This is the first time I haven't cried watching one of her videos. I'm so grateful that her family left her channel on so we can keep on learning from this sweet angel that was taken too soon.
May you have a beautiful place in heaven teaching crocheting to all the ladies up there. Thank you for all your help. I have done numerous blankets and I always go back to your channel. Bless your family.❤❤❤
I hope you are resting peacefully in crochet heaven and that you are continuing to teach all you meet there how to do these beautiful blankets. Bless your beautiful heart Melanie for helping us here on earth to practise what you have so patiently taught us. We will always be grateful ❤️
Such a beautiful young lady gone way too soon. Her work and teaching is fantastic. So grateful to her family for leaving her precious work up, for all to see. I’ll keep learning from Melanie. 😢
I'm finishing a baby blanket using the moss stitch but needed an easy border and once again Melanie came through for me! It's a bigger blanket for my 2 year old niece for Christmas. I'm always struck with the sadness of Melanie's passing when I get on her channel and the gratitude that her videos are still up. She remains my favorite crochet tutor!
I love hearing your voice dear Melanie❤ thank you for all the love you gave to us
Melanie we all miss you so very much! You are such a beautiful soul and person to have graced this earth. We forever miss you! Ham family, we pray continually for you. Please keep Melanie’s creative posts on UA-cam and online to keep spreading the LOVE !! Bless you all xxxooo
You’re so patient while explaining things and your voice is so calm I love your videos! Thank you so much, I’ve made about 8 of these blankets :)
This border is perfect for a boys blanket! Thank you! You have also kept the tutorial as imple and easy to follow. Much appreciated !
The blanket and edging was done beautifully, your talent and teaching is superb. Thank You
Oh my gosh I am so happy about this!!!! I have made 4 of these blankets from watching your video! It was the first crochet project I ever did!
I made 3 for friends, one for my daughter and I just started working on one for my daughter on the way!! I am so happy to add a border to the one I'm making now 😍😍😍 Thank you so much!!
Very nice! Nice and smooth with the single crochet for the initial round border. Lovely!
Such scooshy yarn, an adorable blanket and your directions are so clear. Thanks Melanie!

I love your attitude.....keep it simple & keep it fun!.
I am using variegated yarn and a plain shell edging gives the blanket zing...making 5 for older grandkids 2 to 8 years as cuddly lap.blankets for Christmas! Thank you Melanie...praying for your good health.
I'm making some baby blankets and I did a similar stitch for it just with 1 sc and 1 dc in one stitch and it gives it so much texture
Really nice blanket and border. Thank you!
Melanie, Your instructional videos are the BEST! I have been hoping and praying you are ok as I see you haven’t posted for several months.
Yay, thanks for this! I just finished this blanket this evening for my son and was looking through your channel for a border video that might work. Then you posted the exact video I need 😱
brit brat wow that was lucky huh?!! Happy stitching!
i know Im asking randomly but does any of you know a method to log back into an instagram account..?
I somehow forgot my login password. I would love any tricks you can give me!
@Quinn Messiah instablaster :)
@Easton Gordon I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Easton Gordon It worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thanks so much, you really help me out !
Was just starting my first blanket with the tutorial on the peach blanket and now I'm restarting w/ a smaller hook lol. Thank you for sharing the border. I'll tag you when I'm done with project 💜
Stephany Basedow I would love to see! I think I prefer the smaller hook too :) glad people can see both options though
I love your videos! I started my first blanket but needed to restart because it was turning into a rainbow shape! How do keep it straight!?
Melanie Ham Yes I love both looks of the blankets. For my daughter who I am making one for now, I like less space to keep her warmer at night. I plan to make the larger hook for my Mom. I also love your border blanket and plan to purchase the premium coarse for that :) Do you have a tutorial for a kids beanie hat with the two Pom Pom balls on top? Would love to learn that for this winter. 😁❌⭕️
Thanks for a wonderful tutorial
That’s beautiful 😮
😍YOU ARE ADORABLE!!!
Miss you Melanie I still can’t believe you’re not with us but how blessed are we to come on your channel and hear and see you. Thank you for teaching us your talent and skills. I always believe the Lord takes the best early to a greater mission in heaven. Bless your beautiful heart until we are all looking at you in that heavenly place ❤️
What happened to Melanie?
@@jacquelinerosser7777 she passed away from kidney cancer early last year. You can read much about her brave fight and the memorial and tribute on her channel. Such a tragedy
Super cute going shopping for yarn
Melanie gave you tried the magic knot to join yarn? I love it! I hate weaving in yarn in the middle of my blanket and have little pieces stick out.
Oh, found it. Awesome!
Great border.
i love your vids
Hey there! When you create the border do you use a smaller hook our use the bigger hook you started with? I made mine with an 11 hook.
Can you do a tutorial with the new bernat blanket self striping yarn? Cuz that'd be awesome 😁
I'm trying to sign up for your Melanie's Makers site but only have the option to sign in. What am I missing? Love your vids Melanie!!
RIP Melonie🙏🙏😪 you will be missed. 💔
Hi Melanie. I am almost completing my blanket but i am running out of super bulky yarns. Can i use a different weight for the border such as medium weight 4 yarns? Thanks.
How do I start a border after the blanket is done and no longer attached to a string of yarn?? I didn’t think to add a border until days after I finished my blanket. Please and thank you.
I could not get my blanket to lay flat because I crochet very tight, so I decided to go up a hook size when doing the border and it lays perfectly!!!
❤ oooooo l love it
Hello! This was a few years ago! I’m finishing up my blanket and looking at this video to do a border, however in this video, are you not doing two double crochets in the empty space like the original video ? Are you now just doing the double crochets into and actual stitch ?
Hi I’m the corner I only put 2 sc and it looks fine. Should I do 3 is it like absolutely necessary?
You are a good teacher Melanie.This was my first crochet project ever! Very easy to follow.Still, I made a huge mistake. The foundation chain side turned out shorter than the other side, so my blanket is not rectangular. Is my chain too tight at the beginning or the rest of my crochet too loose? I have read tha tit is advisable to use a bigger crochet needle for the foundation chain. Is this true? Anyway, I'm very happy with my first blanket and with what I have learned.
Maria Arroyo Cabre The best thing to do is to count your chain in the row every now and then. You probably have more stitches than in the original chain. They have plastic safety pin like markers. I put one for every 10 or 20 chain to keep track.
Melanie, I'm working on the purple and white blanket. My question is if I decided to do more than just 2 rows of border, do I start the next round in the same way as row 2?
For this blanket, did you not go through the spaces? Or did you skip stitches?
Trying to find the utube video that you did on C2C
How many yards of yarn do I need to make the border. I am making mine with a different color. Thank you in advance.
I want to add a ribbed border that is 4 stitches on either side and on both ends of the original pattern or for any baby blanket , do you have a pattern for that already ? Just trying to figure out how many extra stitches I need to add .
Christina Messina I seen that exact video of them using the rubbing of HDC in BLO I think it was all the way around. It was really neat. I’ll go back in my history to see if I can find it. If I do, I’ll post it right back here. 😊
👏❤
What color is the yarn you used?
how do i put a border on your Black and white chevron blanket
What color is this😍
Hey is this the same stitch that u used in the peach one?? Looks so different
It is the same stitch, she just used a smaller hook so it would be a little tighter stitch.
How many rows did you do before starting your border? I don’t see it in the pattern.
What brand hook is that?
Thank you
WOW! That is some thick yarn. What is it?
Melissa Noble it’s everywhere at Joann’s and Michael’s right now :) the bernat blanket yarn
Bernat baby blanket it’s on sale at Joann’s right now !
Thank you for the beautiful border, and thank you for not being on Ravelry.
I never could get the hang of the 'easy' blanket; I am back to see if there is a border I can learn to do
I had made 3 blankets with this ...
I’m confused as this is slightly different than the original vid? I made this and I’m sure stitches went in the chain spaces??🤔 I mean both lovely 😀👍🏼
As I sit here and read some of these comments, I now know the reason you don’t answer them all. I know, I know fellow crocheters. We were all beginners once! I’m in a silly mood and feel like laughing. Some of these are really good. Laugh or be like “what the heck?” 😂😂😂😂😂🥰🧶
RIP my dear....so sad... 😭
🤭🤭🤭🤭
This is titled BORDER to the Easy Crochet Baby Blanke" It took over 10 minutes to FINALLY get to the actual border and then it was jus a variation of the picot stitch. SMH.
