Hooked By TJ
I started crocheting over 40 years ago. My Grandma Cressman gave me a crafting book one Christmas. I did a bit of embroidery, tried knitting, but fell in love with crochet!
In recent years I have tested several patterns for various designers and groups.
Current designer's I work with are Iman VanDerKraan of the Haaksteek group, BeBaBlanket, ItWasYarn (Kate Veselunka), Hester of MoYa Yarns, Melinda Miller of MoCrochet. I also work with and test for Sonja VanWyk and Carolyn of The Purple Poncho.
I live in Canada with my best friend and husband, and our 3 "children" (two of which are adults now), and we have a Jack Russell dog who will sometimes "speak" in a video!!

I really enjoyed this part. Round 80 makes them look like little tulips.
How did you attach the second colour? Just tie with a knot to the thread from colour 1? 😊
@@660jolanda yes. Thats how I do it
Time stamps Round 110: 0:18 Round 111: 3:08 Round 112: 7:45 Thank you for these videos!💜
I love it and gonna give it a try thanku
Thanks i got hung up on that stitch round 20 . I do like to complicate things lol but now that ive seen it worked its "easy peesy" 😂
I can only seem to find double ended hooks that are either .5mm difference in size or the same size on both ends. Is that likely to work alright? What brand of hooks did you use for yours?
The .5 difference is perfect. Mine were a random inexpensive brand from Amazon. I had to play with the size of hooks with this brand to find what met gauge and a good fit…..
@@hookedbytj Ah! Wonderful, thank you so much!

This video just showed up for this beautiful afghan. I am confused at what happened at round 8. What happened to the yarn you were using?
@@Sedona8101 maybe it wasnt stated clearly enough but in round 7 just for video I used a different colour so you could see stitch placement better. Then I re-worked it off camera in my preferred colour. So that’s what you see in round 8 then
Thank you so much. I really Love your Work Here.
Gorgeous blanket! ❤

Hi and welcome! I wish I could help with that but Unfortunately I can’t control what languages are available. That is something UA-cam provides so you would need to ask them 😊
@@hookedbytj Thank you
thank you tanıa😊
Ellerinize sağlık çok güzel olmuş lütfen Türkçe alt yazılı olursa çok sevinirim teşekkürler
Thank you Tania, I could never have made this stunning and gorgeous blanket without your wonderful tutorials
Thực sự quá đẹp. Rất rất cảm ơn vì cô đã nhiệt tình chỉ dạy từng chút . Rất tỉ mỉ và kĩ càng. Tôi sẽ cố gắng học mặc dù tôi đã làm sai rất nhiều.
I’m having trouble finding a 3 weight yarn that has the colours I want to use, do you think Caron simply soft would be too heavy ? I know they say it’s on the lighter side of a 4 weight. Also if you think it would work, what size hook would you recommend ?
@@smilely771 hi there. For sure it will work!! Many people choose worsted/4 weight yarn. You can use the recommended hook size that will be in the label, which I believe is 5mm. I know I crochet loosely so I tend to use a 4.5mm with Caron simply soft. You will need about 20-25% more yarn of each colour than is given in the intro… I don’t have those exact numbers with me right now
@@hookedbytj thank you I wanted to use an acrylic/ cotton or bamboo mix yarn, but can’t find any that offers the colours.
I’m in Canada, what weight of yarn would this be ?
@@smilely771 hello! I’m also Canadian 😊. Dk weight was used
@@hookedbytj thank you. I love this blanket and I have a daughter named Sarah 🙂
Your work is just beautiful!!
Excellent direction. Thank you! Mine turned out beautifully.
This looks amazing...... I’ve just got to get the yarn to do this beauty.
Hi, can I make this pattern with weight 4 acrylic yarn would it look the same or does it have to be weight 2 yarn? Thank you
You can use any weight yarn-just use the hook size recommended for that yarn. You will need more yarn than pattern states and it will be larger in final size as well so just make as many repeats until your desired final size.
@@hookedbytjHi thank you so much for replying. I actually had one more question I thought that since it is thicker yarn that I would need less than the pattern states could you explain a little more? Because from what I searched in google it says that with thicker yarn you need less yarn and with thinner yarn more yarn. Thank you!
@@michellezapata8646 if you were making a granny square that is 4”, you would indeed use less yarn of thicker brand. It would also be fewer rounds. If you wish to make all rounds of this pattern the final size will be larger and you would need more balls of yarn. So depends what you want. A certain size? Or complete the entire pattern?
@@hookedbytj Hi, thank you for replying again yes that makes sense thank you for explaining!
Bayıldım Tania. Çok çok teşekkürler severek örüyorum. TÜRKİYE den selamlar😊🖐
Just Beautiful !

But I love the stitching...I may make it!!
I would not mix different yarns together
Fantastic job
It is a Festive National Day here in Argentina, so I expend my morning vegging out with your wonderful work! Knowing that I start the project but don't have the consistency to keep it on... I wish I inherited my grandmother's patience! Maybe someday... Anyway it is wonderful to watch Tania💕
I love it as a snowflake to hang on the Christmas Tree but also as a coaster maybe with some more rows. We'll see how it works out! Thank you Tania💕. Claudia from Buenos Aires City - Argentina
Love that you mirror it for lefties
Che meraviglia ❤❤
may i ask why the double magic circle?
Sometimes I find the usual magic circle works loose and the double one doesn’t
@@hookedbytj ah, got it. thank you 🙂
ı am waıtıng next one 😊
Dank je wel. Deel 4 af, had het niet zonder jou gekund. Op naar deel 5.
I should have watched this first, I'm going to start again...
???In this design it looks like there are square tiles around the blanket. Are these separate tiles which need to be sewn onto the body of the blanket, or are they stitched as part of the total blanket… no sewing. (Hope this makes sense.)???
No sewing! Stitched in rounds, alternating colours (no yarn ends righter)
Bellissimo progetto. Grazie Tania Leis
Thanks from a lefty😊😊
Ik ben net begonnen, maar dankzij deze duidelijke video, gaat het fijn. Dank je !!
As this video is part of a paid pattern, I believe it should be reshot to include the oversite in row 5 and hiding the stitches from color changes to the beginning instead of starting in row 6.
she waits until row 6 to tell us how to hide the threads when you are changing colors, so now I have to do all over!!!
Sorry you’re disappointed. If I’d shown it right at the beginning it makes it too difficult for many first learning this technique. Also, many watch the entire video for these “getting started” videos before actually starting so then you would know. Unfortunately no way to make a video that pleases everyone so I did my best according to what this designer asked me to show…
In row 5 she completely misses the starting corner stitches and goes to the corner front loop double. For more novice crocheters' this may be misleading.
Corner stitches were mentioned when looking at the chart for round 5. No different than previous rounds so it has been shown/established how to do those corner stitches already.
Bom dia 😊 trabalho maravilhoso!! Parabéns ⚘️ e muito obrigada por nos ensinar. Mesmo tendo um pouco de dificuldade em acompanhar 😊 mas sinto o maior prazer em fazer junto com você essa peça lindíssima. Peço a Deus que te abençoe muito hoje e sempre.
How beautiful! I wish I could put colors together and they looked this pretty! ❤
Thank you for the videos. As long as I can see a close-up of what you are doing, it's all good. Some stitches I can't grasp from written instructions, there are so many stitches now than before, so thank you again.
Hermoso❤
Grazie per i sottotitoli in italiano grazie mille mi può dire che filato potrei adoperare.
Any you like. I used a Dk weight yarn. Follow links to written pattern to find lots more I fo
