Robin you have brought back my love of crochet, especially for the Granny Stitch. I know exactly what you mean about working full time and trying to finish projects. So THANK YOU for your efforts and I am sure I speak for your other subscribers when I say “we understand and appreciate everything you do”.
Love you and missed you Robin!!!!!! Just when I needed a hexagon pattern that didn't look like the proverbial 'granny' square, there you are with another video!!! Thank you so very much!!!! Good luck with your new job!!!!! Make us new things on your lunch break!!!!
Welcome back hun, I hope you like your new job. I love the colours you used in this blanket, I like these sorts of patterns as you can just do the hexagons anywhere instead of having a big blanket with you when you want to work on this.... Hope you had a great Christmas and have a wonderful New year... Much love from the Blackmore clan. (hope you don't mind I've shared this on my Pinterest account.)
Yay, welcome back, ive missed you and your tutorials. Congratulations on getting married and having a new job. Well, i think you got married as there is now wedding ring on your finger, lol. Happy New Year to you and your fur babies, and maybe a husband, lol
Afghan squares are very forgiving of mixing different weight and even ply of yarns. You might have to go up one size of hook if yarn/thread is more lightweight than expected and turns out a smaller hexagon than others made. How tight you crochet can make a difference too. But overall, crochet work is more forgiving than knit. I’m 70 and have crocheted and knitted since age 6, learned from grandmother. My mom would help when we got stuck, but she was left-Handed so if we had a complicated pattern she had to figure out how to reverse it, but mostly Gran got us over rough spots in crocheting. I can tell what to do with crocheting a pattern to duplicate it by just looking at the block. You can even mix different hexagon blocks as long as they are the same size along the sides. You’ll find when you get older that crocheting limbers up your fingers if you have arthritis.
Really pretty robin thanks for sharing great sash bust, but as always wished you used english terms not American ones I have to think all the time when you call a treble a double crochet ARGH brain hurts.

You have a lovely sense of colour and touch with the yarn, a natural! Thanks.
Whatever job you are doing, Yukon are wasted.
Hopefully in the future there may be an opportunity to do something creative....
Beautiful motif! Beautiful combination of scrap yarns. Almost like a planned color scheme for the Afghan, gorgeous!
Thank you so much Julie! 🤗🧶
It's great to have you back. Love this idea, good for stash busting your part balls and leftover yarns. 💜💐😊

Thank you so much for teaching easy and fast learner..
Now I know what to do with all of those little balls of leftover yarn. Thank you for the super tutorial!

I love magic rings. The more I use them, the less I like the chain X and join method.

😂 I got married too yes! LOL! Probably should have mentioned that before the job thing.... hehe 😂
Fab video Robin. Thank you xxx
Thank you Carol!
Oh look at that one year to the day, Exactly. We all going into 2020 tonight. HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE.
What a great destash buster love it 🥰 thank you I’m so making this
😍 stunning! Beautiful blanket, happy new year!
Wonderful tutorial!
Thank you so much Julie! 🥰
I just can't wait until I have done it... excellent thanks a ton....n welcome bk...🙏🏼😍👌
Very. Cute
Happy New Year!! I appreciate your tutorial and I really like the motifs in camera view. For the sides, we can just do a half hex?
Yes absolutely! I will get around to doing a video for some at some point but it's simple to figure out 👍 x
This is so great! Nice work :)
What nail polish are you wearing?
It’s a nice pattern, but I think it’s a little “gappy” , could do wither ch1 after the clusters.
An additional chain may make it even more gappy - feel free to give it a whirl though! It's an easy pattern to adapt 😊👍
Hi Robin, I’m a beginner and I’m just wondering can I mix scrap yarns in this blanket or will it cause me issues?

It feels as if I should be sorry that you have ro work and can't work on a project. I just wanted to see the progression. TOO MUCH blah, blah, blah
