SO EASY! Corner-to-Corner HDC stitch pattern!
Corner-to-corner stitch pattern is fantastic for everyone, especially using half-double crochet. Perfect for beginners! This is the stitch I used for my very first large project and I come back to it again and again - if I could do it, so can you!
Use C2C easily for any size triangle, square, or rectangle shaped project. Stay to the end and I show you the simple variation for C2C with double crochet stitch.
For the blanket shown here I used 2200 yards of a DK weight yarn, using 6 rounds of half-double crochet stitches for the border (put 3 HDC stitches in each corner stitch when you go round).
Blanket size: 50" x 55"
Yarn: Cakes Melange, by Ice Yarns (Turquoise & Grey colorway)
Hook: 5.5 mm

    I've done a number of dc C2C baby blankets. I had never considered a hdc C2C. It seemed to be the perfect stitch for a laghan I wanted to make. I am beginning to decrease one side of that lapghan and am most happy with the fabric it is creating. The 3d stitch pattern is wonderful. The resulting fabric is soft and cushy. I don’t know if I will do another C2C in dc again. Thanks for sharing this version of C2C.

      thanks for letting me know, I'm not sure why not though of course it works for me since it's my project so i can't find where it's going wrong just yet. The same information is in the video description so you're not missing much except saving it on Ravelry if you use it.

      ​@@JuliesWorldCrochetThe pictures of the finished blanket is showing but no pattern is shown on how to make it. I saved the page to my favorites and put in the notes to go to your UA-cam channel for how to make it. I like the way you just do two chains when you start decreasing instead of slip stitching up the side of the block to start the row. I love the colors of that yarn. Thanks for sharing.

The Corner to Corner blanket is lovely and handsome, a blanket certainly befitting a gentleman 😊. I love your idea 💡 of doubling up the yarns for one blanket, which provides extra squishy softness. Also, it must be said that your Waffle stitch blanket is simply gorgeous. I ❤️ love your beautiful blankets and i am sure they will make the receiver's heart smile with great joy. Keep up the great work 👍

The ombre colour is a lovely delight and the scarf set you are making for your friend will be greatly treasured and appreciated i am sure. I look forward to seeing your amazing top with this yarn.❤ There are so many favourite musical 🎶 tunes, i adore, but for a good bye playlist the following four tracks would be a must. Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen, The River of Dreams by Billy Joel, Saved by Bob Dylan and of course Beautiful Day by U2.❤😊not sure what order but those would have to be there for sure.

    • @JuliesWorldCrochet
      @JuliesWorldCrochet 5 місяців тому

      Hallelujah - yes! That's on my list too, and I also love Beautiful Day. Of all things, I've never heard Saved, I just listened now and it's a good one. I want a good blues song myself and haven't found *just the right one yet. I'm glad you shared, it's so nice to learn about other people and be open to variety in the world :) Thanks.

    Hi Julie

  • @FireLakeCreations
    @FireLakeCreations 5 місяців тому

    I do not have aphantasia, but neurological things fascinate me too. I've never heard about people in dreams being only people you've seen before, but I do dream a lot with people I know and celebrities sometimes, so I guess they fill out the "cast" so to speak. My mind's eye is usually 3D and color, depending on what I'm thinking about, and can include my other senses as well, such as smell or taste or touch. I've done arts and crafts my entire life, starting with latch hook (taught by my grandma). I did a ton of counted cross stitch as a teen/young adult, and then spent another decade or two on scrapbooking/card making. I picked up loom knitting several years ago, but it was hard on my hands/wrists and I wanted to make garments more easily, so I learned crochet via the Woobles with my husband in Feb 2023 and haven't looked back since! I crochet nearly every day. My next favorite artistic expression is painting (I painted my logo).

    • @JuliesWorldCrochet
      @JuliesWorldCrochet 5 місяців тому

      That's so interesting to me, I can't imagine what the experience is like to 'see' in your head, thanks for telling me. you know I didn't even consider the color/no color thing but now I know why - it's neither. I KNOW what the dream is and what color things are, but not because I see them in my head. We have a bunch in common - I did cross-stitch when I was young, too, and spent a number of years with scrapbookng. I've never really tried knitting though. Your logo looks great, I love the sky. I love painting but I struggle so hard to do it, especially perspective, and I'd never be able to create what I want for my own logo.

    Your blanket looks beautiful, and i love the variety of stitches you have used. I am looking forward to seeing 👀 your wonderful blanket once you have the trim completed. I sometimes use a round plastic loom to make things, and once in a while, i will take out some threads and a needle and do needle 🪡 tatting but my heart is with crocheting. I find i am able to be more creative with my crocheting. It was great as always visiting with you and seeing your amazing progress on the lovely blanket 😊 ❤

Im learning as I go, and am quickly learning what I don’t like. Currently, I’m making a small afghan using red heart super saver & I’m not a fan. I do have higher expectations for the ice yarns!

    I love your blanket ❤ it is beautiful. I like windy weather as well. Living in the small town of Wawa, Ontario, we are on the northern shores of Lake Superior, and the wind constantly blows off that great lake, keeping us cool 😎 and refreshed 😀. For favourite movies 🎬 i always enjoy "Fiddler on the Roof, "not only is it an excellent story, but it's musical score can't be beaten. You have inspired me to attempt making a textured blanket. Perhaps another subject 🤔 you could chat about might be songs 🎵. I have so many favourite songs . Great work on your wonderful channel ❤ It's most enjoyable spending time with you. 😊

    • @JuliesWorldCrochet
      @JuliesWorldCrochet 5 місяців тому

      Thank you 💜This is the nicest comment. And I'm so glad because I've never seen Fiddler on the Roof and other than knowing it's successful, I've never known anyone who's seen it (I don't think). But I really love trying new things and the whole point was if it's a movie that strikes you, reaches you, stays with you - then you're recommending a worthwhile experience so of course I'll try it, a little bit of life enrichment. I hope you do try the blanket, it was so much easier/faster than I expected. As soon as the rest of my yarn comes in I can finish the border and I'll have a tutorial out asap for this design. Thanks much for watching!

    That is a beautiful blanket, Julie ❤😊 Yarnspirations is a great place for free patterns. Do you also buy your yarn from them? I usually order from them, and they have lots of beautiful yarns. We are readers in our household as well. My husband often reads 📚 to me while i crochet. At this time, he is reading "Little Women " by Louisa May Alcott. It's an oldy but goodie book 📖 all about sisters and growing up. ❤

  • @StirringUpString
    @StirringUpString 6 місяців тому

    You're a fantastic teacher! You explain things super well, it's very easy to understand! I did notice one thing however, you crocheted into the back loop instead of both of the loops. This isn't a problem if you're wanting the look that it gives (that line at the bottom of every other row), however it could make things look a little funky depending on the pattern you're doing. (mainly plushies) It's a really common mistake, so I thought I'd let you know! I do love doing BLO (back loop only) with sc stitches to make ribbings for shirts. It makes a really nice stretchy, almost knit-like fabric.

    • @JuliesWorldCrochet
      @JuliesWorldCrochet 6 місяців тому

      Thank you! I really wanted to put all the bits that helped me learn into one video, even if it's a little longer than typical videos. And I can see how it might look like I did BLO but I promise I didn't, I think it looks like it because I kind of squeeze the yarn when I'm working - I'll have to mention it for the next one so no one's confused, glad you pointed it out. Thanks for joining me!

  • @StirringUpString
    @StirringUpString 6 місяців тому

    I love all the patterns you've made, but especially that second to last project, the blanket. The color scheme on that was gorgeous! I personally use variegated yarn as accents to projects. For instance, I will use a multicolored pink plush yarn with a white cow to make a cupcake themed cow, or a multicolored blue/pink/purple yarn with all the same solid colors when making a mermaid tail blanket to look like scales, etc. (I've done that last one and it comes out GORGEOUS) I also personally sell my crochet and have my own business doing it right now, but I plan on making a ton of blankets to use up yarn I collected years ago and then donating tubs of them to churches in my area. Those places are always FREEZING. You could also crochet things like cancer hats or newborn hats or newborn burial hats/gowns for hospitals. That's another goal of mine!

      That's lovely, there's a number of good places to donate (upcoming I'm doing a child's blanket for Project Linus). On the variegated yarn - I totally agree, I've liked it best as an accent in my pieces. I think it's a me thing, I don't have that extra-creative design eye to make variegated yarn work like I imagine in my head. Maybe as I keep improving I'll get better at that too.

      @@JuliesWorldCrochet exactly! I feel like the variegated yarn makes it look too crowded.

      My Grammy tried teaching me to knit every summer and it just never took the same way I enjoy crochet. Maybe one day, but it's not today. :)

    Love the shawl and the cowl. Can you share the name of the patterns? Have a nice crafty week.

      I wish I could. I've lost my notes for those pieces and made them before I planned a channel. As soon as I find them I'll absolutely be sharing them and put it in the description. thanks!
