Continuous V Stitch Rectangle and How to Keep It Flat 🧶

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Hi friends, I hope you enjoy the video. Last week I shared how to work the continuous v stitch in the round and today I have the rectangle for you. This also has a tendency to ripple and wave the bigger it gets so I hope these tips will sort this out for you. Also, be sure to check out the beginning where I share the easy formula for creating any size rectangle you like. It's super easy! xx

This is so pretty. I’ve been looking for fast to make blankets. ❤

[@PlayHookywithMe]

@@AlrakWeaver great! Yes, this would work up quickly especially with a larger hook and thicker yarn 🤗💕

Mohammed from KISMET YARNS has offered to sponsor all the wool for the happy face!!! Thank you Mohammed! Thank you KISMET YARNS!!!! And thank you Stuttaford Van Lines for always transporting our blankets to and fro across our beautiful land. We need YOUR PLEDGE to help create the happy face. Already Ambassador Lindiwe Mnguni from Bloemfontein has pledged the blue eyes and the red mouth (43 blankets). Thank you Lindiwe!! Those colours will be sent to you on Friday so your KnitWits can get going immediately!! Ambassador Gaenor Becker has just phoned to pledge 40 yellow blankets from Pringle Bay!! Thank you Gaenor!! Please be in contact with your local ambassador who will then add you to their pledges. Time is short. If you want to be part of this extraordinarily HAPPY BLANKET them we need your pledges now!!!

[@YARNBARF]

This is a beautiful pattern, and your tutorial was excellent!! I look forward to making this! How large can I make this? Thank you so much for your time and expertise! ❤

[@PlayHookywithMe]

You can make this as large as you like. 😀 choose the finished size you want and use the formula and tips to get you started 👏🏻🧶❤️

[@ebbiediaz4818]

If I want to make it 100 wide by 140”long

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Then it would be 140-100 = 40” long starting chain 👍🏻

[@ebbiediaz4818]

@@PlayHookywithMe would a 5 weight yarn work?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

@@ebbiediaz4818 I don't see why it wouldn't. 💕 Keep me posted if you give it a try.

[@dianeluttrell7139]

Its nor really a v-stitch it's just 2 dc

[@PlayHookywithMe]

When you place dc’s within dc’s , it gives the appearance of a v. You don’t need a chain in between to give that effect . But of course , add the chain if that makes you happier. 👍🏻💕
