn. This yarn is easy to work with and has a nice smooth surface so the stitches are clearly defined.
Hello, this is my first crochet project for over ten years and it is now almost ready. And the little baby is born. I’m wondering if you could recommend a border for this blanket? Many thanks.
Hello!🥰 Congratulations on completing your blanket project and on the arrival of the little one! How exciting! This baby blanket pattern naturally forms a beautiful seashell pattern at the edges, so I will therefore just leave it as it is.
Feel free to experiment with different stitches and colors to see what complements your blanket design best. Ultimately, the choice is yours, and I'm sure it will turn out beautifully! Happy crocheting! 😊
Thank you for your speedy response. It’s all finished now and it’s so pretty, such a delicate pattern.
Could I use a magic loop when starting out instead of working around the chain?
Yes absolutely you could. It is much faster. But many beginners find it hard to make the magic ring😊
I had just finished watching a tutorial in UK terms before i found yours. I wrote the directions down so i could work on a project but like your better. So much better not havong to concentrate on terms and you explained it better too. Thank-you . Stay safe. 🙏🏻💐💖🧶😊💖💐🧶🙏🏻🧶
Thank You so much for your comment🥰 I'm delighted to hear that you found the tutorial helpful and prefer the approach in US terms. Your kind words are greatly appreciated! If you ever have any questions, feel free to reach out. Stay safe and happy crafting! 🌟🧶💖😊
How would you sow these together to make a blanket?
To make a blanket you will just continue to make more and more rounds until the blanket is large enough approx 90x90 cm. 😊
Do you have a written pattern for this blanket? I can't sit at my computer & crochet. Love this pattern!
Sorry I do not have a written pattern, but dont worry after a few rounds, I am sure you will remember the proces.
After the 6th row what rows fo I repeat?
What round do you do to make this a bigger blanket???
I've actually never thought about that. My approach has always been to keep crocheting rounds until my blanket is the size I want. for a baby blanket it is approx. 90x90 cm. I don't spend time counting the rounds at all, but just use my measuring tape to measure the blanket as I go.😊
How many of these does it take for a baby blanket.? Also if you use wool doesn’t it have to be washed in cold water?
Hi🥰 This pattern is crocheted in continuos rounds until it has a size of approx. 90 x 90 cm. or whatever you find suitable for a baby blanket. For this purpose, you need approx. use 9-10 skeins of 50 grams. If you use sport weight yarn.
Best of luck with your project😊
@@AdoreCreaCrochet thank you for taking the time to answer
What crochet hook size did you use?
Hi😊 I used a 4.5 mm. hook.
How would I switch colors?
I'm sorry, but I haven't tried that yet with this design. So, unfortunately, I cannot answer that with certainty.
What hook size are you using :-)
I am using a 4.5 mm hook 🙂
What is the best yarn for this pattern??? I have tried a few but the pattern does not show like yours does. Please help.
Hi 😊 I have used both sport weight Merino wool and fingering weight alpaca and wool blend to make baby blankets with this pattern. They both turned out very nice😊
How much yarn is needed for this baby blanket, please?
It really depends on how big you wnat the blanket to be and the thichness of your yarn and gauge etc. I made a baby blanket in sportweight yarn that measure 70x70 cm and used about 350 grams of yarn. Godd luck with your project😊
After the 6th round, how do I continue the pattern?
You will just repeat the 2 previous rounds alternately.
@@AdoreCreaCrochet So repeat 5 and 6?
