    It would be nice to see the video tutorial go round a corner as this is where I sometimes get a little stuck

    @kimosborne3454 3 роки тому +2

    When you get to a corner do you have to change the pattern or does it just continue round in the same way?

  • @ivankas8903
    @ivankas8903 5 років тому +19

    It looks beautiful! just have one question for you: how do you do corners? Do you do double shell with one or two stitches in between to create corner?

    • @Love_LightCreations
      @Love_LightCreations 4 роки тому +4

      That's my question too. Was there ever an answer?

      I have done this border several times and yes, I do two in the corners so It turns nicely.

    Great instructions!!!!! Thank you for going right into the instructions instead of telling us about your nail polish, your baby screaming in the background, why your dog or cat is sleeping in the background etc.

      Yes, exactly! I'm glad you take care of yourself, but I really don't care if you're nail polish matches today's yarn. I also like how she doesn't needlessly repeat herself.

    @janeh7146 2 роки тому +1

    Thank you for this clear tutorial for a lovely edge. As a variation, I put the first of my three single crochet stitches in the last space of the previous shell. I tried both ways and found this gave a tighter finish that I was looking for. I too wished for extra instruction for corners please.

    I have used this border to finish off a blanket. I have hard not before. I was wondering if you have any ideas as to keeping the shells in the right position. I have to always fix them. I have tried a loose stitch and even tried tightening my stitch. But can not get it to lay like it should with out having to make them lay right. Thank you so much for you time.

The washers at these nursing homes are commercial grade and wreck the fringe work. This border would be perfect. Again thank you. God Bless.

    Hi there...my name is Lesa....i followed your video in completing the corner to corner. I followed the border where you chain 2 and do single crochet in between each block. What I need to know, is I see you did a single crochet attaching the yarn to the blanket but how did you do that being when you chain 2, there are little holes in between. I would to make this border and not sure what my next step is. Do I need to do another single crochet going around? Also...how do you do the corners with this stitch too which you do not show. Im making this blanket for a Christening. My daughter is having twins. Thank you so much. 💙

    • @HeartHookHome
      @HeartHookHome  4 роки тому

      Hi Lesa! The first round of the border is only to clean things up. I would do another row as a foundation for the reverse shells. At the corners, you'll just straddle them.

  • @LADYJUSTICE50
    @LADYJUSTICE50 6 років тому

    OMG Ashley! I simply love this Border! But I had to watch it several times and write the instructions down as I'm left handed, so the turn, anchor, sl. st turn part had me in a slew of yarn & all twisted up! On my 3rd attempt I had it beautifully! But I'm curious! The boarder appears much larger in real time vs. UA-cam time. Is there anyway to make a smaller version of this gorgeous Rev. Shell . Boarder? Can we do sc. 2, then ch.2, anchor, sl. st, turn & work 5 dbl C's? What would the effects be? I suppose I could do it myself and let you know! Just curious if it will still come out as nice. I thought a smaller fan would look so pretty. Your opinion please? And thank you so much for this lovely gorgeous video! This was my 1st time watching you. I subscribed immediately! You were easy to watch, clear, concise and repeated enough times so I was able to keep up! I'm disabled, so my partial blindness and severe ADHD were easily accompanied with success rather than frustration! I'm often afraid to try more complexed stitches (intermediate) due to my handicaps but you made this a Dream! I've always watched 2 other crochet sites, Creative Grandma & Mikey from The Crochet Club, but sometimes I'm disheartened when I can't keep up with a newer stitch. I really appreciate you video and can't wait to try something different soon! Bless you Ashley. I really appreciate it! Sincerely, Suzi

    Thank you for such a great and easy to follow tutorial. I just speed crocheted a baby blanket for my mom's friend in two days and was looking for a nice border for it. I saw this tutorial and took a gamble and decided to try it out. It looks so pretty but I am crying right now because I just ran out of yarn I have about 1/4 of the blanket left to edge :'( This pattern sure does eat up yarn...lol...but i still love it! Will run to the shop tomorrow for more yarn.
