Hello Glenda. This is a beautiful stitch. I am making squares of this for an afghan. Thank you for sharing.

[@zeliaospina2673]

Good morning Glenda thank you very much for this beautiful pattern I'm making a scarf it's coming out gorgeous thank you for being so patient

[@bettyunderwood9525]

Thank you so very much for your help with starting to a person that hasn’t crocket for nearly fifty years have a blessed day Glenda

[@phrarama7812]

Lovely pattern. I really needed to see more of the actual work. Many of the shots were side views. Also your fingers were on the way. Thanks.

[@arlyneallen1715]

Very nice stitch. Iam doing a baby blanket with the raise stitch now. Thank You for showing me on how to did it

[@sandrasnyder9347]

Thank you for sharing all your knowledge of crochet, I have learned so much, you are my favorite teacher for crochet and your other chit chat videos, you have helped me with my anxiety so much.

[@abc-wv4in]

Came here from your video using the Premier Puzzle yarn in this stitch. You explain this stitch very well. I love the way it worked up for you using the Puzzle yarn. For a solid throw, I'd personally use a simpler stitch such as the Suzette, just because it's easier LOL, but this stitch seems perfect for a harlequin effect using the Puzzle yarn. Thanks for explaining it so well!

[@marie-joseedesilets1667]

Thank you to take the time to re-explain the last stitch; like a lot of us, I'm having difficulties to identify it, despite several explanations. Now I'm trying with a marker at the first stitch of the row as it becomes the last stitch at the end ... and so far it works pretty good, maybe that would help some ladies here!! But continue to explain it to us, it helps. One day we'll be good at it and we'll recognize that «« last stitch »» once and for all !!!

[@abc-wv4in]

If I try this I'm probably going to put a stitch marker in that chain-1 that does not count, so I'll know NOT to work into that stitch.

[@patriciajackson3883]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful pattern with me 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷

[@kathydill4253]

❤ CC you are a wonderful teacher.

[@janiceprice6651]

You do a good job of explaining and showing the stiches, THANK you

[@abc-wv4in]

I agree!

[@marilynhartzog2628]

Love this pattern . Thank you for the tutorial. 😊😊

[@kellyjarrett1408]

Beautiful stitch Glenda ! Thank you for great tutorial!

[@PVBJR]

I have finally mastered this pattern...it took many starts and tear outs but I prevailed... Thank you.

[@dianedoherty3755]

You are such an amazing teacher. You make it very easy for all of us who are watching your videos whether we are first time crocheters or pros! I absolutely love this stitch and can not wait to use it. Thank you for giving me the confidence to make beautiful pieces of work!🌹🌹

[@karenl.7058]

I love this pattern, and did an afghan using it with two colors. I did 2 rows of each color, so I could bring up the sides instead of cutting off. It worked beautifully, and looked great. Since it's a dense pattern, I used Caron Simply Soft yarn, which is a 4 wt. yarn, but is thinner than other 4 wt. yarns. It still came out fairly dense, but not overly so. Thanks, Glenda. Your patterns are lovely! I have done several blankets using your patterns and everyone is amazed at how wonderful the patterns are. I'm a big fan!

[@salliewilson7312]

I did a 2 color 2 row pattern too, I used a Russian Join at each change so there is no need for a border! Love this pattern!

[@cynthiaborah2348]

Beautiful stitch

[@dinihoiting2635]

Your amazing, you go very slow for the beginners!👍🤗

[@lyndacampbell3340]

The raised she'll stitch is what I'll be using on my next baby blanket/Afghan for a crib not to open a stitch from what I can see so baby digits shouldn't get caught in it. Thank you for posting your video!

[@barbarageorge2410]

BEST , CLEAREST DIRECTIONS I HAVE EVER SEEN. THANK YOU

[@PVBJR]

This stitch pattern has me hooked (no pun intended). it took some time to master, but I kept crocheting, ripping it out and crocheting until I got it under control, that said, I've completed a 62 x 64 all white...a 66 x 58 royal blue, and have four more in progress...all measuring about the same size. A pale plum, black and heather grey, pretty n' pink and soft navy...thank you, love this pattern. Hope I do you justice. Paul

[@LyndaThomasflymefree54]

Wow you are quite the happy hooked. 😉

[@karensevers5724]

Thank you so much for the time you take doing these stitches. You make it so much easier and I never would have tried this without your help.

[@lisagiles9242]

Hi Glenda I am doing this ditch right now I love. Thank you for sharing it with us m

[@DanetteSWhite]

Love the variety of stitches. They make great afghans/hat n scarf sets

[@pattyquick2909]

Love your patterns

[@gigiv7326]

Ooooow...how gorgeous! Thanks for sharing & I love that you take the time & love to show us your three samples AS WELL AS giving us the stitch multiples, which I feel is important but that not many designers share will us. You're the beez knees Glenda! 😘

[@janiscasey8500]

I just crocheted along with you on this stitch of the week. Although I found it a little confusing to start with, it is really pretty once you get it. Thank you, for your hard work.🙃💖.

[@marie-joseedesilets1667]

You are a great teacher. I realy like you and the way you teach. Thank you for the work you do!!!

[@reginaquarles1178]

Love Love. This. Site.. Please KEEP THESE BEAUTIFUL. Pieces. Coming.I Appreciate All These. Things.. Blessings,. Gina Q

[@nannyb5768]

Robin! Answer for you that might help. When I can’t seem to get longer stitches to sit well I use an extended version of the stitch used or an extended version of a stitch a size smaller. Eg. an extended double front post instead of a triple front post. Also tension can be a real problem causing curling, let your yarn flow more freely when pulling your loops through to form your stitch. Hope this helps.

[@BBknits]

You are The Best, Creative Grandma!!! Thank you for another Gorgeous pattern! I always look forward to your amazing, so well explained tutorials of such beautiful crocheted creations! Thank you for sharing your amazing talent and knowledge! Thank you for your generosity!!! You are much loved and appreciated! God Bless!!🤗🤗🤗🦋🦋🦋💕💕

[@auntie44m]

Thank you Glenda. That's the first sample I've made with a front stitch. Lots of fun. My tension got a bit sloppy trying to allow enough yarn to go under and through those front doubles. But I think that will improve with practice. I'd never master some of these stitches without your video instructions. Thank you.

[@jeanettemartin2592]

Looks pretty and You are a wonderful teacher.

[@FoxyHam]

Wow! I'm going to try this lovely stitch as it would be a great afghan project for next winter! Thank you.

[@marylopez3352]

This Raised Shell Stitch is just perfect for seasonal placemats. You are amazing!🎆

[@carolbufala3562]

Thank you so much, I love this stitch and all your explaining how the pattern works. Took me quite a few rewinds (I'm slow) but finally got it with your help, and tutorial. Making this wheelchair size 36x46 for a friend in a chair, in bright cheery pink/ purple colors, her favorites.

[@vandanamedisetty1414]

Hi mam Raised shell stitch and colours are lovely the way you explain about the patterns that makes me feel easy to follow-up thanku happy crocheting 🤗👌👍

[@jayleengiovengo6421]

You are a great teacher! Beautiful stitch. You always make it look so easy. Thank you for your time. I really appreciate you.

[@MarnysCrochetandCrafts]

I know this is an old video, but I came across this and thought it was just such a beautiful stitch pattern. I am going to use this pattern in a blanket for my niece for Christmas. I had made a sample a couple weeks ago and forgot to write down where I saw it and I had forgotten I had even done a sample. I have spent the past week looking for it again and couldn't for the life of me remember who had the video for it. I am so happy I found it again and I wrote it down this time. I am also working on my second granny square project for the Season of the Granny.

[@pranatis12]

beautiful..look forward to your Stitch of the Week tutorials..love all the tips and Technics that comes with it...thank you for sharing all your beautiful patterns..!!

[@auntie44m]

Pranati S, me too, Glenda has such a creative and generous nature.

[@tessfrancisco8299]

I really appreciate all the stitches that you feature here. They are all wonderful and srem easy once I've seen the tutorial. You do great in explaining the details. Keep up the good work.

[@jeannebeverly1244]

So pretty! Looks like tulips!

[@aliciaroot2201]

Bless your heart explaining the stitches.. Good work, pretty stitch.. keep up the great job..

[@Pasos4me]

You're such a good teacher, thank you!

[@joannestanton4492]

Just a suggestion... call the stitch you do the three front post triple around the stand alone double crochet. I love this pattern and will use it often.

[@deborahm4484]

Hi Glenda love this. one as do a lot of blankets for charity and always looking for new ideas thanks for all you do, learn a lot from you and appreciate it a. Lot keep up the great work, happy crocheting from Ireland xx

[@patriotlady2259]

It was a little tough for me. But, I did finally get it. I think this is one that I will be using for my grand-daughters University colors. I'm think of for the base in white and I have found a variegated yarn that is yellow and black. So, I'm going to make it a thicker stripe of about 6 rows or more. I'll have to see how it looks. Thank you. I'm excited that I found you.

[@krisheathman9053]

Omgoodness....this is beautiful 😊 They almost look like an elongated heart ❤️. Very pretty! Thank you 😊

[@honibear6478]

Glenda that pattern stitch is really cool. I've never seen it before. It looks like it would make anything pretty.

[@Theguys1]

You’re great.

[@lindabowers9145]

Very pretty

[@natalielinton1624]

yes another awesome video!!!!

[@blackstarblues9055]

It’s a lovely stitch but such hard work. I’m exhausted after following this tutorial.

[@velvetfair21]

This is so pretty! I think I'll use this pattern when I make my own purse. :D

[@TexanCandy]

Congratulations on 30K subs CG! You're killing it! 😉😊 I'm gonna need an autograph. 😂

[@CreativeGrandma]

Thank You Candy LOL as you well know it is a lot of work to do these videos. I hope I continue to grow, trying to get to 50,000 subs by the end of the year. Hope your winning on your tickets, I have not had a lot of time to visit your or codys channel lately.

[@TexanCandy]

Creative Grandma I'm confident you're going to exceed your goal before the end of the year. 😊 No, the lottery is being mean. 😔 Let me know if and when you want to revisit the website. 😁

[@BellaNC]

I have to do this one!!😃

[@PVBJR]

Thank you for this pattern and your tutorial.

[@nancyhollifield241]

Do you put your swatches together for an afghan? Bet that would be pretty. I enjoy your videos

[@jillmiller4114]

I love this stitch! Thanks as always! I just thought I might make a little recommendation. I dont know if its possible for you to make or even edit the videos so you can have a quicker tutorial for the more advanced crocheters while still keeping the video for absolute beginners? I can read patterns, but I still love to watch the tutorials because I learn better with a visual. Just a thought. 😊 I will still watch regardless, because I love the stitch of the week! 😁❤

[@LyndaThomasflymefree54]

Yep. I get that these help the beginners but they are really slow. I think even a beginner would learn with a little faster gate. And yes she is a good teacher. Maybe a second channel for more advanced students with more projects to do.

[@kayemarcy8410]

If you click on the top right corner of the video you will see three lined up dots. Click on that a menu will come up for playback speed. Click on that and you can speed up or slow down the video. ☺☺

[@lindahamilton8428]

Thanks

[@bintbufutaim]

Thank you so much, it is nice stitche

[@shirleyredford7059]

I love this pattern but I am having so much trouble with the ends with that half double crochet and double crochet. Can I just eliminate the either the half double crochet or the double crochet

[@amypetracek2593]

I'm VERY new to crochet. :) I was wondering if you could make a lighted crochet rug with LED rope lights. I have scoured youtube for a good tutorial and I can't find one. I really want to make one for my daughter. My biggest problem with crochet is keeping my stitches even. I thought maybe I could do that because the rope light would help. Thanks so much!!! I love your channel.

[@LyndaThomasflymefree54]

Mmm maybe not a good idea for a rug being stepped on nor electricity on the floor in a kid's room. Spills are always a hazardous chance no matter how careful. You wouldn't want being hip or in crowd to lead to a hospital trip. Just grandmotherly advice.

[@a.d.asrafa9590]

nice patterns

[@remondeabouhamad318]

Hi. I am trying this pattern and looks great but what about the border you didn’t show that in your tutorial. Thanks.

[@shirleybrown1349]

I'm trying it right now

[@kariwadge4883]

Im making a afghan with the iris stitch here are the 3 colors for the main afghan and the varigated purple is for the border
