Hello! I’ve been trying to make smaller blankets but am not able to find the right number of stitches that come out right. How many stitches do you use to make a throw? Thanks so much!
This finger blanket tutorial is the BEST ON UA-cam!!! The only thing I can add to this video is to be sure to take a needle and matching thread and tack that yarn tail down real good at the beginning and ending loops. Beautiful Blanket! Thank you so much for sharing! ❤️
Now that is what I call a tutorial! I know you’ve done similar blankets, but I actually understood this one and I’m definitely going to be making it. It’s gorgeous and looks so cozy! Thanks again for sharing your time and talent! Love to you and rest of the family! ❤
This is THE BEST blanket tutorial I’ve ever seen on UA-cam! I have so much gratitude for you teaching us this beautiful pattern and I can’t wait to make my own!
I usually use your videos to help me fall asleep as i find your calm demeanor and non stop talking very relaxing. But i picked my phone back up to actually watch this video. This is a great tutorial. I want to try the round pillow you made in a previous video as a first project.
I've got 13 skeins of chunky yarn that have been in my craft closet for 2 years. I finally understand how to do this. Thank you for this amazingly clear video!
Never made a board stich blanket and I will definitely make one. Thank you for this great tutorial. I have a little tip for the first row knitting. If you turn the loop row you will see the bobbles. Make your stitches in the bobbles, then all the stitches around the blanket will be exactly the same. Love your voice in all your video’s, you explain everything so calm and clear. Thank you. 🥰🧶🥰
Your fur babies are absolutely adorable and like the way they are playfully involved in your knitting process. They are like little children. Love the blanket and the winter can come now!!!❤
FINALLY SOMEONE CAN EXPLAIN CLEARLY WHAT THEY ARE ACTUALLY DOING! Such a clear, concise step by step video! Ive been so frustrated with every single other video ive watched on how to do this - watched all of them at least a few times and was pausing playing and then rewinding constantly. I watched this video literally one time and paused after watching what to do for each step AND I GOT IT PERFECT FIRST TIME. Thank you thank you than you
Christina as I am watching you I am just thinking of my Uncle who use to knit. He would of loved your channel. He made very complicated stiches so I never followed in his footsteps. Also thinking of my Mum who just passed away this January. She use to make herself dresses and costumes all knitted and if she got sick of it un dobit and did another design😊. Hope next year I can go back and choose one of her knitted dress to bring back. Even if I am not going to wear it nice to have her near me. Thank you for this lovely video. I am not going to propisse I will do one but if I decide certainly let you know. Looks relatively easy. My problem was always with knitting I did the stiches very tight. Must learn to loosen up😊🫂
Thanks for that clear instruction! I always have to use so much brain power to keep track of that last/first stitch. I made one of these, but I decided to make it as a “scarf” for the end of my bed. So it drapes across my Queen sized bed, but only at the foot. I used wool. That thing turned out so heavy that I can barely lift it!🤣 If you use it to cover yourself, it is like one of those weighted blankets. Yours looks much more cozy and soft! 🥰
I love the way you teach; you break it down into simples steps and even smoothen my childhood trauma with the ends dropping. LOL! That was my most frustrating experience with crochet. I wanted to create an heirloom piece for my family. Hope to post it here one day!
Cant wait to do this! You explain so well, I’ve been wanting to make one for a long time, after watching your easy tutorial, I now feel confident I can make one! Thank you so much!
Good afternoon Christina, it was a great video, especially you showing us a new pattern stich and the many uses of this project. I can imagine placing your feet on a soft luxurious blanket when starting out of bed. We can even make the colour match to the existing carpet or room décor. It was fun to see those hairy/furry babies having a good time and Hadley was so sweet to come and keep you company, I think he just wanted some comfort. It was lovely to see you start on the blanket project again, they are so warm and comforting. It is strange how when learning something new, we all have a different perspective of patterns. It was also good to show how to correct a incorrect stich without having to pull out all the work. It seems that our lovely warm season has now started as the temperatures were quite high, it was gorgeous weather, now we are all just waiting for the rains to start. It would be wonderful as it is quite dusty outside. I had to smile looking at the flames in the fireplace, then you know there is a change coming. I really hope the weather will not be too challenging in the Northern Hemisphere this season, we had very high spring tides in the Cape, along the shores, the waves were massive and they pushed wherever they wanted to go. Some of the swells were 9 metres and there was a wind chasing them on as well. It looked very scary as some cars suv's were parked on the usual parking areas and I think the tide pulled back some of them to sea. It does happen at intervals alas, this was an exceptional high tide. I think every 10 years or so. There was some talk about the moon having an effect on the tide as well, which is understandable. Thank you for the tutorial I am sure your dear sister would be so happy with her gift. Do take care, be alert many blessings. Kind regards, Elize.
Hi Elize!!! So good to hear from you!!!!! I love your messages!!! We are starting to get the cool weather now and starting to rain more often! Fall is here! That is incredible about the tides!!! its amazing the power of nature!!!! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🙏🎨
Thank you for this. I have a blanket I started last year that just didn’t go well and I said it aside the video of your friend laughing putting your head down resonated so much now I’m ready to restart this blanket.
This video is absolutely amazing. I have watched at least 50 confusing videos and this tutorial is so clear and so basic. Thank you .. thank you .. thank you !!!!
Thank you so much for a wonderful tutorial. All your tutorials are very clear and easy-to-understand. I've already made for your blankets, they're really addictive!
I watched you when you first started to make these cozy blankets. I have made quite a few. I also taught my Grangirls how to make them. Now they are making pillows. Out of the yarn. Thanks for the insturctions. I was at Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago and a lady was looking at this yarn. She looked like what do i do with this. I ask her if she knew how to make the blankets. She said no, so the yarn I was purchasing, I opened one and showed here how to do the stitches. I also gave her your youtube channel and she was delighted. Thanks so much. God Bless.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I started making these blankets about a year ago after being inspired by one of your videos. I have made all the mistakes you mentioned, so this was very helpful as I am starting to make some for Christmas gifts. These are so satisfying to make and so loved by friends who receive them as gifts. Love this video. This time I will be trying this stitch pattern.
I just went to a class and made one and my beginning chain was too tight and it did turn out uneven at the bottom. So now I know why that happened. Thank you so much. I have watched so many videos and yours is the best one I clearly can understand how to make a chunky blanket. You even explained how to wash and dry it. WOW! Thanks for sharing ❤❤
Morning…. So glad you met up with Katcha and family. I’m sure her new store is very impressive ❤. I bought a while back 1 yarn to try my luck at making a blanket so I will use it as my sample. I’ll let you know of my results. Love the details you provided in this. Ideo 😊👍🤗😎🤗❤️
Hi Christina, thank you very very much for this tutorial! I just ❤❤ these blankets! I am so grateful that both of you recovered from the covid. Stay healthy and happy. Blessings ❤🇿🇦
I want to thank you for your video. I have never knitted a blanket before and I wanted to. After watching your video I felt like I was able to do it. And I did it! Thank You! 😊
I am so very grateful for you teaching us how to hand crochet these gorgeous blankets. I just made this and I am so hooked!!! (Or unhooked) I love how patient, slow and calm you speak, your instructions are so clear and ready to understand. Thank you ❤
Great video Christina, thank you for taking the time to show each step slowly so that even a novice like me can follow. As a visual learner I appreciate how you show what needs to be done, and can I say that showing just your hands working on this helps me understand how it would work for me. I love the clips of your fur babies, they always make me smile. Much love from UK 😊
Thank you so much. I previously followed a different posted tutorial and found it very confusing. After watching yours, I took the whole thing apart and will start remaking it tonight using your directions. This is the best!!
This is the best explanation for the little things I could t figure out. That chain would always get very tight and smaller as I moved up! Thank you for working w Kacha on this-I think that was the best thing you could have done for your yarn tutorials-work with a beginner to see what they did wrong. I am almost done w my blanket but I will now undo it and go back with what I learned from here…I’d rather do it right and learn the correct way than to have it finished! ❤
I'm in the minute 11:10, i stopped the video to write this comment because I couldn't wait till the end to say thank you for the effort you did to make this video, it was a lot of preparation to make it clear, calm, effective, has a goal that was showing in a simple and friendly way. I appreciate the method of presentation and thank you for sharing the knowledge, the experience, the hope, and actually you are sharing 💰💰💰, because some of us will enhance their work, and will make money from selling this beautiful Blankets that has been made based on your instructions. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Your video objective has bean achieved, you taught me new design and it's details. Now i will continue watching on
Рада новой встречи с Вами, дорогая Кристина 🙏🌹🙏 Моё неизменное восхищение Вашим мастерством, к чему бы Вы не "прикасались"🙏🌹‼️ Мира,любви,здоровья Вашей красивой СЕМЬЕ 🙏🌹‼️ Искренне. Обнимаю сердцем. Марина. Москва. 🙏🐕🌹
Большое спасибо! Надеюсь, вам понравится сегодняшнее новое видео, и спасибо за подписку, оно действительно помогает моему каналу на UA-cam продвигать его в русскоязычных странах!! ❤️🙏🎨
Wow!!! What a great tutorial. Your clear precise instructions and your sweet calm voice made for great presentation and direction. I loved that front/back stitch you taught makes all the difference in the look of the throw. I love throws as a splash of color in my otherwise monochromatic modern farmhouse look. Or in the creams as a layering piece. Thank you for showing us your sweet friend as she learned, really helped to be aware of common mistakes. Like chalk painting I review several videos before I start a project to be sure I absolutely know what I’m doing and your video has been the best out of the 25’or so I’ve seen. I will send a pic of the finished product. Thank you again. 🎉
So so glad I found you! You make hand knitting feel so un-intimidating and so beginner friendly :) already made my first blanket with another tutorial of yours and loved how I'm learning new tricks and trips still with this video. Thank you!!
I wished I had saw this tutorial when I first learned to do these blankets. I have made so many of them and really enjoyed doing they. Beautiful blanket.💕💕💕💕
I love how big it is. Im making blankets for my grandkids for Christmas with some pretty bright colours they'll love. Id love to make one as big as yours for my bed. Have a beautiful weekend 😊 Happy to see you feeling much more yourself now.
I have arthritis and can't get in the floor, I was using a navy blue for my son and doing the huge blanket. I got so far with my body hurting and when I picked it up there were many mistakes you can only see from the other side. I get it, I don't have light, I was struggling in pain and had a very uncomfortable place to work on it. Now I have to unravel 6 hours of work. I'm so disappointed in myself.
Excellent tutorial! Great explanation of why you do a particular thing as it eliminates my questioning, lol. Just so thorough and I really appreciate that. Thank you.
Wow, I really learned a lot and greatly appreciate your video. I believe had I had watched your video first, I don’t believe I would have been so frustrated last night for 5 hours. Everything you said your friend made a mistake doing I did! I loved how you broke things down more. I believe with your video and guidance I will be more successful next go around. I was starting to get discouraged but I will prevail. Thank you.
I think this is an amazing tutorial for me to follow. I’m going to try this out as I am trying to find something to keep my hands busy to keep from smoking now instead of eating. Thanks so much!!!
That is such an awesome insight and as I am going to do this for my dear friends birthday 11/11❤ I love the different stitches you use because all the store bought ones are the 1 simple stitch. But yours are so much more beautiful and interesting. 😍😍 Thank you 😊 thsnk you so much!❤ I love your voice its so soothing and reassuring. Clear, easy to follow tutorials. I love the white pit bull!!! They are such great dogs! I have rescued them for 35 yrs. Of course I love your babies too ❤❤
@@TheReclaimedHeirloom I did!!! That table is the best!! 😍 Gorgeous and what GREAT pricing!! Thr holes drilled for you!! Wow!! Great idea to clamp it before screwing together❤️ I probably will use glue between the boards too. I was in your Amazon store living the retinol, hyaluronic, vit C serums. Too. 😍
Thank you so much for teaching us how to make blankets with our hands! I'm glad you did it together with your friend because I tried to make the small chenille pillows last spring and sure had to keep trying it over again as my loops were uneven and sometimes twisted. So, I wished you were by my side to help me see what I was doing wrong. This video inspired me to keep trying! Also, now I see that we may not have to unravel it to correct a mistake! You are a great instructor!!😊
Oh Christina what a beautiful cozy blanket, the perfect color for any decor. Fur babies feel the same, Lol❤ Loved how you were able to reverse the stich when you saw the error. I remember when my mom taught me how to crochet, I had to rip out so much of my hard work just to correct one error. My daughter is left handed & I'm right handed & teaching her this technique will go so much smoother & less complicated for the both of us. Less frustration & happy memories will create a beautiful blanket, I'm sure she'll treasure forever. Happy Fall 🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂
Wow, now that’s the way to teach! I watched one of your other videos and loved the knit and purl technique. This video definitely answered all of my questions.!
You give such wonderful directions!..I have made several of these, I made one for my grandson and his wife and I got carried away and used 12 skins and it was huge!! But they love it. I appreciate you.
Wow! That term, border stitch (and it always is a knit stitch) explains a lot…where I may have gone off before. I did mine last winter using 9 skeins…36 stitches wide, since everyone wanted giant blankets! Also, my issue with this stitch was it being too loose overall and the single stitch blanket you did your other tutorial on turned out much better and tighter. The good news is I can always unravel the first ones I made and do them better! Loved the way you fixed a mistake so easily! Thanks, as always ❤
Magnificent, we just want to curl up in it, your hairy ones have understood it well😂!!!!! I've been knitting a lot lately with needles and it's the best! Thank you Christina for this super tuto💕💝🧡💚❤💙💜
You really are such a good teacher! I have made so many of these and gifted to friends and family. They all loved them and think I am so talented lol! My favorites are made including cable stitches.. they are so warm and cozy. Great job as alway Christina ❤
¡Muchas gracias! Espero que disfruten el nuevo video de hoy y gracias por suscribirse, realmente ayuda a mi canal de UA-cam a promocionarlo en los países de habla hispana. ❤️🙏🎨

Hello! I’ve been trying to make smaller blankets but am not able to find the right number of stitches that come out right. How many stitches do you use to make a throw? Thanks so much!
Where do you get your. Chenile yarn?
Could you change the color of the yarn in the sections between the braided sections? Hope that makes sense.
This finger blanket tutorial is the BEST ON UA-cam!!! The only thing I can add to this video is to be sure to take a needle and matching thread and tack that yarn tail down real good at the beginning and ending loops. Beautiful Blanket! Thank you so much for sharing! ❤️
Yes. Because they do kinda work their way out.
Now that is what I call a tutorial! I know you’ve done similar blankets, but I actually understood this one and I’m definitely going to be making it. It’s gorgeous and looks so cozy! Thanks again for sharing your time and talent! Love to you and rest of the family! ❤

I have a little tip for the first row knitting. If you turn the loop row you will see the bobbles. Make your stitches in the bobbles, then all the stitches around the blanket will be exactly the same.

I am so grateful that both of you recovered from the covid. Stay healthy and happy.
Blessings ❤🇿🇦
Thanks so much for your kind words and support to my channel, greatly appreciated! ❤️🙏🎨
I want to thank you for your video. I have never knitted a blanket before and I wanted to. After watching your video I felt like I was able to do it. And I did it! Thank You! 😊
Amazing. I will try it. The dogs are so sweet and your patience with them is so endearing.

I love this pattern! I made a “puppy pad” for my Maltese out of one skein of this yarn - so he has his own cozy blanket to lay on - he loves it!
Christina, the blanket is beautiful - and you had a couple of great helpers!!
Thank you so much! Yes I did!!! LOL! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏
So fun! I made two last year with your tutorial! Super cozy and warm for those chilly damp nights! Thanks and see you next week!
Thanks so much for your kind words and support to my channel, greatly appreciated! ❤️🙏🎨
Thank you so much. I previously followed a different posted tutorial and found it very confusing. After watching yours, I took the whole thing apart and will start remaking it tonight using your directions. This is the best!!
I am teaching my friends to crochet, but I think they would love to learn this method. Thank you for sharing
This is the best explanation for the little things I could t figure out. That chain would always get very tight and smaller as I moved up! Thank you for working w Kacha on this-I think that was the best thing you could have done for your yarn tutorials-work with a beginner to see what they did wrong. I am almost done w my blanket but I will now undo it and go back with what I learned from here…I’d rather do it right and learn the correct way than to have it finished! ❤
Thank you so much! Glad it helped!! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏

Большое спасибо! Надеюсь, вам понравится сегодняшнее новое видео, и спасибо за подписку, оно действительно помогает моему каналу на UA-cam продвигать его в русскоязычных странах!! ❤️🙏🎨
Wow!!! What a great tutorial. Your clear precise instructions and your sweet calm voice made for great presentation and direction. I loved that front/back stitch you taught makes all the difference in the look of the throw. I love throws as a splash of color in my otherwise monochromatic modern farmhouse look. Or in the creams as a layering piece. Thank you for showing us your sweet friend as she learned, really helped to be aware of common mistakes. Like chalk painting I review several videos before I start a project to be sure I absolutely know what I’m doing and your video has been the best out of the 25’or so I’ve seen. I will send a pic of the finished product. Thank you again. 🎉
Wow....what a great video, so easy to follow along. The blanket turned out beautifully. Thank you so much for sharing. ❤️
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏
Thank you for sharing and showing me a NEWBE how it’s done and your voice is AMAZING AND SOOTHING😇
So so glad I found you! You make hand knitting feel so un-intimidating and so beginner friendly :) already made my first blanket with another tutorial of yours and loved how I'm learning new tricks and trips still with this video. Thank you!!
I wished I had saw this tutorial when I first learned to do these blankets. I have made so many of them and really enjoyed doing they. Beautiful blanket.💕💕💕💕
Glad it was helpful!❤️🎨🙏
I love how big it is. Im making blankets for my grandkids for Christmas with some pretty bright colours they'll love. Id love to make one as big as yours for my bed. Have a beautiful weekend 😊 Happy to see you feeling much more yourself now.
Great idea!❤️🎨🙏
I've made a blanket from your tutorial before but this does clarify and make some things easier. Thank you
Thank you for being so patient and being able to explain thank you for sharing this tutorial
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏
What a luxurious cozy blanket. Thank you for sharing the instructions.
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏
I have arthritis and can't get in the floor, I was using a navy blue for my son and doing the huge blanket. I got so far with my body hurting and when I picked it up there were many mistakes you can only see from the other side. I get it, I don't have light, I was struggling in pain and had a very uncomfortable place to work on it. Now I have to unravel 6 hours of work. I'm so disappointed in myself.
Amazing tutorial! I love this!! Thank you!
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏
Excellent tutorial! Great explanation of why you do a particular thing as it eliminates my questioning, lol. Just so thorough and I really appreciate that. Thank you.
So beautiful! Thanks for the instruction ❤
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏
Really great tutorial. The time you take is incredibly helpful.😊
Wow, I really learned a lot and greatly appreciate your video. I believe had I had watched your video first, I don’t believe I would have been so frustrated last night for 5 hours. Everything you said your friend made a mistake doing I did! I loved how you broke things down more. I believe with your video and guidance I will be more successful next go around. I was starting to get discouraged but I will prevail. Thank you.
I think this is an amazing tutorial for me to follow. I’m going to try this out as I am trying to find something to keep my hands busy to keep from smoking now instead of eating. Thanks so much!!!
Thank you so much! I have another chunky blanket tutorial you may like! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏
Great tutorial, beautiful results. Seems a bit pricey, but, still soo cozy and heart warming. Thank you for all you are sharing.
You are a very good teacher ! Thank you👍
Thank you! 😃❤️🎨🙏
I would love to do this with my daughter. This will be a fun project to accomplish.
❤Such a beautiful chunky blanket! Thank you for sharing this wonderful tutorial. I plan to make a few for my good friends 💕
You are so precise and easy to follow. Beautiful blanket. X
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏
Thank you for the instructions. I'm going to try again.
That is such an awesome insight and as I am going to do this for my dear friends birthday 11/11❤ I love the different stitches you use because all the store bought ones are the 1 simple stitch. But yours are so much more beautiful and interesting. 😍😍
Thank you 😊 thsnk you so much!❤ I love your voice its so soothing and reassuring. Clear, easy to follow tutorials. I love the white pit bull!!! They are such great dogs! I have rescued them for 35 yrs. Of course I love your babies too ❤❤
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏
@@TheReclaimedHeirloom I did!!! That table is the best!! 😍 Gorgeous and what GREAT pricing!! Thr holes drilled for you!! Wow!! Great idea to clamp it before screwing together❤️ I probably will use glue between the boards too. I was in your Amazon store living the retinol, hyaluronic, vit C serums. Too. 😍
Thank you so much for teaching us how to make blankets with our hands! I'm glad you did it together with your friend because I tried to make the small chenille pillows last spring and sure had to keep trying it over again as my loops were uneven and sometimes twisted. So, I wished you were by my side to help me see what I was doing wrong. This video inspired me to keep trying! Also, now I see that we may not have to unravel it to correct a mistake! You are a great instructor!!😊
I love your hand stitch blankets❤ I have tried a couple of your patterns!!! Your directions are awesome and easy to follow!! Thank you for sharing!!!!
Thank you so much! I was hoping this would help everyone trying to make this style of blanket! ❤️🙏🎨
Wonderful clear and concise instruction and visuals. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!❤️🙏🎨
Oh Christina what a beautiful cozy blanket, the perfect color for any decor. Fur babies feel the same, Lol❤ Loved how you were able to reverse the stich when you saw the error. I remember when my mom taught me how to crochet, I had to rip out so much of my hard work just to correct one error. My daughter is left handed & I'm right handed & teaching her this technique will go so much smoother & less complicated for the both of us. Less frustration & happy memories will create a beautiful blanket, I'm sure she'll treasure forever. Happy Fall 🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂
Thank you so much Elizabeth! Glad you liked it!! I have to teach Ryan as he is left handed too!! ❤️🎨🙏
Beautiful blanket:) Thanks for this awesome tutorial. I can’t wait to make one!
Thank you! Let me know how it turns out!! 😊❤️🙏🎨
This pattern looks so easy! I’d love to try it someday.
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏
Wow, now that’s the way to teach! I watched one of your other videos and loved the knit and purl technique. This video definitely answered all of my questions.!
Fantastic tutorial. So easy to follow and extremely clear
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏
Absolutely gorgeous

I’m so excited to have found this video!! I’ve wanted to make one forever! Plus I love Kacha and you!! I found you thru Kacha.❤ thank you!
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏
You give such wonderful directions!..I have made several of these, I made one for my grandson and his wife and I got carried away and used 12 skins and it was huge!! But they love it. I appreciate you.
Wow! That term, border stitch (and it always is a knit stitch) explains a lot…where I may have gone off before. I did mine last winter using 9 skeins…36 stitches wide, since everyone wanted giant blankets! Also, my issue with this stitch was it being too loose overall and the single stitch blanket you did your other tutorial on turned out much better and tighter. The good news is I can always unravel the first ones I made and do them better! Loved the way you fixed a mistake so easily! Thanks, as always ❤
Omg, you’re a good teacher ❤❤❤❤❤Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing this pattern with us! I feel confident I can now make one ! Just ordered the yarn right now 🥰
Perfect tutorial I feel so much more confident making one now. I’ve had the yarn for a year now 😂 thank you 🙏
