I love the closed captions that you have on your video. I am a deaf person, and I love to crochet. It's hard to follow when there's no closed captions. Well done with that, I hope you continues with the closed captions on your videos xx
I started crochet because initially i wanted to learn to knit. I saw a woman and her kids at chick fil a a few years ago and she was knitting and my mom and her got into a conversation and she reccomended your channel (i think this had to be before they implemented the bell icon) well turns out crochet looks hard and me having autism was like "mayhaps crochet would be easier?" and that's how I got into crochet. Thank you mystery mom lady who I met in a chick fil a! (this was in Gerogia if she happens upon this comment)
I started again and finished this lovely blanket, then backed it with To the moon and back material. I gave it to my great niece for her 6 month old baby Gracie at Christmas, she was over the moon with it and Gracie loves the feel of the yarn. Thank you
I just finished this blanket for my granddaughter! I'm so thrilled because I haven't crocheted in 40 years and I was able to make this beautiful blanket with your video instructions! THANK YOU!
how many balls of wool did you use? I am thinking of doing one for my sisters new baby but not sure how much I would need, did you also use super chunky wool?
I am a self taught crochet and have only been doing it for a couple of years. I am a lefty and taught myself by watching the simple crochet stitches videos by people like Mikey. I knew how to knit as my grandma taught me even though it was World War 3 between both of our frustrations as she was right handed and I’m left handed so we had to mirror one another and it was hard however before she could teach me to crochet she passed away. I just wanted you to know that I think your explaining the stitches is absolutely fine and your demonstration is nice and slow for me to be able to convert it to left handed. I’m even going to use in my projects that require colour changing your method by putting the tails of previous colour on the bottom and new colour on the top this is the very first video I watched that shows that as apposed to having a gazillion tails. Im glad you make mistakes and fondle with the tarn in the video as it makes me feel like I’m not the only one screwing up as I’m really hard on myself since I’m new so don’t be so hard on yourself your human, plus working with this particular yarn is a lot harder since it’s bulky. Thank you for taking the time to make this video as I’ve enjoyed it and just completed a blanket for my queen size bed. I m also going to put your trick of chaining with a bigger hook and changing to the smaller one to begin rows no one has ever said that in any video that I’ve watched.
I used this pattern and yarn 7 years ago for a baby. Needed to do another, so came back to you for a refresher in this stitch. Absolutely brilliant! Not sure if i told you this 7 years ago lol but.....Thank you so much!!!🤗🤗 ordering my yarn tomorrow. I remember after a few rows it WAS MINDLESS! Made a gorgeous puffy throw sized blanket that the 7 year old uses daily...😍
Gorgeous stitch. I’ve worked it using several different yarns, working with a smaller hook than the yarn band suggests gives a more textured effect, working a larger hook size gives a more Lacey effect but always so pretty! Using this stitch to make myself a pocket shawl in a chunky variegated yarn and loving it so far! Thank you so much for the tutorial! Xx
Thank you for showing us the Marshmellow stitch. I am in the mist of making a blanket using different thread than what you suggested and was amazed to see the marshmellow pattern still showed through and looks gorgeous if I must say. The instructions were very easy to understand and clear. I love this innovative way of watching UA-cam and learning a new stitch or pattern. Thank you again!!
I have used this pattern twice. I used Bernat Blanket yarn to make a sofa throw and now I am using Lion Brand Thick and Quick yarn to make a heavy shawl. So far so good! Thank you for this tutorial. It is clear, concise, and easy to follow.
I have 13 rolls of this bernat yarn and am so looking forward to making this. I just finished finger knitting a baby blanket. and it turned out amazing. now I learn to actually knit. but this yarn is so soft and easy to work with. and it is a thicker yarn. thanks for this video
I have an updated video and link if this helps clear up any questions. Thank you so much! 😍💕 Right Handed ua-cam.com/video/5RUdJCCaZpQ/v-deo.html Left Handed ua-cam.com/video/zg_FH0EkjOk/v-deo.html
I just finished making this baby blanket and I absolutely love the texture! My niece's baby will enjoy the warmth of it as well as the feel of the oh so soft marshmallow puffs in her fingers. Thank you so very much for the easy to follow instructions on how to make it!
I purchased this pattern on Etsy, I am a loom knitter but have always wanted to crochet. I have carpal tunnel which causes my dominant hand to fall asleep while I do repetitive motions so I was afraid to try. I am about 5 inches into this blanket and I love it so much! I actually think the puffy parts look like little roses. It's just beautiful! Thank you for the time and effort you put in to teaching and sharing!
I loved that you showed you're own mistakes as you went along. There have been so many times I thought I just am not good at this, I make too many mistakes. You're right about video's hardly ever showing any mistakes as they go along, which I actually think is misleading. So, thank you. I love this project. You are a wonderful teacher. I hope you make many more videos. Susan
huge thank you! I started a blanket with this stitch 2 years ago. forgot the pattern. been searching for a week. this is it! thank you and God Bless you
@Doogals1965 The info I usually put in the vide description so be sure to expand that section when you need it in other videos: Here is the info: Suggested yarn Bernat Baby Blanket (Polyester) Yarn weight Super Bulky (5-6 wpi) Hook size 8.0 mm (L) {use M for foundation chain} Gauge 3 stitches and 6 rows = 4 inches in Textured Stitch pattern For medium weight yearn such as Red Heart Supersaver or Lion Brand Pound of Love, use a J-10 hook and a K for the foundation chain. Cast on 108 stitches.
thank you so much for showing this pattern. i have been making tiny blankets for the ANGEL BLANKET ORGINIZATION for over a year and i'm always looking for special patterns to make. this is one of the easiest and prettiest patterns i have made and i have been crocheting for over 40 years. again thank you GOD BLESS
I think this may be just what I am looking for! Except that I want it bigger for my granddaughter who will be 5 in a few months. She is too big for a baby size but I know she’d love this yarn. I’ve been searching and I think I’ve finally found the perfect fit! Thanks Kristen!
FAB tutorial!!! Have just started on a charity blanket just because I've seen this easy-to-follow and well-explained video...THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! For those of you who think the wool is expensive, I just use 'Roys of Wroxham' 100g balls of Double Knit wool at £1.75 (the shop is local and I love their colours)...you can also get packs of wool, online, which can work out to as little as £1.00 for a 100g ball...x
Made this for my grandson who is due Aug. 6th. My son and daughter-in-law loved it! I'm on my second for a friend's soon to be born grandson. Love the pattern and was very easy to follow with your instructions. Thank you!
Just started crocheting a few months ago. Because I am new and not fast, I wanted a big stitch, big yarn, big hook, so it wouldn't take me months! I made my first blanket from this tutorial in a couple days! Love the video!
I just started this blanket in a throw size and I'm already loving it at 7 rows in 🥰 I really like how thick and cozy it feels...the squish factor is high with this one! Thanks for this awesome pattern tutorial 😊
I am working on the Marshmallow Crochet blanket however I am using 4 strand yarn and a K hook to create mine. I am also crocheting 3 dc after the sc into each 3rd hole. I have found that since I am using the smaller yard I can get a better poof by adding the 3rd double crochet to your original pattern. I have gotten lots of "oh that is so pretty" so far and can't wait to finish the blanket. Thank you for taking the time to show us beginners that even the more in-depth patterns can be done too!
I love this pattern - made it for my great-niece. I did it in a rich purple color with an eggshell white color. I made it to fit child size twin bed, actually approximately 60 in by 90 in; it's big large! Boy, did it kill my hand!! I did three rows of each color vs2 rose since it was larger. I also made a matching pillow. I stuffed a small white pillowcase and put inside and then I sewed ribbons on the one opening in to tie it closed for decoration. This way, the stuffing can be taken out to wash and the outer pillowcase as well. Now, my niece had a baby boy and wants me to make another one. I don't know if my hand can handle it. I also just want to say to goodnight kisses that you do great tutorials and love all your patterns!
Great pattern! Thx! Took me a few rows to figure out my technique for not having weird loose yarn from the first and second double crochet stitches in each set of stitches. Made this for a coworker's baby shower and I think she'll love it!
I hope this is the 1st of many more crochet-a-long videos! I love crocheting and been doing it for years but I also am multi-crafter in that I love to loom knit too. It gives my hands and wrist a break from the crocheting and still allows me to craft! You did awesome and I will be trying this pattern out!
love love this, made my grand daughter this blanket and it was beautiful, I did use up all the tidbits of left over yarn i had so it was a multicolor and it reminds me of spring when all the flowers are blooming thank you so much it was so easy to follow your instruction.
Annese Savage oh!! I'm sure it was just beautiful! If you are on Ravelry be sure to add it to your projects with a photo if you can. I'll be able to see it and feature. :-) www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/marshmallow-crochet-baby-blanket
I’m starting my fourth blanket with this pattern. Each one has been with a variegated blanket yarn and all for babies. My next marshmallow blanket will be for a chemo patient. I’ll add rows but use your pattern. Thank you for creating and posting this pattern.
Just a heads up, the pattern states that any multiple of 2 +3 will work, this is incorrect. It is actually any multiple of 3 +2 which will give you the correct starting chain. Took me an hour of scratching my head and 3 attempts to finally realise this. Hope this helps someone. Great pattern by the way, no hate here, all love.
Siem 1385 I have an updated video and link if this helps clear up any questions. Thank you so much! 😍💕 Right Handed ua-cam.com/video/5RUdJCCaZpQ/v-deo.html Left Handed ua-cam.com/video/zg_FH0EkjOk/v-deo.html
I've just ordered the yarn to do this project. I'm new to crocheting and have only completed a couple of scarves, each of which are uneven in spots, lol. The tutorial is very helpful. I've been practicing the stitching pattern with some left over yarn & I'm getting more comfortable, hopefully when my blanket yarn comes in, I'll have some confidence with the pattern! Thank you for posting the video. It's a beautiful blanket. I'm excited to give it a try.
I love this pattern...you do such a fantastic job! I've made 5 of these blankets so far and starting another one for my granddaughter who will make her debut in March! Thank you for a video that's easy to follow and never boring! You are a wonderful instructor....I'm going to tackle your knitting videos next! Love your work....beautiful!
Thank you for a first tutorial you did an amazing job. Bulky yarn is hard at best and you handle it very well. You've inspired me to try it. I loved your color choices.
So happy thinkable first pattern I've followed . Took forever to learnt he chain but I can't wait to show it off! Great soft warm pattern ! I'm using the black and white mix, red and grey skiens with a 10mm! ! Thank you again .
Making this right now with my Hue + Me yarn. (Weight 5) I did my starting chain with 6.5mm and the rest with 6mm. I hope that’s ok and it turns out well! I’ve only completed two rows but the marshmallows are nice and defined so I think I’ll be ok. Thank you so much for your content 🧶💓 Might be worth noting, I’m a newbie to crochet and I found your tutorials the easiest to follow. You explain things in a way my brain wants to retain lol ty again!
let me just start out by saying oh my stars that baby blanket is so darling! I just started crocheting, I have been wanting to for a long time... but I am going very ambitious with it, I am making a throw with a 10.0m hook and medium weight yarn... I'm stoked!
This pattern is awesome! I won #1 aunt award when I made this blanket for my niece. I used lavender, vanilla and green for the border I added. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I've been doing this stitch pattern for a little over a year (found it in "I Taught Myself to Crochet") but never knew what to call it.I think I've made 8 baby blankets and 4 afghans using this pattern, always with spectacular results. Easy, but impressive.
I've made 3 of these blankets now, using a variety of yarn and have been pleased with the outcome of each blanket. A very easy stitch to master. Thank you for your very thorough tutorial.
I love this blanket it is quick and easy I have not crocheted in 35 years and needed to make one fast this is a perfect pattern for that thank you for sharing this video
So excited to find this video!! I just bought the Bernat Baby Blanket yarn to make my 8 year old a blanket. I'm a beginner so I really appreciate you walking me through this project!!! Hoping it turns out as good as yours. : )
Really enjoyed the video. I will crochet my first baby blanket as I will soon be a granny.Thank you so much for sharing time and knowledge Milly - the Netherlands
love this pattern i just started crocheting this year and this pattern was easy and really cool looking. If anyone is having troubles trying to find good colors together i used light teal and white.
Hi, I love this video. You give very good instructions. Changing colors is a challenge for me especially crocheting the strings into the project. I will definitely give this one a try. Thank you!!!
I watched this video last night and started my project and finished it today, I followed the directions exactly and loved how easy it was! Great video and project, I subscribed too!
This is the texture stitch. For some reason there is another youtuber using my pattern calling the stitch the marshmallow stitch but that’s just the name I called the blanket. This is actually a texture stitch. Also if you’d like a border check out this video ua-cam.com/video/RbYXs-NFDxQ/v-deo.html
Thank you, beautiful baby blanket. You did a very good job explaining and showing us how to do it. I know working with such thick yarn is very difficult.
I have always wanted to learn how to knit or crochet. Unfortunately, I had no one to teach me when I growing up. I always felt that if I could closely watch someone do it, I would pick up on it pretty quickly. Now, I am going to the craft store to get yarn and 2 sets of needles. Not only am I going to learn how to knit, but my 14 year old daughter really wants to learn along with me! I also have a 12 year old daughter with Down Syndrome, I will be teaching her how to finger knit! She's going to make a scarf for her teddy bear! :) I think it will be great to improve her manual dexterity and teach her a little patience. I'm so excited to have found your videos!! They are clear, concise and just slow enough for us to follow along. TOGETHER!! Love, love, love!!!! Only 3 questions...How many stitches across (approximately) for a blanket, how many skeins of yarn and one more thing, Which end of the yarn do you pull from??? The center or the end??
Thank you so much! I'm glad you found me for you and your daughter. For finger knitting I have two videos on that. One is for making a single length and the other is attaching them as you go to make a blanket. For this video with the crochet blanket, the answer to your questions are in the video but also in the link found in the video description. For pulling the yarn I usually pull from the center but if the yarn likes to catch on itself (usually a specialty inconsistent yarn) then I pull from the outside. That falls to preference and ease of use personally for you. :) Thanks for watching and commenting!
Your blanket came out nice and I know it's going to be soo soft because of the puffy stitch and the type of material used. However, I don't know how you worked with that yarn! I tried the Bernat Big Ball Blanket yarn and it about drove me nuts. I couldn't stand the way it constantly twisted, the base chain was wavy when worked in regular fashion and waay too stretchy when doing a FDSC. The yarn.. it just... it drove me bonkers.
Thank you so much for the lovely pattern, i have made two baby blankets and they are gorgeous, my next project will be to do myself and large blanket with this pattern.
luisa marques You are welcome, thanks for the compliments! I'd love to see your blankets if you've posted on Ravelry be sure to add it to your projects. I try to feature people on the pattern page :). FYI I went to Michael's Craft store the other day and they have Bernat Blanket yarn for sale that are in more mature and fun colors besides their baby blanket line. It's just like the baby blanket line but the color ways are different. That should work as well if you make a change or want an accent. I hope that helps! :-)
Now that I've purchase the correct size hooks, I'm. looking forward to giving this Fantastic pattern a go Thank you so much for your wonderful tutorial
katy toy Wonderful! Thanks so much for watching, I'd love to hear how it goes. Be sure take a photo and tag me on social media. Happy Crochet! -Kristen
Absolutely love this new Grandmother to be and this is exactly what i was looking for, the yarn is soft, i am somewhat familiar with crocheting (Afghan project still waiting to complete-lol) you made this tutorial very easy can't wait to get started baby due in April, wish me luck in having it done, not yet retired-lol
This was much easier with you. Telling us to put the hook into the smaller space was the easiest for us to finally put our hook in the right spot so we could crochet this blanket -why do people make things so hard Thanks for the help. Now I can finally make this baby blanket plus that tail was a pain so thanks for that tooo
i never crochet untill the pandemic hit,cant read a pattern but the videos work wonders,im working on this pattern for my grandson for xmas,,doing it in hunter green and yellow,,john deer colors,,it is so easy
HI Kristen, this will make a beautiful blanket for my daughter Kirsten's first baby. Well done on your first crochet a long video for someone who like myself first love is knitting. Thank you. x
You did a Great Job! Thank you so much. I love the Chunky blankets because they are so easy and so cozy. Please do more crochet patterns and stitches. Very clear and easy to follow.
I would love to see how to put a border on this! I am almost done with mine- and it is gorgeous! Making it for my nieces baptism! This is only my second project, and I've never done a border- so unless i see it, I don't want to mess it up!! Thanks so much for the great video!!
Danielle Klezz Yes. use the same stitch pattern and at the corners make the stitch, chain 2, then make the stitch again in the same corner. Just continue around until you have made it the desired size. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
Wonderful, I got a couple of really pretty colors as a birthday gift, wasn't sure what to do with them,but now I think I will make me a cowl using this pattern.
This pattern is beautiful love the marshmallow but I used just regular yarn and did the stitch and the person I made it for just loved it. I know you do more knitting but I myself am not multi so please keep putting out crochet also thanks
Thanks for making a wonderful video that goes step by step. I am fairly new to crochet. I started last night and should be done sometime this afternoon. Works up easily.
I absolutely love this pattern. Thank you for sharing. I see where you indicated that you learned to crochet from Mikey's videos. He recently made a correction in the way he crochets because he realized he was hooking the yarn incorrectly by putting the hook over the yarn instead of under. An example is at time marker 10:55 you are going into the blanket with the hook and bringing the hook down over the yarn to grab it and pulling it through the hole. The hook should go under the yarn to grab it to pull through the blanket. Here's Mikey with his correction at time marker 2:35 How To Crochet Front Post Trebles
GoodKnitKisses You are most welcome! I am enjoying the marshmallow blanket pattern. It's so versatile and looks great no matter what the weight of the yarn is. I look forward to more of your videos!
Thank you so much for this video!!!! I truly appreciate the work you put into teaching! I just finished making this blanket. I love it so much I am going to have to make another one!
I love the closed captions that you have on your video. I am a deaf person, and I love to crochet. It's hard to follow when there's no closed captions. Well done with that, I hope you continues with the closed captions on your videos xx
May Jesus heal you, Suzi !!!

I’m starting my fourth blanket with this pattern. Each one has been with a variegated blanket yarn and all for babies. My next marshmallow blanket will be for a chemo patient. I’ll add rows but use your pattern. Thank you for creating and posting this pattern.
Just a heads up, the pattern states that any multiple of 2 +3 will work, this is incorrect. It is actually any multiple of 3 +2 which will give you the correct starting chain. Took me an hour of scratching my head and 3 attempts to finally realise this. Hope this helps someone.
Great pattern by the way, no hate here, all love.
Siem 1385 I have an updated video and link if this helps clear up any questions. Thank you so much! 😍💕 Right Handed ua-cam.com/video/5RUdJCCaZpQ/v-deo.html

Made twin size for my daughter to use when rocking the baby and it is absolutely gorgeous! And it was so easy. I love this one 💜
This is my favorite kind of yarn. I'm currently using this kind of yarn to make my blanket. It's super warm and cozy.
I agree, its so cuddly and I miss parting with them. I made 3 recently for new little babies and almost want to make a big one for myself! LOL
I've just ordered the yarn to do this project. I'm new to crocheting and have only completed a couple of scarves, each of which are uneven in spots, lol. The tutorial is very helpful. I've been practicing the stitching pattern with some left over yarn & I'm getting more comfortable, hopefully when my blanket yarn comes in, I'll have some confidence with the pattern! Thank you for posting the video. It's a beautiful blanket. I'm excited to give it a try.
Lisa Padilla Arbulu Oh thats wonderful, thanks so much
I am so excited to try this blanket. It looks so soft and fluffy and no open spaces for little baby toes and fingers to get caught in. :)
I love this pattern...you do such a fantastic job! I've made 5 of these blankets so far and starting another one for my granddaughter who will make her debut in March! Thank you for a video that's easy to follow and never boring! You are a wonderful instructor....I'm going to tackle your knitting videos next! Love your work....beautiful!
I am crocheting this blanket and I love the pattern. Plan to give the blanket to my first grand baby that's due in Aug. Thank you for sharing.
I love this pattern. I always go back to refresh my mind.
I love this marshmallow blanket . So easy , you are a great instructor! Thanks!
Thank you for a first tutorial you did an amazing job. Bulky yarn is hard at best and you handle it very well. You've inspired me to try it. I loved your color choices.
+Sharon French Aww thanks you so much for your sweet words Sharon! -Kristen
So happy thinkable first pattern I've followed . Took forever to learnt he chain but I can't wait to show it off! Great soft warm pattern ! I'm using the black and white mix, red and grey skiens with a 10mm! ! Thank you again .
Making this right now with my Hue + Me yarn. (Weight 5) I did my starting chain with 6.5mm and the rest with 6mm. I hope that’s ok and it turns out well! I’ve only completed two rows but the marshmallows are nice and defined so I think I’ll be ok. Thank you so much for your content 🧶💓
Might be worth noting, I’m a newbie to crochet and I found your tutorials the easiest to follow. You explain things in a way my brain wants to retain lol ty again!
Ive been looking for a nice baby blanket pattern and i think this is the one i will use now! Thankyou so much its lovely and seems quite easy to do!
AllThingsKerri Thanks so much! Glad you like it :-)
let me just start out by saying oh my stars that baby blanket is so darling!
I just started crocheting, I have been wanting to for a long time... but I am going very ambitious with it, I am making a throw with a 10.0m hook and medium weight yarn... I'm stoked!
Awesome! Thanks for watching and commenting!

This pattern is awesome! I won #1 aunt award when I made this blanket for my niece. I used lavender, vanilla and green for the border I added. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I've been doing this stitch pattern for a little over a year (found it in "I Taught Myself to Crochet") but never knew what to call it.I think I've made 8 baby blankets and 4 afghans using this pattern, always with spectacular results. Easy, but impressive.
corner moose Thanks so much!!
I've made 3 of these blankets now, using a variety of yarn and have been pleased with the outcome of each blanket. A very easy stitch to master. Thank you for your very thorough tutorial.
Thanks for this pattern, it was easy to follow and it worked up very quickly. I made it for a co-worker and I think she will appreciate it.
I love this blanket it is quick and easy I have not crocheted in 35 years and needed to make one fast this is a perfect pattern for that thank you for sharing this video
Sharon McGaha Stone Yay! I hope your blanket is going well. :-)
Thanks Kristen. I love this yarn, so soft and thick, perfect for quick baby blankets.
Thanks so much craftymom7! I always love getting your comments. Makes my day :-) -Kristen
GoodKnitKisses Awww your welcome, Kristen, You made my day today , as well. Thanks :)
So excited to find this video!! I just bought the Bernat Baby Blanket yarn to make my 8 year old a blanket. I'm a beginner so I really appreciate you walking me through this project!!! Hoping it turns out as good as yours. : )
That's great! I'd love to see it
Really enjoyed the video. I will crochet my first baby blanket as I will soon be a granny.Thank you so much for sharing time and knowledge Milly - the Netherlands
love this pattern i just started crocheting this year and this pattern was easy and really cool looking. If anyone is having troubles trying to find good colors together i used light teal and white.
+Aldrich_ 1221 Thanks! Yes, i agree. Recently I did a 3 color version with White, Aqua (nearly a teal) and Grey. it turned out great!
Hi, I love this video. You give very good instructions. Changing colors is a challenge for me especially crocheting the strings into the project.
I will definitely give this one a try. Thank you!!!
I watched this video last night and started my project and finished it today, I followed the directions exactly and loved how easy it was! Great video and project, I subscribed too!
Mandy Peyton Oh wonderful, I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for subscribing! :-)
This is the texture stitch. For some reason there is another youtuber using my pattern calling the stitch the marshmallow stitch but that’s just the name I called the blanket. This is actually a texture stitch. Also if you’d like a border check out this video ua-cam.com/video/RbYXs-NFDxQ/v-deo.html
Thank you, beautiful baby blanket. You did a very good job explaining and showing us how to do it. I know working with such thick yarn is very difficult.
I love this pattern because it is gorgeous. Thank you so much my baby is going to love it.
Thanks so much, I hope so!
I LOVE THE WAY FOR THE EXPLANATIONS OF THE PATTERN
I have always wanted to learn how to knit or crochet. Unfortunately, I had no one to teach me when I growing up. I always felt that if I could closely watch someone do it, I would pick up on it pretty quickly. Now, I am going to the craft store to get yarn and 2 sets of needles. Not only am I going to learn how to knit, but my 14 year old daughter really wants to learn along with me! I also have a 12 year old daughter with Down Syndrome, I will be teaching her how to finger knit! She's going to make a scarf for her teddy bear! :) I think it will be great to improve her manual dexterity and teach her a little patience. I'm so excited to have found your videos!! They are clear, concise and just slow enough for us to follow along. TOGETHER!! Love, love, love!!!!
Only 3 questions...How many stitches across (approximately) for a blanket, how many skeins of yarn and one more thing, Which end of the yarn do you pull from??? The center or the end??
Thank you so much! I'm glad you found me for you and your daughter. For finger knitting I have two videos on that. One is for making a single length and the other is attaching them as you go to make a blanket. For this video with the crochet blanket, the answer to your questions are in the video but also in the link found in the video description. For pulling the yarn I usually pull from the center but if the yarn likes to catch on itself (usually a specialty inconsistent yarn) then I pull from the outside. That falls to preference and ease of use personally for you. :) Thanks for watching and commenting!
I thought your tutorial on the baby blanket was great. I can't wait to go get some of the yarn and start one.
Your blanket came out nice and I know it's going to be soo soft because of the puffy stitch and the type of material used. However, I don't know how you worked with that yarn! I tried the Bernat Big Ball Blanket yarn and it about drove me nuts. I couldn't stand the way it constantly twisted, the base chain was wavy when worked in regular fashion and waay too stretchy when doing a FDSC. The yarn.. it just... it drove me bonkers.
Wow! Thank you so much for this video, the pattern is perfect for this yarn and easy while watching tv.
Awesome video. I have a blanket my grandmother made for me using this pattern. I could not get it figured out until watching this video.
That's great, glad to help! Thanks for watching and letting me know. Very cool. -Kristen
I really love the blanket, n how u explain it is awesome for everyone. Thanks, I'll make it for my niece. 💕
I love this yarn and your pattern. I have on going orders for this yarn. So fluffy n soft for baby. Mums love it.
Jan Williams Oh thank you so much!
Found you on google search and I really enjoyed watching your video. Very informative and appreciated the pattern and all your tips! Thanks!
Thank you so much for the lovely pattern, i have made two baby blankets and they are gorgeous, my next project will be to do myself and large blanket with this pattern.
luisa marques You are welcome, thanks for the compliments! I'd love to see your blankets if you've posted on Ravelry be sure to add it to your projects. I try to feature people on the pattern page :). FYI I went to Michael's Craft store the other day and they have Bernat Blanket yarn for sale that are in more mature and fun colors besides their baby blanket line. It's just like the baby blanket line but the color ways are different. That should work as well if you make a change or want an accent. I hope that helps! :-)
That was so mesmerizing, before I knew it, I had already watched about 25 minutes of it... You make crochet look so easy! :-)
Great stitch.. It's a lot like my fav...the closed she'll stitch... Thanks.
Now that I've purchase the correct size hooks, I'm. looking forward to giving this Fantastic pattern a go Thank you so much for your wonderful tutorial
katy toy Wonderful! Thanks so much for watching, I'd love to hear how it goes. Be sure take a photo and tag me on social media. Happy Crochet! -Kristen
Absolutely love this new Grandmother to be and this is exactly what i was looking for, the yarn is soft, i am somewhat familiar with crocheting (Afghan project still waiting to complete-lol) you made this tutorial very easy can't wait to get started baby due in April, wish me luck in having it done, not yet retired-lol
+Mary Ann Wengyn oh wonderful, thank you so much! ...and CONGRATULATIONS! -Kristen
Did this baby blanket in 2 days with a trim love it
Victoria Castaneda outstanding! I'd love to see it. Will you post it on social media and tag goodknitkisses?
I already gave it away as a gift
This was much easier with you. Telling us to put the hook into the smaller space was the easiest for us to finally put our hook in the right spot so we could crochet this blanket -why do people make things so hard Thanks for the help. Now I can finally make this baby blanket plus that tail was a pain so thanks for that tooo
I can't wait to get this pattern and do the blanket. I love it! Thank you
i never crochet untill the pandemic hit,cant read a pattern but the videos work wonders,im working on this pattern for my grandson for xmas,,doing it in hunter green and yellow,,john deer colors,,it is so easy
HI Kristen, this will make a beautiful blanket for my daughter Kirsten's first baby. Well done on your first crochet a long video for someone who like myself first love is knitting. Thank you. x
You did a Great Job! Thank you so much. I love the Chunky blankets because they are so easy and so cozy. Please do more crochet patterns and stitches. Very clear and easy to follow.
Thanks so much! Yes, I plan to do more crochet videos very soon. Actually a series on how to read patterns will include crochet! :-)
I would love to see how to put a border on this! I am almost done with mine- and it is gorgeous! Making it for my nieces baptism! This is only my second project, and I've never done a border- so unless i see it, I don't want to mess it up!! Thanks so much for the great video!!
Danielle Klezz Yes. use the same stitch pattern and at the corners make the stitch, chain 2, then make the stitch again in the same corner. Just continue around until you have made it the desired size. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
Love this blanket!!!!! People love it at the baby shower
Wonderful, I got a couple of really pretty colors as a birthday gift, wasn't sure what to do with them,but now I think I will make me a cowl using this pattern.
It was a really good tutorial. You really zero in on the fine-tuning. Thank you.
Love this pattern.I've done it in multi color pastel and it's lovely.
Thanks Kimmie! Please share your photos on our Facebook Page! :-) facebook.com/goodknitkissesUA-cam
Thank you! I love this pattern. I’m using big twist bulky. It’s looking good!🎉
Love your video! You take your time and explain very well! Thank you!
This pattern is beautiful love the marshmallow but I used just regular yarn and did the stitch and the person I made it for just loved it. I know you do more knitting but I myself am not multi so please keep putting out crochet also thanks
Cheryl Zamora Thank you so much, that's means a lot!
Thanks so much! You're a very good teacher. I've always had trouble with the edge and you explained that very well for me.

Thanks for making a wonderful video that goes step by step. I am fairly new to crochet. I started last night and should be done sometime this afternoon. Works up easily.
Oh wonderful! Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
thank you for your video, i really enjoy crocheting along with you and your voice is very pleasant which makes it easy to learn this pattern.
I just viewed your other video, I prefer the bernat blanket yarn. I see you came in 4 instead of 3. Thanks again, but I like this pattern :)
Love your tutorial!
Thank you so much! This marshmallow blanket is adorable! can’t wait to do this.
Subscribing today.
Thank you!
I absolutely love this pattern. Thank you for sharing. I see where you indicated that you learned to crochet from Mikey's videos. He recently made a correction in the way he crochets because he realized he was hooking the yarn incorrectly by putting the hook over the yarn instead of under. An example is at time marker 10:55 you are going into the blanket with the hook and bringing the hook down over the yarn to grab it and pulling it through the hole. The hook should go under the yarn to grab it to pull through the blanket. Here's Mikey with his correction at time marker 2:35 How To Crochet Front Post Trebles
Sue thank you sooooo much!!!! I really appreciate it. You rock! :-)
GoodKnitKisses You are most welcome! I am enjoying the marshmallow blanket pattern. It's so versatile and looks great no matter what the weight of the yarn is. I look forward to more of your videos!

Thank you so much for this video!!!! I truly appreciate the work you put into teaching! I just finished making this blanket. I love it so much I am going to have to make another one!
Awesome tip- I haven't heard from other tutorials regarding larger hook for foundation chain. Easy to follow along. Thanks
