I followed your tutorial and made a blanket for my girlfriend as a Christmas gift. I’m glad I got the idea to do this in late November because it took me a month to finish. Almost 33 hours of work. Your tutorial was insanely helpful and very easy to follow. Everyone I’ve shown has loved the blanket and says it looks amazing. Thanking you for that

Just finished my blanket. I used 5 x 223yrds which is 1115 yrds total. I also used a 8mm hook. I am in love with my blanket! Instead of 74, I did 80 and it is the perfect length and height. QUICK TIP, I know she says go to the second chain hole, but doing that made the first row shorter, so I refused to skip the first and go to the second. Thank you so much for this tutorial!

[@user-to1yv7tr8o]

This was a really good video on getting started on a blanket. I would recommend using stitch markers on each end of the blanket which helped prevent me from missing stitches on each row. It's also a good idea to measure your chain when you start out because your initial count may not be the same as what is shown in the video (will be different depending on the yarn you are using). I had to restart a couple times and it seemed that 90 chains was better in the end for the type of yarn I was using.

[@elsiehahn1418]

This tutorial is great! I couldn’t find the yarn recommended so I’m using 8 different colors, a few different brands, same size (6), and 100% polyester yarn, and only changing the color when I run out. They didn’t have the hook size so I bought a 15.75mm and a 10mm. 10mm works great! Even 15mm seems gigantic. Starting it was extremely difficult as I couldn’t see my stitches and even with multiple tutorials I couldn’t find exactly where to insert my hook. I’ve evened out since. One skein made 19.5 rows for me. I’ll update when I finish! Update: Finished! Took me about 2 weeks. I used 5 full skeins and 8 rows of 3 different colors. It turned out great! Very heavy and thick, and long enough to cover my whole body. Thanks for the tutorial!

[@starryfeii]

can i ask how many yarns you use?

[@elsiehahn1418]

@@starryfeii I used 5 full skeins/bundles or size 6 yarn. Then, I used a little bit of 3 other skeins but I’m sure you could use just 6 different skeins to get the same size blanket.

This made it look so easy that I had to try it myself! I wasn’t ambitious enough to do the full blanket so I did a scarf to try it out. I finished it within that same day after about 3 hours of work. It’s so soft and nice and it was easy to do after I got a pace going. In the beginning it was having some difficulty since after the first row I was trying to get the hang of the new double stitch but I got it!

[@WanderingWassoms]

I am a beginner and I just made this blanket. I love it! Only thing I wish I had done different is to have started with a chain of 125 instead of 75, which I feel makes this more like a baby blanket size. I added more rows for additional length as well. Thank you!!

I recently decided I want to make a Christmas afghan to have ready for next year, lol! In looking for a pattern tutorial I discovered your channel. I was SO impressed with the way you teach and explain everything. But the best part is how you so clearly show the stitches!!! Thank you!!! That's just what I needed to clear up some confusion. I got so excited and just had to start on the beginner crochet scarf. I am making several for friends as gifts for next Christmas. They are turning out great!

So order everything while I was on vacation so when I got home I had now excuse not to learn, everything I needed was there. I watched and watched and watched your video and I did it! I will say I am very proud of myself and I especially want to say thank you! Now I can knit, I can crochet, I can loom, and I also knit socks. Thank you again.

I've been crocheting my first blanket for almost a week now. A little here and a little there. I haven't picked up a crochet hook since around 2014 or 2015 so it's been a minute! A good tip that I learned is to complete a swatch of the project you're looking into creating. That'll build your confidence and will give you a little "warm-up session' before you get started. The blanket I'm creating is completely single crochet so easy peasy! :) I learned right off the bat as well: COUNT YOUR STITCHES!!!!! I count my stitches as I am crocheting and it keeps me from having to go back. I can't wait to complete my first mixed-color blanket. :) Thanks for the video.

Simple single crochet US or double crochet UK is great for pets beds. My senior loves hers. She doesn't get her claws stuck in it, as the stitches are tight. I used two 4 weighted strands together as I didn't have any chunky yarn. I used a 6 hook size. Thank you. Love it ❤

Thank you so much for this tutorial. It's easy enough to understand for a beginner like me. I'm making a blanket for my pets. ☺️

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I’ve been struggling to make a blanket and this has helped loads!!! I’ve sent in to my friend so she can make one. You truly made this a lot easier and I have completed 3 rows!

Thank you 🙏 so very much for teaching me,these are gorgeous colours and great work ❤

[@sarahjayne8243]

Thank you for this tutorial! :) You we’re so helpful! I’m an absolute newbie to crochetting and you made the whole process so easy! I made a blanket for my mom for Christmas which ended up being the perfect gift because she also just had a knee surgery and has spent a lot of time resting and recovering. She loves it so much and it felt good to give her something I made myself! It was my first ever crochet project after only practicing some different stitches. It took me quite awhile to finish but that was mainly because I didn’t have much time to work on it. Definitely helped me get the single crochet stitch down so I can crochet a lot faster now! Great video! Great beginner pattern! Great blanket! 🥰❤️

Gorgeous blanket! Thank you for sharing!

I've been trying to learn how to crochet for over a year now. Every video I have watched overwhelms me, and the patterns are simply too confusing. However, I found Bhooked (and especially this beginner friendly blanket tutorial) sometime last week and I have loved it! I am already finished with a large part of the blanket, and have really felt that I finally am getting the hang of crochet. I am still very beginner level, but I am definitely going to use B.Hooked for the rest of my crochet learning journey!

[@veronicamarquez276]

Thanks for the detailed explanation on how to crochet the blanket.

[@DenisEssiambre]

This is so cool. I made almost the same blanket this spring. I used Woolease Oatmeal and Charcoal in alternating rows. I used a 10mm hook and HDC in the back loop. I love it. Thank you.

[@bhookedcrochet]

Sounds beautiful!

[@anandersonnovel]

Yes! I prefer the look of HDC but this is a good beginners blanket. It’s just way too dense and will be nightmare to launder 🤪

[@nayera814]

how much yarn did you use?

[@Mak_irie]

Idk who needs to REHEAR THIS BUT PLEASE COUNT THE DANG LOOOPs😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@mn_ice]

I saw another beginner video that suggested putting stitch markers at the ends as you work. It seems like that might be easier than counting 74 stitches. Great tutorial though! I happened to pick up this exact yarn at the yarn store today, so it was the perfect tutorial to stumble upon!

[@rainjam1291]

This was the very first crochet project I have ever done in my life. It turned out beautifully! Thank you for being such a great teacher! It took me 7 skeins of each color, for a total of 14 using the Wool Ease #6.

[@alysongreen8663]

Did you tweak the pattern at all? One color calls for more yarn

[@rainjam1291]

No, I followed her directions exactly. But I’m assuming if you do all one color than you would need at least 13 to 14 skeins of yarn

[@shelleywelch03]

@@alysongreen8663 I bough the exact same yarn as this pattern and followed the pattern 1 to 1, using the same size hook and everything. For me I bought 9 skeins of Oatmeal and 7 of Petrol Blue. I had 3 Oatmeal and 2 Petrol Blue left over after I was done. So I only needed 6 skeins of Oatmeal and 5 of Petrol Blue. I found that every stripe was just over one skein of yarn. I could see someone modifying the patter to have the stripes 11 rows high to make every stripe one skein. But I will say that when the yarn arrived some skeins looked bigger then others even though they were the same brand and color so maybe have a bit extra will be good if you are ordering the yarn online.

[@LindsayJanzer]

Thank you for this! I was determined for my very first crochet project to be a blanket and this was so easy to make! I didn't follow the pattern very well and experimented to make it my own, but your video was invaluable in giving me the confidence to try this!
