My thanks to Jane for another beautiful pattern and to Chandi for another great tutorial! Now....whoever figured out the foundation stitches -- fsc, fhdc, fdc -- needs to receive some sort of huge honor🏅🎉 for freeing us from the dreaded non-stretchy slip stitch chain that you never get the right number of stitches the first time so you have to frog (rip it, rip it, rip it) 🐸 the first row at least once. Using foundation stitches makes your project look way better, too. 😸

[@satsumamoon]

If you have to use a chain then make 4 extra and undo any surpless after completing the 1st row. Chain doesnt always cause tightening , it depends on the pattern.

[@irmar]

@@satsumamoon It very often does, though. I usually do it with a slightly bigger crochet hook than the rest of the work.

Thank you for the beautiful Trade Winds Wrap pattern!! It’s just what I was looking for to make for my Aunt Carol who just turned 91 this year. She’s still very active. Plays golf, takes her 2 Boxers for walks every day and visits out of town friends and relatives. Hope I can be like that when I get to be her age! 🧶💕

[@valeriehowden471]

Loved the original knit version before I learned how to knit. Now to knit it or crochet it, that is the question. Perhaps both ways! That crochet i-cord Is so simple compared to 2 others I've tried. Thanks!

Yay! This is just the thing, I need, a beautiful stitch, a project to learn foundation double crochet, and time to spend with you. How perfect! I love this teal color, in all three yarns. Wow! That said, I plan to use some pewter bamboo, for a family member, that is hypersensitive to most yarn fibers. Now, let’s get started! Thank you! Blessings 🕊💕🕯😇🙏🏻💚

[@deloriskornya6725]

Oh my gosh, all those strings! I am glad, for my first time, making this, I am using one color and one yarn! This is so delightful, the need to focus, and the shine on this rayon yarn I am using, is nice. Hopefully, it doesn’t prove to be too heavy. Rayon from bamboo, has a nice shine and drape, but it has proven to be too heavy for a couple projects I have done. So far, so good. Plus, all the style options, surely one will work. 🥰

Thank you so much for doing this pattern in crochet style ! I saw it in the wine country but I did not realized that is was knitting. I just started with crochet and I ready for my first piece to wear ! I live in Hot Florida but needs something for those breeze days or change of weather ...Can you do a video about explaining Yarns that could work on hot weather and crochet patterns about it ? . Having a very hard time to find yarns that are good quality and can work for hot weather .We only find cotton, but I like the yarn or crochet sticky that will create a flow and movement. I so excited for this project ! Thank you and greetings from Fort Lauderdale, FL

Thanks for the written pattern also so I can copy that down in my pattern book,very helpful. As it's nice to choose your own background entertainment to go along with your creativity. Not that watching your video isn't good cuz it is. You Re clear, thorough and relaxing to crochet with. Does the pattern keep changing then? No so...many rows repeat?

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

Hi Amy, glad you enjoy our tutorials and patterns. I think the pattern calls for 120 rows total plus 2 rows if edging. I hope this answers your question. 💕

[@wiLDaBoUtCoLoR]

One question. Is there enough yarn to make it bigger in the depth? I absolutely love the color of the mixed weight yarns in this video for sure! Thank you.

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

Yes, you should, although the yarns we used in this sample all had different yardages per skein. We used a total of approximately 825 yards for the sample shown, including the tassel and i-cords with the following yarns: (A) Resilient Sock (4 oz, 400 yds) (B) Sparkle DK (3.5 oz, 275 yds) (C) Pearlescent Fingering (4 oz, 550 yds) So the ability to make it larger will depend on the yarns you choose.

[@saraimemijes4011]

Oh✨ thank you very much, I liked the concept!!! a very good idea, only that it would also be good if there were subtitles in Spanish, because to make it easier for us Spanish speakers to see your videos☺️, my mother likes your content and I I wish that she could understand, thank you very much!✨✨✨

I would probably spritz block your finished cashmere piece. I've known people who will wet block cashmere and seem to have no problems, but it's such a delicate fiber that my inclination would be to start with the gentlest method. Hope that helps!
