Literally, I have taken apart this blanket about 20 times only to find your video and able to do it! Thank you so much. I love your channel!

[@DownButNotOutYet]

Good afternoon Christina, perfect!! The blanket looks so lovely. I think you selected a perfect spot for using it. I think the finger knit/crochet is better, I am sure the thick rochet needle will give me some difficulty in holding it. It is such a pleasure to see you at work, you just have so much patience and perseverance. You are very encouraging as well, just a quiet determination to get the project finished but also to enjoy whilst working away. Hopefully you take a break and enjoy a delicious coffee or a rumble with those energetic hairy babies. The video was most enjoyable, there is always so much to learn from your videos. Do take care, enjoy a peaceful Saturday afternoon and keep cosy. Many blessings, kind regards. Elize.

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Thank you so much Elize!!!! Glad you liked it! Yes the finger crochet method is easier on the hands!! ❤️🙏🎨

Ty I’m a beginner always watched KZbinrs or my momma but it’s look like a relaxing therapy

I LOVE ALL YOUR PROJECTS. You should give classes because you are great.......many blessings,,,,,,MINDY

[@cassandrar7173]

Hello! By far the best, easiest, most classic, and relaxed "teach me how" video I have come across. I am hooked! 😇 A beginner who now has the technique, knowldege and "fear not" to create these beautiful blankets either knitted or crocheted, by hand or hook. Thank you!! Your companions too are lovely!

[@elizabethmaloneorlando217]

I always look forward to your crochet videos. Love how fur baby just can't resist playing with the ball of yarn. ❤🍂🍁🍂🍁🐕🐕🐕❤

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Thank you! 😊❤️🙏🎨

[@te9363]

Thank you very much for a simplified video for how to crochet with a hook a x chunky yarn. I have been crocheting for 50+ years, often I get people asking me to teach them how, I always suggest going to KZbin for how-to videos. Now I know I can suggest your channel foe ease of understanding how. The biggest challenge for me here is the price of yarns. Because I live on an Island, everything is imported. ❤

Glad it was helpful!❤️🙏🎨

You make it look so easy that I might even be able to make one. Might have to wait until after Christmas so I can save the extra money though. 😄. Thank you for being a good teacher. Ruth in Illinois.

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Thank you so much Ruth for your kind words! Totally understand about saving money! Trying to make DIYs that are budget friendly in these times!! So glad to hear you enjoyed the video!❤️🙏🎨

[@donnabamber7303]

Loved this one. I started finger knitting chunky blankets but have been wanting to learn finger crochet as an alternative, to make looser blankets and experience with some 6 weight yarns. Could you possibly do an additional video on finger crocheting the double and triple stitch? Those may be the wrong terms, I’ve heard there are American terms and British, there is a Half Double as well? Anyway I’d be thrilled if you would. No one else has done it. Thank you!

[@mon2dan]

Omgggggg so beautiful!! Going to try it by hand until I get my hooks- thank you so much for your videos! They are so well explained- your an amazing teacher!! Please keep them coming! ❤❤😊😊

[@dianefontaine8918]

[@poeticangelartbyangelabass3798]

I loved seeing both ways. I would have to hand crochet, with a hook I always do a double crochet, even if I started with single.

[@user-jm6pm3kr4y]

Thanks Christina. This was not intimidating as I imagined. I plan to purchase yarn and hook and give this a try. You are great at explaining the technique. Love the puppies being involved. Deborah from North Carolina 😊❤❤❤

[@nwillis259]

Would it be possible to get an image that shows all of your chunky blankets side-by-side so that we can compare the patterns and that includes the fingernails too? No I would find that really helpful when deciding which one I would like to do!😊

[@cindyconlisk1062]

Love the look of these throws, but I just can't get it. I made several of your finger knitted ones. They came out beautiful and knitted up fast.

[@verna0072001]

How many rolls of yarn do you use? How many weights does each one?

[@cynthiahillian]

Any clue how much this brisket would weigh? I want to make a weighted blanket using a Tunisian stitch.....

[@mon2dan]

Hi again, @TheReclaimedHeirloom, it's Candy in Huntsville, Al, so I started this blanket using my hands and I wish I could send you a picture! It's coming out very nice, but I have a question- is your blanket a bit heavy , I'm 6 skeins in and it does feel heavy- I'm using the Yarn Bee Chunky Knit because it's what I have and figure I would use it up, is this ok? Does the blanket gets heavier being a 5ft x5ft? I'm not complaining, but more just wondering if it's ok with the yarn I'm using? LOL Thank you so much for your wonderful videos!!! I cant wait to do more!!! Thank you Candy

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Hi Candy, So glad you’re making the giant chunky blanket! I have used the “Yarn Bee” from hubby lobby and used 6 skeins for a large size and you are absolutely correct that it’s not as heavy when I compare it to the “Bernat Big Blanket” yarn. The yarn size is about the same size. I think to answer your question, it should get heavier with a more skeins. This XL chunky blanket would feel lighter if I used 6 skeins regardless of yarn brand. So I personally think if you add 3-4 more you definitely feel more weight and heavier with all the softness!! ♥️♥️♥️ I used 10 skeins for the blanket in the video. Let me know if you do go for more skeins and keep me posted on what you think for weight! It already sounds beautiful 🤩 Chunky knits and other large size yarns are so much fun to work with! It’s a great way to learn and very therapeutic 🤗

[@brookH2OT]

The pictured finished project and the tutorial don't seem to be the same. May you provide a link to the pictured blanket tutorial?

[@sarahlewis201]

My blanket feels really heavy, almost like it should be a mattress pad. I'm about half way through. Does this sound right?

[@darkmooncastle2380]

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Hi Ana! It takes time to get used to the loop sizes, next time try a few rows first to get the hang of the loop size if its too tight just unravel and start again. This has happend to me when I first started out! ❤️🙏🎨
