  • Entrelac Classic Horizontal Crochet Stitch Made Easy / Tutorial How To
    I will never understand why so many crochet folks make this stitch so difficult. I have watched many people try to teach it and they just make it difficult and hard to understand. It is not difficult and is actually really easy to understand. If you have ever wanted to crochet this beautiful, addictive and deceptively simple stitch, come watch my video!
    Entrelac is a form of Tunisian, but you don't even need a special Tunisian hook!
    Ciao friends! If you are so inclined, you can now buy me a coffee. It really helps the channel, and I could use the caffeine, so thanks! 😉 www.buymeacoff...

    I just found your channel and I am so glad. I have been thru so many examples of this Afghan and yours is by far the best. You speak so clearly and your instructions are so easy to follow. Oh, and you are funny. I look forward to watching more of your videos. Wish me look on my first attempt at enterlac crochet. My name is Minney and I am from the great state of TN.

    my 'normal' chains look horrible, so have gone to long tail KNIT cast on, which gives me a nice edge that is easy to work into for a border, looks nice, and gets my loops on the hook ready to go. love your channel and how you teach!

    If I want to make a baby blanket would I just chain the width that I wanted, making sure to use the correct multiples. How will the height come out? I want to have a square blanket when finished. Like the others have said I am glad I found this tutorial as it is the one that makes the most sense to me 🙂

    • @ThimbleHooks
      @ThimbleHooks  Рік тому +1

      Hi! Use my math in this one for your chaining width:

      Then make rows until you are happy with it's "squareness"...😉😃

    • @ThimbleHooks
      @ThimbleHooks  Рік тому

      That is trial and error jlee. I have never made a twin size, but I would make a small swatch from my video and then measure and divide by the width (or length) of the blanket size you want, then make that many squares. Bethany

    • @djahorne
      @djahorne Рік тому

      Thimblehooks Can you expand on your explanation for me. I was wanting to make a throw. Say a 50 by 70 throw. How many rows do I need to make in a swatch to do my measurement? I would think 2 and measure the 2nd row. Would that be correct. Then how would I do the math? Can you give an example please.
      Also I have looked a many videos on this and yours is by far the best one. Thank you for doing this. I am so interested in the reversible entrelac pattern too, but need to get this one down first. Thanks again for your help and time.
