    I made one of these blankets, but I didn't like the idea of repeating the same color pattern over the entire thing. So I thought it would be fun to use dice to decide what color the next row would be. I got 7 colors of yarn and used an 8 sided die, so each color was assigned a number and 8 was a free choice. I allowed myself to re-roll though if i really didn't like it, and I also didn't want the same color to repeat for more than 2 rows. But I love how it turned out and really want to make another one the same way

      That's so fun! I made a lap throw out of scraps of yarn a few winters ago where my only rule was that I had to alternate between the solid and variegated yarn. I would crochet until I ran out and then I would use the next ball. It made a (I'll be honest unexpectedly) very pretty and fun lap throw.

      i’m prolly not gonna make this blanket, BUT, i did just order about 25 skeins of each a different color. had no idea what kind of striped to do and your roll method is suchhhh a great idea. relieves a lot of stress of picking colors lol i’ll prolly write a number on each label on the skeins and write them on lil papers to draw from a bowl. thank you for the idea!

    I used Caron Cakes and didn't worry about being "matchy matchy" - just let the colours fall as they came out of the cake, regardless of where in the round I was - using the 12-Point Ripple. Five cakes per blanket. 3 days per blanket, 5 blankets, while sitting at the lake. Any star blanket is beautiful. Now I want to try this one.

    I started making one of these a few months back when the weather was chilly here. I think I got through like 20 hours of audiobooks while working on it. It was very nice and cozy to have it in my lap when it was cold but as the weather got warmer I put it on hold because I was sweating buckets by the time I'd finished a round. I'll definitely pick it back up again when it gets colder, it's definitely a fun project to do.

    • @julescraftfolk
      @julescraftfolk  4 місяці тому +10

      You’re so right. This is definitely a winter project. It’s great as it starts to get bigger and it can keep you warm while you crochet. The one downside is the cats were always sitting on it so it was tricky to get anything done!

    I've made a number of Betty's original 6-day blankets. I'm a slow crocheter as well as the blankets where the first patterns I made after a 30 year time off from crocheting. However the 5 blankets I did make for toddlers and newborns came out amazing and the parents loved them. I love how in the original blanket you could change where you changed colors so the pattern looked completly different.
    I'm so glad I found your channel. I've subscribed and look forward to watching more.

I did it in a flat black, sparkly black and favorite stripe. All red heart. I want to do it again in cream or Aran and a sparkly white and the retro stripe color way by red heart!!!

    I feel I don't see lots of yarn workers mix wool and acrylics, and even different weights. And I personally do this often, if it is for myself or people that I know will adhere to a mixed yarn cleaning rule. It feels refreshing to see this. And I also make small personal adjustments to patterns like standing stitches instead of chain twos, or what number advised.
    I think this would be a great project for left over yarn scrap cakes. I make those all the time as well.

I've never done anything else that crotcheting back and forth in a straight line, so no granny, no increasing or decreasing, magic circles or anything. Is this a learn-along-the-way pattern or do i need to learn some skills separately before i attempt this??

    The thing with these kinda blankets is that they get to a good size really quickly... But then the never ending outer rounds just kill me
    They just end up taking so long at some point and it just destros my will to keep going
    Like my temperature blanket for 2024 was just 250 stitches per row and i got to mid february.. But that was in september
    And i just switched to granny square style, so 33 rounds each month, 12 squares. And it's so much better
    First 17 rounds are just done without any Problem. And then it starts to get slow
    But nowhere as bad as those damn 250 single crochet rows

    i really wanted to make one of these when i first saw them, but they seem pretty impractical tbh. they’re such a weird shape and would be awkward to use as a blanket. like ig it could just be for decoration, but if i have a blanket on my bed or couch or whatever i want to be able to use it 😅

    • @julescraftfolk
      @julescraftfolk  3 місяці тому

      I actually really like the size, it’s good for on your legs/lap while on the couch! And I also like wrapping it around like a chunky shawl 😀 Its the first blanket I’ve made, maybe for the next one I’ll do something bigger!

  • @lindajam8202
    @lindajam8202 5 місяців тому +10

    NOT even close to enough yarn for a king sized bed. I make many blankets that fit a queen-sized bed and it takes more than you have there. And dk wt takes even more because you don't get the coverage per stitch with that lighter wt yarn.

    • @casper1626

      sure, but this isnt a rectangle shaped blanket

    • @emilyavalos94
      @emilyavalos94 4 місяці тому +8

      Not sure where you’re from, but different parts of the world use different terms for bed sizes. For example, the UK “king” is about equivalent to the U.S. “queen.” Just something to keep in mind. She also picks up more yarn mid video.

    This was one of the most unpleasant patterns ever. I absolutely HATED it. The written pattern is not made in a way that makes sense at all. Some spots are okay and some makes no sense. I wouldn’t recommend trying this pattern at all

    • @GreenTea_98
      @GreenTea_98 Місяць тому

      I agree, the written pattern is super horrible to follow. but she has videos you can follow along with and once you have the first rows done it's just repeated so you can remember how to do it.
