I made an alteration to the pattern that I really like and wanted to share. Anywhere there is a single crochet, replace with a half double. The single crochets set slightly below the height of the top most part of the cables and I know it'll get fixed in the final row but I like the way the half double looks, I enjoy doing it more than a single crochet, it evens the row height and gives a bit more height when working the single crochet rows.
Part of the height issue was my fault in the choice of my yarn. I used lion brand feels like butta and the yarn just collapses on itself. It takes ages to get height out of it.
I just want to thank you so very much Mikey for being the AWESOME teacher that you are! I’m a beginner to all things crochet but I fell in love with this pattern and thought that’s too advanced for me but decided to try it and with your instructions I was able to accomplish it and I LOVE it!! Thank you so much for sharing this and giving me something beautiful to be proud of!
This is so super helpful! I'm better at learning visually than by reading. Reading the instructions for this pattern confused the hell outta me. You make crochet so much easier ^_^ Thank you for all the work you do.
I made this with Lions Brand Heartland, Grand Canyon (a really pretty gold color with darker flecks blended in which gave a great textured look to the blanket) for my cousin's 50th Anniversary. I NEVER would have attempted it without your FANTASTIC video guiding me! Thank you!
Helpful tip for anyone who missed a stitch! So in one of the rows I accidentally skipped the stitch (I call it #5) that comes before the skipped stitch in the moose track section. Well I did the whole rest of that row and the whole next row of single crochet across. It wasn't until the following row when I went to do the moose track that I realized my error. Instead of ripping out all of two and a partial rows here's what I did. I went back to my single crochet row (the missed stitch is the row below this one. I hope this is making sense) and I did a double crochet down (like a spike stitch I guess) in the row where I missed it then kept on going. Giving me that stitch back for my current row. You can't see it in the front. Doesn't look any different. You can only see it in the back if you know where to look very closely.
Thanks for the video. It would be great to see one row of the back after there is cross over for the cables to see how this is done as it becomes quite confusing in row 5.
Love your soothing, encouraging voice; I have always wondered how that cable cross stitch was made! After crocheting the single, double, and triple stitch for over five decades (those were the only ones I knew; I am cryptlexic so could not read written instructions), I am so excited about trying these new stitches I have learned. THANK YOU!!!!
If you don't like how the back side has flaps from sc row I figured out how to work it in so all sts are flat and together. When working sc row: When you come to the 9 cable sts before you sc; go through sc from previous row, yarn over, pull through one loop, yarn over and pull through one loop again, then go through first cable st on main row and pull through all loops. Hope this helps!
Thank you for explaining the design, by far this is the most easy pattern to follow. I like the way you explain it, so I'll be sticking to your videos in the future 🙂
OMG, I was just trying to figure the multiples on this one to make a baby blanket! I was SO close, I came up with 20+ 22. That turning chain always gets me!
Currently doing my second attempt at this pattern! On my first attempt I used the yarn I had on hand, which was WAY too thick for this… I would have had to use 10+ balls of yarn to complete the blanket (I had already started it with 141 chain length)…I finished one whole roll by row number six 😭 At this point I decided to abandon it and restart with a different yarn. I also repeatedly miscounted and had to do the first few rows over again because of it… twas not fun, but certainly a learning experience…. This second attempt seems to be going much better with the lighter weight yarn! I miscounted again on the first row (lol) but I rolled with it this time instead of redoing it all, so instead of having two single stitches on one end, that side will have three singles after the two front post doubles. I don’t mind the unevenness much so far. In both iteration, I found it weird how there’s flaps on the wrong side of the blanket where the front post doubles are (?) the flaps did make the first wrong-side rows of single stitches a bit confusing, but I got the hang of it. It still does look a bit weird to me at this point though… I’ll update when I’m finished with the blanket!
The flaps! That was my question. How do you get rid of the flaps? This is my second attempt at this pattern and I don’t think I’ll ever use the blanket with the flaps threatening to grab my toes when I throw it on.
So I crocheted my "wrong side" single crochets to the "back flaps" because I thought that was correct. (Also did this to the two end fpdc area.) Seeing this, I now know it's not. However, it looks SOOOO much better! It creates a kind of single crocheted "pocket" that covers that braid. And no looming flaps to catch anything on!
Mil gracias, es una excelente explicación, detallada y fácil de seguir a pesar que no tengo dominio del idioma ingles, estoy haciendo un pie de cama con este diseño gracias a ti, gracias nuevamente y saludos cordiales desde Nicaragua
Eres bienvenido y parece que tienes un buen plan para tu creatividad aquí. Mis mejores deseos y gracias de nuevo. - You are welcome and it sounds like you have a neat plan for your creativity here. Best wishes and thanks again.
Perfect timing on this one. I've been wanting to do a cable blanket. I had a pattern for a bedspread size blanket, but treble post stitches just looked too hard for me and with only a pattern to go by, I couldn't make sense of it. Thanks!
Yes he makes it look simple. I have a cable pattern that is more complex this this one that I would love to make, so watching this video is very helpful. Only problem is I am left handed, so crocheting is a challenge already, having to do every thing opposite.
@@TheCrochetCrowd Yes, this left handed version looks to be helpful. Will definitely test this left handed pattern. Love this cable pattern to and how you took the time to explain the pattern graph and step by step instructions. The pattern I purchased is a Celtic twist cable throw and seller only posted a small section of 10 stitches on doing just the twisted cable. Was not helpful or answers questions. Thanks and keep on posting helpful tutorials for us to view and practice.
Many designers won't answer questions. I'm unsure what's up with that. Happy to make designs but little or no pattern support. I'm unsure if people monitor their content to find errors when someone messages. Know knows. My crystal ball doesn't know that question. Wish I did though.
I remember that larkspur stitch lol. It was in your study of planet earth which by the way. I am still working on. Now I understand that larkspur stitch
Great pattern and great videos from Mickie as usual... :) I can't seem to get the right stitch count after going back across the cables on the even rows... I would love to see a video of that part...
Beautiful! I started this pattern and can’t wait to finish it! Question about fringe, I’ve never put fringe on a blanket I’ve made, does it hold/ together after you wash the blanket?
When you are on row 2 and single crocheting every stitch, what do you do when you go over the braided part? Do you crochet into every stitch or just the one closest to you? Just need some assurance. Thanks!
I love this!!! I love the larks foot too. That color of yarn makes your stitches pop and it's quite beautiful Mikey. I believe I'm starting to understand patterns a little better through your videos as well. I would love to try this. Tyfs God bless you
Hi..on row number 2…. As I’m going back across with all SINGLE crochet…at the criss cross cable..it’s very confusing as to WHERE to put the single stitches….do they go into ALL the stitches ,i see 2 rows..do i leave it open or??…
I have the printed pattern, but I want to make it a little wider and longer. I can just add 40 more to add two more sections of cable and braids? Want to make sure my math is on lol thanks for the video. Makes more sense now.
Thank you for showing such beautiful patterns. I am crocheting a cardigan with this pattern. But some how my stitches keep increasing. Might made mistakes in the moose trek stick and the braids. Any suggestions?
When you're doing the single crochet on the back stitch, are you supposed to pull the layers of the cable stitches together or just single stitch on the front one? Does anyone have a pic of the back?
Hi I'm on set up row 3. I'm confused on how many stitches should be between the track stitch to the cable stitch I think I am missing one or not doing enough
thank you for asking and answering this. it wasn't clear and I went behind with the single crochet and git a few rows done before realizing that must be wrong.
Love the cable pattern, but I don't do blankets, takes to long, lose interest. Can you suggest a cardigan pattern with cable down the front each side. I have been looking and can't find anything. thanks
Excellent video! I can't seem to get the right tension. It is rolling where the cross cable are. I am not stitching particularly tight... any suggestions? Thanks for sharing the video.
Love this pattern and I’m about halfway done with the project. But it looks like my blanket “leans”. All of my counts are accurate and on point. I’m hoping that if I wash and block this when I’m done that will correct it. Any ideas why this is happening?
I'm struggling with the single chains on the back side when I get to the cross stitched part. Any advice? Maybe I did the original cross stitch incorrect as I could go two ways with the single crochet it seems.
Same problem I’m having at the crossed cable..doing the singles across..as i look down i see two or three rows..WHERE do i put the single stitches!?..do i close all of it up?..I’m soo confused..
@Terry Padelio I was wondering the same but if you look closely in the video around 28:47 you can see his work also has the ridges where the cables are. :)
What does the back look like when completing row 3 with the single crochet all across? I find it difficult around the cable part to know where to single crochet since it looks like two parallel rows. Please help. This looks like a great pattern but I can't seem to get past this part.
On the back/wrong side you’ll notice you have all these horizontal ridges from the cable stitches. So my question is: any suggestion on how to combat that? I feel like anytime you throw this blanket on yourself, if you pull it up, your toes are gonna go through one of those ridges to the front side. Lol. Help!
@@TheCrochetCrowd I’m using Bernard chunky blanket yarn, so the flaps are much more pronounced. I tried this pattern before, and when I did the even rows of sc, I did HDC and dc in the row below to cover up the cable part, but I ended up frogging the whole thing because I used too small of a hook, and the blanket was turning into a heavy, dense rug.
I am currently making this blanket. I am several skeins into the blanket and I just realized that it may be a bit smaller than I wanted. It will be a throw. I am wondering how would I add a border to it? What kind of border would you recommend? Thank you for the video.
I would focus on a single crochet border evening spaced around with 3 sc in each corner. Then build it out from there The pattern is really busy so adding too much to the border may take away from your work,
The pattern details are in the video description with a link to the free pattern. All of your answers can be found there. All of our videos have the video descriptions with the link to the free pattern inside it. Best wishes.
I made mine with cream color. Though I moved a size up for hook, it’s too tight. I thought as I progress it will fix itself. Now I can’t rip it. Any ideas how to make it fall well? I thought my yarn even though it says 4 it is thicker. I used same brand as you. Please help. This was going to be a gift for my niece. It looks stiff n doesn’t fall well.
Hello. Thank you for this helpfull video. Could you please recommend me another yarn? Cause Caron one pound yarn is not available in Greece. What about drops or alize? Is there any suitable type of these yarns?
I'm unsure about those two brands. I haven't seen them to give you perspective. It's part of the world of being global that we have limited opportunities based on location. It's a Number #4 Medium Weight yarn if that helps you in anyway.
@@sherylhoffman1339 I watched the video a few more times and noticed that it was in fact smooth on the back on Mickey's project didn't. So, what I did was keep 2 separate rows, one for the front and one for the back. Sometimes they converge, but for the cable they are separate.
I have a question for you Mikey :) I like to do a chainless foundation to start. Can I do this in sets of 20 stitches plus 18 then start with a chain of 3 or a standing double for the first stitch?
I'm not 100% sure. Try a small swatch of it and see how many chains are used in the regular chain that you don't need if you do it with foundation instead.
@@TheCrochetCrowd sorry. I'm just seeing this now! It all worked out.. I'm well underway :). But I put it down and made 2 baby blankets in the meantime lol. The pattern is gorgeous! And your videos are invaluable xx
Can anyone show a photo of what the back/wrong side of this piece looks like? The front of mine looks correct but the back has little rows that stick up/are not attached to the next row along the woven cables.
You cannot post photos on this platform but from what you are saying that's correct. If you go to my recent video of the Mystery Crochet Hat. i did cables and near the end of the video, I flipped the hat inside out to attach the pom poms. It would look just like that.
I don't do well reading the patterns. I do better with the videos. Thank you for sharing. I do need to say it is more helpful if going off the pattern you tell how many skeins of yarn it takes I have another I subscribe to beautiful work and always tells you type of yarn how many yards the weight and how many skeins needed to do the project. Helps you have enough and not find out at the end you don't have enough and the store is out of the color now.
I'm at low 5 or 6. My cable areas are pulling in. Is that normal for cables and it'll straighten out as I go or do I need to pull way up to have it looser?
@@TheCrochetCrowd I'm almost totally blind and my braille labels won't stay on my furls lol. Turns out I'm using a 5mm hook not 5.5 though my yarn is a bit thinner. It's the feels like butta. I didn't frog it because of how far into I was. It's much better but the bottom several rows are curled up. Would blocking fix this? Or will adding the tassels do you think?
New here. I want to make this into a full size blanket, I'm lost tho when you say 20+21 I'm not sure is this means I count 21 stitches in total or if it's 20 stitches and then I count 21 stitches after that.
When you chain. you chain in multiples of 20... so 20, 20, 20, 20... when youthink you are big enough or want to finish the chain, chain the final 21 and you will have the balance for this pattern to sit evenly.
No continue to follow the diagram like I showed. Diagrams are not left or right. Every other row you have to read in the opposite direction anyway. It will work out for you. It's a myth that diagrams are right and left.
I've backed up this video and gone forward again too many times to count and I cannot figure out how you keep the tight ending loop on your longer stitches. On the larksfoot and on the trebles, my last loop is so darned loose. I can clean it up a tad on that next SC row, but How The Heck do you do it? I love this pattern and I love your videos.

Thank you I was just looking for the written pattern under the video 👍🤗
Thank you
I made an alteration to the pattern that I really like and wanted to share. Anywhere there is a single crochet, replace with a half double. The single crochets set slightly below the height of the top most part of the cables and I know it'll get fixed in the final row but I like the way the half double looks, I enjoy doing it more than a single crochet, it evens the row height and gives a bit more height when working the single crochet rows.

@@TheCrochetCrowd np, thank you
@@thryssinstitches9655 Thank u so much, so the row of sc (ws) do u also make hdc?
@@leboanna yes the rows in-between the cable work that is just sc all the way across I also did hdc
Part of the height issue was my fault in the choice of my yarn. I used lion brand feels like butta and the yarn just collapses on itself. It takes ages to get height out of it.

Just a note to thank you for making and sharing this video. I don't think I could have figured it without your patient and thorough instruction. ❤

Thank you for your valuable insight. You will never comprehend how much your advice will help, even if no one responds. :D
@@TheCrochetCrowd aw np and thank you!
I do corrections on the sc stitches if I skipped or made an extra stitch. I remember what Mikey says "Fake it til you make it!"
When you crochet your stitches always look so relaxed. Your tension is perfect. Unlike mine, I tend to struggle with each stitch.
Same! This is definitely my most challenging project to date.
Thanks for the video. It would be great to see one row of the back after there is cross over for the cables to see how this is done as it becomes quite confusing in row 5.

I'm glad the tutorial was able to take. you through a barrier.
The most helpful thing I learned from this video, is the idea of working stitches into the chain gap instead of the chain itself.
Yes, go into ch 1 sp, not the ch.
I just made this for a Christmas gift. Works up fast and is easier than you think. Loved it.
It really is.
Wow....that was some fast work!

If you don't like how the back side has flaps from sc row I figured out how to work it in so all sts are flat and together.

Thanks.
Thank you for making cables easy! I've always shied away from patterns that include cables. Ifeel very confident now and I'll give this pattern a try👍
I love this pattern and will be making this for my sectional. I love the symmetry of these kind of patterns.
You do a great job of making your instructions clear and understandable. I am going to try this. Thank you!
Thank you so much!!! Your tutorial made it possible for me to “get” this pattern.
Currently doing my second attempt at this pattern! On my first attempt I used the yarn I had on hand, which was WAY too thick for this… I would have had to use 10+ balls of yarn to complete the blanket (I had already started it with 141 chain length)…I finished one whole roll by row number six 😭 At this point I decided to abandon it and restart with a different yarn.
I also repeatedly miscounted and had to do the first few rows over again because of it… twas not fun, but certainly a learning experience….
This second attempt seems to be going much better with the lighter weight yarn! I miscounted again on the first row (lol) but I rolled with it this time instead of redoing it all, so instead of having two single stitches on one end, that side will have three singles after the two front post doubles. I don’t mind the unevenness much so far.
In both iteration, I found it weird how there’s flaps on the wrong side of the blanket where the front post doubles are (?) the flaps did make the first wrong-side rows of single stitches a bit confusing, but I got the hang of it. It still does look a bit weird to me at this point though…
I’ll update when I’m finished with the blanket!
The flaps! That was my question. How do you get rid of the flaps? This is my second attempt at this pattern and I don’t think I’ll ever use the blanket with the flaps threatening to grab my toes when I throw it on.
So I crocheted my "wrong side" single crochets to the "back flaps" because I thought that was correct. (Also did this to the two end fpdc area.) Seeing this, I now know it's not. However, it looks SOOOO much better! It creates a kind of single crocheted "pocket" that covers that braid. And no looming flaps to catch anything on!
This is beautiful 🥰. I had a few attempts , but I think I need more lessons 😩. I’ll be back ! Xxxxx

When you're doing the single crochet on the back stitch, are you supposed to pull the layers of the cable stitches together or just single stitch on the front one? Does anyone have a pic of the back?
You are using the tops of the cable stitches. I don't have a picture of that back.
i am making this pattern as we speak
Awesome.
gorgeous
Yeah it's neat.
I love this
Beautiful 😍
Hi I'm on set up row 3. I'm confused on how many stitches should be between the track stitch to the cable stitch I think I am missing one or not doing enough
I absolutely love the pattern how do I get the actual pattern, again a beautiful pattern and clear instructions
In the singe crochet rows (WS), are we going into the stitches behind the cables, or into the tops of the actual cables themselves?
Tops of the cables. If you see the crochet diagram that is provided, that may help you to visualize that as well.
@@TheCrochetCrowd Yes, it did, thank you! I am well into the project now. Very helpful!
thank you for asking and answering this. it wasn't clear and I went behind with the single crochet and git a few rows done before realizing that must be wrong.
LOVE!!!!❤
Thanks so much.
Thanks so much
Love the cable pattern, but I don't do blankets, takes to long, lose interest. Can you suggest a cardigan pattern with cable down the front each side. I have been looking and can't find anything. thanks
Excellent video!
I can't seem to get the right tension. It is rolling where the cross cable are. I am not stitching particularly tight... any suggestions?
Thanks for sharing the video.
It will in the beginning of the project. It should flatten out the more you do.
Love this pattern and I’m about halfway done with the project. But it looks like my blanket “leans”. All of my counts are accurate and on point. I’m hoping that if I wash and block this when I’m done that will correct it. Any ideas why this is happening?
It does have a slight lean to it. It's not you. it's the concept. It means you are doing it right.
I'm struggling with the single chains on the back side when I get to the cross stitched part. Any advice? Maybe I did the original cross stitch incorrect as I could go two ways with the single crochet it seems.
You just have to be patient with yourself. I think once you fully know what you're looking at, it will get easier.
Same problem I’m having at the crossed cable..doing the singles across..as i look down i see two or three rows..WHERE do i put the single stitches!?..do i close all of it up?..I’m soo confused..
I think i am doing something wrong on the even rows. It is causing a bunch of ridges at the front posts in the back. Am I going in the wrong stitches?
@Terry Padelio I was wondering the same but if you look closely in the video around 28:47 you can see his work also has the ridges where the cables are. :)
Veri beautiful. Кто бы мне такой след подарил? Мечта.💞
Approximately how many rolls of yarn did you use to finish the entire blanket, like can you tell me what brand etc and how many rolls
I will say the written instructions specifically do not say to repeat those 9 front post double crochets. It says to only do it once
Thank you Gisselle.
What does the back look like when completing row 3 with the single crochet all across? I find it difficult around the cable part to know where to single crochet since it looks like two parallel rows. Please help. This looks like a great pattern but I can't seem to get past this part.
The single crochets fill in the spaces. If you refer to the crochet diagram listed with the pattern, it may be helpful for visualization.
In the single crochet row, are we going into the tops of the cables, or in the row behind the cables?
Same problem I’m having…..😢😢😢😢😢
I used the row behind the cables because who wants that mess on the backside to catch my toes on! Looks so much better! No flaps!
I wanna try this! 😻 but I'm having trouble with the materials, what other yarn can i use because caron one pound is not accessible to where i am 😭
I’m sure you can use any 4 weight yarn you want. 🙂
Any size 4 should work. Just make sure you buy enough skeins to equal the yardage of the Caron One Pound skeins called for.
On the back/wrong side you’ll notice you have all these horizontal ridges from the cable stitches. So my question is: any suggestion on how to combat that? I feel like anytime you throw this blanket on yourself, if you pull it up, your toes are gonna go through one of those ridges to the front side. Lol. Help!
That’s the nature of cables for crochet. I’m sorry. Is your toes catching on it. I’ve not had that issue.
@@TheCrochetCrowd I’m using Bernard chunky blanket yarn, so the flaps are much more pronounced. I tried this pattern before, and when I did the even rows of sc, I did HDC and dc in the row below to cover up the cable part, but I ended up frogging the whole thing because I used too small of a hook, and the blanket was turning into a heavy, dense rug.
@@brdwaydreamr yeah. That will significantly change it to what you are saying.
Hey😁 if I want a wider blanket is I correct I can make 160+21=181 stitched for this beautiful blanket🙏😁
I’m unsure this is a question or if you are sharing fir other crocheters who find this update if they want the same.
I am currently making this blanket. I am several skeins into the blanket and I just realized that it may be a bit smaller than I wanted. It will be a throw. I am wondering how would I add a border to it? What kind of border would you recommend? Thank you for the video.
I would focus on a single crochet border evening spaced around with 3 sc in each corner. Then build it out from there The pattern is really busy so adding too much to the border may take away from your work,
Thank you so much for this lovely pattern😊. How many yarn I need for this planket?
The pattern details are in the video description with a link to the free pattern. All of your answers can be found there. All of our videos have the video descriptions with the link to the free pattern inside it. Best wishes.
Thank you.
I made mine with cream color. Though I moved a size up for hook, it’s too tight. I thought as I progress it will fix itself. Now I can’t rip it. Any ideas how to make it fall well? I thought my yarn even though it says 4 it is thicker. I used same brand as you. Please help. This was going to be a gift for my niece. It looks stiff n doesn’t fall well.
Blocking has improved the drape on some of my previous projects where my tension has been tighter than I expected.
Maravilhoso
Thanks so much.
Hello. Thank you for this helpfull video. Could you please recommend me another yarn? Cause Caron one pound yarn is not available in Greece. What about drops or alize? Is there any suitable type of these yarns?
I'm unsure about those two brands. I haven't seen them to give you perspective. It's part of the world of being global that we have limited opportunities based on location. It's a Number #4 Medium Weight yarn if that helps you in anyway.
I like the way this pattern looks on the front, but not so on the back. I got all kinds of rigdes behind the cable. Am I doing something wrong?
Me too. I think we are doing something wrong when doing the single crochet on the even rows.
@@sherylhoffman1339 I watched the video a few more times and noticed that it was in fact smooth on the back on Mickey's project didn't. So, what I did was keep 2 separate rows, one for the front and one for the back. Sometimes they converge, but for the cable they are separate.
At ..17:51….. in the video I’m soo confused..as to where to put ALL of the singles..?
Beautiful!!!!
Hello my beautiful friend
I have a question for you Mikey :)
I like to do a chainless foundation to start. Can I do this in sets of 20 stitches plus 18 then start with a chain of 3 or a standing double for the first stitch?
I'm not 100% sure. Try a small swatch of it and see how many chains are used in the regular chain that you don't need if you do it with foundation instead.
@@TheCrochetCrowd sorry. I'm just seeing this now! It all worked out.. I'm well underway :). But I put it down and made 2 baby blankets in the meantime lol. The pattern is gorgeous! And your videos are invaluable xx
Can anyone show a photo of what the back/wrong side of this piece looks like? The front of mine looks correct but the back has little rows that stick up/are not attached to the next row along the woven cables.
You cannot post photos on this platform but from what you are saying that's correct. If you go to my recent video of the Mystery Crochet Hat. i did cables and near the end of the video, I flipped the hat inside out to attach the pom poms. It would look just like that.
I don't do well reading the patterns. I do better with the videos. Thank you for sharing. I do need to say it is more helpful if going off the pattern you tell how many skeins of yarn it takes I have another I subscribe to beautiful work and always tells you type of yarn how many yards the weight and how many skeins needed to do the project. Helps you have enough and not find out at the end you don't have enough and the store is out of the color now.
I'm at low 5 or 6. My cable areas are pulling in. Is that normal for cables and it'll straighten out as I go or do I need to pull way up to have it looser?
Sounds to me you are bit tight. It should just lay over and not force it together. Just try giving a bit more slack.
@@TheCrochetCrowd I'm almost totally blind and my braille labels won't stay on my furls lol. Turns out I'm using a 5mm hook not 5.5 though my yarn is a bit thinner. It's the feels like butta. I didn't frog it because of how far into I was. It's much better but the bottom several rows are curled up. Would blocking fix this? Or will adding the tassels do you think?
New here. I want to make this into a full size blanket, I'm lost tho when you say 20+21 I'm not sure is this means I count 21 stitches in total or if it's 20 stitches and then I count 21 stitches after that.
When you chain. you chain in multiples of 20... so 20, 20, 20, 20... when youthink you are big enough or want to finish the chain, chain the final 21 and you will have the balance for this pattern to sit evenly.
I am left handed , instead of starting at the right side, would I do left to right?
No continue to follow the diagram like I showed. Diagrams are not left or right. Every other row you have to read in the opposite direction anyway. It will work out for you. It's a myth that diagrams are right and left.
I've backed up this video and gone forward again too many times to count and I cannot figure out how you keep the tight ending loop on your longer stitches. On the larksfoot and on the trebles, my last loop is so darned loose. I can clean it up a tad on that next SC row, but How The Heck do you do it? I love this pattern and I love your videos.
I don’t understand why that would be happening to you. I don’t have anything brilliant to add as a solution. It’s a strange situation.
@@TheCrochetCrowd , I'll work on it. Thank you, Mikey.
I have the same! For the life of me I can't help but end up with a super loose stitch atop all my trebles. Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
I have brain processing problems and showing how to do it.
