    I love working blankets from the inside out so I can just crochet until I run out of yarn. This rectangle is so unique and I'm excited to start it!

    I’m so glad you show us all the ways to start the different shapes. I’m a beginner and can follow directions. But I’m just not at the point yet to where I can figure out how whip up something in triangle, square, or rectangle on my own. I’m so glad you are patient in showing us all these different ways. You are such a blessing. ❤️

    Thanks for the excellent video!
    As a general rule, your starting ch is the difference in the side measurements. So a 3 inch middle would produce a 45x48 piece. A 5 inch middle would mae a 45x50 inch piece. A 9 inch middle would produce a 45x54 piece. Not an exact science, but pretty close - I've used this rule to make rugs for my bathroom.

      I've searched but could see no waffle stitch used in rugs. On the other hand, this is a wonderful stitch when I think it on a rug. Are you happy with your bathroom rugs? Aren't they stretchy or do you think they don't easily become deformed?

    • @dsmart1
      @dsmart1 2 года назад +2

      @@olguntoman5923 For my rugs I use three or four strands held together and they don't stretch out. All depends on stitch. I would never use the waffle as a rug, as I be afraid toes could get caught in the post stitches and cause a fall

Finally thought I had a good gauge Swatch but when I actually started the blanket, I was out yarn before I even got 5" in. So glad I found this video. I think it will be easier for me to see the yarn usage though I think I'm still going to have to buy more yarn for this blanket.

    I have a real problem with this particular piece. I follow your instructions precisely and I get to the corner. I say to myself, I will just do this corner ( to see what it looks like) and then I am on the short side. I might as well do this side, and then I am in the corner again....cannot stop on the corner, so I continue. I have gone this far, so might as well finish the round. There is no clear instruction of where to stop. Where do I go eat, do housework, tend to the garden and have a life? All joking aside, your instructions are wonderful. You are very precise, explain in detail, showing what you are doing and telling why. So many people forget one or more of these steps. Thank you for your youtube tutorials. You are a fabulous teacher!

    • @Scorpio_Love_11
      @Scorpio_Love_11 2 года назад +1

      All you have to do to do it the way you are asking about is instead of turning and doing the 2 front post doubles in a row is do 2 back post doubles since a front post stitch done on the wrong side of the work is the same as doing a back post stitch on the right side of your work.

      This is my question also - did you get an answer? Also, how should I make the corners if I work in rounds and do not turn my work? Thanks for any help you can offer :)

    • @katrinagreely5399
      @katrinagreely5399 4 года назад +3

      I’ve made several of these now and figured out the answer. When working the back side (Round 2), the row should end on a front post (final 2 stitches FP); then corner is DC x1, ch1, DCx1. When working FRONT side (Round 3), row should end on a FP, then corners are DC x2, Ch1, DC x2.

    • @katrinagreely5399
      @katrinagreely5399 4 года назад

      I started thinking about the fact that waffle composed of 3 stitches - 1 does its own thing, the other 2 act as a pair (regular DC and FPDC, depending on which side you are working. ). When working the front side, for example, you end on a FP, which would normally be followed by 2 normal DC. That means the corner needs those 2 stitches, then the chain 1 to make the new corner, then 2 more DC to keep it even. Same for the back side....as you get to the corner, final 2 stitches are FP, which means the next stitch would be the loner. So the corner gets 1 DC (then the ch1 and another 1 DC).

    • @katrinagreely5399
      @katrinagreely5399 4 года назад

      Norma, if you aren’t turning the work, are you working the front side (where you see the waffles), or the back side?
