Love it ❤🎉 my granddaughter would love a blanket made of this yarn. You have given me an idea!

[@ricklewis2626]

Thank you Wendy ..♥️🙏♥️

I do believe this a "modified seed stitch" And to get the alternating stitches you must have a odd number on your foundation row. At the end you will chain 2 and turn. You should always start with a half and end the row with a treble . That way when you chain up 2 and turn the stitches will be alternating. A stitch marker will help too, but if you remember to always start with a half and end with a treble will also keep your patteren correct .

THANK YOU!!!

[@Heart-toHand]

@@WendysWay no problem..hope you didn't mind me chiming in .. I've made this before..diffrent yarn but the same patteren. I did enjoy your video and love the yarn you picked .. ❤

[@WendysWay]

@@Heart-toHand I love that you chimed in! I'm no expert and appreciate all input, especially from other experienced crocheters.

Thank you Wendy the upside of this is that you get the puffiness without the yarn, eating puff stitch lol I happen to have the red heart fruity in my stash. Also the retro which is more of baby colors either one love this variation of the seed stitch.

[@thryssinstitches9655]

I never thought of doing my first row into my foundation row that way! Its bloody brilliant! Thank you!

[@karendodds5804]

Love the colour of that yarn 😍😍

[@sandygrogg1203]

Fruity Stripes is one of my favorites,,,

[@6996katmom]

I always used red heart yarn, but now I switched to hobby lobby yarn because it is softer. I made a shawl for the organ player at church. She said she was always cold and wanted a shawl. So I had a big skein of red heart ombre left from another project. But as I was stitching it the yarn felt so rough I almost didn't make it. But, I used it and bought another skein to finish the project. Well, she absolutely loved it. She wore it to church Tuesday and she was glowing. She loved it. But, I will not use red heart anymore because of the stiffness of the yarn. It was very hard to crochet with. Have a Wonderful & Blessed Day!

[@sandygrogg1203]

I have found that washing, and rinsing with a good fabric softener helps a lot. I was surprised at how rough the Ombré yarns felt... I bought a couple of skeins, but have not used them as yet. The Stripes soften up quite a bit...and the colors do stay bright...

That was very pretty get a very good job

[@jackia8815]

Nice color. Also looks like it matches your blouse.

[@sharlenechapman6718]

It's luscious! Love it. Thanks for sharing

[@WendysWay]

Thank you! It was one of the quickest and prettiest I've made lately. :)

[@LuannCullison]

I have used this stitch before as well, but i don't know its name either. Love the color! Your. Camera needs to be from the same angle as you, facing the same way you are.

[@charlottebarnes6761]

I've been wanting to make something with this yarn I love this yarn now you gave me the idea thank you

[@lostosbourne]

Wow that is beautiful! This video was in my suggestions & the colors caught my eye. I'm so glad I clicked on it. That's a nice stitch. I think I will try it sometime. I've been crocheting since I was a child when my Grandmother taught me. I'm always looking for new interesting & easy crochet stitches. I look forward to more of your videos. I am now a subscriber. Have a great day!

[@WendysWay]

Thank you so much!! My mom taught me the basics when I was about 10 and I picked up more from books in my 30's. Now I watch KZbin tutorials often and learn something new nearly every day. My channel is not quite a month old and this video has gotten the most views; I assumed it was the colorful thumbnail that caught everyone's eye. Thanks for confirming it for me. :) I'm working on my filming so that I can show you the crochet from my angle to make it easier to see what I am doing. Check out Oana's Crochet Channel on KZbin. She's not for entry level and some of her stuff is over my head yet, but she makes beautiful things and is inspiring me to try garments.

[@lostosbourne]

I think you are doing great! Keep it up! Yes I love watching Mikey from the Crochet Crowd. He taught me a few different stitches & he really knows how to explain things. I will check out Oana. Thank you!

[@sandygrogg1203]

I actually have this gorgeous yarn in my stash! This is ...I think...a variation of the Suzette stitch, which I love. I will definitely give it a try. I don’t have an L hook, but I thunk my K will work.. it produces a pretty big stitch, and I use it for most of my blankets....except for the preemie/ baby ones, of course. I have found that washing, and rinsing with a good fabric softener really softens any yarn yo quite a bit.

I am a new subscriber, and I will continue to watch!

[@nereydaholland8767]

Love the colors just beautiful. Just came across your channel . I will be subscribing and looking forward to more of your videos. Greetings from Canada.

[@WendysWay]

Thank you so much!! This spring will likely be dominated with gardening more than crochet but I will strive to keep posting fiber videos as well.

[@sandygrogg1203]

OMG...I do remember diaper pins!

[@Sharon-hy4zx]

Beautiful!!! Are there written instructions?? TY

[@WendysWay]

I admit, it's been years since I made this video and I do not recall. It's possible someone else commented on it. 😀

[@HeartfeltYarNGardenCrafter]

It's been over a year since you've posted. I hope you are well. I just stumbled in to your channel. Blessings 🙏😇❤️

[@MagickThoughts]

half treble and double treble in the UK I think

[@jestermann]

Hello there how many chains when starting a new row? Love the colors. I have same yarn except parrot stripes color.

[@WendysWay]

Very sorry I don't remember how many stitches I started with. I gave the blanket to a girlfriend who had a baby and wanted a bold, colorful blanket. :)

[@charlottebarnes6761]

How many stitches for this blanket thank you

[@arankaszabo8333]

May I ask how many chains you make on the corners?

[@cedarshoals529]

Not enough explanation. Is the first row like all of them? At the end of a row do you chain 1? 2? etc etc

[@LuannCullison]

Some else did explain the stitch in the comments. Chain odd number to begin. Always start with half double and end with treble. Turn with 2 chains.

[@shaneeferguson3803]

How many yarns did you use?
