This has helped me so much. I have tried for a year and kept undoing my work not satisfied and putting the yarn in the corner til trying again.. and this is the best video really helped and i feel confident in the work I am doing now on this blanket thank you
Your tutorials are so easy to follow. You make crocheting fun. I loved how slowly you taught this- and you kept the language simple and uncomplicated. Thank you!
I have never crocheted a thing before. I bought stuff to crochet about 2 weeks ago .. I have looked and looked at several different videos, all the ones people recommended . Couldn't understand any of them or they still went too fast. Finally came up across your video today and I have half my blanket done so far! Thank you!
Hey so for anyone having curling or mix up Yeah I am too! Just so you know not all videos are easy to understand, I am sure this is a lovely person trying to help, but I got confused as well! Give them some likes and love before moving on though!
@@keyanichapman4533 yeah I finally figured out mine, bad thing is I forgot where I messed up really! What I know is restart and go through both little V shaped things!
Thank you for teaching me how to make a blanket crocheting it! I’m learning how to make it now with your video! I couldn’t figure out how to make it with anyone else’s video to crochet a blanket and your video is easier for me cause I have a disability and the video is slow and easy for me to understand. I’ll take a photo when I’m done my blanket! I’m just making mine longer with extra rows so it’s longer for my mom to use! I’ll take photos when I’m done to show it to you! 🧶
This is awesome awesome AWESOME!! TYSM ILYSMMM MAKING A BLANKET HAS NEVER BEEN EASIER AND FUN!!! EVEN MY MUM WANTED TO LEARN BEACAUSE OF HOW EASY YOU MADE IT LOOK!!!! 😊😊😊😊 TY TY TY YOUR THE BEST!!
Very easy to pattern to follow. I'm new to crochet and I've just learned the basic stitches. Other videos had double crochet stitches in their pattern, it was very hard to do. This single crochet stitch is a lot easier.❤
I watched this video last month and I want to say this taught me to crochet a blanket but I messed up my blanket by my beginning chain being to tight and it’s so important to count your chains. Or your end up with curled ends
For this blanket, you are using 16 skeins of Bernat Velvet Yarn. How many yards per skein? I am using Bernat Baby Blanket Yarn -100g -6 Super Bulky - 72 Yards. Would I use the same amount of skeins? I'm fairly new to crochet and know the basic stitches. Your instruction video is perfect. Very easy to follow. Thank you.
Perfect video for a beginner! I love this color to . I wonder how would one hook the colors together when doing a striped blanket ? The middle part seems easy if I’m imagining how to do it right lol but starting the different color at the ends ….. how do we do that and make sure the blanket edges stay nice and straight ? Going to search to see if you have a tutorial already on how to make a striped blanket to but I’m definitely saving this video for my first blanket to try ( other than one I finger knitted) . I love to crochet but I have to start really simple …. I keep messing up on the more complicated patterns . I either can’t find the loop to thread my next stitch through or my stitches are too tight or too loose . This might be the perfect pattern to help me practice getting the tension right .
Fantastic video, it's great as I'm a beginner too. I'm managing to do the first 125 loops fine but then struggling to do the next step & don't know if I'm missing loops out again, I've started again 3 times & always getting the same problem 😔
I dont know if you are still working on the blanket but if you are i recommend watching videos on how to turn. Its pretty easy to do just a little finicky when you are first learning
@Neptune I did eventually thank you 😊, I'm doing a new blanket with same pattern for a family member at the moment, once I got used to it, it was really easy. I'd literally missed one of the loops out which made it look comple different
Question, why use a larger hook than the yarn calls for? I want to get this exact same type of yarn and it calls for a 6.5mm. Which hook should I get? A 6.5 or a 9
Thank you for this! I am brand new and was trying a blanket with this yarn that alternates single and treble crochet. I was having such a hard time! I’m going to try this one. I only have a 10 hook. Should this be ok? I know the stitches will be a little looser but I tend to use a lot of tension anyway.
Hi Alyssa. First of all - Polyester Yarn in this volume is a #¤!&=(! to work with! The only really solution is to make sure your stitchnumbers are the same and tension as well. That helps a little, but a large blanket with an "Open" stitch will be uneven no matter what. You couls add a border/edge to see if that might help it. Have fun... 😉 /Vibeke
I’m a beginner and am trying to follow along. If you start with 125 chains then skip your first stitch to have 124 then the third row you continue to skip your first stitch then you’d have 123 and so on. So you’d essentially be making a triangle. Am I missing something? How does it stay even?
My blanket is shrinking as I go along, is this because I am missing stitches when I turn it? I feel like I am following all the instructions but it keeps coming out uneven
i’m having a problem. i’m new at this i’ve noticed how obvious your “V’s” are on TOP of your rows. mine are less obvious and kind of on the side. what am i doing wrong?! 😫
I don’t think you’re doing anything wrong! The position that you hold the chains you make can sometimes turn, or it’s the tension fluctuating, and it takes a WHOLE lot of practice to get a clear v, but I promise you’ll get there!
How many rolls of yarn do i need for a baby blanket? I bought 3 of the bernat pink frosting thinking that was enough but i read the description of the video and it said 16, is that true?
What other yarn can I use for this blanket? Bernat is hard to find in the UK and when you do it's very expensive, £20+ for one skein/ball making it cost £300+ to make this. Could I use Super Chunky? This will be my first time trying to crochet.
She left a long tail to weave in... you never want to start right at the very end of the yarn.. always leave yourself a couple inches to secure with at the end of your project
That velvet yarn looks thicker than bernat velvet. Is it a different brand? Looking to find something similar to what you are actually using. Thank you!
She is using Bernat Blanket Yarn which is a chenille yarn, it is thicker, and not Bernat Velvet which is velvet yarn and not as thick. I make my blankets in Bernat Blanket and use a 10mm hook all the time.
I'm confused - In the second row you're only going in one side of the chain then the third row you go through the whole chain? What do you do for the 4th row?? Back to only going through one side of the chain?
Please, help I am new. What is the purpose of skipping the first chain in your first row? Why? I watched other videos that do the same skipping of the first foundation chain I am trying to make a bigger blanket with the same yarn you have and a single crochet stitch. Have noticed that after 4 rows it is starting to look curved. What I am doing wrong?
Idk if you found it out or not but the purpose is to make the row "stand". So if ur chain's length is 20 and the stitch u will make is single crochet. You create 21 chain instead and skip first chain to make it 20. That'll serve as the height of single crochet. Other examples: 20 chains then add 1 for sc and half double crochet (21 ch) 20 chains then add 2 for double crochet and triple crochet (22 ch) That is why at end of row we either chain 1 or chain 2. It has the same purpose. It'll also help in making the rows even. °^° Hope u understand and helps °^° If ur having a hard time understanding try it. After all trying it and seeing it is easier ^-^

I had same problem but it straight ens as you go...gotta crochet looser...maybe you're holding hook to tight...
You have to stitch 1 through the first loop and then stitch again going through the first and second loop all the way back
You can increase to fix that

Hi I love this blanket!
Where can I get that beautiful color of yarn???
Thank You so much 🥰 from Hobbii 😊
Does it matter how many links you do in your chain or if there is an even or uneven number?
How many yarns did u end up using? As in skeins
My question to?
I ended Up with 15 skeins 😊
15 Bernat Blanket ? REALLY? So $150 on the yarn? WOW.
i gotta say diving ducks crochet when you said 125 chains i thought to myself "scary" BUT i am having fun thank you for making a good video i enjoyed!
How big will the blanket be using 125 chains?
If I want the first chain to be more than 125 what do I have to do to make it divisible by?
I am brand new to trying crochet. What is a skein and how does that translate to packages of yarn ?
THANK YOU I AM HOPING I CAN DO THIS!!!!!! PEACE AND HAPPINESS TO YOU!!!
After you chain one and turn do you always skip a stitch for each row?
How do we end the blanket and how do we add in more yarn when we run low?
To add more yarn all you do is tie a knot at the end of the yarn, cut the extra and keep going
Thank you 😊
To end the blanket, you pull the hook through the loop and weave in the end 😊
How do you weave in the ends? I'm new at Crocheting, Thank You!
Gracias!!!! Bonita, calientita y rápida!!!!! 😘🇲🇽👏👏👏👏🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. Agradezco los subtítulos
Thank you so much 😊😍

I used 12 ish skeins. Each skein is 130 yards.

About how many skeins would I need for a baby blanket 28x25
Depends on the kind and weight of yarn you're using.
About 300-400 gram 😊
I’m a beginner and am trying to follow along. If you start with 125 chains then skip your first stitch to have 124 then the third row you continue to skip your first stitch then you’d have 123 and so on. So you’d essentially be making a triangle. Am I missing something? How does it stay even?
At the end of every row you always have a turning chain, or one or more chains, depending on the pattern.
The one stitch she said to miss is the chain 1. SC all across will give you 124 SC
it stays at 124 after the first row correct?????
Did you do an edging
GREAT Tutorial
Can I do less chains than 125
My blanket is shrinking as I go along, is this because I am missing stitches when I turn it? I feel like I am following all the instructions but it keeps coming out uneven
Please help, this is the only tutorial I’ve been able to learn off of
Try using a stitch marker in the first stitch of each row. It seems that you miss this stitch.
Sencillamente hermosa Gracias por compartir

What is the size for the yarn and the hook ?
0:38 she says the yarn requires a 6mm hook but she preferred to use a 9mm
We're we buy this material it's available in Amazon

How many rolls of yarn do i need for a baby blanket? I bought 3 of the bernat pink frosting thinking that was enough but i read the description of the video and it said 16, is that true?
What’s the difference between Bernat blanket and Bernat baby blanket. As far as I know they are both #6
What other yarn can I use for this blanket?
Bernat is hard to find in the UK and when you do it's very expensive, £20+ for one skein/ball making it cost £300+ to make this.
Could I use Super Chunky?
This will be my first time trying to crochet.
If I’m doing g a baby blanket, how many do you chain 65?
Im very confused did she start off in in the middle of the crochet yarn? 0:56
She left a long tail to weave in... you never want to start right at the very end of the yarn.. always leave yourself a couple inches to secure with at the end of your project
That velvet yarn looks thicker than bernat velvet. Is it a different brand? Looking to find something similar to what you are actually using. Thank you!
Hi Jennifer. I must admit, that sometimes I buy "Baby Snuggle Yarn" from Hobbii. 😊
She is using Bernat Blanket Yarn which is a chenille yarn, it is thicker, and not Bernat Velvet which is velvet yarn and not as thick. I make my blankets in Bernat Blanket and use a 10mm hook all the time.
How much yarn do i have to pull out to start?
I'm on my 2nd row tyyyyyyyy
How much yarn do I need for this size? I’m not sure what 16 skeins means
Please lol and thank you 😌
I'm confused - In the second row you're only going in one side of the chain then the third row you go through the whole chain? What do you do for the 4th row?? Back to only going through one side of the chain?
Please, help I am new.
What is the purpose of skipping the first chain in your first row? Why?
I watched other videos that do the same skipping of the first foundation chain
I am trying to make a bigger blanket with the same yarn you have and a single crochet stitch.
Have noticed that after 4 rows it is starting to look curved. What I am doing wrong?
Idk if you found it out or not but the purpose is to make the row "stand".
So if ur chain's length is 20 and the stitch u will make is single crochet. You create 21 chain instead and skip first chain to make it 20. That'll serve as the height of single crochet.

Hi. See comment below ❤️
How do you end the project ?
um how do I weave in the ends
Thank you
I don't see where you put how many skeins we'll need for the blanket in the description. I'm probably missing it ...
Hi Gail, I ended up using apx 15 skeins for this blanket.
/Vibeke
But is it an 8mm needle or a 9mm?
9 mm❤️🫶
Can’t find the description of how much yarn to buy
How Big do you want it? For a baby blanket you Can get 300 gram and an adult blanket about 1200 gram. Maybe less.
I am completely done with my blanket but I cannot figure out how to end it. Is there an instruction on how to do that?
I have an other video where I show how to weave in ends ❤️😊
