Antique Christmas Afghan - Crochet Tutorial PART ONE -

[@claudiagrady5309]

You are such a good teacher! Thank you.

[@dianarodriguez4581]

You are really a great teacher. Very helpful and very professional. I'm going to do this Afghan for my 3 children. They are married and I have grandchildren too. Is going to be a present to remember. Thank you so much.

[@mistyblue5312]

Hi Ms Glenda. This is 2 years old, but here I am, looking at this lovely tutorial. It’s so versatile it could be made with Christmas colours or any colour to suit the season. I totally love these squares. Your pace of teaching each row is very patient and comprehensive. Thank you ❤.

[@06foanan]

God has given YOU a blessed gift. So love all you do to. Such great videos. Can learn so much easier

[@rjsmommy3515]

I am so glad this is still here. I have made 3 of these in 2020 and my friends mother in law saw it while she was unpacking from a move recently and she fell in love with so. My friend asked me if I could make another one and I said of course. I just needed a reminder of how to make the blocks. Thank you so much for sharing your talent.

[@jewellrex4106]

You do such an amazing job with everything you make. If you don’t know how to crochet, you will if you watch Glenda,s tutorials and pay attention to what she’s showing you. Glenda is truly fantastic in showing how to crochet. Love you. Keep up the great work you are doing.

[@suealby5233]

Thank you creative grandma you are so precise you take your time to show us every step I am so pleased with this one too I am definitely going to make one for this Christmas thank you so much again

[@kelliryan464]

Beautiful Block. Thank you. This looks very versatile. Change up the colors and it could be a Sunflower blanket. It could be a daisy or a wild flower (any spring flower) so boy do we need to get busy.

[@dmtnw4480]

Wow looks wonderful, you designed a great Afghan thank you for sharing and doing a tutorial for it God Bless you

[@mariannesalvati8271]

I have watched a lot of crochet videos to learn and follow along. YOU are absolutely the best so far with your detailed explanations and the way you show each stitch slowly!! Amazing - you make it seem so easy.

[@dianapollex3266]

First video of yours, but not the last. I absolutely love that you take us thru the whole block and not just a sample. TY 🥰

[@kl8132]

Glenda I love your patterns and videos, they are so easy to follow and you're a great teacher. Thank you

[@elizabethkoehl6457]

I just finished this afghan and it turned out beautiful! Thanks for the easy to follow tutorial.

[@MarnysCrochetandCrafts]

I've been using the Hobby Lobby metallic Christmas colors for placemats and love it. I think I'll use the same thing for this blanket.

[@margewerden6675]

OH GLENDA... this one is just SO SO SO PRETTY!!!!!

[@TheKaydie]

I have just finished one block and it is so pretty. Making this for a good friend for Christmas. My block measure's 12 inches but I don't think that will hurt. Must crochet looser. Love the block will make a beautiful blanket.

[@cherylheming1714]

This afghan reminds me of an afghan and pillows that my Mother crocheted many years ago, it's beautiful.

[@TheBabeluvr]

I still don't have my second granny done yet. But this? Perfect! I am loving that you used cream. So rich looking! You are MY teacher!

[@theresemicallef90]

Thanks so much Glenda I bought the pattern and the yarn from Mary Maxim and I just finished my first block. I'm so excited the yarn is beautiful and soft .A big thank you goes to you for the excellent explanation in your tutorials. I watch your tutorials over and over and I learned a lot. I am super happy even though the shipping of the yarn was a bit expensive , but it's really worth it . Thanks and be safe everyone, from the island of Malta 🇲🇹 Europe

[@pamcarter4980]

I am loving this. It so pretty and reminds me if my Grandma. Thank you for the videos!

[@1jmass]

Simple, yet so very pretty. I just need to remember to make my stitches into the spaces of the corners and into the stitches on the sides.

[@Jammn126]

Oh my goodness! Gorgeous! Thank you, Glenda!❤️🧶

[@kevinhaynes1463]

Glenda, I know that not many men crochet, but I do. I love your videos and think you are a fun hoot. Great job!!!

[@CreativeGrandma]

Hi Kevin, welcome, I am so happy you are enjoying my channel, yes it is true not many men crochet but in my family my uncle crochets my son and my grandson all crochet, it is wonderful to have you as part of my crochet channel.

[@jeanniewright2554]

Thanks especially for sharing the information about the different yarns! It will save a lot of time and angst- not to mention money!!!

[@shirleydunbar8825]

I’ve never seen so much yarn, love all the beautiful colors

[@rebeccabarnes3911]

I really like the Christmas squares.

[@danettetrostle7173]

I did it! I love this block. I started using my Christmas yarn..and ended up frogging, so I got out my cotton yarn and made the block as my sample. But, now I can use my sample block as a dishcloth so a win..win! Now that I know what I’m doing I’ll use my Christmas Yarn and make the blanket. 🧶😎

[@sandrabenefield3899]

You have chosen some beautiful yarn and created an absolutely fabulous pattern for this Afghan. Thank you for all your hard work. You are appreciated. Love the nails!!!!!

[@ellenstaley7219]

A wonderful tutorial you could not get better.Thankyou

[@ClubCrafteria]

You are doing a great job. All your project looks amazing. Easy to follow the steps. Lovely share.

[@virginiakroll1581]

Beautiful afghan You always give us the best instructions for crocheting I have really enjoyed watching you and making some of your designs I have to go get the yarn & will be making this beautiful Afghan. Please keep designing and teaching

[@jeanmaggiore3150]

Hi glenda. I made this afghan using Hobby Lobby I Love This Yarn Metallic. Very affordable and often on sale and free shipping on orders over $50. Machine washable and dryable

[@dianetaylor1699]

I just wanted to say thank you for the tutorial of this blanket. I finished it last week and I love it! Wonderful pattern that worked up quickly and easily. I used yarn from my stash so I don't have all the sparkles, but I did have a silky antique gold that I made the centers of. It looks so elegant. Already have gotten lots of compliments - Thank you again ❤️

[@julieriddle7419]

Glenda! Hope I spelled your name correctly. I just want to take a minute to let you know through all three how much I appreciate your crochet tutorials. You make it so easy to follow along for a novice crocheter. I realize you made this tutorial a couple of years ago but everything you do shows that you really care about helping people learn the craft of crochet. Thank you so much! May your holidays be peaceful and joyful ❄️☃️🧑‍🎄🎄

[@leotaandrews5224]

I'm So inspired😊 Thank you for your beautiful tutorials I appreciate you taking your time to teach us.

[@freddiemanley6818]

I bought yarn at hobby lobby,made 7 squares,so far,looks like its going to be beautiful ,thanks for the video

[@crochettimewithdonnaarsena2946]

I bought the yarn back when you first told us about this, and just bought the pattern! Yay! I have yarn and pattern and can get started as soon as I can! Thank you!

[@CreativeGrandma]

Donna you were smart to buy your yarn back then it all sold out at Premier the only color left is the green gold. So happy you were able to get the yarn

[@EssieLaudermilt]

I need part 2 of the antique Christmas Afghan. Thank you I really enjoyed this pattern.

[@EssieLaudermilt]

Please let me know where to find the next part 2 for the antique Christmas afghan.. Love this so much. Thank you.

[@EssieLaudermilt]

I still need the part 2 for the antique Christmas Afghan. I only need 10 blocks. Love love it. You make it very easy to follow. Thank you.

[@EssieLaudermilt]

I lost part 2 of the antique christmas afghan

[@lesleyphillips931]

This is beautiful. Unfortunately here in UK I can't find the super price reduction for the yarn to make a full size cover. However I won't give up. Maybe make some place setting mats in summer colours to practise the pattern. Thank you for your clear instructions and explanation. Btw, there are some men designing and making crochet work on KZbin and they do some good stuff 😊. It's a skill which must not die out.

[@leighmartin5596]

Love the Afghan Patterns I love to Crochet .

[@cindycrabtree2164]

Beautiful

[@harriettb2778]

I soooo want to make this for Christmas this year, to be auctioned at my church during our Lottie Moon fund raiser. I plan to use Premier Basix. I can get all of the yarn for less than $50. I'm so excited to start it. Thank you for this tutorial.

[@JeannaEnjoysCrochet]

This is lovely, I just purchased the pattern. Thank you Glenda, I know you've been working really hard to get these Christmas items ready.

[@SomewhereInIndiana1816]

[@cindycook5464]

I LOVE THIS ! It reminds me of my granny ♥️

[@Rosee3333]

Definitely want to make this. Just an FYI for anyone looking on the Premier website, the Creme Gold is currently out of stock and it doesn't say when it will be restocked. They do have the silver & white. Can't wait to get my yarn in to make this. Starting on Christmas gifts and this is a great one. Thank you!!!

[@CreativeGrandma]

Rosee3333 the Christmas Glitter yarn has been discontinued. It is no longer available.

[@Rosee3333]

@@CreativeGrandma my order was delivered a few days ago. Maybe I got mine in before the yarn ran out.

What a beautiful square 🌺 I used different colors and it came out gorgeous 🌺

Thank you Glenda, for this beautiful pattern. I finished my first block last night!!!

[@donnalombardo7068]

Loving this Christmas blanket-cannot wait to start it! Thank you Creative Grandma xox

[@quinellleftwich1781]

I will be making this afghan. I ordered my yarn as soon as you said they were discontinuing this yarn. But I have to say it gave me so many ideas for other afghans in other colors. I especially like that Starlett Sparkle yarn that you showed because the sparkle is the same color as the yarn. I already have some sparkle yarn by Hobby Lobby as well so I am super excited to get started on some projects. Im certain one project will be in different colors other than the Christmas colors. This pattern is absolutely beautiful! Thanks Glenda!

[@crochazyrose3023]

Sparkle! Great idea! Cheers!

[@augustinadunya7665]

I like the way u teach.

[@TheKaydie]

Thank you so much for letting me know you had added 2 more kits and I did get one. Very excited to make the aphgan..

[@CreativeGrandma]

Thank You for your purchase your kit is being shipped tomorrow via priority mail. you can track through your payment method. :) Happy crocheting

[@marycintron9221]

This tutorial is 3 yrs. old. My problem is I cannot find part 2. I can probably do it on my own. But I would really love to have your instructions. I found pt 1 & 2 of another Christmas afghan, but could not pt 2 of this one. Thanks for your help. I obviously like your instructions if I'm going to all this trouble to find pt 2..

[@rabidangel7423]

Lovely.

[@rosanavarro4003]

Very nice!!

[@tinalynntm]

Ms Glenda I'm just seeing this and I wanted a kit. I'm disappointed 😞 but I guess I will have to purchase it another way and get the pattern. It's beautiful 😍!

[@CreativeGrandma]

I am so sorry, I was so upset when they discontinued the yarn, I tried to order as much as I could to put kits together but they sold out so fast, try www.herrschners.com I think they sell Premier Home Cotton big Glitz you may get lucky and find the yarn

[@tinalynntm]

@@CreativeGrandma Thanks, can you tell me how much yarn of each color I will need if I have to go to Mary Maxim Starlight.

[@valerieduplisea8184]

I really enjoyed making this. You're a fantastic teacher. I wanted to make another one but the cream and gold is sold out do you have any suggestions on what to replace it with... I'm very new to crocheting, this was my first... So I'm not sure where to look and how much to get... I'd really appreciate it if you could help me...

[@lioness320]

I have just subscribed to your channel and thanks for being a great teacher! I need to know if you have a written version of this pattern? I'm thinking about making these into valences for my kitchen at Christmas.

[@karenraabis5296]

Nice!

[@jackiemac9842]

Just my opinion, but I had rather hear how many stitches across. I had to take a part two pieces because stitch count was not the same. I think that is very important… Stitch count also. Great instructions but red nails were very distracting. This is beautiful and I am determined to finish it. Thank you so much

[@maryannedarosa2936]

That is very beautiful I also was wondering if you could crochet Santa Claus pillows

[@taniajackson8496]

I brought the kit and still have not got it yet. I love your page and all your blankets you have done

Hello Tania, I am showing no order from you for the Antique Christmas Afghan. Did you order it under a different name. If you could please email me at [e-mail] with the payment information you used and the date I will have the website recheck the orders. We only had 14 kits and all 14 kits have been sent. If it is under a different name I can track it, but I need more information. We had 2 orders that the credit card order would not process, so those two order were not processed due to lack of payment, so I need more information in order to find out what happened. If you could send me the name the order was under and the method of payment I will see what happened. Please email me at [e-mail]. Sincerely, Creative Grandma

Check your email for a email from [e-mail] I will email you the pattern so I know you received it. Happy crocheting Sincerely, Creative Grandma

[@dorothymarjerrison7994]

Glenda, I love this pattern and I appreciate how well you explain each and every stitch; however, I have made five of the squares and I am making mistakes everywhere as none of my squares are alike, and my sides don’t match. I know this is my fault, but I can’t seem to figures out where I am going wrong. Something that would really help me is if I knew the number of stitches per side for each round (mentioning whether the corner stitches are included in the number. Do you happen to have that information. I’ve watched the video over and over, but I can’t seem to count the number of stitches per side in your demonstration. Thank you so much. The problem is me, but I can’t seem to fix it.

[@crochazyrose3023]

Awww maybe email Grandma. 😁😷 Cheers!

[@jerrilynnjones4689]

I can't get hold of all the mary maxim starlette sparkles yarn to make this. I can use a solid color with my glitter thread. What would be a yarn a little softer than red heart that I could substitute?
