Thank you, Bonnie for sharing your pattern!! That's a beautiful blanket!! ❤
Nice clear directions! I see a rectangle in my near future. Thanks!
I have never done a granny rectangle. You explained it perfectly. Thank you so much 😊
Beautiful blanket and you were very easy to follow. Im not a beginner but the only thing i knew how to do was granny squares and they werent perfect. I just started to pick up crochet again after several years so im trying new things and this was one. And again thanks for being a great teacher and taking the time and patient to go slow.
Thank you Bonnie, I will be making this for my great grandson ♥️♥️
I love how you show your beautiful work at the end of your videos. Thank you
Such beautiful colors of yarn that are so complimentary and it looks incredibly soft! 💕💕💕
I am new and looked at many videos before finding yours. Thank you ❤
Welcome to my channel Linda! If you are looking for something specific, please feel free to try the search on my home page. I have hundreds of videos!
Excellent instruction - I've done the rectangle before, but couldn't remember how to start. No, I did not snooze through any of your tutorial, and yes, I have "hooked" right past a corner many times, so keep on reminding all of us!
I love your tutorials and have made some of your projects. You are very clear and concise, which makes it easy to follow along. Thank you very much, Bonnie!
Love this pattern and the yarn colors! Thank you
Thank you so very much for this beautiful pattern and easy tutorial.
Beautiful!! Love the colors you used
I've never done a rectangle granny. You explain it better than anyone. Now I just have to decide on colors. Thank you so much 😊
Great tutorial, never did a rectangle, on my list now😉

I decided what to crochet Rectangular granny blanket
Thanks for the tutorial
I stopped crocheting now I am back doing more projects
Bonnie, I just love the variation on the regular square granny by crocheting a rectangular one! You are a hellava great crocheter & teacher! I could sit by my laptop & watch you for hours, and you are never redundant ! As many times as I may watch a particular video I always pick up on something that I didn't notice the time before! I wish we lived near each other I would love to have you over for coffee and in an Italian household when you have coffee there is always plenty of cake to go with it!! You are a terrific teacher , God bless you & your family for sharing your knowledge & beautiful self with all of us , you are such a beautiful person both inside & outside ! Cant wait to get notice of your next video to add to my Bonnie Bay collection! :)
Donna Pezzano thank you for your extremely kind words! If you are ever in Gaithersburg, MD or at a conference, let’s get that coffee and cake ( although I may have a Diet Coke instead😊, never acquired the taste for coffee unfortunately). Many blessings to you!
Love this tutorial better
New subscriber! Thank you!💜
Do you have the written pattern? I do better with written instructions. Thank you!💜
@@linnyhajnalka4393 Welcome to my channel! I am working on getting this uploaded to my Ravelry Page, but just haven't been able to yet. I hope to get this done soon.
So clear thank you. Wish I could hold yarn in left hand. Have tried but can't get to grips with it. I hold everything in right hand
I LOVE THIS PATTERN, BONNIE! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a rectangular granny.......I’m making lapghans for nursing home/COVID and recovering COVID pts, with large print scripture cards tucked in!
I’ve never used this type of yarn in my 45+ years of crocheting! (How boring I am! Lol lol lol!😅😂🤣😇) I once purchased “enough yarn” (you know how 5hat goes, ya always get 1-2 more skeins of the same lot number 🙄) needless to say, I spent too much money, but that wouldn’t have bothered me since it was for a gift..........IF I COULD HAVE ACTUALLY CROCHETED WITH THAT YARN!!!! 🤭😱 It was the very “fuzzy/furry” yarn, super soft, perfect for this brandy-new baby blanket I thought I was making. SOOO..... I could NOT find my stitches in between the “furry fuzz”! I became so frustrated, I gave the entire bag of yarn away (complete with warning label 😅😂) so I’m a bit wary of anything thicker etc.
I know I don’t have to use this yarn, but it just looks SOOOOOO soft and comfy, and it doesn’t seem to split at all. So, come payday, I, going to get a few skeins and go for it......with Jesus at my side, of course! 🕊❤️🙏🙋♀️ THANK YOU AGAIN, GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR WORK/MINISTRY, IN JESUS’S WONDERFUL NAME, AMEN. 🕊❤️🙋♀️😘🙏🌹
Thank you Deborah! Always feel free to use whatever yarn you have available. I did enjoy using this soft yarn and it does work up very quickly!
I know this video was made 2yrs ago, but I'm hoping you can still give a count for starting chain. In case we want to make it shorter or longer. I love how well you explain everything. Thank you.
You can make the starting chain any size you wish. It will change the ratio of the sides though.
I have got to tell you I have been hurting for you I lost my inf for this blanket I got a new phone and for some reason this did not move over like it should have your my life thank you thank you
Welcome back to my channel Maxine!😊❤️
Please do the diamond berry stitch for us thxs
I love it ! Finally I got it ! But I still have a little issue with the corners . 3 single stitches when you close the round right? Thank you very much. Love the explanations
The corners are all (3 double crochet, chain 2, 3 double crochet) in the chain 2 corner.
Great tutorial. You explained it well although you do go fast for a beginner who’s trying to follow along. The double crochet part is easy enough but maybe show us in slow motion when you are turning corners or doing something different other than the regular Stitch. I am going to try this very same pattern tonight!
You can adjust the video playback speed in the upper right corner icon.
Awesome blanket. Can you show a blanket done in an oval shape?
I can certainly add your suggest to my growing list Wanda!
I really like the fact that this blanket is a rectangle and not a square. BTW did you make the top that you are wearing ? It is really pretty.
Thanks Connie. Yes, I hope to have a pattern for this top soon.
If I decided not to do a color change, would I just continue around each corner until complete?
Michelle Shorter that’s correct! Those color changing yarns would be a good option for this design too!
Bonnie can you use 4 ply yarn instead..
It's beautiful! I can't wait to try this pattern. The pink yarn you're using looks like yummy raspberries. God bless you and thank you! 😁
Thank you Amanda! Yes, I really did enjoy this super soft yarn and the color changes make it even more fun!
LOVE your top your wearing . is that one of your patterns?
Yes Donna, but I haven't published it yet. I hope to get that done sometime this summer.
Can I still use this patterning my yarn is one color(ombre) so when you first tie off, would I just keep going, repeating the DC 3 pattern?
Absolutely Cindy! It will be so much easier with an ombre yarn. No need to tie off yarn and hide loose ends!
@@BonnieBayCrochet ty. Love your videos
How does the chain number affect the size of the granny rectangle? I have seen charts with both even and odd chain numbers...crib 13, twin 58, double 31, king 49. I did a 5 round swatch with your 32 chains. I am going to teach grandkids. One will want a doll granny rectangle...would appreciate some clarification on chains. Thanks Bonnie
Very nice! I will be making this. BTW, Love your top. Do your have a pattern or a tutorial?
Hi Sylvia! I don't have a tutorial or pattern written just yet. When I do I will be posting to my channel here. Thanks for the little push to get this in the works.
@@BonnieBayCrochet great! Will be looking for it when it’s available!
Bonnie, as usual, you’ve delivered! BUT, I’m more interested in the beautiful sleeveless sweater you were wearing - is there a pattern? Kindly let me know. I would appreciate it a lot. Thanks much. And may the Almighty God continue to shower you with blessings in abundance.
Thank you so very much for your blessing Regina! I'm working on the written pattern and hope to have it available sometime this summer.
@@BonnieBayCrochet I KNEW THAT YOU HAD TO OF MADE IT 😊💝! IT IS BEAUTIFUL & I HAD JUST POSTED THAT IN MY COMMENT, LOL 😂💝!!!
Hi. Can you tell me which yarn I can use which will be comparable to the yarn used in your video? I can’t find the yarn you are using. I’d love to try this! Thanks.
Any #4 or worsted weight yarn or even a #5 will work. Lots of options on this design.😊
The top you are wearing is very pretty, did you crochet it?
Armanda Lebron yes, this is a new design. I hope to finish writing the pattern soon!
Hello I like the way you show and explain.But my blanket is not going straight .Please Can you explain what should I do ?
You can always send photos of the problem areas to me at bonniebay@me.com and I can take a look.
Bonnie I really would want to do that, why don't you consider a vacation here sometime
I'll actually be heading to SC to care for my mother-in-law in a couple of weeks. Would love to visit your country! I never had the time or money to even take a cruise when living in Florida. Maybe it is time?
I have plans to make this in blues for my teenage son. He is autistic and likes to put his toes through the large spaces of his afghans. I made a different design for him when he was 7. It finally had such a huge hole, I had to toss it. My question is, could I do an extended double crochet down to the chain below the current row, instead of a chain one, between clusters to fill in the spaces?
Hi Bonnie. Need this info!
May 20, 2021
Watched again, because my niece iscexpect8ng her sixth baby ( one set of twins).. and I thunk thus will make a nice, warm blanket for the car. But, I might use accuse 4 yarn...
I think any weight yarn will work with this Sandy. Congratulations on another baby in the family!❤️❤️🤪
Mine is bowing out like crazy and the corners aren't straight. How do I keep everything lying flat and straight
Can you use a 4 worsted weight on this blanket?
Sure, just be sure to match your hook size to your yarn choice.
Bonnie, do you ever do this like the easy granny square where you add the extra cluster so you can just continue on without having to connect each row?
Yes, I have that design right here on my home page: ruclips.net/video/T-2865y_diI/видео.html
So you have done that with the rectangle as well?
Do you make a solid granny square? I thought you did, but I couldn't find it. Also, a lady at the church is always cold, so I thought I would make her a covering. Like a shall, but not with a point. Do you have any idea on a measurement? Have a Wonderful & Blessed Day!
I have a continuous (square) Granny Square Baby Blanket here: video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?fr=yhs-iry-fullyhosted_011&hsimp=yhs-fullyhosted_011&hspart=iry&p=granny+square+baby+blanket+bonnie+barker#id=1&vid=8c45c9fc9d607049b36c5e92407b0183&action=click
You can make either of these to the size you desire.
Hi. Do we chain 32 no matter how big we want the blanket to be ?
Yes, if you wish this rectangular shape. You can make this as large or as small as you wish.
