    I've watched multiple mile a minute videos. You are the first one to specifically show to line up the panels in the same direction and show the right side of the panels. Thank you!

    You made it extremely easy to understand. The repetitions help the beginner to follow along. Thanks for this tutorial!

    You thought the video was too long, but speaking from a fairly newby to crochet, I think you did a wonderful job. You are a very good teacher!

    Thank you so much!! I am one of those persons who find the the repeating of stitches extremely helpful. When I get stuck I don’t have to scroll through the video to find where I went wrong.

    Using this video today to learn the MAM and in doing so reminded how much I miss the creator. Such an incredibly talented teacher. Says a lot when even after years and years I go back to this channel to learn... than a again and hope life has handed you the Peace and Joy you deserve. ❤

    I like this . Thank you . You are a good teacher and thanks for your time and effort to repeat everything so that we understand what we are doing. It does need to be this long so we know what we are doing. Because sometimes people don’t go long enough and then leave knowing not what to do. So my things go into the trash bag so now I know what I am actually doing.😇 How could we be bored ? This is how we learn how to crochet.

    I would like to thank you first of all for showing me how to really do a mile a minute stitch there was another woman on there that I was watching however my mile a minute stitches got very loose because she told us to use a different crochet hook and then the numbers didn’t match however when I got yours and I followed your instructions it turned out perfect just like when you have yours on the table it is wonderful thank you I hope to learn more from you good luck in the garden

    You're repeating yourself did not get to me whatsoever, how is a person supposed to know what to do if we do not sit there and hear it over and over. Thank you very much because I will be making this blanket and following you from now on. God bless and have a wonderful day 👏👏👏

    I loved your tutorial. You did a great job explaining each step. I had never seen anyone attach the strips the way you did.
    How many skeins of yarn would I need to make the 77 size afghan? I would use only two colors -yellow for the center and black for the border, college colors for VCU.

    • @TheNervousKnitter
      @TheNervousKnitter  6 років тому

      My panels are 4" wide so depending on how wide i want it, i will just divide my width by my desired length. So, if i wanted it to be 40" wide, i would make 10 panels... Hope this helps! ❤

    I love the repetition-it is very helpful! I like being able to crochet along or do other tasks while learning a new stitch (and if you only give the instructions once, I can't watch it while completing other tasks).
    My only complaint is that you zoom in very close to your hands and crochet very fast--this makes me feel nauseated/motion sick. This means I mostly only listen.
