Once you get the hang of this be warned, it's addictive!! I hope the steps and tips in this video inspire you to design a blanket of your own. If you have a stitch that you'd like to learn, be sure to leave a comment. xx
I don’t think I’ve had anyone ever explain the stitches as clearly and the edging when it goes wonky as you have. Thank you so very very much I’m 73 years old and I’ve been crocheting for a long long time but this has all been awesome I hope to see more of your tutorials and more blankets that you have made. I thank you so much and I will certainly pass your tutorial on.
I really really love your version of sampler blanket shown in the video 😍😍😍 Could you PLEASEEE make a tutorial for it? Thank you so much for your tips!!! I wish you a great day 🥰
Hahaha oh, good! Yes, do it!! It’s very forgiving. Or I should say, let it be. You can really make any stitch you want work with a little give and take. No one will know where it’s off by a stitch here and there 🙂💕💕
I was referred from my friend to you. I am getting myself acquainted with crochet after 47 years. I haven’t crocheted since 10th grade and this fall I made a sampler scarf with the help from you wonderful people on RUclips. I saw a gorgeous sampler crocheted throw in the Sundance Catalog and I wanted to have. It was almost $800 and I thought I think I can make one myself. It seemed so hard to start because I didn’t have a pattern and wanting it to end up pretty even with the stitches on the ends. I was telling my friend and she sent me your link. I have been sitting here going through all your videos. You a very easy to follow and understand. Thank you so very much. I look forward to starting and seeing more videos!
Awe, please thank you friend for me, that’s very kind. I hope you find the help you’re looking for and I’m sure you can replicate the throw once you get back into the swing of it. If you have any questions, send them my way, I’ll be happy to help. I like to think of us as a big community just trying to help each other and have fun 🧶💕👏🏻
You must have been reading my mind. I was thinking the other day how I wish I could learn how to make a scrappy blanket of my own design. I always wondered where to start getting the different stitches to work out. Thanks you.
I am going to try this, because you really do give all the helpful info. I have learned so much from your videos. You show us the "how," but you also explain things so that I understand the "why" as well. Thank you.
This video shows a neat way to use up some small amounts of yarn. Also, I remember my needle craft teacher making a sampler all in white but with lots of different stitches that really stood out when it was done. Keep up the good work.
Hi, your sampler is beautiful. I really like the way you've shown the different Stitches and how they can compliment each other. Thank you for sharing x
Good afternoon Roz . I love this project and I do have this book in my collection. Just like you I've made some blankets using several patterns exactly like your tutorial and they were beautiful . Thanks for sharing because it's always good to see hands on instructions . Have a great weekend .
Wonderful, Angela ! I’m glad to know someone who has done this before. Do you have any tips in case others are reading the comments? Did you find an easier way to come up with your initial chain?
Hello Roz what works for me is to choose a few patterns with the same amount of stitches try a sample first , see how it looks and then work on the project . This is also how I learned to crochet years ago by making sample swatches with every stitch and learning how to read & understand the patterns . Thanks for the question and have a great weekend.
I'm currently working on a stitch sampler blanket. I've had the hardest time finding stitch multiples online and I don't have a book on stitches. I would appreciate any tutorial or list of stitches that work!
@@LadyroachAlot yes, that’s going to take some research but don’t give up! I would focus on finding stitches that are a multiple of an even number. Don’t be afraid to “fudge” things a little to make the stitch work. I highly recommend you make a little swatch for yourself to practice different ones out. There are many videos that are online that share their multiples at the beginning of the video also. Pinterest is good too . Often you’ll find people have posted diagrams from books on there. 💕
This is exactly what I want to build a sweater from! I've never crocheted a sweater before. I want to do a very basic shape overall, but I want interesting colors and designs within the shapes. I don't have any pattern or guide for how to create a sweater for myself, so I would be winging it and just doing my best to make it fit. I figure a very simple sort of kimono style would be easiest. Would you have any advice for me? Am I crazy thinking I could fake my way through this as if I know what I'm doing?
You’re not crazy at all. If I were trying to do something like this I would probably start by finding something that has the shape I want and then taking measurements from it to get a general idea. I’d also find RUclips videos or free patterns on Pinterest /Google showing examples of construction to get an idea of shapes/pieces/joining techniques. Then use that as your framework to create yours. I have no doubt you can do it! 💕💕💕 just take your time and don’t get frustrated … it may take some trial and error before you get it the way you want 🧶💕
Qué bonito los contrastes de colores perfecto no hay ni un fallo muchas gracias desde España intentaré hacerlo pero hay que estar muy concentrado porque si se comete un fallo me parece que se estropea todo👌👏
What yarn do you use? I love how it looks and would like to get some and follow some of your videos. This blanket looks amazing and like a lot of fun to make. Thank you for sharing GOD BLESS 🙏🥰

Thanks for the great tips, I liked the Stoutos Stuff rainbow Afghan, I would love to see a tutorial about this one, what is the 2 and 3 multiple ? I don’t understand it ?
I would recommend you Google the stoutos stuff rainbow afghan. I believe she is selling the pattern for that on Etsy. Multiple of 2 and 3: you want your initial chain count to be easily divisible by the number 2 and 3. E.g. 150 would work. 150 divided by 2 is 75. 150 divided by 3 Is 50. Or 300 etc (divided by 2= 150 and by 3 = 100) That way you’ll have more options when you’re looking for stitch patterns.
Beautiful work. I wish I had the courage to try it. With all the changes and corrections to bring the stitch count back to where it should be is scary for me.
You know what? It’s not that hard I promise … just sneak an extra stitch in (or take one away) to help even out the row. no one will notice 😉 It’s a lot of fun and you could start with just 3- 5 different stitches . The different colors will make it look more complicated. ❤️🧶
Thank you ! No, this was just a sample I created for the video. If there’s a stitch here you are particularly interested in, let me know. I’m happy to do a video about it.
No, something that is divisible by both 2 and 3. 👍🏻 but quite honestly, I’ve noticed over time now that you can really make any stitches you want … you’ll just have to “fudge “them a little to get it to fit .

Oh awesome 😀🙌🏻🧶💕
Would love a tutorial of your sampler blanket...PLEASE!!!!!!
Ok 😀🧶💕
Somehow I missed this video. It explains so much.🌍☮️🌲
Yes, this was the first one and then had requests on how to make the actual stitches 💕
Watching this made everything so much easier. It made so much more sense. I'm a step behind. 🥰
This tutorial & the other actually making the sampler blanket are very good. Your explanations are great & easy to follow. Thank you!
I appreciate that, thank you !

I love your sampler blanket and the tips are great! A tutorial would be awesome!
I agree. I would totally love a pattern by this lovely lady. Love her voice and how clear she is 💕
Thank you so much 💕🧶
Couldnt agree more.
I really love this idea. Many thanks for the tutorial. Much appreciated. 🥰

Thank you so much , Angie 💕
Great information. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! xx
I’ve been looking for a video like this for years!!! This was so helpful. Thank you so much for sharing 💜
I’m so glad !! 😀💕
Great video. I'm also glad to find a sampler made from cotton yarn. Not terribly fond of acrylic.
I love cotton too - I like when I can find a soft mix 🧶💕
Good afternoon Roz . I love this project and I do have this book in my collection. Just like you I've made some blankets using several patterns exactly like your tutorial and they were beautiful . Thanks for sharing because it's always good to see hands on instructions . Have a great weekend .

So many informative videos Thank you and have a happy Sunday!
Thank you ! I’m working on a beginner tip video for next week that you might enjoy. Have a great Sunday too 😀💕🧶
Thank you for the great tips I really love your sampler gorgeous and the colours are so lovely. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much 💕🧶😀
I started a sampler for my laundry room window….wish I had seen this first…. I’m on my second panel but will use these tips for my next adventure
Awesome, thank you 😀💕
What a useful video! Thanks 🙏
I would love for you to do a tutorial. Thankyou for a great informative video.
Thank you 💕🧶
I'm currently working on a stitch sampler blanket. I've had the hardest time finding stitch multiples online and I don't have a book on stitches. I would appreciate any tutorial or list of stitches that work!
Have you actually started it? If so , what multiple did you start with? What is your chain count?
@@PlayHookywithMe I have started. I believe the chain count was 136 with a chainless foundation row. If that makes sense. Lol
@@LadyroachAlot yes, that’s going to take some research but don’t give up! I would focus on finding stitches that are a multiple of an even number.
Don’t be afraid to “fudge” things a little to make the stitch work. I highly recommend you make a little swatch for yourself to practice different ones out.

💕
@@PlayHookywithMe Thanks! I didn't think to look on Pinterest. I'll check there!
@@LadyroachAlot If you do another you might want to think about using a multiple of 12 stitches next time. Divisible by 2, 3, 4 and 6.
Thankyou. Beautiful and very informative!
Thanks so much 😀🧶💕
Fun! Thank you for sharing!❤️
Thank you !
How gorgeous! thank u for this x
Thank you! 🧶💕

Thank you so much. Yes, it takes more focus but also you can add or remove stitches to help with mistakes . No one will see it 👍🏻😆🧶💕
Great video thanks honey 😘🥰

Very well demonstrates, thank you. Is there a pattern for this particular simple you did in this video?
Thank you ! No, this was just a sample I created for the video.
If there’s a stitch here you are particularly interested in, let me know. I’m happy to do a video about it.
When you say a multiple of 2 and 3 are you saying multiple of 2 + 3?
No, something that is divisible by both 2 and 3. 👍🏻 but quite honestly, I’ve noticed over time now that you can really make any stitches you want … you’ll just have to “fudge “them a little to get it to fit .
If i made blanket how do i have to connect?

@@PlayHookywithMe Thank you! Lovely blanket swatch, the colours really make an impact!
Vous allez trop vite
Not made for beginners
A multiple of 2 and 3 will always be a multiple of 6, won't it? Why not just say that?
