Love the different scrap blankets. Recently, watching so many people using their scraps in blankets, I became really fond of them. The fact that they are unique is very appealing to me.
Hiya Geenabeans! I just know you'll love the 2DC. It works up so quickly and I think it really gives a great look if you work into the BLO (back loop only). Let me know how it goes!!🤗
Hi Sara! An English Cottage Garden sounds lovely!! My grandmother used to say beauty is pain, as she brushed out my hair. haha Effort that is well worth it can be random and fun. Thank you!
Of those 2, I'd like to try the double DC blanket --- but as a scarf AND a blanket! Amy, thanks again for the inspiration! You can be cray cray all you want 'cause I think we're all cray cray about yarn stuff together!
Love the double crochet blanket .I'd love to try that one ..I've only made 1 tiny granny square blank for grand baby .I'm working on another .but pretty new to crochet .I'm love that more then knitting .
Hi Bunny! I could not get myself to enjoy knitting. I've tried a few times. But crochet is something that your skill can grow and grow and I just love it. I hope to provide you with inspiration and motivation to try new stitches, to not give up when mistakes are made, and just to love what you are doing no matter how imperfect it may look. You can surprise yourself with works you can create if you just try. Keep letting me know how it's going with you! 🥰
Let's all do our best Forrest Gump "like a box of chocolates, you never know what you'll get." Random gorgeous is my favorite!! Hope your day is great Jessica! XO
I've been working on some corner to corner granny squares. I will eventually make them into something..lol. It's a nice way to relax and I don't have to think.
Hey Vicki! Glad to hear someone else doing these. I also thought to make different kinds of granny squares and put these together with those. I love the same thing, only different. Thanks!
@@amyluvscrochet6140.. that is so funny... I've been thinking the same thing. I've started saving different styles and tutorials so I can get my colors together before starting...good minds, good minds. 😄
Hey loriKae! That's my go-to between projects. I despise not knowing what project to start next, so sometimes c2c is what I'll do just to get moving.😎 Thanks very much!
Your blankets are beautiful! I absolutely love scrap blankets -the different color combinations are unique and I so enjoy seeing them. I am going to have look up your tutorial that you mentioned. Thank you for sharing.
Hi, Amy. Those are really beautfull blankets.i like your idea about just working them out on your lap till you decide it's big enough. 😉 enjoyed your talk today.
Thank you so much, Linda! What stitches do you use your scraps on? Just like eating leftovers feels like a free meal, so does using scraps feel like free yarn. Love it!
@@amyluvscrochet6140 I finished up a hexagon blankert (so many ends, yuck) 2 C2Cs, a ripple, and now a working on a simple one with rows of DC changing colors every few rows. Oh we love free yarn!
Thank you so much Judith! Here is a link for someone teaching the C2C with a chart to assist your eye in talking to your brain. 🙃 ruclips.net/video/KMi60YC60rs/видео.html Give it a try on a small swatch like she does. I've seen someone who uses a paper chart (like graph paper), try to color in each square as you go so you know where you are until it makes sense.
@@amyluvscrochet6140 I actually haven't made one yet. I've been wanting to because I have a ton of scrap yarn and I love scrap blankets. Thinking I am going to use one of your tutorials to make one.
Hey tootoo! I luv me another Amy! 😉 When I'm between projects and don't know what to start next, a C2C is my no brainer. Hope you love it as much as I do! When you try it, let us know how it turns out! Thanks!!
I love C2C. I’ve made at least 15 afghans with that stitch. You don’t have to use your brain too much. Turn on a good movie and go go go. But I never used 5-6 stitches in the cluster. I’ll definitely try it. Thanks. 😊
Hi Carol! What I mean with the 5 or 6 stitches refers to the chain that you use for the first DC in the block. I still only use that chain plus 3 DCs. In the way that some people use a chain 3 to count as a DC, if you only chain 2 then it makes the blocks more compact. So if you want less light to come through, chain 5 on the edge when you start a new block, then just chain 2 when you are within the blanket and starting the next block. Hope that makes sense, but please let me know if it didn't. I'll probably mention it in my next recording (maybe a few posted videos from now). Glad to find another C2C lover!! Thanks!
Hi Amy ... Your scrap blankets are so pretty! I made one this year but keep putting off finishing the fringe. Don't like doing fringe put didn't want to weave in ends. Hopefully I can get it done soon. But I liked how it turned out. Probably going to make another this year. I've got a lot of scraps. Might try the C2C. I really enjoy that stitch and it seems to work up fast. Hope you ha e a great day!!
Kelly, I am not a fan of dealing with ends, at all! I do a magic knot between my colors when I can to avoid that. Or just sew in as I go, but who wants to stop crocheting to sew. bleck. haha Thanks! 🥰
Hi Sunshine! The shelf unit was a surprise from my husband and sons about 9 years ago. I was called into the garage Christmas morning. I didn't have a clue! It was great. Thank you!
Hi Rebecca! Thank you so much! Here is a link that may be helpful as she uses a chart to help you understand. I saw another woman color in each square as she finished to keep track. Once you get, you'll have it and love it. (Generally speaking, I decrease half way through my yarn so I know I have enough to finish.) You start to decrease when you reach the width you want. Start with this square she does to get the hang of it ruclips.net/video/KMi60YC60rs/видео.html
Please show us how you did the double crochet over the double crochet. I am just new here and enjoy your channel. What is the name of the stitch also. Happy crocheting. Surprise I found your tutorial, thanks.
Hi Sheryl, and Welcome!! I'm so happy you enjoy the 2 DC row blanket look and excited that you will give it a try! Let me know how it goes and if you have any questions! Thank you!
Hello Gita! Thank you very much. My blankets get donated or sold, sometimes gifted. Please send me an email of the blanket you are interested in and what you'd like to offer. If I still have it, I can set it up on my Ebay page and send you the link to complete the purchase. AmyLuvsCrochet@gmail.com
Hello sohinidoshi! Thank you! This was all worsted weight acrylic yarn. You could use whatever kind of yarn you like as it was just scraps that I had. As long as the fiber is the same for washing you can use what you want. I'm glad you like it and stopped to say so. Have a good day!!
Hi rosimom! Sorry to hear this wasn't the stitch for you. Maybe it'll come together for you at another time. I've revisited patterns I didn't like and ended up changing my mind. Best of wishes to you on your crochet journey! 🙂
Hiya! The number of chains really depends on your hook size and tension. I would recommend measuring your chain to get the right size. Queen size dimensions are generally 90 x 100 inches.
I just found you but cannot hear you. May I suggest you either speak louder, bring your microphone closer or get a new mic. I cannot hear you unless I max out my tv. Not trying to be critical. I really want to hear what you have to say.
Hi kathy! I appreciate your feedback! I only use my PC for all things RUclips, so I watched many of my videos on multiple TVs in my house. The volume was fine on all of them. Since I haven't been told this by anyone before, I googled "low volume on RUclips TV"'. I found multiple answers for why RUclips TV can be playing at such a low volume. I'm not a techie person, but I keep reading about RUclips changed the way they send the sound out and there is a 5.1 setting that needs to be turned off. Most chat threads I saw said this fixes the problem. But it's all based on your system so I can't be any more help than that. Please give that a try. I'd love for you to stay with me. Thank you.
I have only done one other scrap blanket held with one main color (light blue) and random scraps held together just doing dc, we call that blanket toasty! ;)
These colourful blankets are perfect for children's bedrooms. Thanks for sharing. Watching from Greece ❤
Love the different scrap blankets. Recently, watching so many people using their scraps in blankets, I became really fond of them. The fact that they are unique is very appealing to me.
Hi Sigal~! Yes, I agree that each one is different and special! Thanks!!
Corner to corner is my absolute favorite pattern. I’ll have to try the 2 double crochet rows at a time. It looks really cool!
Hiya Geenabeans! I just know you'll love the 2DC. It works up so quickly and I think it really gives a great look if you work into the BLO (back loop only). Let me know how it goes!!🤗
Love the scrap corner to corner with the multi-colored yarrns
Hi, Cindy! I love re-using/re-cycling anything I can! And I'm on team corner to corner all day long, so this is one I love too. Thank you!
When I hear 'random and fun' I think of an English Cottage Garden - looks random but it's a lot of work to get it to look random [and beautiful].
Hi Sara! An English Cottage Garden sounds lovely!! My grandmother used to say beauty is pain, as she brushed out my hair. haha Effort that is well worth it can be random and fun. Thank you!
I love the second one. 😊❤.L
Hi Glenda!~ Thank you so much!
I really like the double row one. It's an interesting look. Scrap afghans are my favoite.

How many crochet chains to do a queen-size blanket
Hiya! The number of chains really depends on your hook size and tension. I would recommend measuring your chain to get the right size. Queen size dimensions are generally 90 x 100 inches.
