I just started this tonight, making my dog a warm blanket that smells like me to help with his anxiety when I'm at work :) thought it would be really sweet for him
@@jacquicleijne9525 he loves it so much 🥰 he gets upset when i gotta clean it but once he and i cuddle with it together and its got our smell on it hes completely content snuggling under it lol
Thank you so much! You’re an excellent teacher and I love that you use a dark crochet hook, a thick white yarn and a brown gray background. Well thought out
I'm a veteran crocheter( self taught since I was 14....about 50 years ago!) I do love finding these stitches that are new to me! I needed a great stitch like this one to quickly whip up some new potholders for my new apartment,since I'm on a baking binge too lately,and have the time at my age to enjoy all my interests! Thank you for the concise and clear instructions! I only had to watch once and now I'm of to raid my stash and see what cotton yarns I have! Subbed and I appreciate you!
I'm making this for my senior 16 year old cat. Using two strands of 4 weight yarn in a mix of wool and acrylic, left over yarns I made into a huge ball. Size 7 hook. Thick soft and springy🐱💜.
This is the only tutorial for thermal stitch that makes sense to me. Thanks and look forward to the double crochet thermal stitch tutorial soon 🏴 x
Grrrrr!! This stitch has stumped me until today!!! With patience and your tutorial I believe I have FINALLY got it!! Thank you Sarah!! You're the best!!
I learned to do this and the double crochet version about 50 years ago from a neighbor, I have never seen this stitch since. I always used cotton thread to make potholders. I have shown a few people how to do this one, I am glad to see it out and about. I think it's a great stitch. Thanks for sharing😁💖
This is the most detailed and easiest to follow tutorial for the thermal stitch! I've tried to watch many other videos but none was this easy to follow, so thanks very much! Now I'll be checking out the rest of your channel!
The video was one of the best I've seen on youtube. Thank you for going slow enough for me to keep up but fast enough to keep it short, sweet and interesting. Love the stitch! 💕
Sarah, I had heard of the Thermal stitch but never worked it. Thank you for this tutorials Sarah. You explain the stitches very well and go slow enough for inexperianced crocheters like me. I kind of tend to the easier stitches. I just learned the sedge stitch which is so pretty and now I will practice thermal stitch as well. It looks easier than what I had thought. Thank you again Sarah.
Thank you so very much. This is the perfect speed at which to learn, and your instructions were so clear. I loved hearing your dog in thre background! Helps me remember you're a real person. Lol! I'm using this stitch to make a blanket square that I'll send off to a volunteer who will join it with other squares into a blanket to be donated to folks living on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. This will be a warm, squishy addition to help someone keep warm.
I've done my slipknots like that since my grandma taught me to crochet when I was 8 (I'm 65). I'll see other videos of people making slipknots and think 'it doesn't have to be that complicated!!!'
I think i finally got it. Tried this again and your method of starting with the row of single crochet is by far easier. I have seen some videos where you start with the foundation chain and jump right into working in the back loops. That can get frustrating fast. Oh and yellow yarn probably not the best color choice to practice a new stitch, but i got it.
It´s the first time I try this technique. It´s wonderful! Thanks so much! So clear your explanation, so nice your voice and very generous for sharing this with us!
That was SUPER helpful! As someone who started with knitting first this was a nice and informative video that was at the perfect pace for someone like me! Thank you! The stitch scared me before I watched this!
thank you for adding the stitch so I can see how it works... My dog was trying to figure out where the barking was coming from..too funny... thank you again... great teacher...
I am in love with this stitch! It is so easy and makes such a thick item! I am just crocheting away trying to decide what else to make with it after my face cloth is done.
Love it! Sarah I love your teaching techniques! Anxious to see your home decor spring/summer patterns and designs. I just took down all my crocheted Valentine decorations and now my home is needing some color!
Best tutorial! I especially appreciated how you actually focused on which was the first and second chain and what was the back stitch. So helpful, thank you! ❤
I live close to the Canadian border, and I've not been able to come up with an idea to make a crochet beanie/hat without lining that really works up here, not just a fashion statement. I think this stitch might be the answer. I will let you know! Thanks always for your wonderful tutoring.
I’m glad he wasnt too distracting! He’s a border collie who likes to bark even if a squirrel sets foot on the property lol I think this time is was a person so it was valid :)
I have never touched a crochet hook in my life and I was able to follow this tutorial! Thank you for going slow! I'm starting small, just making a pot holder. If this goes well I may try a blanket next!
Great for washcloth. I’ve made several washcloths using regular stitches but when they get wet, it’s too airy and not great. But this would be great for washcloth. Very easy to follow! It’s great for potholders and eco sponge too. :)
I don't normally like thicker projects like this stitch, but Evelyn Oxner came up with a great idea in potholders so I may just have to give this a go! Thanks Sarah!
Thank you for this tutorial! I am anxious to to a project using the thermal stitch! 😊 I look forward to more of your tutorials and, I like your little dog barking in the background! 🥰
Wow... Your patience is admirable! Beautiful stitches, beautiful, calm, explanatory tutorial. I love the denseness,and definitely will make a project! Thank you so much 😊
I love this stitch, I found it last year and used it with #4 macrame cord. Boy was it thick, I waffeled a little on the edges and forgot to close the end, but I like the overall look and feel of this tight rug, for rug is what thick cording done in this stitch is. I may have had the name of the stitch given to me, but that video was in English. Thank you for refreshing my memory.
I'm a new subscriber, this is my first attempt at a somewhat complicated crochet stitch. I was able to follow and perform the tutorial with you. I completed my first thermal pot holder, actually my first crochet project. Thankyou. I did have a little trouble keeping my sides straight.
Thank you so much for your comments and I’m glad you found the stitch tutorial helpful! Congratulations on your pot holder! It is a great stitch for one :)
Like your way of teaching. Soothing voice. I've been using this stitch for making pot holders and a blanket for a few years now. The only thing that I do different is the last row. Instead of doing a single crochet I slip stitch. To me personally it looks more like the beginning rows. But that is just my personal preference.
O love the stitch, it's really warm but stretchy. I am working on a headband for autumn/winter. I cannot imagine doing a blanket with this, the headband is growing so slowly already...
@@milkmaid4338 I made two headbands now. One in rows back and forth, the others in circles. It works both ways. In circles you have more control whether it gets to big or to small. Even though both got a bit to big because they are stretchy and I had to decrease more than a few stitches. Use a bigger hook, I used a 6.5 (my biggest at the time) and it's still a bit to stiff. But very warm in the rainy autumn right now.
Thanks for actually explaining what the back loop is and which stitch you go into on the bottom, every other video I’ve watched just shows you and it’s hard to see what loop they are actually going through.
I’ve used this stitch to make cotton sponges for use in the kitchen and I sometimes doubled the yarn to make extra thick and firm sponges. The work and wash very well.
This is a great technique! Making myself a pair of really fat solid potholders with double cotton yarn. Takes forever to crochet, but no more oven burns for me!
I chose to use double cotton, to make them as thick as possible. I used crochet hook size 4. When washed in hot water, they shrink a little, so I guess hook size 4.5 would have been fine too
This is such a good video tutorial. I was having trouble on the ends of rows. Also I don't turn my work, I keep the front facing me and I turn my hook a full clockwise circle at the end of each row which gives me a nice ens of row stitch. Your video clearly showed which helped me see how to find and hook that last sc at end of rows. That back loop of lower stitch kind of hides. Now my square is perfectly square. Thank you 🏵
What a great tutorial! I have crocheted for many years but I like to learn new approaches. Im now a subscriber. Thank you...note to self don't' learn a new stitch with variegated cotton scraps
Going to try to use this stitch for some cotton towels i think the thickness will add to the absorbance. Thank you for such a clear and concise tutorial ❤️
Thank you so much Sarah!! I really enjoyed your video. Learning this stitch for the first time, really appreciated the instructions. Believe me I watched at least 4 other videos and they were not anywhere near as descriptive as yours! Thanks so much! I am looking forward to viewing your other videos.
This video taught me that I always work in the back loop when making a foundation chain 😂😂 very helpful video cause I was not understanding the thermal stitch at all.
Browsing through and this video caught my eye. Was just curious to begin with, but now I can’t wait to try this out. This is the first video of yours that I have watched, and enjoyed it very much. I have subscribed and will now be browsing through your other videos as soon as I finish typing this. Look forward to more! Thanks so much!!!
I like this too💕👍👍👍 Regular and beautiful pattern＆Has excellent functions great crochet stitch!! Thank you very much. It was really easy to understand. The teaching method is always polite and helpful😊🍀
I don’t know that I will ever use this stitch because I have zero patience for work using a sc😂😂. However, I did hear you mention posting a video using a dc. I think I will look for it. Thank you for your tutorials!
I love how you teach and explain in details on how to crochet the thermal stitch. I really appreciate you taking the time to teach us all. God bless you and your God given talents in Jesus Christ wonderful name Amen, Amen.
This stitch makes a VERY cozy blanket! I've made several "scrapghans" with the thermal stitch . The only problem is that I now have to make more as our grandchildren fight over them when they visit! LOL 😁
It's also fun to do two colors, one on each side. And you cut a 6" fringe by cutting every color, at the end of every row. Built-in fringe! I always have trouble making sure I complete that very last stitch of each row... it's much too easy to stop one stitch early.

Can you do this in a circle pattern?
Hi! There is no video for the edging. It says "Check out this video:" and no video following that. I hope you update this comment when it's there!
Thankyou for the easy to follow tutorial. I made the potholder with ease. The only challenge I had was keeping the sides straight.

I've made blankets using this technique for over 30 yrs. For pot holders, I modified the stitch where it is triple thick.
