    This is genius to use a granny rectangle as the base to turn the virus blanket into a rectangle into a square! I love it!

    Thank you. I must have found this video when it was brand new, I've 'tried' it once (a year ago or so) and it was a disaster, that poor yarn (frogging) My world was destroyed 3 years ago, and frankly, I have been on a long journey back to some fashion of sanity (PTSD, AAD, DDNOS, I have an alphabet soup attached to me) Ran across this again today (you are one of my favorites) and I 'got it', am now 12 rows in and all is good :) thank you for doing what you do, not knowing, you were/are part of my healing...

    I am completely in love with the virus stitch. When I viewed your 1st virus shawl and got the hang of the pattern...I was hooked. Since then I've made about 5-6 shawls. Now with the virus blanket, it'll be the same way . I've never loved a pattern as much as I love the virus pattern. I know now why the name, once you get it, you can't stop making it and it just spreads! Thank you so very much for your great and easy to follow videos. Please keep them coming! !!

    Jonna, I just want to say that you are one of the BEST tutors on RUclips. You explain everything so well that it is so easy to follow your patterns. You also have a very good speaking voice, making it easy to understand what you're saying. When I see your name associated with a pattern or stitch, I know I can count on you to explain it clearly and thoroughly enough so I can do it, too. Thank you.
    You certainly are talented to create such a beautiful pattern!

    • @marigeobrien
      @marigeobrien 7 лет назад +1

      Oh, you deserve it. I know many people try to create good videos-- and they do mean well! But I think it's probably harder than it appears. I know I certainly couldn't do it. Few are able to master all the necessary components. But you do a very good job and deserve to be recognized for it.

    • @marigeobrien
      @marigeobrien 7 лет назад

      I'm now in the process of making this afghan and in the course of doing it, I had a couple of other thoughts on this topic.
      1. IF you wanted the dimensions to be longer, how would you add a second arch on the sides...? That is, in the first round of arches? How big would the center have to be? This is lovely but I still find it to be a bit squarish. I'm hoping this afghan will be good for a twin or full sized bed.
      2. Have you considered making a video about planning an afghan project? I love making afghans and am relatively competent with them. But I rarely follow patterns -- I prefer to find a stitch I like and go from there. So I've learned the hard way when it comes to the in's and out's of afghans. I doubt I'm unique in this so I've thought it would be a good topic for a video.
      For instance, I think it's worth it to make a sample swatch first when using different yarns, both to gauge the size and to see the color pattern chosen. There's nothing worse than getting 20 rows in and realizing what you thought would work, doesn't.
      Anyway, that's just a thought.

      I am working on it now, but it looks like you need to have multiples of four clusters on the long side MINUS one cluster (4x-1). Then instead of doing a sc in the top of a dc, put it in the space between the clusters.

    I absolutely love your videos. You are very clear to understand and your instructions are great. I am using this pattern to make some place mats which really only require that I do the "inner" granny square foundation, and 2 repeats of the "virus" rows. I was wondering though, if you had a suggestion to "even" up the outside edge to square it off, so to speak. Please keep making your videos.....they are awesome!

    Started the square virus blanket today! Would you be able to add a note about the yarn differences in the description of that video? The tidbit at the beginning of this video would have been so helpful before I started. I'm using the supersaver redheart and I'm sure that's why my blanket won't lay flat now that you mention it. Nonetheless, thank you for the beautiful pattern and taking time to film it for us! Your videos are easy to follow.

    Hi Joanna...so I've been playing with this and I decided to use v-stitches instead of the Granny stitch. Same starting chain. Just replaced the Granny stitches with v-stitches. It works but I'm not sure I totally like it. I feel like they should be small shells instead. I'd be happy to share a pic if you're interested.

    • @JonnaMartinezCrochet

      Hello! I’ve actually got a pattern coming out that is the rectangle Victoria’s German shells blanket and it uses the V stitches to begin too. It works better if repeated. I’m working on using the Virus stitch to start the rectangle. Eventually I will master it! 😄 I’m happy you got a chance to try other stitches!

      +FrancisBowieBeans this blanket was only about 26" on the short side. Like a baby blanket.
      A lot depends on the yarn you use and hook..... but if I wanted to make a blanket that big with worsted weight yarn and a G 4.25 or H 5.00
      I would have 2000 or 2400 yards on hand.
      That's a good sized blanket and I've not actually done one that big.
      I'd go with a yarn you know you can get more of.

    Hi, I absolutely love your patterns and videos. I have made a shawl for my mother, I'm making a square blanket for my cousin and I want to make a rectangular blanket for a baby. How many yards of yarn do you think it will take? I'm using the Caron Cakes yarn in Macaroon (I know that you said to use the thinner yarns, but the square one is turning out spectacularly, so I'm using that brand again). Each cake is 383 yards if that helps.

      You can definitely use thicker yarn I can do this pattern in any yarn. But many were having issues with it rippling. When your tension is a bit off it can mess with the lacy design.
