You’re a great teacher!!! I am so grateful to you the way you teach is amazing. Your explanation is very thorough and clear. So very very clear that you point out the right angle 📐 or stitch to where we needed to place our hook. Thank you so very very much!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you for explaining exactly where the first and last stitches go, not enough people do that. That really helps new crocheters! You’re a very thorough instructor. Much appreciated!
You did a great job at explaining where to put each stitch, showing stitches, holes, counting, finally explaining to my satisfaction what it means to not count the turning stitch! Thank you so much! I always have trouble with figuring out the ends.
You did an excellent job explaining each stitch. I also have had trouble in the past figuring out how to get a straight edge when turning. I also have tried to follow this particular pattern from a book and could never figure it out. So thank you so much.
Absolutely beautiful, thank you for not going extra slow. Yes, there are many tutorials for beginners. It's how I learned, so when we follow your instructions, it doesn't get frustrating. Truly appreciate. Very beautiful stitch, and thanks for the mini tutorial about attaching the yarn.
This is a super easy pattern once you can see the stitches creating the cables. If you are having trouble getting started, just go slow and watch her closely. Count your stitches in the beginning. I love this and will be making another one. Thank you so much fo this awesome blanket!
Your instructions are easy to follow. Thank you for showing the details, providing written instructions and explaining without rushing through where more explanation is needed. The sped up parts are perfectly timed. In other words, you're a wonderful teacher & you have a new subscriber!
Thank you so much. I have tried for 2 years to learn the Cable Stitch. Now, watching and going along with your tutorial...I’ve learned how. You are awesome. I love all of your tutorials. You are easy to follow and you explain the details. Again, thank you. 🧶
How did you get on? I've started and It's turned into something quite different but still looks good.. it's a star 👍 good luck. Its easy as long as you follow the pattern 😁 She crochets so effortlessly dosen't she?.. X
I just subscribed to your channel. I love the design of the throw and thought it would be hard to make, but the way you explained and showed it in great detail made it easier for me to understand. Thank you sharing your beautiful designs ❤🤗
Excellent Teaching! Your skill is great and your teaching skills are very very good. I hope you always keep teaching for not only beginners but for all of us intermediates!!!!!!!! Thank you for such a nice video. This is such a nice pattern and so nice of you to share. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I was looking around for a new crochet stitch and something to crochet during the holidays and to give out as gifts. I've already completed one of these blankets, and I'm starting with the second one in a different color. I absolutely love the texture of this blanket and it is so comfortable also. Thank you for sharing and you're easy to follow instructions.
Thank you for explaining the process clearly and so well detailed. I was able to make a queen size blanket using 18 balls of Yarnspirations Bernat Blanket in the Silver Steel colour (super bulky 6). The blanket is big enough to share for movie nights with my daughter and hubby. 🤩🍿🖥️
Thank you so much for doing a tutorial for your pattern it makes a pattern so much easier to follow when there is a tutorial to follow. I have purchased your pattern thank you again for a great pattern 😊
I'm very new to crochet and have made 2 of these blankets. It took me a couple of practice samples to get the hang of it but then was pretty easy. I love it
You did a great job explaining were the stitches go. I’ve been crocheting for a while but I was still confused about that “ last stitch” thanks for clarifying. My only confusion is that skipped stitch on row 6.. I’m not sure y but mine looks like a double crochet not a fptr maybe I’m doing it wrong..?
Very beautiful, thanks for sharing. I am curious though, on the first row of double crochets as to why you didn't count the chain 3 as the first double crochet? Is it specific for that pattern? Also glad to see I am not the only one that single crochets into the back of the foundation row. It does make it so much neater and easier when adding a border. Happy Hooking!
This is a beautiful swatch. I'm expecting my 2nd grandchild in July and would love to make this for him or her. Thank you for the great tutorial. I've never done a treble crochet but have some half skeins of yarn I can use to practice. TFS!!! 😘
Thank you for this pattern it's very nice. I have started making it with some white fluffy chunky wool. I did order 10 in the Brett merino chunky in red but it's not really chunky.. gutted. I was going to comment on my piece as it's more of a twist look rather than a braid..? watching this again and It looks like I'm holding too tight.. I try not to but it must be why I cant see the middle braid. Hmm also I've missed to post! Just working the double then back to the triple!! Noo (I was in the garden while following.. Just carried on thinking 'yeah I can do that' after following once!! Tut tut. I do like the look of what I've done, My daughter asked me to make her something, I've turned it into a cusion cover.. When I do my throw it will be the propper pattern! 👍😍👍 Thank you. X
it might make it look more even if you added a stitch to the counts, (6+4), and make the chain 3 a first double and have a count of 3 DS before starting the braid, so you have 3 on either side.
I get that you think it seems like you are helping, Im thinking until you make your own crochet tutorial video, try not to tell others how they should make their projects.
This is a lovely pattern, but can you tell me if the ch3 counts as first double crochet? I can't find the direction anywhere. Again, thanks for the beautiful pattern.
Thank you for sharing this tutorial! I used it to make an afghan. I’m new to crocheting and made the error where it got looser and wider as it went and I didn’t realize it until I was finished. Is there a way to fix it without starting over? If I do have to start over, do you have tips for avoiding the same problem?
Unfortunately there isn’t a way to correct it if you’re finished, but I would recommend keeping an eye on the width of your project as you’re going to make sure that you’re keeping the same tension. If you find that your work is much tighter in the foundation row I would recommend going up a hook size for the foundation row and the switching back to your normal hook for the rest of your project. You can also go down a hook size if you find your work is getting too large as you go, but really it’s all about maintaining the same tension as you go!
You might be able to fix it without starting over by blocking the whole afghan. It will be a major pain in the behind depending on how large your afghan is. When you wet block a crochet or knit item, you can stretch it to any shape you want and when it dries it will stay that way. If you don't know how to block it, search for wet blocking crochet. The end result will depend on what type of yarn you used. If you used acrylic yarn the end shape will be permanent but if you used wool or wool blend, you will have to block it after each wash. As far as avoiding the same problem in the future, Debbie's tips are perfect.
This pattern is beautiful and you explain everything so well. But the turning chain has me thinking I’ve completely lost my mind. I have never not counted it as a stitch. Now I’m google turning chains and am having a complete mental breakdown. 🥺
Hi everyone, Please could someone help , I'm trying to crochet this blanket I chained 20×6=120+3 and when I got to the end the pattern was not matching the first large cable that I started with ? Have I got the correct number of chains or am I just doing it wrong 🤦♀️ please could someone advise Many thanks wendy from kent England 🙂
How many hours would you say it took you to make this throw? I am working on it now and it is going very slow. I followed your very good directions and it is an easy stitch once it is learned then very repetitive. I am not new at crocheting but this is my first project with the braided stitch. Just curious how long it took you? Thanks!
Thank you so much for assuming we know how to crochet. I've been crocheting for thirty-one years and fine it draining to watch a new pattern while the person teaches how to do the basics.
Hi. I’m quite new to crocheting. Can you tell me what weight yarn and size hook you are using? I’m in New Zealand and most of our yarn labels say the ply - eg; 4ply, 8ply etc. Thanks ☺️
I don't understand one part. If I chain 21 one way and skip the beginning of the next hole when I turn over, shouldn't I then have 20 chains on the next row? I keep getting 19 and I don't want to continue due to the fear of it being uneven like all my other attempts at crochet.
Hi Vicki! You will need 10 skeins. All of the materials and pattern instructions can be found on the pattern page:www.leeleeknits.com/the-liza-throw-crochet-pattern/
Hello, this will be my first throw, I'm relatively new to crocheting,would you recommend please the caliber of the yarn , crochet hook and how much yarn we need?
Autumn Day unless it is a striping cake yarn, with really LONG color runs, I would NOT recommend that with any cabled pattern. A variegated yarn will look awfully busy with the texture of cables. Solid colors best show off the look of the cables.
variegated yarn hides stitches and patterns. It competes with the stitches and usually wins out. Nothing looks good with variegated yarn imo, other than a small, non fancy stitch like sc.
It's just dependent on how many you chain before starting a row. For example in the second row, she chained 3. The third chain stitch counts as the first in the row, allowing the 3-chain to be its own double crochet post
Doesn't matter how many she chains if she doesn't use it as part of the pattern she ends up with an unsightly bumpy edge and that detracts from the finished piece. The pattern is lovely otherwise. And an experienced person can make the adjustment required to have a nice straight edge.
You’re a great teacher!!! I am so grateful to you the way you teach is amazing. Your explanation is very thorough and clear. So very very clear that you point out the right angle 📐 or stitch to where we needed to place our hook. Thank you so very very much!!! ❤❤❤

I agree very very thorough and simply explains those important little details
You did a great job at explaining where to put each stitch, showing stitches, holes, counting, finally explaining to my satisfaction what it means to not count the turning stitch! Thank you so much! I always have trouble with figuring out the ends.
Very nice instructions, how u get new ideas , we're we can use this stitch, that is scarf, shawl
As do I! I frequently end up adding or deleting stitches at the ends of rows bc I goof up the last and first stitches. Excellent teacher!
You did an excellent job explaining each stitch. I also have had trouble in the past figuring out how to get a straight edge when turning. I also have tried to follow this particular pattern from a book and could never figure it out. So thank you so much.
Gorgeous pattern! I usually don’t find crochet patterns elegant but this one certainly is! Wonderful instructions BTW! Thanks!
Thanks so much for this tutorial! I made my first one as a gift for a dear ol'cousin of mine! It turned out beautifully 💙 in denim blue.
Your videos are ‘just right’!! Perfect for teaching. Great relaxed speaking, not too anything. Thank you so much!!

Great job describing where the stitches go. I can’t wait to make a big blanket using this tutorial ❤
Thank you for the kind words!! Enjoy the pattern 💗
What a nice, detailed explanation! I’m saving this to work on a throw for my college buddy - he’s always cold!

This guy here cracks me up. Nice and slow for a beginner, not for someone advanced
Love this! Just an fyi.. you could ch1 and turn and you wouldn't get all that bulky chain barf on your sides. Ty for the tutorial!
thank love, what a wonderful teacher you are!!
Great tutorial but it looks wider in the diagram . Would be great to get an idea of the number of rows. What do you do to the edges?
Magnifique ce plaid 👍
Je viens de le découvrir
Merci de nous l’avoir présenté 🙏🏻
Thanks from France 😉
Thank you for clear and good instructions where every sts must be made looking forward to seeing more of your part
Completely brilliant tutorial, thank you so much! 👍👍💛💚💙💜

That turning chain is just sticking out so why not put a stitch in it. I can't deal with one side straight and one with that bump.
I agree. It makes her edges crooked and I'm OCD so this would drive me crazy. I would do a chain one and not count that as a stitch.
@@marietruax7232 Could you please explain which row or rows you made the adjustment on to made the sides look even?
I did a chain two and counted it as the first DC, that way it's neater and doesn't bump out.
Could you do a standing double crochet instead of a turning chain?
it might make it look more even if you added a stitch to the counts, (6+4), and make the chain 3 a first double and have a count of 3 DS before starting the braid, so you have 3 on either side.
I get that you think it seems like you are helping, Im thinking until you make your own crochet tutorial video, try not to tell others how they should make their projects.
@@kimbuchanan4714 , sorry
Don’t apologize as it is just a helpful suggestion which I will follow thankfully. I like neat edges too. 🥰
Some people don't chain 3 at the begining of a row but crochet a standing double and it looks neater,tighter,
I always end with one extra stitch. Can't figure out why.
I can't wait to make this! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful work.
This is beautiful, thank you so much for taking the time to make a tutorial for this :)
I love this and can’t wait to make it. Thank you for sharing and stay safe🙏🏻
Thank you! I love this pattern🙂
Your work and your hands are beautiful
Thanks Mam for showing in such easy way
You’re welcome!
Pretty! Thanks so much - I will use this pattern for making a gift for my cousin!

BEAUTIFUL!!!! I CAN'T WAIT TO MAKE IT. THANKS A LOT.
Would have liked instructions for finishing it…. But great tutorial! Very easy to follow and beautiful pattern.
Hi, I am new to crocheting. I wondered how to connect the pattern to widen it?

Bonjour vous faites un travail remarquable 👍❤
I'm new to crocheting. One thing I wish you would have taught is how to finish it. What do I do a the end?

What gage wool and needle size is required for this pattern and how can I view the pattern? Thank you.
If you click on the pattern link in the description it will tell you :)
Bravo, now l have to make this.
How do you finish the blanket ? A row of doubles and a row of singles ?
Could this be used for a baby blanket in double knit

Great job but the words got in the way to see everything. But not working into the turning chain gives you an uneven side..not nice and straight.
I ignored that particular direction exactly for that reason. I think it would've been fine had we been working 2chain instead of 3
Thank you for sharing 🧘♀️🧸
How many skeins did you use? What's the finished size? How many chains do you start with for throw size?
Hi Vicki! You will need 10 skeins. All of the materials and pattern instructions can be found on the pattern page:www.leeleeknits.com/the-liza-throw-crochet-pattern/
Found it and subscribed! This is gorgeous! Thank you. I love the chunky yarn.😍
I love this 😚
Hello, this will be my first throw, I'm relatively new to crocheting,would you recommend please the caliber of the yarn , crochet hook and how much yarn we need?
Hi Gabriela, you can find the full pattern, including materials on the Leelee Knits website: www.leeleeknits.com/the-liza-throw-crochet-pattern/
Beautiful! Thank you
I just started crocheting a few months ago and this is confusing as heck to me. I don’t get why you go back. It’s super complicated to me.
Pretty ❤
How many chains for a standard throw. Would it be 74?
Want to make this for my granddaughter.
I’m exited to try it!
It is beautiful though
Love your tutorials!
Love it
Did you use worsted wt or bulky yarn? The video sort of jumped in.
GORGEOUS
Hello leelee knits can I make 161 chains ?
This is amazing! Does it work well with patterned yarn?
Autumn Day unless it is a striping cake yarn, with really LONG color runs, I would NOT recommend that with any cabled pattern. A variegated yarn will look awfully busy with the texture of cables.
Solid colors best show off the look of the cables.
variegated yarn hides stitches and patterns. It competes with the stitches and usually wins out. Nothing looks good with variegated yarn imo, other than a small, non fancy stitch like sc.
What size hook are you using?
Love it ..thank you..😁
GORGEOUS !!! Liked and subscribed :)
Can you make this 80 x 90
Very pretty Thank you
Thank you 👍👍
Does the size of the crotchet make a difference? I have a size L (8mm)
Yes the size of the hook matters. The hook is bigger and will create bigger stitches. The project will have a nice drape.
Wow!➿
What yarn did you use?
Είναι πολύ ωραίες όλες οι τσάντες αλλά θα ήθελα τα σχέδια να εξηγούνται και στα ελληνικά.
Maravilhoso!!!
This is the first time when i see that chains of beggining being ignored.
It's just dependent on how many you chain before starting a row. For example in the second row, she chained 3. The third chain stitch counts as the first in the row, allowing the 3-chain to be its own double crochet post

Why size crochet hook??
