Lovely stitch. No matter what thickness of yarn is used is come out very pretty and a very easy stitch as well. Thank you Alison

[@christinekaylor8208]

love this! so easy and pretty!

[@pattisnapsforbeans8212]

Ive been making blankets doing a single then double, then single , double, rep, (US) but I didnt put them in the same stitch, and I didnt skip a stitch. I guess I must have heard it wrong before. My blankets came out really nice, but now that you showed me the correct way, Im going to start a blanket tonight!! Thanks so much, Alison!!!

[@Scorpio45Libra]

I kinda like the sound of that sc, then dc...not in the same stitch but not skipping any either. I might just give that a try as well as Alison's version! That's how great things happen, is by making mistakes that turn out not to be a mistake after all.

[@darrinmckeehan5697]

Super pattern! Love that it's fast, yet pretty. You're right (as far as what I like)I love fast yet stitch patterns that are nice looking😍. I'll be making this 1! Now I'm making a gray lap blanket for 1 of the city bus drivers. She bought 3 skeins of very soft chunky yarn, but made the foundation row super long. With the "beginner" hook she was using-it made her feel that crochet just isn't her forte.☹I told her that it made it uncomfortable for me to use also. We're going to get together and I'll help her learn to crochet with a metal straight hook. Not a bulky platic huge 1

[@darrinmckeehan5697]

I'm making it by a similar pattern =US terms 1 SC/1 HDC/1 DC in same stitch. UK terms=DC/HTC/TC

Doing this stitch now for a hat. In the U.S., it would be the Suzette Stitch. My favorite:) Loved that you showed the difference in the stitch size with the different hooks. Always looks elegant:)

Really very nice stitch !!! Wish you a Happy and Healthy New Year!!!

[@AllanCaine]

Marvelous. I used a similar stitch for a baby blanket I made over the holidays. It has a multiple of 3. The pattern is sc dc dc (US terms) all in the same st and sk 2. Repeat. Both patterns achieve such a beautiful result, in my humble opinion.

[@TheCatlady63]

Happy New Year Allison. That's a nice dense stitch pattern I might try that out with some chunky yarn I was gifted.

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

Its beautiful in arran too I have 2 huge balls of cream arran and its looking fab.

[@krazymammaw3040]

Curious going to try a 8 mm hook I love the 7mm and the 9mm hook it's more airy and it looks good with all hooks but I like the airy more.i think shows the stich better but again all beautiful

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

I agree bigger looks can have some amazing results and really lighten up a pattern

[@tmaryso43williams10]

Would it be possible to do a U.S. single crochet for the bottom and for a beginning and last stitch of each row?

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

In the UK our double crochet is a USA single yes you can do that

[@francesalexander1076]

It's just me again. I can't find a 7mm hook here in New York. They go from 6mm, 61/2mm to 8 mm

[@annekeating1940]

Hi Frances, you don't necessarily need a 7mm hook. I thought the chunky sample with the 9mm hook looked equally as nice as the others. I'm sure a size 8mm with a chunky yarn would turn out really well. The gold blanket was done with a 6mm and double knit wool. I honestly think you can't go wrong. Hope this helps 🙏

[@fionastube2011]

Tried Etsy or EBay?

I have gotten a 7mm hook from Amazon.

Hi Alison Happy New Year, I love this & the wriggle blanket- I want to do these in 30 x 60cm size, can you tell me how many chains the 1st row should have please? Xx

[@diana4353]

I am wondering if a Bernat velvet yarn will work with this stitch and not do the worming velvet yarn is known for. Love the yarn but looking for a blanket pattern that won't worm. I will be using this pattern with other yarn also but wanted your advise for the velvet yarn.

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

Prsonally I think all velvet kind of worms after a wash anything iv made has holes ahahaha its slippy stuff and hard to hold a pattern.

[@yogicaspi]

Looks great, I’m needing to do a baby blanket this week - how big is this one please? & can you tell me how many to chain for the wriggle blanket background if I want to todo these blankets @ 30 x 60 cm? Xx

[@nydiarivera6866]

Isn’t that the Suzette stitch? I’ve made blankets with this single crochet and double crochet in same stitch. Skipping one.

[@graemepitt3044]

What is this stitch / pattern called please? I absolutely LOVE it for baby blankets.

[@colinstanton56]

Alison is there a border for this blanket please.xx

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

I didn't do one but feel free to add one. Personally I'd just do a few rounds of UK treble crochets. (US double crochet)

[@sarahmariakuipers3967]

In South Africa we call a single stich a ,,"Kortbeentjie"and a dubbel stich we call a "Langbeentjie." Just to tell you I understand what you are saying.

[@rebeccaaustin1975]

Can of you that have commented help me do you start either with even or odd number for chain

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

Start with an EVEN number in your chain

[@rebeccaaustin1975]

Please can someone help and answer my comment

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

Its in the video, Rebecca, you do an even number of stitches and after you do your 1st row you will have an odd number

[@joanneschmitt1461]

I understand you are teaching and I do love the patterns you do, but please don’t keep repeating yourself. Saying what double and treble are every time you start a new row is a little much. We get it after watching your tutorials. You also dwell on things too long. I want to learn the stitch and get going but have to wait for another explanation. Sorry, I know people won’t agree, but it’s just my opinion.
