@@janicewhitley9900 I want to say around 10 of the bernat forever fleece. He's 6'1" and the blanket is taller than him & I also made a border on it. I want to say 10 but it might have been more, sorry I don't remember!
Thank you for your easy to learn videos. I’ve crocheted for many years and never understood written instructions. Your videos are a blessing. Now, I’ve mastered different stitches and finally able to complete a project. Thanks so very much! ♥
Dani, I’m sitting here watching this video over and over and taking notes. My daughter and I are beginners and will be making this throw. I love jewel tones, so that’s my color choice. Taking notes helps me with video instructions. Haven’t started but will post when finished.
I have to say THANK YOU!!!! I am using your technique to make my first item ever. It’s a blanket for my sister. It’s coming out really nicely so far! For my first try you made me feel like a pro. I’m still getting comfortable so I’m moving slow but my stitches look really nice! ♥️
I’m going shopping to the wool shop tomorrow to get some wool at this thickness to make a blanket for my Nan. Thanks will be a new stitch for me and being autistic I struggle with new things but I want to make a lovely thick blanket she can sit with in the lounge, now my grandad has passed away recently I think she needs something new, that wasn’t his or that they got together. Bless her has been hard and hoping it will help comfort her x
I knit and crochet too! I actually used to knit exclusively until last year, and now I definitely crochet more than knit. It's faster and less stressful if you have to go back to fix a mistake imo. I hope you're loving it!
Thanks Dani! This works up just as Quickly as you say and the Bernat blanket yarn makes for such a Lux blanket . I have a special tip for you! I end up with a small amount of yarn after each blanket. I have worked those into a blanket for MYSELF! This gives me a special memory of the loved ones I have made blankets for in the past.
This is a beautiful soft & cozy blanket. Thank you for the tutorial and the pattern. It is an easy pattern to follow and is much appreciated. That said, I'm not as fast as the creator of this blanket but I'm fairly fast once I get in my zone. She obviously is able to crochet this blanket in 6 hours. That didn't happen for me. I'm using 3 different colors #6 bulky yarn with a size 10 mm hook. It has taken me approximately 6-7 hours to get 1 foot of blanket crocheted. That means I have 4 more feet to go for a total of 60 inches and another 24 hours of crocheting. That's a total of 30 hours for the entire blanket. I'll need a border around my blanket as well because I tied the yarns together at the end of two rows/rounds per color and will need to hide the knots. This is a more realistic time frame for a novice or intermediate- beginner crocheter. Still, it can be done in a weekend and that's awesome! Happy Holidays to you all. I hope if you make this blanket as a gift your recipient enjoys it for years to come.
I would like to start this pattern and am about to order! How do you close the blanket in the end? How do you make a border to not see knots? I am confused haha
currently working on a blanket, finished one skien and just added another with her method of joining. literally can’t see where i left the knot once i continued working!!! this tutorial is really good !
Just when i thought it was easy i got lost starting at the 3 minute mark lol…. I’m going to watch this over and over because i want a beautiful blanket just like this
Omg, I read this comment, then kept watching the vid and started getting lost too. Checked the time and was like "damn, I'm lost at around the same time 🤣"
It’s because she made a mistake with the audio - she said to yarn over for all three parts of the stitch, but actually you just pull through the second part of it. You only yarn over before putting the hook through the next stitch and before pulling through the last two loops, not in the part where you should just pull through one of the loops. In that part of the audio she said to yarn over at all three stages… Hope it helps
Made this blanket today, I did adjust the size though because I wanted a larger blanket. I’ve gone through 4 skeins, I’ll need about two more to finish. I’m already in love with this blanket 🥹
I just discovered your channel three weeks ago and yours is the first video clear enough for me to understand. I'm a first time crocheter and you inspired me to make my very first blanket! I wish you could see her. Thank you for my new obsession.
The method of joining yarn you've used here seems quite easy to do. I've been crocheting for over 45 years, and, saw it being done many years ago. Had forgotten about it until seeing this video, and, am so glad to have gotten the reminder of it here. TYSM for sharing this video with us. Love your channel bunches !!! 😉❣️🥰😻
Wonderful! I love learning new things. I've (probably) been crocheting longer than you've been alive and I've made lots of different things, but I learned two new things from your video! BIG THANKS!!!!
This was a great video. It was so instructive but took very little time. And the knot instructions to join the yarns was the best of all. I’ve seen several videos of this same knot that made it so complicated it was like a scientific formula. Thank you, thank you!
Great gift. Something I can do in front of T.V.. Quick and easy, used to do crochet gave it up because too time consuming. This will bring me back 🎉 Thanks ❤
WOOOOW ur BLANKET looks awesome, I've saved it 🤗 in all my yrs of crocheting, I've NEVER seen a join LK this... "Thank u soooo MH 4 ur tip" 🙏 STAY SAFE & BLESSED
Just finished my first blanket!! It took me 12 hours, but it was worth it. I think my Bernat Blanket yarn must be thinner than the one you used. I’m a pretty fast crocheter so I wasn’t expecting it to take that long, but it was super easy to do thanks to your tutorial!! I will be trying one of your other ones next!!!
You are a great teacher!!! I have seen this knot before but the explanation were confusing but you made it sound very easy and even better, doable. Thanks for sharing you passion.
I sincerely enjoy your channel the most for crochet instruction and I LOVE that you don't repeat the same thing for every-single-stitch. Unfortunately though I have used this join method on many projects and the knot doesn't hold. If the knot gets enough movement it comes undone for me. Maybe I'm doing it wrong but it's a very simple knot lol
This looks very easy! Thanks for making this tutorial for a blanket in 6 hours. Never heard of this stitch before either, so this is my "something new I learned today" thing. :D
thank you for this tutorial, i'm just getting into crochet and most tutorials haven't been helpful for me but i found this one and im actually making progress for the first time and im gonna make this blanket and give it to my mum :) thank you ❤
Hello, I've decided that crocheting is going to be a new hobby for me this year. I've been to other tutorials that helped me get started on my path. I don't think I'm at that point to start making this blanket,but your tutorial was so easy to follow and it's making me believe I can do this. Thank you for this and after a little more practice I'm going to do this blanket. Also, looking through your other videos and I didn't see and crochet handbags and I was wondering do you have any crochet handbag tutorials?
Just made this for my sister. Took me a little longer to finish because I got sick and didn’t want to get germs on it. I love it! Started one for myself today. It really goes fast and thanks for the knot tying tip. Saved me lots of time! God bless you and Merry Christmas!
Great video! Clear and concise directions! I just finished a blanket for Christmas that took three weeks working on it every time I sat down! I think I will make this for me. I’ve subscribed, thanks!
This is wonderful. Thank you for sharing your pattern!❤ also, I'm so thrilled that you showed how to join yarn. I wish I had known this years ago. I just shared this video on Pinterest, I hope it helps your channel. Thank you again.❤
Thank you so very much for this tutorial I just purchased the ad free one from you. I have been wanting to make a large one for my son and this is perfect timing for that. I know he will enjoy it very much.
Thank you for this short simple look at a fun project. Every year my daughter starts crocheting gifts for everyone. This year my sock is Mr. Grinch. Her husbands sock is Daffy Duck. (Too Funny.) Well, may you and your family have a great Holiday Season. Blessings to you and your family.
This is my first time tuning into your channel and I really love your blankets. They are quick to make and beautiful to look at. Keep doing quick, easy blankets. Thank you.
This was super helpful, I’ve watched other videos and they talked too slow and went to slow when making the blanket. I’m going on a 16 hour road trip this week and am planning to make a few blankets! I love your other videos as well! ❤
Ha! I'm doing my blanket 48"x60".. I'm 48" wide, and 5" in.. 6 hours later. Hahaha I am using 5.5mm for a thicker blanket though. I've got 130 on my chain. And a complete beginner. Couple wash cloths, face cloth... Now a blanket for my daughter! :)
I would love to see more blankets and granny squares ❤I’m going to make that blanket oh i just subscribed to your channel. That was simple thank you for that
I made this blanket once, and on my second one. The first one the 68 chain seemed to short so I added 10 stitches which I didn't think would be a big deal... I ended up adding 2 more skeins and now it covers my full/queen size bed. I am now on my second one, the 68 chains still seems too short (I know it is an afghan but I like mine a little bit bigger) so I added 4 chains, I just finished up one skein and it seems like 4 wont be enough

I think its important to say that u have to keep the loops on the beginning pretty loose, as a beginner i did not know that:D
I usually do the beginning chain 1 hook size larger than the rest because I’m a tight crocheter
I second this! Don’t have a crochet hook bigger than 12mm so had to really focus on making those stitches looser and keep them even!
@@heidigresham8012 This is nice to know!
I made this for my husband, first blanket I ever made, he absolutely loves it! Perfect for beginners- thank you!
You’re very welcome! ☺️
How many skeins did you use?
@@janicewhitley9900 I want to say around 10 of the bernat forever fleece. He's 6'1" and the blanket is taller than him & I also made a border on it. I want to say 10 but it might have been more, sorry I don't remember!
@@erinh2704 thank you
The blanket pattern is herringbone half double crochet repeat.
Yes she says that in the beginning
What size is the hook?
@@Maincoonlover254 12mm. It's in description box.
Jesus loves you all no matter what he is coming back soon Jesus is king my savior my everything ❤
How much yarn do I need to complete the pattern?
This blanket is going to be my Christmas gift for several families. Sure beats doing an afghan with smaller yarn, and it looks very plush and comfy!

What a thoughtful and caring idea. I feel sure she will feel wrapped in your love.
I hope it went well! Did you finish it?
@@sarfitch sadly no I couldn’t do the stich. Only did maybe 5-10 rows and it was all twisted.
But since have brought her a nice blanket instead.
I'm a knitter and I've never crocheted before. I'm excited to start this pattern this week!
Hello! Have you already tried crocheting? If yes, please tell me if it is great or not. Thank you!
@@caelenbonoan8560 it is! I crochet, I haven’t tried knitting. For me, it seems way easier than knitting, but I believe takes a bit more yarn.
@@caelenbonoan8560it’s better than knitting. I used to knit but unless you knit a huge surface it’s better tbh
I knit and crochet too! I actually used to knit exclusively until last year, and now I definitely crochet more than knit. It's faster and less stressful if you have to go back to fix a mistake imo. I hope you're loving it!

Thank you! My very first easiest blanket!!
You’re welcome 😊
I just learned knitting, I have to come back to this
My grown kids would love these , I m definitely making one for sure
I made this blanket once, and on my second one. The first one the 68 chain seemed to short so I added 10 stitches which I didn't think would be a big deal... I ended up adding 2 more skeins and now it covers my full/queen size bed.
I am now on my second one, the 68 chains still seems too short (I know it is an afghan but I like mine a little bit bigger) so I added 4 chains, I just finished up one skein and it seems like 4 wont be enough
hi how many chains in total did you use for the one that covers the full size bed? was it 68? thanks!
Yeah, the blanket used in the thumbnail seems like it would be way more than 4 skeins.
Very nice explaination in a detail way thanks to you for coming up to us with beautiful designs
I made this!!! Gonna make a bunch for Xmas 😌
Just subscribed to your channel. Love the blanket ❤, definitely going to try it 😊😊
