If you would like to talk about and show off your Ophelia Talks crochet projects I invite you to become a member of my Facebook group bit.ly/CrochetGroup

Thanks for watching. Anja xx
Super cute stash buster...but those hands!!! I was dazzled the whole time by your manicure and rings. You and Moogly have the best hands on RUclips.
I have to agree!!! 😂
Acrescento a competente , simpática e tão clara forma de comunicação.Manicure a anéis valeram..,, mas a risada é agradável incentivo. Bravo. Hoje do Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, tento o meu apredizado. Obrigada❤
This is my favourite Ophelia talk's video,you can choose whichever colours you wish and make a beautiful blanket, cushion cover or lapgan using the same stitch. ❤️
Beautiful and so easy! When I started to learn crochet I couldn’t ‘get’ the granny pattern but once I watched your tutorials it clicked! Now I want to make this...errmm I’ll add it to my ever growing project list ☺️
This my favorite Ophelia talks video, I have made a few to give to family and friends and they r so loved!
Beautiful, it's great fun to see the colorway coming together from your fans.
Lovely blanket, a must for this year..thanks for sharing.
So pretty. Love this especially since it is rectangular! I look forward to the finished blanket.❤️
I am a knitter and always wanted to crochet as well, with your tutorial. It seems possible thank you.
Hi estyd1, you will find crochet is a lot easier, and more forgiving than knitting, the trick is to practice, practice, practice to get your muscle memory set into a tension value. Just do a bit whenever you can, but also please take breaks. Enjoy your journey, and if you need any help I have lots of video tutorials, and even a Facebook group, if you're interested, there you can ask any question, and one of us will answer you.
Thank you and welcome, Anja x

Very nice done....it is a beauty.....
Thanks for watching my video Aniet Gooren and keep crocheting. Anja xxx💕🌈💕
I have been given yarn and bought yarn from people where there is not enough to make anything big. Some are just balls. I love using things people dont want. It makes me feel like I'm saving the landfills! I am making a rainbow afgan that goes from a dark rainbow, then a bit lighter, a bright one, then lighter, then pastels. I have 3 more rainbows to go. Then I want to choose colors for this one!!!
That's wonderful! Thank you for watching Pam Sauce ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Fantastic scrap buster. OR you can always buy more yarn & coordinate your color scheme. Love the random color progression.
Yes you can make it however you wish Gayle, mix it up and go crazy!! Thank you, Anja x
I am currently doing this one to use up m scraps, and its looking good so far. I would love to win the HiYa HiYa Hooks to test them out, Love your lives, time difference means I have to watch later but I do look forward to grabbing a cuppa and my project to work on whilst listening to you chat with the group.
Lovely! Can't wait to try this! Do you turn your work after each round to avoid it 'twisting'? I've seen this suggested for a giant granny stitch blanket so that the inner square stays straight.
Angela Lang , thank you for your question, I’m making a granny and my inner 6 rows looked straight but now I’m on row 10 it has twisted and I didn’t know why. Think I’d better turn my blanket. Ive just found Anja on RUclips and really loving her chit chats and tutorials. Cheers
Regards from Albuquerque and I'm working in my blanket with three colors.
That's wonderful! Thank you for watching Monica Gualtero ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Anja, I'm new to your channel and love your projects. Have several in mind to do from your channel. Also, I love the ring on your right hand. Is it a custom made ring?
Nan Bas Welcome !! I so appreciate your comments.... everyone loves the ring... it wasn’t even very expensive!! But so effective with all the colours in it.... and I have had it for about 10 years now.... it is Victoria (sold like Tupperware at home parties!! In Belgium!) thanks for your comment!!😍😍😍
I love the colors too. I think it's time for me to start a new granny stripes blanket. I will like to know the colors you used to make the blanket. The rectangular shape is perfect and a change from the usual square blanketn
Thank you for watching Amina Yusuf ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
@@OpheliaTalks Ophelia can you show us how to do the. Bavarinstitch
I'll try to follow the video to make this but want to know if there is a written pattern. Thank you for this pattern idea, I love the granny stitch!
No Patty, sorry I don't have a written pattern for this blanket, Anja x
Hello Anja,I Think you can continue this blancket following the order in the centre and so on...🧐😍😘🌞🌻🐾🐱
I just started this. Do you repeat the colors in sort of a pattern or just add colors at random? Love your videos!
I made a blanket during the pandemic using this pattern. I used most of my scrap yarn so the colors are random. It came out beautiful and a great way to use up scraps!
Do you have a video on weaving in the ends for crochet? And how to neatly change color.
Yes I do Bren, it's on my channel page, put weaving in on the search bar, thank you, Anja x
Lovely blanket what about putting in white
yes why not. Thanks for watching my video Wendy Edwards and keep crocheting. Anja xxx💕🌈💕
Love it 🇮🇪❤️
i guess Im quite off topic but does anyone know of a good website to watch new movies online?
@Jadiel Carl i use flixzone. You can find it by googling :)
@Brody Jeremiah Yea, I've been using Flixzone for months myself =)
@Brody Jeremiah thanks, I went there and it seems like a nice service :) I appreciate it!!
@Jadiel Carl no problem xD
Hi Anja, Just wondering what size will this blanket be at the end, single or double? Does it make a difference when doing the starting chain /first round for length and width. X K
Hello, sorry for the break in answering, I must have missed your comment.
Obviously the shape of the first round will dictate the shape of your overall blanket, if you want it square then you have an equal middle, ie: 4 clusters, if you want it much longer you'd just make the chain longer and do more clusters on the long sides, then as you crochet, so the blanket will grow, Anja x
Love this blanket what yarn can we get in Australia that is similar to this
Tania, I'm sorry, but I don't know what yarn is available to you, it's a double knitting/3 weight/light worsted if that's any help! Good luck Anja x
Hi , when you do this blanket , how much wool is one round when it gets bigger, does it all have to be double wool, many thanks, wonderful explanation how to crochet, Yvonne ,
Yes, I always use DK, and nowadays always Stylecraft Special DK as it's my favourite yarn, it's difficult to say how much goes into a round really, obviously as it gets bigger, it uses more! Anja x
I am soo enjoying your channel. I’d like to make this Kiss blanket - where can I find the pattern? I just ordered the Vintage yarn pack to use for it. Just need the pattern. You are so very creative!
Diana thank you, I don't do written patterns for all my projects, some of them, like this are video only tutorials. Anja x
Türkiye den sevgiler.Thanksss🙏🙋♀️❤
Thank you for watching lütfiye Uz ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Is for single bed?
I love this design of a blanket.. my only question is can you different size yarn and would it require a different crochet needle?? I’m making this right now lol 💜💜✌️
Yes you can LoveIsInTheHouse! As long as you use the corresponding hook size for the yarn, and l wouldn't mix the weights in one blanket. Thank you very much, Anja x
I am at the moment working on the kiss blanket, and I am wondering if you have done a border video for it.
no not there yet!! will take a while!
@@OpheliaTalks I’m also working on the kiss blanket and loving it!!! Did you work on the border video?
Does the rectangle "twist" like the granny square does?
Terry Gresham I don’t think so!!
It's going to be a very beautiful blanket. How big will it be?
Hi Margaret, you can make it as big or small as you wish Anja x
Morning , I’m doing a granny blanket , it’s got a bit floppy at the edges, please help me , Thankyou .
This maybe a tension issue Yvonne, other than unripping and redoing it, without seeing it there's nothing much I can suggest to help, sorry, Anja x
Is "Kiss" a style of blanket i.e. C2C, temperature, etc. or is it just the name of the pattern?
This is just the name. Thanks for watching my video Michelle M and keep crocheting. Anja xxx💕🌈💕
I’m having problems, I’m not changing colors how do I do then?
slipstitch to the next location for a cluster, hope this helps!
How big did u make the blanket?
I do well with written patterns. Where could I access this written pattern for the blanket?☺️
No sorry Lil, not all my tutorials have written instructions, the rest are the videos, Anja x
Ik zou graag de haakset winnen want dan kan ik nog meer mooie dekens maken van jouw filmpjes .
What’s the beginning chain numbers ( multiple‘a) I need a little bigger?
Thank you in advance !!!
Tony, you start from the middle, so you just keep going until it's the size you require! Anja x
Riya from TikTok sent me here! ✨
Welcome and thank you for watching
Where can I find the beginning of this blanket tutorial?
Thank you for watching Kim Waknitz ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Hello! I’m trying this lovely pattern using a color changing yarn, so no changing yarns, just a continuous granny stripe. On my first attempt it looked rather lopsided because the move from one round to the next, so I’m trying this again.
I’m fairly new to crochet so I’m just guessing:
Would I slipstitch to finish that round and then 2 ch to jump up to the next round? Then would I count that 2 chain as a double crochet and add 2 more double crochets for the first cluster in the next round? 🤷♀️ Any advise would be really appreciated.
Thank you so much for sharing your work and your knowledge.
Maybe you need to turn your work every row (video coming up soon) but I do 3 slip stitches to bring me to the next location for my next granny cluster. Thank you for watching Geetha Singaracharlu ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Ophelia Talks Ah! Thank you Anja. My second attempt was much better. 😊
Where can I find the written instructions to this kiss blanket? Thank you so much. Love your videos.
There is no written pattern for this pattern... hopefully the video can guide you...
Thanks.
Thank you, for sharing, it's an easy beginning, how us your pet cat? ❤
Thank you very much Victoria, Layla is just fine, doing her own thing as she does! Anja x
@@OpheliaTalks I have two of the Luna and Lexi and when I am crocheting or knitting they love to play around with the yarn, thank you for your reply I love watching and following your easy videos 🤗
I turn my granny square blankets to avoid twisting. Can you turn this rectangular granny too or is it not required.
Yes you can turn this also, Anja x
Thak You.
