The Jayda InStitches Show 2015 - Навчання та стиль
Thanks, and to calculate the amount of strings , we have to weigh the square ex. If the square is 10 gr. And we need 130 squares , so 130*10=1300gr. So we need 13 woollen balls of 100gr.🌸🌸
Your comment literally just saved me, I was about to order 20 balls of 100gr, because I never realised that you could actually calculate the amount you need, even though it’s so easy to do. I don’t know why I never thought of that hahaha Thank you
You have the best tutorials not just with crocheting projects but with explaining blanket sizes, how to block our projects and so many other useful helpful hints in finishing our projects and showing us "how to". Thanks for all the great tips Jayda!!
Hi Anna! Thank you so much for watching :)
Thank you for this information. I would be so lost without your tutorials. God, what did they do in the old days without UTube.
Hi Audrey! I spent a lot of time in second hand book stores and the library 😊 But wow, did the internet ever jack up learning!
This is so helpful! I'm making a minions blanket and a Montreal Canadiens blanket as Christmas gifts this year (using your Mario wall hanging for inspiration) and I couldn't figure out how big to actually make them. This came at the perfect time! You are a great teacher! Thank you :)
+Tiffany Lindberg Hi Tiffany, those blankets sound AMAZING!! Thank you so much for watching :)
Can she please explain every crocheting video ever, she’s great at teaching
The nostalgia from this single video is ASTRONOMICAL
Lol I know right?!?!
Thank you for all of your videos. They’re very helpful and well thought out. I watch several people for crochet tutorials but I find I oftentimes end my searching with your excellent instruction.
Hi Edith, thank you so much, we're so happy to know you're enjoying our show :)
Thank you so much!!!!!!!!! I was so confused on how to figure this out and now with your help I can make my first beautiful blanket!
Wonderful! We're so happy we could help Lillian!
I just watched your video last week on how to make a granny square and can I tell you how happy I am that I found you!! I watched video after video and could not follow these people then I saw your video. I am just learning and my first project is a King Size granny square blanket for my daughter. I can't wait to get started!!! I have a little note pad I am keeping these formulas in as I need them and cannot say thank you enough for making your videos. Thank you Jayda!!!
+Shannon Steele Hi Shannon! That's wonderful, what an amazing gift! Thank you so much for watching :)
HI, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EXPLAINING HOW MANY SQUARES YOU NEED TO MAKE A GRANNY SQUARE BLANKET. I HAVE WRITTEN DOWN MY MESUREMENTS, IT HAS REALLY HELPED. THANKS PAM.
Hi Pam, we're so happy we could help! Thank you for watching 😊
This is so helpful! Your tutorials are so easy to understand and I love your energy :) thank you so much :)
You are an awesome teacher, I never understood crochet, until I saw you’re video, even though I always wanted to learn. I finally got it bc you repeat over n over! Thank you soooooo much
Hi Rose, we're so happy you find our videos helpful :) Thank you for watching!
Jayda I absolutely looooove your tutorials. I love that you explain everything so clearly & concise to easy understanding & of course I enjoy your bubbly personality. I'm currently working on a star stitch crochet baby blanket for my granddaughter. Now, my daughter and I would like to add a lovely soft minky back lining and binding to the blanket as a finishing touch. Now my question is....."What would be the best approach to do this?" We want a clean finished stitch, but we are skeptical of it gathering if I sew it with my sewing machine. Would it be better if I just hand sew it?? Could you please please please do a helpful tutorial on how to do this? Please???? I've searched UA-cam, and couldn't find a single tutorial for this yet.
Hi Josie! I'll certainly consider it! Thank you for the suggestion :)
Thank you so much. I will continue looking forward to your future videos as always. Thanks again for sharing your talent with everyone on UA-cam. I've really learned lots from your tips. ☺
I have just finished my second scrapie blanket.i just love these. They r so bright and cheerful. Thank u.
Hi Barbara, they ARE bright and cheerful! I love them too!
Jaydayour amazing, I was standing here looking at my squares ( which are 9"x9") scratching my brain as to how many I would need, and there you were with the answer of how to determine it! thank you for breaking it down so easily>
Hello from Saskatchewan. Came across your channel late last night when you popped up into my "recommended" videos and can't believe I haven't seen you sooner! Literally spent all afternoon (which kids peacefully napping. Score!) while it's been raining drinking tea, making granny squares for a pixel afghan and binging on your playlists. I love your enthusiasm and personality. Keep up the awesome job.
PrairieJenn Well Hello Saskatchewan! There's nothing like a "Prairie Sky" in summer :) Thank you so much for dropping me a line! Tell me, what image did you pick for your pixel afghan?
+Jayda InStitches a tie dye skull 😀
Hi Jayda, great tutorial! thank you for the quick reply on how many squares make a blanket, and this tutuorial really helps.
Since I am a beginner crochett (two months ha!) I started making granny squares from your tutorial and after making quit a few squares and gaining confidence, I started wondering on the what I was making and how to put it together. With this new confidence I started a pattern of squares and placed them on a table to see how I wanted the pattern to look. I know it will take a few weeks to complete or more but once done I will share!
thanks again! I love your tutorials!
sue belitski Great progression Sue :) Making my first blanket was an exciting experience...and I was planning the next one before I finished the first LOL Enjoy!
That's awesome it makes others excited about the subject.
Love learning from your tutorials. Our church has a group of knitters/crocheters that meet weekly and making up your hat and scarf and so many other tutorials is so fun plus they all go to the needy! 😍
Hi Lynda, that's so lovely! Thank you for watching :)
Thank you so much for this tutorial, Jayda! I am making a blanket for my full or double sized bed. I was just making a lot of granny squares, not knowing how many I needed! This really helped me! Unfortunately, I have to make 165 squares! Better get to work! Have a great day! 😊

+Angel Smoot Hi Angel! Thank you so much for watching :) Have fun with your first baby blanket! Those are such fun projects :)
Thank you Jayda instiches! Today I have got some “Red Heart Jumbo” skeins. I have got Aran and Burgundy. When I got them I could not believe how big it was so I when I went to see it was 744 YARDS! I was star struck it was meant to only for a couple of granny squares for my blanket. I am actually happy so I can make a some more projects. I just don’t know what to do. I might make two granny square blankets but I am happy that you can help!
You are so full of wisdom

Hey Jayda. I love your videos! Do you have a tutorial on using different size granny squares together to make a blanket? I would love to make a blanket using big squares surrounded by smaller squares but don't know how to determine the sizes to make them fit together and look right. Thanks.
Hi Leslie, thank you for watching, and for the suggestion!
Very well done! Answered a lot of questions I had. I'm thinking about starting my first blanket (pray for me).
You can do it! :)
Thanks for your help figuring the size of squares. I always wondered.
Thank you for watching Linda!
Hi Jayda, u r my savior. I have been trying to make a Granny Square blanket for my daughter's bed. She wants it big enough for either a regular King or a California King bed. I figure if I make 230 10" squares that should be enough. Course I may go blind or never want to crochet again after making it, but we'll see. Thanks again for this video tutorial. God Bless you and your family.!
Wow! That's a lot of squares! Thank you for watching Judi :)
Thank for this! Really appreciated!

@@JaydaInStitches did you do a 2018 calendar blanket? I can't find it if you did
Love your videos. I just love learning from you.
Hi Jayda,
I just love your videos. Your explanations are so clear, I keep coming back when I need them. I would like to ask how to calculate how to calculate how much wool I need for an afghan? I know it's a big question. I was wondering if you could give some tips.
Thank you so much
Hi Sharon, Thank you for watching! Yarn, tension, hook size and pattern stitches all vary and with it, the amount of yarn required...not to mention how big you make your blanket! The best way to get a solid "guesstimate" of how much yarn you'll need is to make a small sample, say around 6 inches by 6 inches. Use the hook, yarn and stitch pattern that you want to make the blanket out of. Once you've hit your target measurements, unravel and measure the yarn in meters or yards. This way you'll know that for every 6 inch (or 15 cm) square piece of blanket, you'll be required "X" number of meters or yards of yarn :)
I love all of your cute little intros!!!😊😋👍🏻
Thank you! My husband is the super-talent behind those :)
+Jayda InStitches your welcome
