Thank you Allison my goodness this is gorgeous you explain so clearly too, it's.much easier than the other way, I have Wips, everywhere and it's all your fault ha ha, your great Allison keeping us all busy in these times, hugs,🌸🌸🌸
I could listen to your accent all day long 🥰. As far as your tutorials...I find I am able to u d’état and your instructions so easily. U r my fave. Thank you for sharing your skills.
I’m glad you have mentioned about the starting chains shrinking up once the stitch is worked. It’s a super helpful tip for beginners to know. Lots of beginner tutorials don’t mention about the fact that chaining in your multiples doesn’t guarantee your work to be that width once the stitches are worked depending on the stitches. I remember when I started years and years ago doing a chevron blanket and it turned out so much smaller. I wasn’t told the peaks and valleys would change the end result. I was so upset. I didn’t let it go to waste though, I turned it into a pillow for my daughter to take camping lol 😂 Great video.
Another interesting effect in making this particular Jacob's Ladder pattern: first make sure you plan for an odd number of vertical columns. Work the body of the fabric in the same way as the instructions. However then... 1) loop and twist the odd-numbered columns from bottom to top 2) loop and twist the even-numbered columns from top to bottom 3) complete the top and bottom "border" rows, alternating the manner in which the loops are anchored The color interest is that the loops change direction every other row.
I just discovered you and your videos. I'm already making one of your blankets. I will be making more of your patterns as I like you accent and your ideas. Thank you for posting!
Thanks for the great great tutorial!!! What a simple way to do the Jacobs ladder stitch. I’m using the stitch to make the pockets on a C2C shawl I’m making. Thank you so much for sharing. I hope you have a fabulous day!! 💚😊💚😊
I watched my mom crochet a big white blanket with faux cables and Jacob's ladders when I was seven. I was so sad this last year when i found out she didn't have it anymore. I guess a twenty three year old white blanket might not be so white anymore.
Alison can you do a tutorial on the chain length please.. when you said you can add more or less if you have not made the correct chain stitch please I would love to see it xx
Another fantastic video Alison! You explain everything so clearly and that yarn is beautiful. I will definitely be trying this out as it's such a lovely stitch and so much easier done this way. Thanks again and I really hope you reach your million subscribers. Your channel is the best! 🏆❤
Thank you so much for this... I had started a Jacob's ladder last year and got aggravated and put it down. I will rip it out and start over using this pattern instead! So clear are your instructions! I wont have to rip out and recount as I did on the other one. What a blessing you are Alison!
I was a bit nervous for how it would turn out as I followed along but it looks so cute at the end, thank you for this tutorial, you’re a great teacher!! 🥰
Wow, amazing results, and this actually looks like it might even be fun to do for something really different. I can see it giving wonderful texture to a plain color, but only after I’ve successfully completed a multi-color to see better how the stitches work.
I've got a new granddaughter due late June early July and I've been fussing over patterns but I believe I have found the one😁. I don't know about that twist though😂, I'll do well to do the regular Jacob's ladder🤣🤣. I am going to try it first. I believe even a leftie like me can do this. We'll see😁. Great tutorial Alison. Tyfs God bless you
Debbie you only twisting the loop so you can tread the other one through thats all give it a try it is easy honestly. This works up so fast its worth the time it takes to do the loops
Love the blanket, would like to make it at a time, when I don't have anything else to do. Doing the end a little time consuming, since I have tentanitis in my thumbs, hopefully I spelled it right. I will be making it, anyway it's so pretty.
Oh! Alison dear what a lovely tutorial and the colours are gorgeous. You always up come with such amazing patterns, and you are a very good teacher. Thank you so much for sharing your skills with us all. God bless you and Muttley and keep you both safe. 💐🤗🙋♀️
Thank you so much Alison!! This helps me tremendously!! I was so lost on the original ... you are such a gem and I can’t wait to start my Jacobs ladder!!🧶❤️
I've never done a Jacob's Ladder blanket before, can't wait to try this😁😊! It looks easy and as you say-it's really pretty. Looks unisex for a baby blanket since my friends daughter & son in law haven't found out the sex of their baby yet. Next ultrasound they will.
Thank you now I know why mine always looked horrible.. lol I never twisted and it came out very uneven so I gave up .. I’m going to try again .. thank you 🙏
Hello Ms Alison You are such a lovely lady/teacher. Could you please update the brand of this lovely yarn. Thanks so much and have a great new year!! My greetings from Corfu
My son just requested I make him a blanket in black, white, and gray so, I was thinking of making a Buffalo plaid. But, his name is Jacob so, I think I will combine the two and see how that works out.
I want to know if I may ask your advice. I'm busy with a scarf and I want to know how long is the standard size for a scarf. I always make it to short or to long. I'm very sorry if I over step to ask you this but I straggled with the length. Thank you for helping and hope I don't over step. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🦴🦴
course your not overstepping do the chain bit TWICE as wide as you need it. The length is not affected just the width it starts out and how much it pulls in when finished so if you want a scarf 10inches wide do your ladder part 20 inches wide it should be around the 10 inch when all looped up. As for the length try googling average scarf length and work your to that length that should give you a length you would buy in the shops and should not be too long or too short.
its much quicker with both you still have to loop the loops so doing a chain is much quicker to crochet then just twist and loop together, i did it slower to show beginners how to loop them, when your on your own you can really do this quick.
In the video i say my chain blanket size is 60 inches It was 30 inches wide and shrinks in to nearly 15inch *** sorry for the mistake.
Gorgeous! It’s even beautiful before you do up the chains. Thanks for another great video.
Alison lovely as ever ❤️🧶my next project
Thank you for simplifying it. I can't wait to try it.
I love this way of Jacobs ladder !!💖💖
Thanks patsy you should try it its fab

I watched my mom crochet a big white blanket with faux cables and Jacob's ladders when I was seven. I was so sad this last year when i found out she didn't have it anymore. I guess a twenty three year old white blanket might not be so white anymore.
my mum made them too, from scraps of yarn.
What a beautiful blanket! I just need to finish a few others so I can start this one.
Please do!
Alison can you do a tutorial on the chain length please.. when you said you can add more or less if you have not made the correct chain stitch please I would love to see it xx

Hello Ms Alison
You are such a lovely lady/teacher.

Thanks so much and have a great new year!!

That will be fab
👍
On the multicolor blanket did you change yarn to get different colors or the yarn was already in different color multicolor yarn?
it was already color change but you can if you want cut and start new colors each row if you want.
Swet thanks ❤😊
You're welcome 😊

@@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel thank you so much. This help me a lot thank you my dear friend. You are one in a million. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🦴🦴
Do you perhaps have a written pattern for this? Thank you.
Hey Alison the smaller the hook smaller the whoops ? What hook did you use ?
a 4.5mm use the hook size your yarn label states
I can't find the bell
next to the subscribe button its named notifications
Sorry going to fast for me to see and understand when you are hooking all together around the edges
💜
This looks like way more time consuming than the regular jacobs ladder blanket.
its much quicker with both you still have to loop the loops so doing a chain is much quicker to crochet then just twist and loop together, i did it slower to show beginners how to loop them, when your on your own you can really do this quick.
Couldn’t u also loop and twist your ladder with your crochet hook as long as u twist!
yes you can
Hi your saying treble crochet but your doing double crochet. Which is it?
Kelly in the UK its a treble crochet and in the USA they say Double crochet. Same stitch different terms.
Love this so much!
Love this version of Jacob's Ladder:) Thank you so much for your wonderful tutorials!
Glad you enjoy it!
