  • How to Crochet ENTRELAC BORDER EDGING! Finish Those Triangles / Easy Tunisian Tutorial
    Let's finish the edges!
    Now you can fill in those PESKY edges on ANY of your Tunisian Entrelac creations! I show you how to make those half-squares, and it's just as easy.
    It will help tone down any curling and gives you a nice base for any border you might want to use.
    You don't have to settle for your Entrelac project looking like the bottom hem of Fred Flintstone's (or Barney's) clothes anymore! 😆
    Ciao friends! If you are so inclined, you can now buy me a coffee. It really helps the channel, and I could use the caffeine, so thanks! 😉 www.buymeacoff...

    OMG, I originally asked if it was possible to do your reversible technique on a horizontal with changing colors each row. I wish I'd found your channel BEFORE interpreting a poorly written pattern. I hated how it looked and, after watching your wonderful videos you sent me, I ripped out 19 rows. Yes, 19. Worth every stich out, too. The problem was the pattern was missing the very last slip stich on row 5.
    I am now on row 2 and there are no ugly gaps between squares.
    Again, Beth.....you are my new best friend. Jennifer

    I love tunisian crochet!! I crocheted a blanket recently, filling in the edge with the triangles. My question is about the 4 corners, is there a pattern for those corners to make the overall blanket squared?

    • @ThimbleHooks
      @ThimbleHooks  Рік тому

      Hi Regina! I have had several requests for that and am working on a solution that is easy (as I do) and beautiful. The problem is that with variegated yarn, like I prefer for these types of projects, these corners could stick out like a sore thumb. I am working on many projects right now, but I promise this one will make it to the top of the list in the next several weeks. Keep an eye out! Beth

    May I ask how many chains did you do for your baby blanket? The reversible one? Thank you 🌷

    • @ThimbleHooks
      @ThimbleHooks  Рік тому

      I'm pretty sure that I show this in the video jlee, but there are 12 squares that are 5x5 for a chain of 133. You can see how to figure that math out by watching the video here:

    • @ThimbleHooks
      @ThimbleHooks  Рік тому

      You have my attention Regina, but tell me more - I'm not exactly sure what you mean. Do you mean you want the 4 corners to come to a point/large triangle? Bethany

    • @reginasipes4248
      @reginasipes4248 Рік тому

      No, instead of the edge triangles pointing inward to fill in the zigzag edge, but an outward pointing triangle to make the blanket square

      Thanks for your reply! I've been fiddling around a bit myself since the baby isn't due until September so I have time. I've done a round using your "corner". I thought I'd try "reversing" the finishing half blocks. ??????

    I’ve FINALLY finished my reversible entrelac baby blanket (thank you!), and I want to fill out the V’s. HOWEVER…I am not sure I’m doing it right. I may have messed up somewhere along the line making the blanket, because not all the edges in the V’s look the same. So, does it matter? I mean, as long as I find loops to crochet into, start off at the top of one side of a V, end up at the top of the other side, keep going, and it looks decent and filled in when I’m done, it doesn’t matter how the sausage is made, right?
