🔥 Frequently Asked Questions:
Do you have a left handed version of this video? If you are left handed, you can convert ANY video on UA-cam yourself! Simply go to www.mirrorthevideo.com/ and follow the instructions to mirror flip any video to convert to left handed!
How much yarn will I need? This is a very tricky question to answer as there are so many variables! How much yarn you need will depend on which yarn you choose, the thickness of that yarn, your tension and how large you want your finished project to be. I suggest making a small sample first so you can gauge how much yarn you'll need. If making a crochet square, you can weigh your finished square to work out how much yarn it used!
How many squares do I need for a blanket? That all depends on the size of the square you are making and how big you want your finished blanket to be! I always advise making one square first then measuring the size of it. From there you can work out how many squares you will need to get the blanket size you want 😀
Do you have the written pattern? Yes! I have written patterns to accompany my video tutorials on my website here: www.hookedbyrobin.com The written pattern is generally released a week or so after the video tutorial to ensure there are no errors in the video itself and to make amendments in the written version if any are found. All the written patterns are FREE to access on my website
How can I print the pattern from your website? Do you have downloadable PDF's? Not at this time no. This may change in the future but for now, I only provide the written pattern directly on my website.
Can you remake this video so it is slower? If the video speed is too fast, you can slow it down! 😀 See this video on exactly how: • How to Adjust the Spee...
Why do you use American stitch terminology? I learnt using USA stitch terms, long before I even knew there was a difference between UK & US terminology! American terms are my "first language" so to speak. If you need a conversion chart, I have one here! www.hookedbyrobin.com/crochet...

Great idea for a weekend or a rainy & cold day! 💜
It's been rainy and cold all week here! 😅
@@HookedbyRobin Same here and I am thinking scrap busting project will be on the hook soon! 🧶
Oh, how I would love a rainy, cold day! 🥵
I just had to say that though this is an easy repeat pattern & works up quickly, it’s a really cute pattern. I’m using bulky, weight 5 yarn that is variegated & it’s turning out adorably! Thank you for being an excellent teacher! I’ve begun a deep dive through all of your tutorials!! Please don’t ever stop making them…. They are so appreciated!!!
Thank you so much! x
I'm using this for a baby blanket. I don't have a baby, nor do I know anyone who does have one. I'm just making a baby blanket.
Lol You could always donate it to a women's shelter. 😅
Thanks for the great tutorial!!! I’m going to be using the stitch to make a baby blanket. Getting started today. 😊💚😊💚
Just watched this, I think it will be my next project. Thank you, love your videos
Thank you so much Brenda!🥰🤗
Just love this cluster stitch to get rid of my scrap yarn. Thankyou
I always forget about how useful this stitch is, thanks for reminding me, as blanket season is coming, again. !!!!!
It is definitely coming Pat!😃🥳
Hi Robin. I love your tutorials! You explain everything so well. Very easy to follow. I started a pink one after watching the tutorial and it’s Turing out so beautiful. I’m a lifetime follower!
I've always loved the V Stitch, so I'm sure I'll adore this Cluster V. Bitter cold this winter so far, and need to make tons of scarves! Thanks for a great video Robin!! Love from the US!
Thanks so much for showing this pattern. I was looking for a quick & easy pattern for hats & scarves.
Definitely going to do a baby blanket using your tutorial. Thank you. 💖
This is now my go-to stitch...super simple and easy, and it works up pretty fast. Thanks Robin!!
You have such great tutorials. I am so inspired to make everything even if I just donate the pieces. I used to crochet when I was a teen. My mom was great at teaching us fun things. I actually made a beautiful sweater that in forever proud of.
Thank you for igniting the pain again 😊
Thank you so much Lisa, it is so lovely you are back to crochet.😃🥰
Thank You for a great tutorial on how to make this stitch. I'm making my granddaughter a Queen-size blanket for her bed and with this stitch I now know I'll be able to give her her blanket for Christmas this year. Thanks again, God Bless you and your family!!
Thank you so much for this great tutorial!! I can use the stitch to make one baby blanket last week. Starting on another one today. I absolutely love this stitch!! It works up so fast and easy. 😊💚😊💚
Thank for a lovely video. Even someone who has crocheted for over 60 years needs a refresher on a pattern that they haven't done in a long time. 😉🥰
Good Morning!😊 Fabulous idea using up the yarn stash, love it.👍👍👍👍👍
Coming back to this lovely pattern! Robin, I am hopeful that you and your daughter are feeling much, much better! I should try the Chunky Monkey yarn. Watching you work with it is very enjoyable.

Thank you for sharing
Thank you 😊
Oh Robin! I love it! How quick and easy! Thank you so much for sharing this stitch with us! Xx
Excellent ❤
Thank you Sue!
Well, my goodness, why haven't I worked this pretty little stitch. I make baby blankets to donate and love patterns/stitches that work up quick.
Can't get any easier than this. Definantely will go into my roation.
What a wonderful thing to do!🥰🧶
Thank you so so much for this stitch tutorial.
I've had over 1600 yards of variegated yarn and have been surching and praying for a stitch repetitive pattern that would go great and stand out from the variegation.
Bless you for this pattern. I love your tutorials but I can't afford to buy enough yarn to keep up with you. Lol..😉
The puff stitch is also AWESOME with variegated yarn if you're still looking for ideas! ua-cam.com/video/XVm-zuvruk4/v-deo.html
Brilliant
Thank you Pauline! 🥰
If you decide to change colors every one or two rows, using only 2 colors, can you carry the unused color up the side? I realize this would entail making a border, but I like borders on my blankets anyway? Thanks. I love your videos and have gathered quite a list of new stitches to try. Stay safe and healthy!
muy bonito me gusta con rayas muchas gracias desde España
Gracias Juani! 😃🧶
Could you use 1 chain between the dc clusters instead of 2 to make it a more compact less holey blanket? x
I’m loving this stitch! Thank you for sharing and explaining it so well!! I do have a question...do you have a suggested border that would work with this? Or do you think it needs one?
Hi Robin ! I’m actually making this blanket now, love this pattern ❤️ mine’s super colorful and a great summer blanket...I was wanting to make a border do ya have any suggestions 🤓
Really cute stitch - Ruthie new subbie here
Thank you Ruthie and thank you for also subscribing! 💕
🐐
Thank you for the great tutorial. I've worked this up with 5 bulky weight yarn. Fast and beautiful. Now I would like to put a border on my blanket. Any suggestions? If I simply single crochet, how my stitches per row along the edges of blanket?
Thanks for the tutorial so easy!! What border would you put on this blanket? Got lots of loose ends either side of the blanket.....
💖
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Robin, I finally learned to crochet about 6 months ago through your videos, so thank you very much. I am wanting now to make a cocoon style cardi, you know the kind made from a rectangle or square, would this pattern work, could I add a collar easily to it. If not what would you suggest, not granny cluster, bored of that now 😄
Beautiful! One question, to get a straight edge for last row, would i just singl crochet in each stitch and do one stitch for the chain 2 of the v's? Thank you!
I love this pattern, so I started one and I have been changing colors every three rows. What I was wondering is what is a good border color whenever you use all different colors? I am not finished with my blanket yet but I just wanted someone elses opinion.
Hmm it all depends really! I will either choose the colour I like the most OR the one that gives the most contrast :-)
Is there a count on how many change you have to have I think I missed that part love your videos thank you for sharing
The pattern multiple is 3 (super simple one to remember which is probably why it's one of my favourite stitches! No thinking required 😂) x so just chain 3 for as wide as you want your project to be! 👍
Hi I really love this and picked it up really quickly so what border would you do?
I personally leave most of my blankets borderless - you could put anything you like on really! Perhaps something simple like rounds of sc or hdc? x
Great for using up the ends of your skeins. What sort of border would you do for this project? Thank you for a great tutorial 🐨🇦🇺
All the ones I've made, I haven't put a border on as the edges are nice and straight 👍 (plus I am lazy haha!)
Thank you
I would like to see a cozy cluster ripple blanket please
I'll add it to my list! 👍
Would this look good in a single color?
Hi Robin, I love this blanket and would really like to make it. I’m new to crochet so only have dk yarn, would the blanket work in that weight of yarn? Thanks ever so much.
Yes absolutely!
Thank you very much for your help, I appreciate it xxxx
How many chains in total for a baby blanket? Thank you! Ricki💚🧡❤️💙💛💗😘
Hiya Ricki! It all depends on how big you want the blanket to be really! I tend to keep chaining until it is the width I want it and eyeball it - no set amount as such :)
For the ends, would it be possible to leave a nice long tail and create fringe instead of weaving them all in? How would I go about that? Thank you!
Yes absolutely! All you'd need to do is knot the tails together with a double knot at the point where you changed colour - then you can leave them as a simple fringe, add tassels to bulk the fringe out if you wanted or even twist the tails together to make a more fancy fringing!
@@HookedbyRobin perfect, thank you so much! Going to make a scrap blanket with fringe!
🥰🤗
Inspiring as always!👍💖
Easy to understand and follow! Amazing stitch!
Thanks for sharing!🙏🥰💗🌷💞👌👍👍👍👍
Question...exactly where, in the turning chain, do we change color?
I m making a shawl with this pattern...I want to add some other colour in d beginning but I getting trouble. If i continue with d pattern then clusters will b in opposite directions.
I m thinking to making that pattern separately n join.
Is there any way to join with this pattern? Plz help me
Is this as fast as the regular v stitch
Would this look alright in ombre colors ?
Yes absolutely! EVERYTHING looks lovely with ombre colours!
Thank you robin .. now I can do something other than granny squares... the only problem I'm having is that I'm finding my work is starting to curve inwards and not straight...
Is it the bottom of your work curving in like a u shape?
@@HookedbyRobin
Yes..
Ah ok, so that sounds like a tension issue (it is very common so don't worry!) I think your starting chain is a little too tight, or, you are relaxing as you crochet along. The easiest fix for that is to do the starting chain in a hook size bigger than you are going to use for the work itself (so, if you are using a 4mm for the blanket, use a 5mm for the starting chain)
Thank you so much..
Love all your tutorials and your amazing projects...thank you for your advice
do you have a written pattern?
How do I share a photo on here?
Are you on social media at all? You can share a photo to my facebook page :-)
Are you using English crochet stitches or American?
American 👍
Maybe a "strange" question, but is this pattern a "yarn eater" ?
I'm being picky, but why can't you say "...chain from THE hook..." rather than "...chain from hook,..?" Sorry, but I just find that nerve wracking.
I didn't even realise I said it that way until literally just now reading your comment! 😅
Lovely!
Thank you Gayle!😃
Thank you 😊
You’re welcome Rae!🥰
