Well I agree with all the lovely comments. You are a wonderful teacher & I am understanding this double crochet now. I’m 76 & have just started to crochet as I too are quite house bound with very bad Fibromyalgia & arthritis. My other half passed 13 years ago so I live alone now with my little Yorkie. A friend comes in to exercise her but she is my little shadow & loves to cuddle up. She snuggles into my back & shoulder but it doesn’t stop me crocheting or trying to.
I'm an "intermediate" crocheter, but I don't do it for a while and need a brush-up. This is perfect to get me back into crocheting with some tips I did not know before and will make my projects look better. She does a very nice job of explaining and showing exactly what to do. Watch this if you already know how to crochet, but are not an expert, and also watch if you are a beginner.
I have try to make it but it turn wrong l would like to try again thanks 👍
I’m back to crocheting after 20 years. Some things I feel like I’m learning all over again. I like easy.
If you want to learn crochet.... this is the way. Slow and steady. You reap the benefits of accomplishment and you feel relaxed. Thx so much for sharing and for doing it in a way I just love. Happy crochet 🧶 xxxx Carmenia
As simple as it is, this is one afghan a person could reach for every time to get warm, with such a soft texture and rich color. Nice patient tutorial, thank you!
I love d/c, because it's so easy for my MS brain to remember and it's easier on my MS/arthritic hands. ;) I learned to crochet from my gramma, when I was about 13, but could not remember as an adult. So about 3 years ago, friends suggested I look up how to crochet videos here on RUclips. I did, and have come a long way. Once I got the hang of it, I looked up videos on how to change colors and have done so in afghans and scarves. ;) I am so grateful for people like you who take the time to make videos like this! I won't drive anymore, (due to the MS and seizures, so I don't have a car), and my friends all work (of course) and many are busy with family, so I am home alone a lot. So crocheting has literally helped keep me from going bonkers! ;)
Wow I got it, thanks 😉
AmazedbyHisgrace1 Hi, I'm bedridden due to "Failed low back surgery syndrome", and am home all the time as well. Except for once every three months, when I have to "go" to hospital to have my morphine pump implant refilled. I feel very lonely too at times, and am also beginning to pick up crocheting again. Itt's hard for me as well, because it's so painfull after a while, because my arm muscles don't work properly anymore either (I have a neck implant as well). I would like to learn how to knit again (used to be able to, but that was when I was in my twenties), but am hesitant, because the knitting needles might not be as handy to work with in a bed as opposed to a crochet hook. I don't know if you will get this answer to your comment, but I hope you do, you are always welcome on my FB, just maybe, if you're interested that is, send me a PM first, so that I know who you are, since I don't know your username on FB. Hope to "hear" from you soon. Take care and God Bless !
Nadia Verbeeck...I am so sorry! I have been homebound at times, but am usually able to get out when I need (or want), to. I will pray for you tonight. God bless!
Keeping you and Nadia Verbeeck in prayer for healing and relief from pain. I too learned crochet from my beloved granny! Her pieces were coveted by young and old alike. I too put down this lovely hobby for many years...with the wonderful news that I am a soon to be "glamma" myself I've turned to youtube for crochet refresher and find these videos amazing and very helpful! I wish you and Nadia Verbeeck great success with your crochet projects.
Awww, thank you so much Thea and congrats on your grandbaby!
I love the way you teach. You don't talk too much and you get right to it. Beautiful blanket for my daughter who is having her first baby.
I plan to make an afghan for each of my children. I have two adult boy and girl, and I’m at the age to start creating heirlooms. I already made several items for my granddaughter to be born, and now, afghans for my kids. Thank you so much!!!!
Finally a crochet video that is easy to follow! Your voice is so soothing! Teaching myself to crochet at 40, and I wish I would have learned from my late grandma. Making my very first baby blanket for our first grandchild due in October. Thank you very much!!!! 💕😊
M"
That's EXACTLY How I Crochet ALL MY Blankets!!! My Gramma Taught Me How To Crochet When I Was About 13. I've Made MANY MANY Double Crochet Blankets!!!!
Cool! A dream! 🥰
I'm new to crocheting. Do you put a border around the afghan?
@@candystebbins9588 yes, you can, in slip stitch or single crochet. It gives it a more finished and tailored look. If this helps?
Yes, my grandma taught me too. Back in the day where it was essential to get them done-- not too much time for fancy stitches. Good memories :)🧶
Thank you! I'm a beginner and your explanation worked perfectly for me starting my first blanket!
you are a lifesaver thank you I'm new at croqueting and I was having problems I was watching your videos they helped thank you so much !!! hope we can be friends God Bless You 🌺
Thank you soooooo much! This was my first crochet project and it turned out so lovely 😊
This Easy CAP tutorial is the Best I've seen for a beginner. Never knew about the ends, now will never have probs w/straight edges!
Thank You!!!🙄😁
Just started this as my first full project last night, and I'm so pleased with how it's going so far. Thank you for this super helpful video!
Hi hope you don’t mind me asking but how much wool did you need for your Afghan blanket? Hope yours turned out well.
Hoping to make some as Christmas presents.
This has to be the easiest tutorial I’ve ever watched. Thank you so much, my husband is going to love this Afghan !
I remember many years back, my Nana taught me this very same simple stitch! I remember I had made a couple scarves and an Afghan. I forgot how to do this stitch being it was many years ago and have not crocheted in a while. I came here on RUclips to search a simple stitch for crocheting and this video popped up!!. I want to get back into crocheting again and so glad I found this video!! Thank you for refreshing my memory!! :)
Grace Victoria I use to crochet but it has been a long time I go by reading instruction so I need written pattern how can I get one
I made this over the weekend! My first afghan ever!
you are such a nice teacher. You go slow n take your time. I appreciate that so much. Plus, your voice sounds so cute!!!
Nice to finally meet a crocheter holds the working yarn the same way i do! Lol even when i knit i hold it same way ..... happy crafting
It has been 25 years since I have crocheted. This is a beautiful blanket. Really thinking about making one.
This is the crochet stich that my Gram almost always used and i always wondered how it was done!!! Thank you :)
Kristie,I am watching you for the first time. I think you are adorable, and it is so easy to follow your instructions.
How many stitches do I need to cast on to make a full size Afghan? Let me know asap thx!!!!!
I am so glad that you didn't use a stark white background like a lot of vids. Your background choice makes it so much easier to view what you're teaching!!
I love this simple afghan, and the color is so warm. Thank you!!!!
I'm a beginner and picking up hints here and there from various RUclips videos. Your slipknot is the easiest to do! Thank you for explaining that. I did get lost watching your double crochet, though. I needed to back it up and watch a few times. Thank you, Kristi!
Couldn’t tell if the DC was in the back bump, or in the entire hole of the stitch?
Super simple I use this all the time for blankets & scarves.
This how you make Afghan blanket wow so simple. Always wanted to try this thanks for showing.
Thank you for the easy to follow explanation!! My mom showed me how to do this more than 40 years ago and I haven't done it since then... Wanted to try my hand at this but couldn't remember! Thanks!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you.... for the worlds easiest SLIP KNOT so grateful!
Its so beautifully explained.. Ur fingers move magically.. Loved it a lot.. To watch, to hear n even to do... And so started qith a baby blanket.. Thank u mam
I just have to comment on here and say thank you for this tutorial!! I am 23 years old and recently became legally blind and decided to take up crocheting. This is the best video that has helped me out the most.❤
So simple yet so beautiful. Thank you. 💖🌹
I have been watching videos for weeks now and finally came across your video. It finally makes sense! Thank you so much.
I love this tutorial. It is so helpful to me as a beginner. Thank you!
Most precious lady 💟💞 thank you for this ive been crocheting for years and trying to learn new stitches that are easy is amazing thank you again for sharing you're beautiful work
I have to say that is the easiest blanket I had seen I’m not new to crochet I have been crocheting for about 4 or 5 years now thank you so much for sharing your video I’m crocheting one now
I am currently making an Afghan based on this pattern I have trugged it through the airport and have kept myself busy for the past 2 months
Thank you, it looks fabulous using a chunky yarn.
Thank you so much , you have explained this tutorial so wonderfully - on my second blanket ! 😊
These are so satisfying to watch. I’m definitely going to have to learn this.
Hey! I'm new to crocheting and want to let you know how helpful and solid your tutorials are. Thank you!
This was an extremely easy tutorial!! Thanks for the very clear instructions!
You explain everything so well.
I've seen a lot of videos when I was trying to learn, and none of them made sense. I finally found some bulky yarn and practiced with that and it clicked. (I need glasses so the bulky yarn made it easier). I wish I would have came across your video a long time ago. You made it sooooo simple for me, and I'm tired of making scarfs lol. So now I'm ready to venture into blankets.
I am trying to pick up this hobby and I think I bought too small of yarn. Need to go back and get the bulky yarn. I've been struggling for a week now.
Wow, you make it look so easy! I only started crocheting today so I'm not very good at all but can't wait to improve my skills and start on blankets and other fun projects!
Me too,I started 3 days ago and did small chains of 10 to practice,I now am getting better ❤️🩹
I taught myself to crochet watching videos on YT. What helped me learn faster was doing a big project. I decided to make a maxi cardigan sweater and I noticed as I was almost finished with the back panel how well I was doing and how loose some rows were at the bottom 😅 so I unraveled the whole thing and started all over. Now it looks evenly nice and neat! Repetition was key for me.
Its so easy to make it. I learned crocheting in our school first I really like yarns to make pom poms. And our teacher teach us how to crochet and now I make scarfs bonnets and anyting that I can make with yarns
Thank you for this tutorial , I'm two mons behind with a blanket order , broken so many needles & tried hundreds of patterns.
Thank you. A lovely simple blanket. Nice clear instructions from Kristi.
You, Miss, have just earned a new subscriber. It is so easy to follow your instructions. I have learned how to crochet from my grandmother about 1,000 years ago and haven't done it in almost a year. I needed a refresher course and since RUclips is so much more than music, I came across your channel in a search. Wonderful teacher!! Thanks and Happy New Year!
You have VERY good tutorials and you are a wonderful instructor. Thanks!!
Love this blanket thank you
I watched this video yesterday and today I bought my yarn. Happy days
Awesome. So much easier and faster than the granny square. Thanks!
Great instructions. Very clear and easy to understand and follow. Thank you x
watching the speed at which you crochet is lowkey mesmerizing.
And she was crocheting very slowly! I imagine that, like many of us more experienced crocheters, she actually works at a much faster pace than she uses to teach with. I certainly do, but I've been crocheting almost 49 years now.
Easy and fast! Very nice Afghan for any skill level!
Love this! So easy to follow. Thank you!
Thanks from Australia 🐨👍🏼
I am a beginner you made it easy looking forward to more of your videos
Straight forward explanation. Thanks
Can’t wait to get started on this.
Thanks for this great tutorial. You are an amazing teacher.🌹🌹🌹
looks very easy thank you for such an easy pattern for beginners in crocheting
Beautiful cranberry color!
I’m starting to get back into crocheting n hunted thru many videos, this is by far the best n easiest. Thanks
I like the back bump single crochet border begining tip, thank you from Harrisburg Pennsylvania

Preston Williams , I'm also enjoying from Allentown, Pa haha

Thank you for such a lovely presentation of your beautiful blanket. I never crocheted before, and just finished a queen sized bed "Popcorn Stitch" blanket, using 4 colors. I was looking for another type of look for my second project.....THIS is the one I will use with my 3 color....Frosted Green, Lilac, and Aran White, from Red Heart Company....using an "I" hook. Thank you again, The edges don't look like they'd need finishing, because you finish, as you go. Awesome!
Thanks for this wonderful video. This tutorial really motivated me to kickstart my crocheting journey.
I've learned a more comfortable way to hold the yarn and made a beautiful blanket ty for sharing
I'm using a thinner velvet yarn, and I had to restart 4 times because the yarn is tricky to work with, but I finally got it going and it looks and feels great! It will take me a few days to finish it since the yarn is smaller, but I'm looking forward to the final blanket. 😊
How did you fix your mistakes? I just started this one. I made 3 to 4 rows and its curling on me and I dont understand why.
@@DearestMamacita I fixed it by pulling it apart and starting over. There are videos that address curling issues. They helped me, but unfortunately it's been a very long time since I did it so I can't remember enough advice to give you here.
Explained nicelly and clear..well done.
I really like your tutorial and by the way your wedding ring is beautiful I'm definitely going to try to crochet the blanket have a wonderful day
I never tire of watching this video. Seems as though I made an error on my first blanket. I did use the half double crochet. Now I will move on to this pattern. Thank you again for your tutorial. Very helpful. I see where I made my very small error. :0)
Like how you teach. Easy to learn. Going to make a few so easy. My family will enjoy.
What a great tutorial. Can't wait to finish what I'm nearly at the end of and get going on this. I'm in Liverpool England and could listen to your lovely accent all day. x

Thank You Very Much for making it look so easy !!!
Thanks for the video, you are the best!
I need to learn this. This video will help me make an afghan I hope.
Thank you for this tutorial! I'd forgotten how to double crochet and I was only doing single stitches for a long time. This was easy to follow and I've begun a new project :D
Love it!!! Your adorable!!!! Thanks very much, exactly what I was looking for!!!
thanks for everything from nigeria
omg this is a super easy blanket thanks😉
I’m leaning how to crochet from videos on you tube. I enjoyed your blanket video, so my next item will be your blanket pattern. Not too sure how much yarn I’ll need ..... hoping to order the correct amount. Your ice is easy on my ears, the size for a CA King. This will help my dbl crochet! Thanks a bunch 😊
Love this tutorial! Soo easy to follow.
Excellent tutorial - thank you dear.
I'm so glad I thought to look on YT for you!
My chain always seems right. I can’t wait to try this
Love this pattern,thank you for sharing ❤️
Lovely clear steps….many thanks
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve tried this blanket
I’ve started and restarted so many times.... your tips are great. I just think I need more practice lol
So true dont give up when the light bulb goes of there are basically chains, v stitches, rounds, and squares with a variety of puffs ... that's it
My problem is keeping my chain consistent lol
For beginners I thinks you go too fast to really follow have to keep going back but I will getter done. Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much for the tutorial.
Thank you your a good teacher
I need this pattern in my life ! !
Adoro trabalhos assim, está perfeito.
I am just learning to crochet and am branching out of just doing SC and trying new patterns and designs. I haven't made a blanket yet but im sure once I do ill be making them left and right. Thank you for your video. The next pattern I'm going to practice is the DC.
TheMrsbullard I’m trying to make a blanket out of only SC 😂 it’s going, but very very slowly... the double crochet was too intimidating for me!
Will be doing this one .
I was looking for easy blanket tutorial...came across your tutorial....very useful...sure to try this .... Thank you very much
Easy to follow.Thank you.
Very nice and easy for me to remember...lol Thanks
Great video. I love that red color
