The Most Beautifully Simple Crochet Blanket I've Made - The Mixed Granny Stripe Tutorial
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 июл 2024
- I'm always looking for beautifully simple crochet stitch patterns and I think this might be my favourite! Possibly the most beautifully simple blanket I've made! It's a 2 row repeat which is ideal for absolute beginners too.
I've been asked many times if the 'Mix It Up' Granny Squares can be done in rows instead and the answer is YES! Here it is! A mix of traditional and 'solid' rows. Absolutely stunning!
You can use ANY yarn and just use whatever hook size your chosen yarn recommends. For the tutorial I am using Mandala Baby and a 4.5mm hook. My example piece at the start was made using yarn from Poundland (a U.K. shop) and a 4.5mm hook.

Thank you so much for the pattern and tutorial for this beautiful pattern!! I love the way you start a new row, instead of chaining one or two or three! I’m going to remember that! It looks much neater doing it the way you showed! Thanks again!
NORMA COLLINS FROM TEXAS, USA
Thanks so much Norma, I’m really glad you like the stitch and the chainless start 🥰🌸
You did such a great job with this! What a beautiful project! The edges are perfect! I especially love the method you use instead of chaining up at the beginning of a row! Genius! Thank you!
So glad that you like it! Thank you Jodie 🥰🌸
Thanks again for a new granny pattern Rebecca.
You’re very welcome! 🌸
I thought the v stich was my favourite, but this one is running close, thanking you 😊
This stitch looks just as lovely on the straight as it does in the round Rebekah thank you for showing us how 😊Amanda xx💞
Thank you Amanda! I agree, looks great both ways. 🥰🌸
I love this! It's a simple but lovely pattern. This is my favourite type of pattern when I just need to distress & not pay too close attention. Thank you!❤
Absolutely! I’m so glad that you like it ☺️🌸
I love your method of doing neat edges.Thank you.
Thank you Lakshmi, I’m so glad you like that method! 🌸
Thank you! I have found the perfect pattern for a special baby blanket❤.
Wonderful! 🌸
I love using the stacked sc at the beginning of dc rows. Very helpful with this pattern's look, too!
So glad you like it 🌸
I enjoyed this tutorial! I like the way you do the edges.
Thank you Karen! It really helps keep them super straight! 🌸🥰
@@BlossomCrochet I see that! I'm always learning!
Thank you, i shall be making a blanket in this stitch xx
Beautiful stitch pattern! Love it and will be using it to make a blanket for my great granddaughter! Thank you for sharing your excellent tutorial! 💕🤗
That’s so lovely to hear, I hope that she loves it 🥰🌸
Thanks Rebecca gorgeous stitch love it.💙💙
Thank you Deborah! 🥰
Beautiful stitches, great teacher ! Thank you. 😊
Thank you so much! 🌸🥰
Great explanations and tutorial. Love the edges. Blanket looks beautiful.
Thank you so much Tania! 🥰
I can't wait to try this, I have an afghan my great grandmother made which was passed down to me, I could never figure out what the stitches are exactly -- very solid, but also attractive -- this pattern has such nice even sides and looks beautiful with the granny clusters.
I have to choose some beautiful yarn and make this blanket next 💜
Beautiful stitch and fab tutorial as always. Thank you so much 😊🤗
Thanks so much Linda! 🌸
Another lovely tutorial. Thank you Rebekah 💙💙
Thank you so much 🌸🥰
Lovely stitch! I need to make a baby blanket and this will work nicely. 😊
Please do! I hope you love it 🥰
I like this. It’s seems easy and it looks nice.
It really is a nice easy one 🌸
This is so unique. I adore it! 🌈🌷🐝
Thank you! I’m so glad that you like it Jennie! 🥰
Lovely and easy❤️
This is such a wonderful stitch combo. I have started a blanket with Red Heart super Saver in turquoise ombre. It's going to be so pretty. I like this because it has texture but not bulky and lays flat and the spaces between the granny stitches are not very large, I think because the double crochet (us) holds it together nicely and gives it just enough drape. Thank you
Thank you, for another great pattern.🙏
Thank you so much ☺️ 🌸
Just gorgeous thank you 🥰🌸
Thanks so much as always Betty 🌸
I thought I recognised this yarn! It’s a lovely yarn from Poundland ❤
It certainly is! 🥰🌸
You did it again....Gorgeous❣❣
Aw thanks so much Shiela! 🥰
Beautiful Beautiful 🤩♥️
Thank you! 🌸🌸
Many thanks for this pattern, I finally found a design to do my vest/sweater.. Been looking for an horizontal not a vertical patterns as most are.. I am going to try with a hdc instead of dc [Canadian] it's my fav stitch.. I have done quite a few of your designs and always find something cool.. 🐦🤗
Thank you
You’re very welcome 🥰
Beautiful❤
So glad you like it, thank you Amy! 🌸
I love it
So glad! 🌸
I like my afghans to be 2 sided and so I crocheted 2 "solid" rows and one "cluster" row. Still easy, still pretty. And reversible.😊
Execellent idea
This is so beautiful thank you Rebecca ❤ Could you do a border for this please any ideas would be lovely 🥰
Super 👌
So glad you like it 🌸
Can this one be done in any yarn and matching hook size ? It looks like a nice one to do a blanket , thank you ❤
Yes absolutely! It makes a wonderful blanket! 🥰🌸
@@BlossomCrochet thank you , I'm going to enjoy doing this pattern 😊💜
❤❤❤❤❤!
🌸🥰
It's gorgeous I'm gonna make a wrap and a blanket would you put a border round please
Love this stitch for blankets. Looks so fast and easy. Do you have written patterns for sale?
Thank you so much. I’ve not got a written pattern, sorry. 🌸
Can you use Aran or chunky yarn for this blanket ? Thank you x
Yes you can! You can use absolutely any yarn that you like ♥️
How many chain stitches did you use
I've just finished a little blanket following this pattern and wonder if you have a tutorial for a simple border I could crochet along the edges? Thanks
That's wonderful to hear! I have two 'go to' borders which I'll share links for and they look amazing on ANY blanket 🌸
Moss Stitch Border: ruclips.net/video/HhPRHKNymfU/видео.html
Simple Frill Border: ruclips.net/video/gnZC82tg6oM/видео.html
I can't wait to try this stitch! I'm currently finishing up another project right now. If I want to change colors, where is the best point to do that?
I’d like to know this to if anyone has any advice or if you worked it out? :)
This looks great! I’ll make a blanket in this pattern, but would it be possible for the double crochet row after the starting chain to be a treble row instead?
I've been given some Blossom chunky wool, would that be ok to use for this pattern.
I would think so Jane! Although sometimes that type of yarn variegation works best with ‘shorter’ stitches that look a little more like knitting… That being said, one of my favourite blankets I’ve ever made was using that yarn and doing treble stitches - so I guess it’s just try and see! 🌸🥰
Do you go through both the loops or just the front one?
Thank you for this tutorial , I have just finished my blanket , what border would you suggest ,
You’re welcome 😊 I’m so happy to hear you’ve made one! I am a sucker for a simple Moss Stitch border (I have a tutorial for this on my channel if you need it) but I think any border you like the look of would work anyway 🌸🥰
I have a couple cakes of variegated cakes don’t know what to do with them, they are #4 cotton blend, would they look nice in this granny stitch. .
What border do you recommend?
Hi, absolutely love this pattern. However as a beginner I just don’t seem to be able to get it right. I keep gaining stitches. Have ripped it 3 times now😢
Am I doing something wrong or do the 2 trebles in first and last stitch on the cluster row make this happen? I’m at a loss, please help 😂
how many chains would you start with please?
Just found your channel, love your podcasts, i am in middlesbrough north east of england. I am a new podcaster my channel is loopy loop ❤
How much yarn is needed please
It depends what size blanket you want to make, and what weight yarn you’re planning to use… for example I used 4 balls of this dk for my baby blanket and then 1 further ball for a border 🌸
In the second row of granny clusters I find my pattern is going off ie not sitting on top of another any ideas what's wrong
The one thing about using the stacked single crochet (dc) at the beginning is that the very last place to put a stitch (in the row above) is not easy to see. After finishing that first stacked stitch, put a stitch marker in the first chain behind the hook. It will seem like it is just part of the side of the stacked stitch, but it is where your last stitch goes when you come back across. Hope that wasn't too confusing. I use this a lot and have made all the mistakes 😂
Thanks for the tip😊
1st😂
Very quick there Dawn! 🥰🌸
