I also really love the way you have joined the ends with thread. Just tying a knot in a yarn this thick makes it very easy for the knot to slip. I just repaired one for my daughter that someone else had made and it was in olaces where it had only been single knotted! Thanks a bunch for sharing! I already knew how to hand crochet the afghan but your tips were very helpful!

I'm a bit late to this chunky blanket craze, but I recently took a class that taught you how to make one. Honestly, I wish I'd found your tutorial first. The very best part is how you finished the blanket. I absolutely LOVE how that turned out. They used a different technique that wasn't nearly as flattering. I am SO tempted to take my blanket apart and make it again. I'm giving it to my boyfriend for Valentine's Day and I want it to be perfect. I'm going to make my boss one for her birthday in March and you'll be on in the background. You have a new subscriber. Thanks :)

This is fun. I’ve never seen it done before . As a knitter I would like to give you a tip. When you add a new color at the end of the row, just make a loop with the new color and keep going. When you come back and loop through the second color on the next row, then go down and tie the two colors together.

Thank you so much also a neighbor gave me 2 bags of this yarn where they had started a blanket before your video I didn't know how to make this so I took it a loose. As I was doing that I found your video it took me 2 days to take this apart. Now watching your video I will make it the way you have except I have Grey, burgundy, and a light pink.

Thank you for this 👍🏻. I’ve had similar yarn for months and have tried to crochet, without success, four times!🙈 Thought you might be interested to know that the yarn cost £10 per skein in the UK, so I’m only using 6 skeins to start 😀

Wow that is more expensive. I will say if I make another one I will probably make it half the size. The yarn stretches over time and it is so big and chunky. It’s great but can be a lot of blanket sometimes. Haha

How many loops and skeins for a baby blanket ??
@CraftwithBethany
@CraftwithBethany 10 ай бұрын
It varies so much on how big you want the blanket and how big or small you make your loops. Keep measuring as you set your initial chain to set the width of the blanket and then go for as long as you desire.

Instead of thread I use dental floss as its stronger and lessens the risk of breaking like thread. Another off-topic craft trick using dental floss to sew gathering. Just zigzag stitch over the dental floss and pull to the desired gather.

I’m not sure because it depends on the type of yarn, it’s stretch and how tight or loose you make your loops. I used 9.5 sirens for mine and it’s huge.

Hello, great tutorial! What is the size of the finished blanket?
@CraftwithBethany
@CraftwithBethany 7 ай бұрын
Size will vary greatly by how big for small you make your loops. And over time it will stretch out some. I recommend getting the width you want with your first chain and then keep adding length until you are happy with the size. This large blanket covers my queen been.

Keep to man made yarns, or anything that says machine washable / dryable... if you use natural animal fibers, it's not machine washable..... it will FELT ... and become a matted mess plus it will shrink.

@@mmartinez18 great question! I’ve washed my blankets in the washer and dryer several times with no issues. My washer does not have the center agitator so I think that helps not having that. Most yarn will have care instructions on the skein packaging as well. But I tossed mine in and had no issues. I use a gentle cold cycle.

I started watching this while looking for a video for another blanket project. Once I finished that I came back because it looked so interesting and I immediately bought the skeins for it! I just started and wanted to ask if you find it easier to complete at a table or could it also be done in a more comfortable location? I’m sure since I’m a beginner it will probably be easier to do at a table but I just wanted to ask! Thank you for the tutorial! I’m excited to see the blanket I end up making!❤❤
