Hello! I’ve been trying to make smaller blankets but am not able to find the right number of stitches that come out right. How many stitches do you use to make a throw? Thanks so much!

[@DivinelyGuided2911]

Where do you get your. Chenile yarn?

[@lindajordans7842]

Could you change the color of the yarn in the sections between the braided sections? Hope that makes sense.

Now that is what I call a tutorial! I know you’ve done similar blankets, but I actually understood this one and I’m definitely going to be making it. It’s gorgeous and looks so cozy! Thanks again for sharing your time and talent! Love to you and rest of the family! ❤

That is such an awesome insight and as I am going to do this for my dear friends birthday 11/11❤ I love the different stitches you use because all the store bought ones are the 1 simple stitch. But yours are so much more beautiful and interesting. 😍😍 Thank you 😊 thsnk you so much!❤ I love your voice its so soothing and reassuring. Clear, easy to follow tutorials.

[@tinabrown6469]

This finger blanket tutorial is the BEST ON KZbin!!! The only thing I can add to this video is to be sure to take a needle and matching thread and tack that yarn tail down real good at the beginning and ending loops. Beautiful Blanket! Thank you so much for sharing! ❤️

[@MsBeachLizard]

Yes. Because they do kinda work their way out.

[@dawndawn6946]

Thanks for that clear instruction! I always have to use so much brain power to keep track of that last/first stitch. I made one of these, but I decided to make it as a “scarf” for the end of my bed. So it drapes across my Queen sized bed, but only at the foot. I used wool. That thing turned out so heavy that I can barely lift it!🤣 If you use it to cover yourself, it is like one of those weighted blankets. Yours looks much more cozy and soft! 🥰

[@dianefontaine8918]

Morning…. So glad you met up with Katcha and family. I’m sure her new store is very impressive ❤. I bought a while back 1 yarn to try my luck at making a blanket so I will use it as my sample. I’ll let you know of my results. Love the details you provided in this. Ideo 😊👍🤗😎🤗❤️

Thanks so much Diane! Give it a try and let me know how it turns out!!! ❤️🎨🙏

[@erikas974]

Christina as I am watching you I am just thinking of my Uncle who use to knit. He would of loved your channel. He made very complicated stiches so I never followed in his footsteps. Also thinking of my Mum who just passed away this January. She use to make herself dresses and costumes all knitted and if she got sick of it un dobit and did another design😊. Hope next year I can go back and choose one of her knitted dress to bring back. Even if I am not going to wear it nice to have her near me. Thank you for this lovely video. I am not going to propisse I will do one but if I decide certainly let you know. Looks relatively easy. My problem was always with knitting I did the stiches very tight. Must learn to loosen up😊🫂

I watched you when you first started to make these cozy blankets. I have made quite a few. I also taught my Grangirls how to make them. Now they are making pillows. Out of the yarn. Thanks for the insturctions. I was at Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago and a lady was looking at this yarn. She looked like what do i do with this. I ask her if she knew how to make the blankets. She said no, so the yarn I was purchasing, I opened one and showed here how to do the stitches. I also gave her your youtube channel and she was delighted. Thanks so much. God Bless.

Never made a board stich blanket and I will definitely make one. Thank you for this great tutorial. I have a little tip for the first row knitting. If you turn the loop row you will see the bobbles. Make your stitches in the bobbles, then all the stitches around the blanket will be exactly the same. Love your voice in all your video’s, you explain everything so calm and clear. Thank you. 🥰🧶🥰

Good morning Iv just found ur vlog and im so wanting to try 2 make it May i ask a few questions as i have dyslexic and new at this and need to understand things Please can u tell me what wool is it? Can i buy the wool from uk where i live? If i try to make a blanket 4 my sister as shes going threw kemo how many stitches across do i need 4 her bed as she feels cold from the kemo? What colour r u using is it cream or another colour? Sory 4 the questions but im getting things rite b4 i try it Thanks 4 ur great vlog Iv liked and subscribed to ur vlog as its taking my mind off things 💜❤️💚💙

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Thank you so much! Welcome to my Channel!!! In my video description, I have written all the information on they type and length of yarn, I hope it helps you! In the Uk, I think if you can order by amazon you can get it (I have the type of yarn I used in my video description with a link to buy the yarn from amazon). For your sister, I would start with the first row chain and make it as wide as you want (remember you are making the width of the blanket and you can then make as may following rows for the length). The colour is a off white colour (vintage white). I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏

[@andrewblandi9014]

I could use some help….I followed along for the 12 chain tutorial and had no problem but every time I tried to make the larger blanket, (many many attempts), the pattern wasn’t working out right for the two under, two over way of making the loops. And I was doing the same size as in the video…please help, feeling defeated!

[@DownButNotOutYet]

Good afternoon Christina, I have been up and down re personal feelings, sometimes it felt things got a bit too much and I just did not get around reading up on the Subscriptions on KZbin and I felt terrible, but I just could not shake it. I have so enjoyed all your project videos, alas, I have not received any new contents from Vancouver!! Are you still blogging or have you got another channel which you work on. If it is Facebook, Instagram or another vlog, then I have missed out greatly as I do not do those. Well, let me take this opportunity before January is racing on to February, we all know and are well aware of how time flies. Did you have a good Christmas and a great New Year's Day. There was also so much I was interested in doing but I did not get around to doing them :( I have decided to create my own happiness, doing what I love most and it is working great for me thus far. When you realise that things are not what they used to be, we have a few choices, you can wallow in those horrible mental conditions, or you decide you will get up and dust yourself off and make a fresh new start to your life. You cannot please other people all the time, so, make time to create happiness for yourself. One of the goals are, I had a few orchids, and do not ask me why but I killed them all 🙊 I thought long and hard about it, and I decided to get myself a plant, some exotic species and take it from there. A particular bulb I tried to buy but nobody had them in stock anymore, so instead of moping about it, I went to a Orchid Shop, they were selling Phalaenopsis presently as the Cymbidiums are winter orchids here and there were none available. I did so much research on KZbin and I feel most confident that I will be successful this time round. I have joined an Orchid Society but they shared so little information, all most like making tea in a chocolate teapot, useless to say the least. I had given them a goodbye a couple of years ago and never regretted that decision. So, the challenge is on and I have to keep going. Do you have a challenge for this year? How is your dear husband doing and those beautiful hairy dogs and the Queen of cats? Hope that everybody is well and happy and contented. Do take care, many blessings, most kind regards.

[@VABurdick]

Thanksgiving thank you!! I echo all the kudos below for a newbie finger crochet Grama. Today is Black Friday, any good deals for a senior savings on this chunky yarn?

[@sesalie80]

So I have a question. Her chain was 34. And at the end of the video her blanket was 4 1/2’ x 7. So does that mean she did 34 loops for width and length? Or how many did she do for length to get 7 feet in length?

[@joannesnyder7975]

Love your tutorial!! So I am not sure what I am doing wrong but per your instructions for the big blanket we are to knit a chain of 34 but that number is not working out for the stitches to match up so I am doing 32 which works. Unless you meant 34 stitches not counting the 2 end stitches then it would be 36?

[@sherilyn4358]

I'm just learning how to do this and this is the best tutorial I've seen so far!!! Can you tell me how you know how many stitches across and how many rows per blanket? If I wanted to do a baby blanket or a regular sized blanket?

[@arleenbuzzell1201]

Amazing. I will try it. The dogs are so sweet and your patience with them is so endearing.

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏

[@MeganMcCants-vp7dl]

How would this work if wanting to use 3 different colors for 1 blanket? How many rows would you do before switching colors?

[@lauraball4100]

Thank you so much! I think I may have a different size, mine contain 72 yds each, how many yds is your big blanket?

[@elizabethmaloneorlando217]

Oh Christina what a beautiful cozy blanket, the perfect color for any decor. Fur babies feel the same, Lol❤ Loved how you were able to reverse the stich when you saw the error. I remember when my mom taught me how to crochet, I had to rip out so much of my hard work just to correct one error. My daughter is left handed & I'm right handed & teaching her this technique will go so much smoother & less complicated for the both of us. Less frustration & happy memories will create a beautiful blanket, I'm sure she'll treasure forever. Happy Fall 🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂

Thank you so much Elizabeth! Glad you liked it!! I have to teach Ryan as he is left handed too!! ❤️🎨🙏

Excellent tutorial, thank you. Question: with the size blanket that you showed, how many skeins did you use to complete this one? TY.

[@bonnietrant5252]

How many skeins are needed for a king size and how stitches in the first beginning row? I want to try this after Christmas. Ty so much and I have really missed you being on on Saturday mornings.

[@hayenh]

How do you get your stitches so tight? I've made one blanket so far - very easy, but I'd love to perfect this!

[@caroleelwell2325]

How do I figure how many skeins I would need to make a little smaller blanket?

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Thank you so much! It takes getting used to and the feel of the yarn when you make your stitches. I would say get a few extra balls (you can always return them) and go from there. I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏

[@Fanouvvi]

Hello Christina, It seems I have watched nearly all of your knitting videos except for "Master The Art of Finger Knitting: Baskets, Pet Beds and more... this time, I am aiming to make a knit chunky blanket. Although I am not sure what color yarn to use, your instructions are very precise and easy for me to follow. You are an excellent teacher. Could you knit chunky socks as well? Last but not least, the chunky blanket turned out beautifully. I appreciate you inspiring us to try something new.

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Hi Fanouvv! Glad you liked the video!!!! I have not tried socks yet!! Good idea! ❤️🙏🎨

[@tonyathiele6345]

Hi I love the tutorial. I am wondering I bought some chunky blanket yarn but it is only 6 guage. Will still I be able to make a hand knit blanket using this guage?

[@jodiegillespie1679]

How neat that would be to use the practice piece for a matching throw pillow! To do that would you see in a flannel back? What would be a good idea to make it into a pillow?

[@chyhart]

thanks for the details. I wish i had access to all that alpaca fiber my mom had :( That would make for a queenly blanket for sure

[@kimberlyj4538]

Question: If you make the last loop of the casting on row the first loop of the first row, doest that make your first row have only 9 loops?

[@lizpastorino8503]

hi christina, i just loved your video. so nice to be able to understand & follow along with you without a heavy accent making it difficult to understand. i finished my 2nd big blanket about 6 months ago. i really had to downsize it. mine was going to be 8’ x 8’. now it’s 7.5’ x 5’. i did the seed stitch at the beginning to give it weight then the rib stitch like you did . i also learned how to add a extra border to my blanket after i did the castoff. a little difficult since i don’t crochet but it gave my blanket a little extra umph. i would really like to know how you know approximately how many stitches to chain to get a good width for a big blanket. i think i chained like sixty something & stitches were a little smaller. your video is very informative insightful and you do wonderful work. bless you and your beautiful puppies. keep the videos coming. thank you so very much i learned something new.

Thank you so much! The width is always a challenge, I would chain a set until I am happy with the width, then as for the length you can go as long as you want once the width is set from the first row of chains. I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏

I would love to make a blanket but I have arthritis in my hands and I don’t know if I will be able to do it. Looks simple enough.

Hello, new here 🙋🏽‍♀️ What ended up being the size of the ones you made with Kacha? And how many stitches in a row? So excited to get started!

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Thank you so much! For Kacha's it was the size of a throw (small about like 3 ft by 5 ft). I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏

Is there Chucky organic cotton that is the same thickness? And not stuffed ? I really want to make one, great tutorial ! 😍

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Thank you so much! I am not sure! I have not seen that type of yarn before. I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏

I'm very happy to see you today! This is a wonderful tutorial in which you address the beginner problems to great effect. The thing it clarified for me was the stitch length; I didn't know that it's official that the stitches subsequent to the first row should be smaller and felt guilty when I made them so out of necessity. lol. You should really do a book with gorgeous pix and a video attached. Christina, I always feel sorry for your middle doggie whom I feel may have middle child syndrome. It seems kind of unfair that his little brother grew to be larger than he. How do you manage three dogs? To your great credit, they seem very polite and well-mannered. (I only have one and he's a very possessive and demanding eighty-pound lap dog.) I'm glad you got to see Kasha. She's so talented and beautiful, as are you. Did the two of you take a beautiful pic together?? I don't really follow any other media, so maybe you did . . . Have a great week. xxx

Hi Glitter! It's funny we thought about Pascale the middle child syndrome! but I think he is fine, we give him lots of love because he is so easy to pick up and adorable! LOL. What we are experiencing is litter mate syndrome, when you take one out the other cries! Its mainly Gabriel that is doing this because he is young. They will grow out of it our breeder said! hopefully! ❤️🙏🎨

13:44 on one of your videos when you casted off you pulled the working yarn through the front. Is there a difference? Would that be different from the first row?

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Thank you so much! This is how you get an alternating pattern of front and back. I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏

[@ChloeBerry-jh1ed]

How do you do two colors in one blanket

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Good question, you can add the second colour by tying it on to the previous yarn. Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏

[@shunawestern9153]

Absolutely gorgeous. Is this the only wool you can use to get this kind of Blanket. 🥰🐾🐾🎃

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Thank you so much! You can try traditional wool but you will need to double it up. I have made a new video today that shows a crochet technique that gives a nice plush look as well. I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏

[@tina6314]

How many basket weave patterns did you have in the row? Beautiful blanket, by the way 😊

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Hi for the first row there were 18 squares for total 72 for the whole blanket! Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏

[@christybroadway5615]

I was curious if I can do color changes with the border stitch?

[@mrssonyab1]

I think this is an amazing tutorial for me to follow. I’m going to try this out as I am trying to find something to keep my hands busy to keep from smoking now instead of eating. Thanks so much!!!

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Thank you so much! I have another chunky blanket tutorial you may like! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🎨🙏

Good afternoon Christina, it was a great video, especially you showing us a new pattern stich and the many uses of this project. I can imagine placing your feet on a soft luxurious blanket when starting out of bed. We can even make the colour match to the existing carpet or room décor. It was fun to see those hairy/furry babies having a good time and Hadley was so sweet to come and keep you company, I think he just wanted some comfort. It was lovely to see you start on the blanket project again, they are so warm and comforting. It is strange how when learning something new, we all have a different perspective of patterns. It was also good to show how to correct a incorrect stich without having to pull out all the work. It seems that our lovely warm season has now started as the temperatures were quite high, it was gorgeous weather, now we are all just waiting for the rains to start. It would be wonderful as it is quite dusty outside. I had to smile looking at the flames in the fireplace, then you know there is a change coming. I really hope the weather will not be too challenging in the Northern Hemisphere this season, we had very high spring tides in the Cape, along the shores, the waves were massive and they pushed wherever they wanted to go. Some of the swells were 9 metres and there was a wind chasing them on as well. It looked very scary as some cars suv's were parked on the usual parking areas and I think the tide pulled back some of them to sea. It does happen at intervals alas, this was an exceptional high tide. I think every 10 years or so. There was some talk about the moon having an effect on the tide as well, which is understandable. Thank you for the tutorial I am sure your dear sister would be so happy with her gift. Do take care, be alert many blessings. Kind regards, Elize.

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Hi Elize!!! So good to hear from you!!!!! I love your messages!!! We are starting to get the cool weather now and starting to rain more often! Fall is here! That is incredible about the tides!!! its amazing the power of nature!!!! I hope you enjoy today's new video! ❤️🙏🎨
