Hi love the blanket my names Wendy I've been crocheting since I was14 and never put my hook down thanks to my gran am 60 now and teaching my granddaughter to crochet she's 6 years old and doing well it's nice to pass it on love your Chanel and watch you when I can x
I love this pattern, I have made three baby blankets and for the girls I put ribbon in the space. I am now working on an afghan size but I'm using a worsted yarn. I am changing the colors after Row 2 and 3, I change a color and then I do two rows and change colors again. It is so beautiful. Thank you so much for this beautiful and very easy pattern Mikey. You are my Crochet Guru, and have taught me so much. I had to retire early from Lupus complications, and I have been crocheting so much these past three months. l love it. You have touched so many lives Mikey, you are very kind spoken and talented. God bless you
I know this is late in coming, but I was just thinking of doing ribbon in the space for my step-son's upcoming baby. It would be nice in the presentation and easy for them to take out if they prefer. Thank you for posting that it worked for you already. It's a beautiful stitch and with the huge variety of colours in the Bernat Blanket line, I'm seeing that I'll be applying this to several gifts for the next holiday as well as upcoming births.
Yaasss. I recently started crochet and I am finishing up a baby blanket for my friend. My first was a baby hat. I wanna make a blanket for my mother and one for myself. The issue is that my grandma always crocheted beautifully and made a ton of afghans for babies and adults. But most of them were not the totally solid stitch. That works great for my mom because she’s always warm. But I wanted to find a more solid, warm pattern for myself and that was repeating because I’m still new. So, thank you!
Mikey, thank you for your very pleasant voice and expert tutorial. I am a beginner of sorts and am easily able to do this blanket, thanks to you it's such a nice soft blanket, looks good and is easier. My son-,in-law will be so happy to get this in Oct on his birthday. I'm using Bernat blanket charcoal ombre. Thanks again for making this possible.. I'm not joking ❤
This is such a great tutorial! (New subscriber, by the way 😊). I made this blanket last year and had so much trouble with the ends, so mine turned out kind of wonky on the edges so I'm keeping it for myself. 😊. I might try it again so I can give it to a friend because I like how mindless the rows became, except for edges. I look forward to binging on your other videos and maybe I'll find a different afghan/throw to try.. 😊
Believe it or not, I have been looking for smthg to do with a bunch of this yarn, so I am super happy and excited to have found this. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you !!!
I have watched (and saved to my crochet playlist) so many of your tutorials. Of course I'm subscribed to your channel as well. I have finally gotten around to making one of your projects. This works up so quickly it and is turning out beautifully! I am making this for my queen size bed, with draping so it's similar to a comforter, and I am dumbfounded at the almost mindless stitching! Thank you so much for your amazing instructions!!!
Would love to do this blanket, but dont like how the bernat blanket yarn crochets! ☹️ I used it to do a teddy bear for my great-nephew, & it was difficult to keep on the hook. Spent more time re-inserting my hook, than actually crocheting. I was not pleased with end resilt! I am old school yarn I guess. Smaller yarn, & softer yarn is my favorite to work with! I think I will try this pattern, just use a different yarn! Thanks for posting!
I can't wait Mikey! This will be great to create after I complete my first Granny Square I'm doing now! I really look forward to this because it's fast & easy! I think I'll be able to make 2 before Summer's out to wind up my Blanket gifts! I look forward to mixing my bright new colors! Thank You so much for an easy one to escape the heat on!
Mikey I just wanted to thank you. I was trying to figure out a blanket for me as I have made everyone lots of them. But I have never made myself one nor has anyone made me one. I found this stitch that wii be my blanket. I also want to say this is a TV and a yarn binge pattern and I love it!!! Thank you so much. I love how you have helped open my creativity. 2021 blessings to you and Dan and your beautiful furbabies.
How much yarn did you end up using by doing the HDC? I'm making the first one and the SC are killing me - I don't feel like I'm making any progress - LOL I have 10" - but it took me 21 rows to get there.
I was dying to make this , cause you make it look sooo easy . BUT man ! It was a struggle !!!! This yarn is the worst for a beginner , so hard to see the chains and the back of the chain .. I really struggled 😔
I love Bernat yarn. It works great for infant hats also because it's chunky and stretchy. But what I worry a little about in this tutorial is it seems as though the holes are a lot larger than in the image? I love that the blanket seems more tightly crocheted in the image... and I tend to get cold with too large of spaces.
Wow, this is the perfect stitch for what I have in mind. However, I have baby bulky 5 yarn, not sure how to match this up.... I know I should make sure I have the correct crochet hook but not sure about the yardage. Each bulky #5 skein I have has 221 yds. I have two so I'm thinking to purchase at least 1 more. I'm not making a huge blanket, but man is it hard to find bulky 5 tutorials out there. Help :)
Mikey, please do a video of how to work borders on various stitches. I can't do a border to save my life, especially with taller stitches like dc or tr.
This is hands down the most confusing and difficult blanket I have ever attempted. I would call this intermediate in my opinion. I tried for hours and hours to get through the first three rows and I just couldn’t. Beautiful blanket but way above my skill level.
If you like the look of this stitch, but want something a bit simpler, try the moss stitch! It is a 1 row repeat all the way through your blanket and you don’t have to think or count!
Do you write notes when you do a pattern video in your own terminology? I do & it usually makes things easier. Then when I have repeat rows, what I do is repeatedly write the row number down, like 12121212 & then put a line through it so I know that one is done & I know what line I’m on. Hope this helps you!! 😊
This is the first time that I ever saw you crochet, and I think you really go fast and I thought it was a little confusing. I also don’t like all the big holes that are left in this particular pattern
So many of these patterns that say they are for beginners they really aren’t. I think whoever designs these patterns forget what it is like to be a beginner.☹️
Why am I ending up with loose threads among my stitches? I tried this twice and I had big loops coming out of the rows- I gave up and did another pattern. Is it because I am not going to the "bump" row with the second row? Or is it because I am using a smaller hook? SIze M?
Hi Mikey I want to do a blanket ,with no holes if possible. I am using a bernat blanket extra it is size 7 weight. Could you suggest a stitch I could use. Thankyou
Is there another brand that has blanket yarn like this? I don't think my local crafts store carries the Bernat brand since I've never seen it on the shelves.
okay, so you lost me when you start doing the stitches around the ends, I don't do that right? unless I'm completely done with the blanket? I just keep crocheting until the same stitch until I get it the length I want? and when I all done that's when I do the stitch that goes all around?
I realize you've probably already got your answer, but yes the single crochet stitches going around are the border and the last thing you will do unless you want to add more border to the finished project.
Mikey, why do the pictures look so different than your finished work here? The website pics show what looks like a tighter even weave pattern. Do I need to pull it much tighter or is the picture misleading or what?
Yeah, looks totally different. Moreover, he starts the sc on the wrong side. Totally confuses me. I'm going to try this pattern on some throw-away yarn to get the stitching down. Don't trust it.
Actually, when I did mine I laid mine down on a solid surface and it looked like there were no holes in it (like the picture) but once I lifted it up, you can see the holes a little clearer. As you continue crocheting it looks well put together even after you wrap it around yourself, it looks like the picture; but I do feel as if it's a little misleading because the holes aren't as easily seen when you lay it up against something.
If you use a smaller hook the holes really do shrink too. Try a couple different gauges and see what works for you. I made one of these for a friend and it ended up quite nice.
I'm sorry AF. This was filmed so long ago and I am still learning to be a better YT Host but I struggle, as you can see. I may be the wrong host for you to follow.
@@TheCrochetCrowd thank you. I see it was filmed 5 yrs ago. You're re still struggling? It seems like you got butt hurt telling me to follow someone else. I'm just saying slow down a bit show your work and it will be great. But if you're still struggling then YI needs to find someone else to do tutorials.
Honestly more detail would be nice. You say this is for beginners yet here I am completely lost. You only Chain a few, barely show what you are doing and you fly right through it. Getting to the end after first row makes zero sense. This is the second time I’ve watched one of your videos and honestly had to go find a different one because it was no help at all. Perhaps slow it down and go more in depth with what you’re working with!
Checking video. This is marked as an easy level, not beginner-level. Sounds like I have misspoken if that is the case. I will re-listen to the introduction now.
Pattern shown says Easy Level. I did say it's an easy level, 'almost' a beginner level. I'm sorry about that. I need to get myself in check for what is easy for me may not be for others.

I made this twice! Once in a queen size. She loved it! I changed the widths of the stripes, but it was easy to do
Great job! Enjoy your Sunday.
Thank u so much for these free patterns. I appreciate it and I'm sure everyone else watching appreciates the time and efforts put into these videos!
It’s my pleasure. Thanks so much.
Awesome!! Looks so easy!! I absolutely LOVE your tutorials Mikey!!! ❤❤❤

I did a scarf in a similar pattern, but I did hdc/ch1 instead of sc. It's in hot pink and black. I love it.
This is perfect, I was looking for a pattern for the Bernat yarn I had bought for a blanket; love this stitch Thank you for sharing this stitch
You are so welcome!

Molto bello, cercherò di fare un plaid. Grazie 💜
Am literally learning to croché with your vídeos can you please do a tutorial on this blanket explaining the color additions
I will see if I can schedule something this fall or into the winter. I'm over my head at the moment.

Hello Tammy
This looks like its fun and easy! But, my favorite stitch is the hdc. I know it will change the amount of yarn I use, but I think I'll try it! 💕
How much yarn did you end up using by doing the HDC? I'm making the first one and the SC are killing me - I don't feel like I'm making any progress - LOL I have 10" - but it took me 21 rows to get there.
I think that is so beautiful 😮🎉😅
I’m making this for the third time :)
This video helped me so much!!! Thank you!!!
Thanks for a great tutorial!! 💚😊💚😊

Mikey, how many yards of yarn we need to make particular size of this comfortable blanket pattern?
We appreciate you!
Can you do 2 rows of single crochets around at the end?
This is a nice tutorial! Im doing an afghan in Caron Big Cakes Mint Fudge ♡
I think I'm gonna need like 20 skiens 😂 My work is too tight.... The good thing is there are no holes lol.
I love your tutorials! Your the best! 😊

Is this the moss stitch?
I'm cconfused about 100g and 300g's I bought the 100g does it matter? How much yarn do I need to complete this project? Thank You!
I can't download the pattern that link goes to a star shaped blanket
I can't figure out what you did after you turned the work. you're talking about there being a space, but I'll be darned if I can't find it... 😂
It's where you skipped one stitch on the previous row.
I love your videos❤️❤️
So many of these patterns that say they are for beginners they really aren’t. I think whoever designs these patterns forget what it is like to be a beginner.☹️
is this similiar to the moss stitch?
Yes.
How much yarn do I need to use for a queen size blanket and what if I don't use the same yarn you use
Following. I have the same exact question. Thank you!
Why am I ending up with loose threads among my stitches? I tried this twice and I had big loops coming out of the rows- I gave up and did another pattern. Is it because I am not going to the "bump" row with the second row? Or is it because I am using a smaller hook? SIze M?
I have no clue how to change colors for this pattern. I haven’t crocheted in years. How do I do this?
We have we videos on changing colour. Several hosts have that if you need it
Hi Mikey I want to do a blanket ,with no holes if possible. I am using a bernat blanket extra it is size 7 weight. Could you suggest a stitch I could use. Thankyou
You could create it with single crochet stitches only and no spaces.
Why do you crochet in the back loop instead of the actual crochet stitches?
shit you make it look so damn easy!.. I'm just beginning to learn and that blew me away lol
In every row, only the chain one spaces are crochetted in across? (not including the ends of course)
Question. So when you are ending each row do you go into the end where you chained 1?
My edges aren't straight.
No, into the sc. If you are doing the ch 1, you are adding in an extra stitch. So your rows may be leaning or adding stitches.
@@TheCrochetCrowd oh thank you so much!
Now I know what I was doing wrong with this yarn before I watched this tutorial 🤦♀️
I'm so glad I watched this. Thanks Mikey😊
Love you love you love you.
its really hard to crochet the back loop of the starting chain, is that really necessary?
Mikey, what brand of hooks do you use? They always look so smooth and comfy to work with.
They are just generic hooks with no brand. I buy them online.
Is there another brand that has blanket yarn like this? I don't think my local crafts store carries the Bernat brand since I've never seen it on the shelves.
Bernat Blanket Yarn is available at Hobby Lobby.
I don't have a Hobby Lobby
I received mine at Wal-mart.
You can try HobbyLobby.com or Walmart.com or try michaels.com should have the yarn you need there.

Would I be able to do this for any afghan?
How many stripes are on the blanket?
Hello friend
Can you use a J hook with this yarn??
Stephanie Gregoire you can but it would be very stiff and potentially buckle.
The pattern says only to add edging to each side not the top or the bottom!
You can go all the way around if you prefer it or just to the side. You can decide what you most prefer.
HOW CAN I GET A WRITTEN SET OF DIRECTIONS, WANT TO MAKE AN ADULT SIZE AFGHAN?
okay, so you lost me when you start doing the stitches around the ends, I don't do that right? unless I'm completely done with the blanket? I just keep crocheting until the same stitch until I get it the length I want? and when I all done that's when I do the stitch that goes all around?
I realize you've probably already got your answer, but yes the single crochet stitches going around are the border and the last thing you will do unless you want to add more border to the finished project.
Can you use red heart yarn for this afghan?
cheryl redd you could, but just expect a lot more work. I'm sure it would look great!
You could also hold two strands of red heart yarn and work this pattern.
Im doing a blanket in the same size yarn and its gonna take forever, but its gonna be nice!
what brand hook are you using?
Shelley M boye
COOL BEANZZZ
I had almost 12 rows but I noticed my blanket kept going inwards. What might I have been doing wrong?
Sounds like you might be losing stitches some where. Check your stitch count at the end of each row. ~ Jeanne
Place a stitch holder like a safety pin on your last stitch. Move it up as you finish each row. Have to admit I saw on a different site.
It would've been nice if he showed more clearly when he went around to do the border
So this is just the moss stitch
Good boy
What size tools??
size N or 10mm hook. ( every hook is different, depending on who made it)
Would a 6.5 needle work??
