  • I made this blanket using 2 skeins of Red Heart Super Saver Ombre. Each skein is 482 yards. This blanket measures 36" square, although you can make it however big you want just by repeating rounds 5-7. Your results may vary due to hook size, gauge, or if you use a different yarn. Below is a list of timestamps and links for your convenience.
    Round 1 - 02:34
    Round 2 - 05:25
    Round 3 - 11:09
    Round 4 - 17:11
    Round 5 - 24:49
    Round 6 - 32:42
    Round 7 - 40:48
    Repeat Rounds 5-7

    I didn't like crochet videos until I found Fiber Spider. His voice is so soothing and he is so patient, I just love making his projects.

    First of all, yasssss! I will be making this. That ombré works up so awesome with this pattern. Secondly, I watch too many of your videos. My 4 year old just started humming along with your music intro 😂😅🤣😆

    You're right, it is a mindful/less pattern. I generally prefer a 1 or 2 row repeat, but figured a 3 row repeat would exercise this 70 year old brain (which they say we need). I've gone through 2 or 3 tutorials trying to find the one I wanted to work on next. After almost ripping it out & looking at it several times, you won--I'm going with this one. I'll let you know if I perservered.

    Allrighty...I ❤️ this one so much,it s just like you sad,it's a kind of mindfulness to crochet this project. And I ❤️ the way you are doing this, including all of of your crocheting video's.The way you chat with us,your calm and kind voice is guiding us through the project. This is about the 6th project of yours that I'm making and this one won't absolutely not be the last one. So, dear Fiber Spider, please continue the good work and in my opinion, you are one of my favorites!! Greets and hugs from the Netherlands🤗😘

    I love all your videos and tutorials! You make things out of yarn that people can afford and is easy to take care of. I have been watching a number of podcasts and am getting very tired of the fancy smancy yarn they use (marino, alpaca, camel etc.) It all costs way to much and you have to hand wash and lay flat to dry. Who has the time for all that? Thanks again for being so down to earth, kind and talented and sharing your talent with us all. Oh ya... and enabling us all to be distracted and knit or crochet. lol! Your the best!

I've been a member of the Fiber Spider community for years now and you're far and away one of my very favorites!! Thanks for all you do for us!!! 👍❤️😻

    Totally awesome and adaptable pattern. I decided to turn after every row after the first one, only did half of the corner space, went around and did the other half of the corner stitch and hdc to join. I always finished and started in the corner. So far it’s great.

    I love your videos. You may just be my favorite crocheter on UA-cam. I do have two slight modifications for this though. On the front post stitches, you can do a treble instead for the height and on the corners, you can do only half of the corner to start to avoid the slip stitches which can come out messy with variegated or ombré yarn

    I found it easier to use fptr around the new lonely dc stitches. It allows me to crochet a little faster, and I don't have to worry about the fp being too short and then my beautiful square not laying flat properly.😆 Lion Brand Big Scoop Ice Cream yarn works really nice with this as would any ombré yarn or a solid color yarn. Each one would highlight the texture nicely!🌻
