i LOVE this pattern! made one for myself, made a second for my mom. then when i was *almost* done w the second one i realized how i could modify the pattern into a semicircle to be more like a shawl instead. i frogged the almost finished blanket and made the semicircle version. zero regrets, its insanely beautiful and i have plans to now make ANOTHER in a semicircle style for myself. even then i know that wont be the last i make this pattern! its too good!
@@TheChemistryTutor so it's worked in rows instead of in the round. Everything is the exactly the same except for the stitch count. You just do half the stitches as written, turn your work, and move on to the next row in your project, round in the written pattern. I did not write my modifications down as it was simple enough for me to do all in my head so my apologies if this wasn't very helpful
@@28pinkdancer thank you that is very helpful!! I just want to make sure I got it right you did the same exact stich work just have the number of stitches?
@@TheChemistryTutor if i remember correctly, yes! its been a little while since i made one so i cant remember exactly. however, i know for sure that if the "set up" rounds are done correctly then the rest will fall into place. so it's not like youll get halfway through the project and realize you need to frog.
Love this I have always stuggled when it comes to reading a pattern so when you put it up on the screen as you are working the stitches it is helping me understand a written pattern as well. Thank you for this.
Not only is this a gorgeous piece, but I could listen to you talk all day. You have such a soothing voice that also has personality. So rare these days. You should consider making a little money by reading for audio books. I'm ordering the yarn and starting this ASAP!
I used the first 11 rounds of yours and adjusted the 12th one to my own pattern resulting in a 11" doily. I made two of these in a multicolor bright yarn for my daughter-in-law as she requested. NOW, I want to get whirled yarn and follow the rest of the steps and make a lap blanket for myself. Thank you. You are a wonderful instructor. These are amazing tutorials.
Beautiful pattern. Years ago, I made a color wheel blanket for my daughter, who is an art teacher. It was definitely a challenge getting it to lay flat. I swore I would never do another circle blanket again, but your pattern is making me want to change my mind.
As long as you use the correct stitch count. It should lay flat. I think she said that you should have 12 flower petals after this tutorial. And the following rows will lay flat.
I want to take a moment to thank you for being here and doing what you do! I have done one lotus blanket for my eldest daughters Birthday and am now working on one for my youngest daughter thanks to your tutorial. You are my absolute favorite by far. Clear instruction and very easy to listen to and follow. I too could listen to you talk all day lol Thank you again and I am looking forward to checking out your other tutorials, but for now to finish this lovely lotus I have started :)
Hi Robin. I love this pattern. I love your voice. You explain everything so well. I love all your videos. I like different and unique patterns for afghans. I am making some afghans for the sick children at my local hospital. You design such beautiful items. I am also making hats for our homeless shelter.
This pattern just gets me in my feels🥰 And my fondness for beautiful yarn cakes works perfectly with this pattern. It’s truly one of my absolute favorite patterns! Yarn 🧶 just makes my heart pitter patter. My fellow 🧶 enthusiasts will understand.
This is a beautiful blanket! I looked at it months ago and thought I couldn't possibly make it. I now have a 3 month old granddaughter born on Christmas Day. She is getting this as the blanket to go with her christening dress. You're making me look like a crochet expert!😉 Your instructions are very easy to follow and I love to hear you say "pop." Your accent is charming. Thank you so much for this pattern and tutorial!😃😉😀
Those blankets and that yarn are all so marvelously gorgeous I cannot stop staring at them! I think I'm gonna have to break down and just buy me some of that yarn already because I get starry eyed every time I see them. :D
Currently working on one of these! I have learned so much from your videos! Thank you so much for sharing your crochet wisdom! This is the first time I'm using a fine yarn without double stranding.
I love this pattern and your videos are so easy to follow and understand. This pattern can be used for several different things not just as a blanket or couch accent. The first 6 rows can be used as gorgeous coasters using cotton yarn. I love the lace look to it and if you make it a bit bigger could make lovely placemats as well to match. So many things with this starting pattern. Lovely, thank you
I just want to let you know how much I enjoy your videos.I have crocheted my whole life I’m 60 so that’s a long time.Anyway I have watched so many and it’s sometimes hard to figure out what there doing.Your the best.
When I was searching for circle blankets, RUclips neglected to show me this stunner...so rude! Very happy the algorithm gods finally decided it was time 😅 I've a niece having her first baby in June/July so this gives me plenty of time to make this beauty 👌🧶😍
Row 7 ~ 27:19 I lost my spot ... 😆 Row 8 ~ 30:56 was the round I was looking for, not 7 ughhhh lol Row 9 ~ 34:00 Row 10 ~ 37:09 Woo hoo!! I actually made it this far!! I am absolutely loving how it's turning out. I don't have the same yarn as the whirl as I can't find it where I live, so I am using single skeins of yarn in the same shades of pinks and then I'll change it to a lemon and then the greens and teal blue colour. 💖 Thank you beautiful Goddess for sharing your wonderful inspirations and tutorial with us all. Much appreciated! 💋💖
I just liked to watch these videos fun because they always seemed so complicated but now that i see how simple it is i wanna try it! thanks for inspiring me! you really are a master (not that i ever doubted you)
Thank you for being so detailed in this pattern. Your knowledge and great instructions have encouraged me to try to make so many projects that I never would have tried.💕
I love your tutorials! You explain things very well and show how to do everything perfectly. I bought my first schjeepes whirl after watching this tutorial n now I’ve made 3 of this lotus blanket 😊 Thank you
I'm less than halfway through, but it's already looking gorgeous! I am amazed at how patiently, efficient and generously you have shared the steps in such great detail. Thank you so much!
Thank you, Robin! You're clear and take your time showing we slower ones to make a beautiful project! I had to frog a few times, but so glad for the lesson! Thank you, again!🌻♥️🙏
I made this using the video tutorial and, as a not very experienced crocheter, I have to say I really enjoyed it. I did it in plain white but I was delighted it. Your tutorials are sooooo easy to follow 👍👍👍
Your blankets are beautiful!💖 I was up for a challenge; so a few night's ago I started on this blanket. Getting ready to start on row 24. TY for taking the time to make this video.
Think I'm going to have to go grab this yarn and come crochet with you. It's so beautiful! Nice to see you use American terms too as I learnt that way and didn't realise it was different. Glad I found your channel, my daughter really doesn't need another, but I know she'll love this xxx
You make it look so easy!! And it was!!!! I tried it on a thick yarn first just to get an understanding of the pattern flow, but with your incredibly clear instructions i have switched to an intended yarn about half way through the video. Thank you so much for doing this!!! Superb skill like yours is so needed! Much much much appreciated!💖🙏🧚♀️
I purchased a Whirl a few years ago (in the same colorway) and have been waiting to find a pattern. Thank you for a perfect project for me:) Have never used such a small size of yarn. Wish me luck! Stunning pattern!!
I just can’t tell you how much I loved this pattern ... my husband ordered the same schpeejes whirl yarn and I received the yarn today . I have straight away started with the project . Kindly wish me good luck !
This is so beautiful a Have ordered the wool , but in the meantime have to finish another blanket first , now am getting orders from friends and family , I just love being finger busy with hooks lol Thank you Robin xx
Wow, what a beautiful blanket. This will definitely be my next project. Thank you for sharing this, your instruction was easy to follow, and your voice was calm 😊. Thank you very much.
What a lovely pattern! I am working on it at the moment and what a pattern it is. After a couple of tutorials on how to increase the rounds, I am counting and marking where I need to increase. Boy, this is a fun pattern.
Beautiful blanket! I'm sure I'll be adding it to my pile of projects I'm currently trying to finish lol. I've perpetually got about 10 things going on, but this is moving ahead of some of the other stuff because I LOVE IT! Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
I just want to say you have inspired me to do one of these!!! It is absolutely beautiful!!! I'm a beginner and you explain it very easily to the point that I'm not afraid to try. Thank you and if you do expand it past the 23 rounds, I hope you do another video :) Thank you!!!!
Thank you so much for this!! I created this with the Jelly Pop Whirl from Snufflebean Yarn with a 4.25mm hook and it came out beautifully! You are a lovely teacher! I am going to actually put it on a stretched canvas as a visual piece to enjoy. Going to start my second one with the Brambleberry Scheepjes Whirl from SnuffleBean Yarn! Thank you so much!
I have some (a lot) of Hobbii Cotton Kings/Sultan in Galaxy Opal, that I've been "saving for the perfect pattern. This is the perfect design. Thank you!
Oh finally a good crochet pattern for a ball of Whirl! And it really only needs one ball for a lap blanket? Wow! Thank you so much for such a beautiful pattern 😘😘😘
I wish I could post a picture. I made this blanket for my Rainbow Baby (baby born after miscarriage or infant loss) in a rainbow yarn. It is so beautiful and we recieve so many compliments. Thank you for the pattern. This blanket will ne cherished for years to come.
I tagged you in a few! Thank you for the patter. I've actually never used a pattern before this, and have been crocheting for more than half of my life! I made two following the video and now I'm learning how to read the pattern for my 3rd! 😍
I remember this being the first tutorial I ever saw of yours. I still have the unfinished project in my closet. Hmmm I wonder if I can still get the same yarn I started with. Highly unlikely. Be right back, lol
I’ve made quite a few round baby blankets,but very lacy and involved.This is a beautiful modern take on the round baby blanket.It’s excellent I love it 😍👏👏💐✌️
This is the most beautiful blanket I’ve ever seen - seriously. I went online to look at the whirl yarn you’ve used... choosing a color right now would be impossible! I have a couple of ponchos to start and finish, but can’t wait to start on a circle blanket - this will probably be the pattern that I use, it’s SO gorgeous.
Thank you so much for such a lovely comment! I agree, choosing a whirl is nearly impossible 😅 They are all SO pretty - I'm hoping someone somewhere has made this blanket using the yellow to grey one! (dandelion I think it's called?)
I love your tutorials. Your voice is so relaxing and a pleasure to listen to. I just ordered two Whirls and can't wait to get started on this gorgeous pattern. Thank you so much for sharing it.
I saw this pattern today and i loved it so much i started 2 of them. i am making one with sparkle yarn and another one using size 3 crochet thread. so far i did the first ten rows on each. i intend to make some for THE ANGEL BLANKET ORG. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS PATTERN.
I love this pattern. I think it would make a great shawl just folded in half. I love your terminology ... pop a stitch and row below. Your voice is soothing and whilst I am crocheting a granny square baby blanket I am watching your vids. I can't wait to watch the second part of this Lotus Flower Blanket. When I am finished with a a few of the projects I am working on ... I think I have six at the moment ... I am going to purchase one of those gradient yarn cakes. I have been eyeing them for quite a while but I am a solid yarn kinda gal and gradient seems a bit out of control for me but I shall try at least once. I am thinking also that this pattern would be gorgeous in a finer weight yarn like sock weight. It would take forever to finish but how beautiful your intricate pattern would be.
Your blanket is beautiful. One thing I have been doing this summer is making mandalas and I find that mandala patterns are a great way to make a circle blanket because the counting of stitches is symmetrical and very easy to follow.
This blanket is gorgeous! I was looking through their color selection and thought that if you could use this color yarn to make a beautiful lotus look that the dark grape squish yarn worked from the inside out would make a cool amethyst geode look.
I've not long started to teach myself to crochet but once I'm a bit more competant I'll definitely be giving this a try! Thank you for sharing this amazing project
Ok. I've watched a few times. Hopefully took accurate notes. I'm ready to begin just these first 10 rounds before I watch the next section. I'm so excited ❤ ❤
I am sure you did Marsha.😀 I have the full written pattern on my blog for free too if that helps? www.hookedbyrobin.com/blog/2018/02/lotus-flower-blanket-free-crochet.html
Lovely pattern. I am just starting a blanket today. wish i could get the whirl here in Canada..but, I'm making it in the Mandala Troll color. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! :)
Trying my hand at this. I am actually using a different yarn from the one in your pattern (shimmer nights by Lion Brand). I have had this yarn for over a year which I bought for a project but changed my mind about doing. Shall upload a photo for you when completed.
Absolutely gorgeous piece and lovely tutorial! I WISH those swirl yarns were available at any kind of reasonable price here in California ($32 a skein!), but I’m going to try with a Bernat Pop! or a Caron Cake. Absolutely love this, and your voice and manner are so soothing and gentle. Thank you!
Thanks so much for the pattern,I made it and it looks beautiful 😍 it's easy and fast to do 🤩❤️ I couldn't sent a picture but believe me it looks magnificent ❤
If you didn’t have the blue on the outside and you put some black sequins throughout the pink it could be a really cool watermelon pattern! I think I might try this for a nice summer blanket for my hammock. Nice pattern!
Dear Robin! Words cannot describe my feelings and emotions about your creation, but I have to at least try.😂 I have completed 3 blankets and 2 tablecloths using this pattern and i still don't get tired of it! It is perfect in every way: geometrically, esthetically and energetically!😍 just magical!🧚♀️😻 i thought your hexagon puff stitch was brilliant, but this, THIS is just Masterpiece! So, i just wanted to express my deepest gratitude.🙏💖🤗💃🧚♀️😻 just magical!
Okay people! I wanted to try this blanket and so I got the yarn that she recommends for it. To me it's more like string then yarn. It is sooooo thin! It's 60% cotton and 40% acrylic. But the colors are stunning. I got 5 skeins of them, in different colors of course. I ordered it from the site Robin stated and it came pretty quickly. No issues. Wish me luck! I will let you know how it turns out!
As a newbie I appreciate how detailed and organied your tutorials are. And I must say that you have the most lovely color sensibility. Thank you.

That is absolutely beautiful!!! I definitely need to make it. I have so many projects on the go, it's ridiculous.
Beautiful work and I really enjoy your speaking voice, so it's a double pleasure.
Thank you! 😃
This has been on my to do list for ages and I’ve just ordered 3 whirls from Hobbii to make myself a massive blanket 😍
I've just received my order from them. I have 2 lots just on case.... 😉
I love this pattern. I think it would make a great shawl just folded in half. I love your terminology ... pop a stitch and row below. Your voice is soothing and whilst I am crocheting a granny square baby blanket I am watching your vids. I can't wait to watch the second part of this Lotus Flower Blanket. When I am finished with a a few of the projects I am working on ... I think I have six at the moment ... I am going to purchase one of those gradient yarn cakes. I have been eyeing them for quite a while but I am a solid yarn kinda gal and gradient seems a bit out of control for me but I shall try at least once. I am thinking also that this pattern would be gorgeous in a finer weight yarn like sock weight. It would take forever to finish but how beautiful your intricate pattern would be.
I've seen a couple of these blankets made in solid colour yarns and they look beautiful as a single colour too!

Your blanket is beautiful. One thing I have been doing this summer is making mandalas and I find that mandala patterns are a great way to make a circle blanket because the counting of stitches is symmetrical and very easy to follow.
Thank you Barb and lovely idea on the mandalas.😃🥰
This blanket is gorgeous! I was looking through their color selection and thought that if you could use this color yarn to make a beautiful lotus look that the dark grape squish yarn worked from the inside out would make a cool amethyst geode look.
They have the MOST amazing colour selections - have you seen the yellow to grey one? Stunning!
Hooked by Robin yes! So much to be inspired by want to order some and try your pattern out. Thank you for the tutorial.
I loved the gradiant! It’s gorgeous! Such a beautiful concept!
The yarn does all the talking! Such pretty long soft gradients 😍
I love this pattern I’m doing first attempt of this blanket in King Cole curiosity yarn it is looking good so far
I've not long started to teach myself to crochet but once I'm a bit more competant I'll definitely be giving this a try! Thank you for sharing this amazing project
Ok. I've watched a few times. Hopefully took accurate notes. I'm ready to begin just these first 10 rounds before I watch the next section. I'm so excited ❤ ❤
I am sure you did Marsha.😀 I have the full written pattern on my blog for free too if that helps? www.hookedbyrobin.com/blog/2018/02/lotus-flower-blanket-free-crochet.html
Lovely pattern. I am just starting a blanket today. wish i could get the whirl here in Canada..but, I'm making it in the Mandala Troll color. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! :)
I bought this yarn just to make this blanket. It's my next project. Beautiful.
Thank you so much for this! I ordered the whirl and the moment it arrives I will be starting this baby. Beautiful work. 💖
Robin you are so good and patient you truly are a great instructor 🧶😘
I believe this will be my next project after I get finished completing the two blankets I am currently working on.
The yarn is very fine , I really need to concentrate to do the stitches but it’s beautiful 😍
Trying my hand at this. I am actually using a different yarn from the one in your pattern (shimmer nights by Lion Brand). I have had this yarn for over a year which I bought for a project but changed my mind about doing. Shall upload a photo for you when completed.
Absolutely gorgeous piece and lovely tutorial! I WISH those swirl yarns were available at any kind of reasonable price here in California ($32 a skein!), but I’m going to try with a Bernat Pop! or a Caron Cake. Absolutely love this, and your voice and manner are so soothing and gentle. Thank you!
Thanks so much for the pattern,I made it and it looks beautiful 😍 it's easy and fast to do 🤩❤️ I couldn't sent a picture but believe me it looks magnificent ❤
You are so welcome!🥰
I did this pattern and love , love , love this pattern!
If you didn’t have the blue on the outside and you put some black sequins throughout the pink it could be a really cool watermelon pattern! I think I might try this for a nice summer blanket for my hammock. Nice pattern!
Dear Robin!
Words cannot describe my feelings and emotions about your creation, but I have to at least try.😂 I have completed 3 blankets and 2 tablecloths using this pattern and i still don't get tired of it! It is perfect in every way: geometrically, esthetically and energetically!😍 just magical!🧚♀️😻 i thought your hexagon puff stitch was brilliant, but this, THIS is just Masterpiece! So, i just wanted to express my deepest gratitude.🙏💖🤗💃🧚♀️😻 just magical!
You are one of my favorite crochet channels!!
Could you come up with a shawl version??
Gorgeous. Colors are unbelievably amazing
Okay people! I wanted to try this blanket and so I got the yarn that she recommends for it. To me it's more like string then yarn. It is sooooo thin! It's 60% cotton and 40% acrylic. But the colors are stunning. I got 5 skeins of them, in different colors of course. I ordered it from the site Robin stated and it came pretty quickly. No issues.
Wish me luck! I will let you know how it turns out!
Tammy Frable it's strange working with such fine yarn to begin with but it's sooooo worth it for the colours 😍😍😍 Good luck! Xx
Tammy Frable I ordered different colors, 4 cakes of the same color of blanket and 12 others. I also got another whirelmothers are so beautiful
Thank you for this tutorial, I so enjoy making this blanket I have made about 5 of them for gifts for babies!!
This is beautiful. I am going to make this in cotton and use it as a tablecloth.
