You just brought back a part of my childhood. My aunt would make it really special around the holidays and let me sleep over. Every year the blanket would be left with a cookie in a stocking and a note from the elves that they left this for me to cuddle up until Christmas. I had to leave it on Christmas for Santa. Magically it would appear next year, even into adulthood we would check for the blanket. If we were naughty there was a piece of coal instead of a cookie and the same blanket in black with coal in the middle instead of the tree. Sadly,she’s no longer here and the blanket must have been left at the North Pole. Thanks to your channel I can make a throw and give it to my kids. Thank you so much for sharing this. Really love your channel and love the way you teach so easy to understand and do. I can’t really read a pattern, no one around me ever croqueted, except me, I had to teach myself without internet.

Hey Corina have you thought about doing a live session? We could do a fun chat and CAL?! With music low in background. That would be so fun.

[@rekhakandhai]

I would watch that

[@ronell10]

I would watch and also join in, I love live CAL’s

[@joanneore2358]

Thank you so much!

[@renabritnell5497]

This would make a pretty holiday pillow cover.

[@doninis1354]

You are so fast with the videos. Great pattern and again a very nice video. Thank you so much I would take a stik, (nature or bamboo) and turn it into a wall hanging some fringe ad the under side.

[@CarlaDElisa]

Yeah another video. You just popped in. Adorable.

[@karentzn]

This is adorable. Thanks for solving the white showing. Lovely pattern

[@justvintagecrochet]

Thank you! 😊

[@WarpingAround]

[@bonnieperkins1419]

Me too

[@norawillow3974]

☺my project list is growing! Love Love Love Love!

[@dani-cm1dz]

Everytime I watch one of your videos it feels like the mom from stepbrothers is teaching me to crochet 😂 (no disrespect just SUCH SIMILAR VOICES) i hope I’m not the only one who hears this and that I’m not crazy 😂 thank you Corinna for keeping me company while I work on my amigurumis!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@theresacopeland2451]

Just wanted to say that I made like 30 of these cute squares and turned them into a cozy christmas vest!! wonderful project, very fun to make. thanks for sharing this one.

[@theMermaidRhonda]

That's really cute! I was a teenager in the 80s and this is definitely something my grandma would have made. :)

[@LadyValkyri]

I'd probably use it for a pillow case, removeable for holidays. Great job, C! Threadhead Crew Hugs!

[@annetteferrari8093]

This will be my sofa Christmas pillow project! 😊🎉🎉🎉 Thank you - love it! ❤️

[@starbright47]

Hiya, Isn't this just lovely! It says Christmas to me, the stitch pattern so effective. A delightful piece❣️

[@janetchurchward9251]

I love this and love you and your channel. This pattern would make great hot pads in cotton.

[@pamandrews3220]

I like the green tree with the white yarn lines showing. It reminds me of garland.

[@fionag8869]

Super cute!!

[@TeaAndFloppyDisks]

Thank you for the tutorial! Even without making this blanket specifically, your points on tapestry crochet are very useful!

[@JeannaEnjoysCrochet]

This is fantastic because I bought this pattern from etsy 3 years ago along with the vintage crochet twist pattern and haven't made them yet. Thank you for the tutorial ❤❤🎄🎄❤❤🎄🎄

[@Pammy_Yolo]

Ohhh this is a gorgeous blanket! ❤️🤍💚

[@anaterrazas4596]

Very nice . I like it. Thank you for sharing. ❤

[@ingridverbree-barnes4745]

Love this pattern. Would it help to put a stitch marker in your corner chains as you make them? Then on the next round you wouldn’t have to hunt as the stitch marker would show you 😊

[@summer21forever]

I'm going to make some pot holders. These are incredibly adorable.

[@boxerdogsmom]

I would give it to Merlin, a gorgeous blanket for a gorgeous dog❤

[@Jammn126]

Oh my goodness…cool! On my list for next year. In process of finishing gifts for this year😢🧶

[@romystumpy1197]

I love it to bits ,so tasteful and charming ,and i prefered the crochet join rather than the whip stitch

[@annseigman1824]

I love that! It is so, so cute!!!

[@Teerae11]

So adorable ❤ it , thank you so much !!

[@karenh2890]

This is so cute!!

[@darrinmckeehan9074]

Love this square ❤😍! Thanks C😊🤓🙏! We'll see if it (mine)ends up being a blanket or just a few pot holders 😁.

[@lorriewhite7886]

Very festive! Happy holidays ♥️

[@kimmickleborough4920]

Lovely pattern ❤

[@rosemarycreollo4326]

Wow! That is outstanding! I've used the alternating sc/dc stitches in Santa beards & hat brims - looks just like curly hair/fur! Love how the popcorn stitches make the tree stand out so beautifully. Not up to a blanket, but this will make a beautiful pillow top! Soft size 5 yarn with the border extended to fit a pillow form. Maybe do the top popcorn in gold or yellow for a tree topper. I HAVE to make one! I've always wondered why you pull the old thread to the front when you attach a new color and then pull the old thread to the back to start working. Thank you for explaining that! Yes, I was that "but why" kid! Thank you for another excellent tutorial and for a new technique to improve my work!

[@bluestarfish95]

Adorable ! 🌲🌲🌲

[@phyllisgarcia8149]

I made it in cotton. I think it makes a great snack mat. ❤

[@aineoloughlin]

Wonderful pattern. 🎄 ❤

[@hobbiesandmoremaryking]

Love this , thanks! Going to make this

[@FlufferKnots]

I really wish all crochet channels would teach like you do. You are so easy to follow!!! This pne pattern I am working on right noow is driving me crazy! The girl doesn't speak english but the pattern is in english. I have torn each piece out probably 5 or 6 times now. I could have made this little cow several times over by now 😮

[@jenreeves7684]

These qre so cute! 😊

[@KatYoakam]

Very nice! Simple design, but so pretty. I will make this one.

[@tammyabel2737]

Lose the word simple. Simple

[@lauriethomas179]

That is beautiful 😊

[@joicosta-mello3861]

Love this pattern 😊

[@jodybloom73]

I'm totally going to make this..🎄🧶

[@hobbiesandmoremaryking]

Love this,making it now. Thank you

[@sarablankenship5146]

A friend sent me a link to your videos and I have enjoyed wasting too much time watching them. Keep it up! I have this pattern in a magazine in my basement. It was my moms. Either I stole it or she hid it on my shelf when decluttering. Not sure which. Most of our patterns are communal property. I made this when I was... 15ish. Mine didn't look that good. I also sewed the squares together with a yarn needle bc I couldn't make the corners look right when I was single crocheting them. This wasn't a vintage pattern when I made it. I kinda feel old now. :)

[@Demi.d3mi]

This is soooo cuteeeee

[@joseyelena2733]

Maravilloso!!! Esta labor la haré!!

[@dawn5227]

Was thinking that was make I nice cushion cover instead of a blanket.

[@gwendolynss]

So cute! You know, I don't have a Christmas blanket. Yet. My birthday is Christmas & you'd think I'd have at least one. 🤣 Nope. So, I'll be doing this one as soon as I get the yarn. I already went to etsy & got the pattern downloaded. Thank you very much 😁

[@anamariablancosousa7662]

Fantástico. Nuchas gracias!

[@sidmelucci3675]

I've said it before and I'll say it again: you make the neatest stuff! Okay, I've gotta make this pattern. But not as a throw. No. I'm going to use DK or sports weight (or maybe fingering, but I think that'd be too small-gauge swatches, ugh!) and make placemats! Six squares (two by three) should do it nicely. I'm not a fan of raised joins, so I'd whip stitch through the back loops only, which produces an attractive little ditch. ETA 1 hour later: Ordered the yarn! 1 skein red, 2 green, 3 "linen". How many placemats? Don't know. I'm just going to keep going til I run out of yarn. Love that border. I'm finishing up an afghan (classic granny squares with MC purple) and I've been puzzling about what to use for the border. I think I've found it-thanks!

[@JennCampbell]

Dark colors for a Victorian feel. Neon colors for pop art. Black and white for high contrast. So many ways to use one pattern! ❤

[@catalina5699]

When I first saw the thumbnail without reading the title, I thought it was the Lebanese flag 🇱🇧 lol. But very cute pattern. ❤️

[@GagaCiwi]

Beautiful Project, that yarn is so tough , I don’t know if I would do a whole quilt, could you imagine a stiff quilt. A Pot holder is in order, with a sandwich, open edge for gift . Anyway, Thank You for the inspiration.

[@justvintagecrochet]

Great idea!

[@thesilverpen]

I think I remember that pattern when it came out. It was one of the first of that "format" in the popular crafting mags and books. Is it McCall's? Seems they started those popcorn squares thing.

[@ingesexton811]

Imagine these squares as a sweater.... hear me out. You could decorate wach tree differently make them super tacky and make it your ugly Christmas sweater for the year... although ive always liked those sweaters personally...

[@irismadridpozas3699]

Hola, en Chile hace mucho calor para tejerlo como manta, pero sí les daré utilidad en forma individual, como adorno. Gracias por compartir, cariños.

[@lolapunk20]

you could do the continuous join method

[@tanyasnyder9033]

Omg I love this. Can I use the glitter yarn that is 4 ply?

[@justvintagecrochet]

yes! and omg I love that idea :)

[@stefanievance3351]

there is missing row right in the being (guessing Row 3) single crochet row. Jump cut. Bit confusing

[@BarkingBunny]

May make this with different colors cuz I need to get rid of some colors. How many average sized skeins would you say this will take? Sorry I have all my yarn in a bin without wrappers so I have no clue their size or how many yards they are.

[@janechestney4425]

Hi! I am in the UK and wondering if I can use Double knitting wool and maybe a smaller hook for this? I believe the equivalent over here to what you are using is Aran wool- at least that’s what Google says 😊. I already have some DK in white/green/red but as this would be my first attempt at a project like this I don’t want to buy other wool in case I can’t do this pattern. Any advice gratefully received!

[@drewrobertson-gouge135]

quick question (and sorry if you addressed this and i just missed it), but why does the pattern call for alternating the single and double stitches with the white on the cluster rows?

[@monkie9281]

thanks for the video! still somewhat new to crochet, would be useful to see how you incorporated the green in the single crochet row in the beginning since that is a new concept to me. i am having a hard time getting mine to look like yours, any advice? thanks! edit: also would be helpful to show how to weave in the excess yarn at the end, not sure how to do that successfully

[@ashlyndenny1770]

I’m stuck too! Did you figure it out ?

[@monkie9281]

@@ashlyndenny1770 hi! for the first single crochet row that uses the green, i did 5 white, 4 green, then 6 white and i felt like that turned out nicely and matched with the video for the next row. in regards to weaving in the ends, i looked up a few tutorials on youtube and then asked a coworker for advice and was able to weave them in somewhat gracefully lol

[@julianaspaude9189]

I have tried this over and over without ever getting to the end, something doesnt match up with my stitch count and im lost after row 2. I cant guess what happnes in row 3 trying to put it together from subsequent rows. It never turns out 😭
