All of a sudden I find myself pondering how crocheting was invented and how much of a complete genius the person who did so was. Amazing

[@ChiseledDiamond]

No one knows for sure, but some researchers believe it either came from Arabia or indigenous south Americans, the oldest form of needle work that could be considered crochet is from ancient china, as far as we know.

[@luvsmetallica08]

Same. I was also wondering who created the hook 😂

[@SynfullyWkd67]

@@luvsmetallica08 I read somewhere that it was originally called "shepherd's knitting"

[@marylougarrison49]

Crochet as we know it in the modern day was created around the 15th to 17th century. It is important to note that although the first published crochet pattern emerged in 1824, there is substantial evidence to point to crochet being taught word of mouth rather than written. In the 19th century there was a huge rise in crochet. It was mainly used in a form now known as Irish Crochet, which takes the normal needle and bobbin lacework, and simplifies it down to really intricate crochet. Crochet was given a tremendous boost by Mlle. Riego de la Branchardiere, who was best known for her ability to take old-style needle and bobbin lace designs and turn them into crochet patterns that could easily be duplicated. She published many pattern books so that millions of women could begin to copy her designs. The rise in popularity did not end there and it continued throughout the 20th century. In the early 1900s it was used to make practical things like afghans and potholders along with some simple garments and rugs. It was during this time that potholders made their first appearance and became a staple of the crocheter’s repertoire. It was during this time that many types of yarn also came with small pattern samples and crochet guides. It didn't stop there it continued in popularity all the way through the 1960s and 70s where it was seen as a more free type of expression, especially in terms of clothes.

Thank you Robin I finally finished my beautiful sunflower blanket for my daughter. It measures 142cms x 92cms in total 77 squares (11 squares down x 7 squares across). I used the same colours. It took 4 x 100g balls of gold, 2 x 100g balls of brown (with 84g left over), 6 x 100g of cream (with 33g left over) and included the zig zag joining of squares and 3 x 100g pumpkin (with 46g left over). Hope these calculations helps everyone. I will try and attach a photo of my finished project. 😊

What are the names of the three colors? I’d like to do the same. Thank you, Joy

Did you use a chunky yarn that needs a 6mm hook like the video or a lighter-weight yarn?

Julie, thank you for sharing the amt of yarn info. My daughter fell in love with this pattern and I want to make it for her for her birthday. It is very thoughtful to do that. 😀

Robin REALLY is the best teacher. Before her, I couldn't crochet at all. Unable to sleep one night during lockdown, I stayed up most of the night watching the intro videos. By morning I had a small pile of granny squares. Thank you, Robin!

[@startracings]

15:38 was such a, like... satisfying moment. Just "Crush it flat!" *thunk* was incredibly amusing and definitely sold me on this one in a weird way. I was already looking up yarns to maybe try this for a holiday present and now I absolutely have to.

[@HookedbyRobin]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I enjoyed slapping it into submission LOL

[@hilonguyen4658]

Not only are you a wonderful teacher but your voice and crocheting is so relaxing 😂

[@deborahmorton3830]

I made the traditional sunflower colors using this pattern and gave it to my granddaughter for Christmas last year. Also made a 16" pillow with a sunflower and leaves in the middle and a bolster with sunflowers on each end. Then I made her a sunflower coaster set in a crocheted container for her birthday. This was very time consuming, but looked wonderful.

[@HookedbyRobin]

The sunflower colours were my daughters choice! I think its very trendy with the youngsters at the moment (and considering she has NEVER asked me for crochet before, I jumped on it 😅) Your bolsters sound beautiful! 🌻

This is one of the sunflower square tutorial I've watched. I've watched several others just for my square come out uneven and "wavy" because it was completely flat. I have no idea why in the tutorial theirs came out flat while mine didn't, i know i was following the directions accurately because i focused on every detail to make it perfect. All that trying discouraged me to stopping crochet for a month until i finally got the courage to come back at it and i found your video. This video not only helped me make a proper flat square it also gave me back the courage to pursue crochet. Thank you thank you thank you, your work is very much appreciated.

I am going to buy some pure Arran wool from the sheep on the Island of Tiree in the Hebrides. Hand spun on the islands . I have order two 100 grms balls in either cream and brown or two cream. ( Haven’t decided yet ) What would be your recommendations for a beginner but getting much better! !!! Thank you Pamela

Just found this video and you're a fantastic teacher. For an absolute beginner like me this is fantastic and I feel like I can do this. Thank you!!!!

Thank you so much! X

Well then, I'll just have to make a cardigan now, about how big a square does this make with what size yarn and hook?🥰

[@HookedbyRobin]

My squares are approximately 5 inches using the chunky yarn and 6mm hook. I'm actually making a cardigan with the squares I show in the beginning and in the thumbnail! If you want slightly smaller squares for your cardigan you can use double knit yarn with a 4mm hook 😀

[@galli0]

@@HookedbyRobin thanks! Hope you post the making of the cardigan, I'd love to see it 😍

[@laurarhoten3956]

i am so excited.. you just taught me how to do this pattern. and I may have to work on my inner circle as I was off by 2 of the petals (instead of 16; had 14) and need to work on my hdcs but over all it came out really well like it was supposed to!!!!! tysm for your tutorial!!!

[@HookedbyRobin]

You are very welcome! :D xx

[@Mandeep-qw2xo]

Sorry what hook size is that?

[@michellewasson277]

Ok, 1st I love this. 2nd, I am from Kansas, so will totally be making these pattern soon. 3rd, this seems pretty easy. (I skipped over this video many times, thinking it was too hard for me! I finally watched it, & was proven wrong.)

[@HookedbyRobin]

You can definitely do this Michelle! 😃🌻🌻

[@michellewasson277]

@@HookedbyRobin ok, so I watched the join-as-u-go video, I can't do that, but I don't mind doing up all the squares and then joining them.

I love your style of teaching. When I was teaching in a computer lab (those were a thing back in the 80’s) and I would tell the kids that if they made a mistake to STOP put your hands on you head and say “Oh No!”. This took their hands from the keyboard and gave them a moment to remember how to Zap the mistake by hitting command Z. As soon as you said STOP it took me back to those days and reminded me don’t just forge ahead when learning a new technique, count carefully before proceeding.😂
