Not only is this a beautiful baby blanket, it has to be the most entertaining crochet I have worked on in many years. Your talent is extraordinary! I purchased the pattern so that I have it to fall back on. I plan to purchase the book suggestion to go with this to complete the gift. Thank you for sharing your talent.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this pattern!! Your baby blanket is gorgeous. I'm going to order my yarn today and can't wait to start it. I subscribed to your site and look forward to seeing your other patterns. ps...this is my 1st comment to anyone so pls know I'm honest with my comment. THANK YOU
Love this blanket, I'm making it now! I'm newer at crocheting, and I keep getting 122 instead of 121 stitches in my blanket. Will the star stich be effected by this when I get to that point, or is being off by 1 stich not that big of a deal?
@@mindayyy12 i’m glad you’re enjoying the blanket. Unfortunately, yes, the star stitch will be affected by stitch count, so before you go any farther, I recommend going back to see where you missed that stitch. I’m sorry!
I think a slow color change yarn like Mandala could work (assuming you get the medium weight version, not DK, but I would shy away from variegated as it would hide the detail of the stitches.
I am getting lost in the border stitches, I can’t tell where exactly I should be doing the single crochet for each row. Do you have a tutorial for that? I see the video mentions border but doesn’t show it. Also do you recommend a tutorial for weaving in the ends?
I don’t have a video tutorial for this blanket for working in the border, but if you go to the written pattern, found free on my blog, there are photos and written directions to help with the border. It’s linked in the video description or click here: www.hooksbookswanderlust.com/2022/06/23/evren-baby-blanket/
Thanks, I purchased the tutorial on Etsy and I’m excited to get started once my yarn arrives next week. I’ve been practicing the basic stitches, and so far the border and getting the treble stitches to pop out are my weak spots. I checked the tutorial and found it a little bit hard to see the MC SC border stitches with ecru on ecru, but it was more clear for the CC rows with hazelnut on Ecru.

@@kelseygulu I can see where the ecru on ecru would be difficult to differentiate. I’ll have to see if I can edit the photos in a way that highlights stitch placement better. But in the meantime, use the rules of thumb that were in that written tutorial and just do your best to make sure that it lays flat. If your edge wants to curve into a C shape, then you likely don’t have enough stitches, and if the edge ends up ruffling, then you’ve got too many. Borders are not an exact science, because we all have different tensions, etc. Just do your best to keep it straight and flat. My contact information is in the pattern, if you want to send me pictures of your work if you’re having problems and I can try and help you. ♥️
@clfisher2011 I would love to see your finished Queen size blanket. I am very new to crocheting but I love this pattern and want to make one for myself. ❤

Aww you made my day! I hope you share a picture of your blanket when you finish it! ♥️♥️♥️
Great idea about the stitch marker !!
Glad you like that!
I get off count a lot so I place a stitch marker every 20 chains. So for 60 chains I will have 3 stitch markers. Otherwise I will just get lost.
@@maryannstout7600 That’s really smart!
I'm do the same with the stitch markers except I just leave every 25.. If not I'm triple counting and the still not sure.. lol.
Right?! It helps, doesn’t it? 🙌
Very nice 👌 thanks
Glad you like it! ♥️

I’m glad you like it!
I’m new to this , how do I find your vlog for the free pattern please ? I really like the textures and your colour choices too 😊
Here you go! Hope you find lots of fun things to make! www.hooksbookswanderlust.com/2022/06/23/evren-baby-blanket/
Do you think a varigated or ombre yarn would look good or would it muddy up a obscure the stitches?

Do you know approximately how many chains and how much yardage of each yarn to make a queen size??
Assuming a queen width of 90”, approximately 315 sts (+1 for the foundation chain), assuming you meet gauge :)
@@HooksBooksWanderlust so would I just maybe triple the yardage on everything? Sorry I don’t try to alter pattern sizes often 😅
@@clfisher2011 it’s a lot of math, so I get it. Using quick calculations, I’d say yes, triple the amount would get you there with some leftover.
@clfisher2011 I would love to see your finished Queen size blanket. I am very new to crocheting but I love this pattern and want to make one for myself. ❤
Do you have a place to share our finished blankets! Instagram? FB?
Either! You can find me in both places as @hooksbookswanderlust if you’d like to tag me ♥️ I can’t wait to see!
