🔥 Frequently Asked Questions:
Do you have a left handed version of this video? If you are left handed, you can convert ANY video on KZbin yourself! Simply go to www.mirrorthev... and follow the instructions to mirror flip any video to convert to left handed!
How much yarn will I need? This is a very tricky question to answer as there are so many variables! How much yarn you need will depend on which yarn you choose, the thickness of that yarn, your tension and how large you want your finished project to be. I suggest making a small sample first so you can gauge how much yarn you'll need. If making a crochet square, you can weigh your finished square to work out how much yarn it used!
How many squares do I need for a blanket? That all depends on the size of the square you are making and how big you want your finished blanket to be! I always advise making one square first then measuring the size of it. From there you can work out how many squares you will need to get the blanket size you want 😀
Do you have the written pattern? Yes! I have written patterns to accompany my video tutorials on my website here: www.hookedbyro... The written pattern is generally released a week or so after the video tutorial to ensure there are no errors in the video itself and to make amendments in the written version if any are found. All the written patterns are FREE to access on my website
How can I print the pattern from your website? Do you have downloadable PDF's? Not at this time no. This may change in the future but for now, I only provide the written pattern directly on my website.
Can you remake this video so it is slower? If the video speed is too fast, you can slow it down! 😀 See this video on exactly how: • How to Adjust the Spee...
Why do you use American stitch terminology? I learnt using USA stitch terms, long before I even knew there was a difference between UK & US terminology! American terms are my "first language" so to speak. If you need a conversion chart, I have one here! www.hookedbyro...

Thank you so much! I've been crocheting for 38 years and had no idea that this could be done. How cool!

[@FloridaGrandma]

Didn't even know this was possible!!! This couldn't have been found at a better time. I don't have long to live, barring a miracle, and I'm trying to make blankets for all my grandkids before I can't anymore. This will be a tremendous timesaver for me and may make the difference between them all having something from me for years to come and only some of them getting a blanket. I'm crying tears of joy and relief and thanking God for letting me find this just when I thought I would need a time machine to get them all done. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU❣️❣️❣️

Lynn, what beautiful gifts you're giving to your grandchildren. I KNOW you will succeed getting all of them done. The power of will is phenomenal and you have that will. Bless you dear Lynn, and I hope for a miracle for you. I want you to know that my grandmother embroidered a tablecloth for me to add to my hope chest (yes, I'm from the era of hope chests)! and that has been over 45 years ago. I still have it and still use it on holidays and I put it on the table on her birthday. I will be passing it to one of my daughters. Your grandchildren will keep it for all their lives, I guarantee it. I still have that hope chest filled with memento's for my children and grandchildren as well.

[@kimberlinn2527]

God bless u Lynn! I am sure your grandchildren will treasure their blankets for yrs to come knowing they were made with such love! I pray that you receive healing, for u to get your miracle & to live a long prosperous life! Always believe in miracles & NEVER give up on the brink of one! We never know when we will receive a miracle so as my pastor always says, “we all are always on the brink of one, so have faith & never lose hope.” Prayers, Blessings, Peace, Love & Healing to you!🙏🏻😊✌🏻💖🌻 Kim P.S. I wrote this verse on my bathroom mirror to remind me to NEVER give up on ANYTHING & to always have hope & faith. It is my favorite verse. Hebrews 11:1 “Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”

@Gail and Robin, I enjoy learning new stitches. Just last night I learned how to crochet a crocodile stitch, which I am making my mom ( who is also a crocheter, which I learned from her when I was about 3 or 4yrs of age) a shawl. She wants to learn the Crocodile Stitch as well. I just watch the videos several times and I proceed making the stitches while listening to them

[@HA-zg1jc]

This stitch is sooo much fun, thank youuu! I was playing around with it when my husband got home from work and he was amazed - said I was the master of crochet, haha! I found it a bit tricky at first but after just a short while I was really getting into the swing of it. What I really like is how it feels as I work it - it just flows back and forth rather than the quick up, down and twist of a regular DC - and I think it's going to be much less painful on my rheumatic wrists and hands, especially when making larger items. I also love the way it looks, it's so interesting as it grows, and there's a certain softness and drapiness (is that a word?!) to it that regular rows of DC lack. Thanks so much for making such a clear and easy to follow tutorial, your efforts and talent are very much appreciated! :)

[@HookedbyRobin]

It definitely flows nicely once you get into the rhythm!

[@ragdiann1]

You can do more than two rows at a time. I got to wondering if it could be done and it is possible. Chain the number needed for your project, then add 2 more chains for each additional row you want to crochet at the same time...then add 1 more chain. Then use the technique you did of yo and insert hook and pull up loops, etc. For doing three rows at once. You would add 7 more chains. Thank you for sharing this technique. (Or just add 2 chains for each row...thus for 3 rows you would add 6 chains. As The Trouble With Trebles suggested in the pinned comment.)

Hi! 😊 Omg... I couldn't help myself... I just had to tell you that even though I alternate the way I hold my hook (because of hand cramps), I always use my index finger to control the yarn on my hook to prevent myself from pulling it through too many loops. It's a time saver not having to undo stitches. Glad to know you do this too! Cheers! 👍😊

[@timewoundsallheels4ever]

Fun idea! I don’t think it saves much time compared to normal dc stitching but it surely changes the colour pattern when using variegated yarns.

[@thetroublewithtrebles1362]

@@HookedbyRobin Thanks. This stitch of yours is _wonderful,_ so I'm just glad to be able to give something back. While I was practicing the stitch, I had an idea about how to make the _end_ of a row straighter, too. It's a bit convoluted, so I hope I can explain it… There's a loop at the end of the row that makes a small lump on the side. Well, before inserting your hook into the top of the last stitch in the row below, insert the hook down into that loop, from the top, then, with a bit of a twist, put the hook through the top of the stitch below, as usual. Capturing that otherwise loose loop makes the end of the row straighter. I hope I made that clear. Please feel free to ask for clarification, if I didn't. And, of course, I'd appreciate your feedback.

[@HookedbyRobin]

@@thetroublewithtrebles1362 that makes sense to me! As for the stitch, I cannot claim credit for inventing it, I'm merely sharing it! I love when people tinker and tweak something to make it better so thank you for taking the time to have a play with it and report back! 💕

[@tbays9577]

More simply.. 3x-1= chains needed after making width, where is x is rows wanted. 2x+1 is number of stitches the is supposed to be on hook when stitches are picked up properly. I have tested this with 20 rows on Afghan hook.

Life. Changed. I had to pick my jaw up from the floor. My favorite crochet project to do is what I just call a "scrap blanket." I have virtually no budget at all for crocheting, so when I have just $2-3 to spare, I got to my local thrift store. They have bags of yarn for 99 cents that are mostly just small balls of yarn, whatever was left of a skein sort of thing, always in random colors, different weights, styles, etc. Each bag is probably a total of 700-1000 yards of yarn, and you never know what you'll get. And I use them to make small blankets, foundation chain of 120-150, and then just rows of dc until it's as long as I like. I can't wait to start another blanket using this stitch!

[@Patricia.R.]

I recently learned to avoid the wonky edge by turning and slip stitching into the last stitch made before chaining... I created a swatch along with you, and worked my edge ( row ends) in that manner , chaining 5 AFTER an end of row turn, slip stitch IN LAST STITCH... and continued this double row stitch. Ta-dah! Straight edges! I am super happy to find your channel today. I can’t wait to try this for a project! Also, I found your channel via a search for continuous granny block attaching (?) Perfect! Love your channel. Your newest follower!👍🏼❤️

Wow! First time hearing about this awesome stitch! Thank you for this clear and concise tutorial 👍🏼

[@HookedbyRobin]

You are very welcome!

[@jacquiwaters4676]

Have just learned this and I’m amazed to find your video is 4 years old!!! Just tried this method and worked out a way to avoid the bulge … go into the second stitch in the row! Works a treat and the side is straight!

[@HookedbyRobin]

That’s fantastic Jacqui!😃🧶

[@stephanieweiss8680]

[@Melindas.Stitchy.Corner]

I'll have to give this a try soon! I'm always making a lot of baby blankets, so this would help me so much!

[@HookedbyRobin]

It's super speedy!

This is Absolutely Crochet Gold💫💛🪙🏆🌟

[@HookedbyRobin]

Thank you so much Marsha! 🤗

[@janesenkyr3125]

Ok! I timed myself doing your two lined crochet vs 2 lines of the regular double crochet. It took me 15 seconds longer the regular way. But! The texture of the double line is much softer. I will be using this more often cuz it does take away from the same-old.. same-old

[@maipensapparot]

this magic of crochet made my day! not sure it's faster with all the loops but sure is more fun than plain DCing 2 rows

[@sandrabeamon7151]

This is so awesome.I love this I have not heard of this before and I would love to thank you for sharing this with us . God bless you in many ways and have a great day. Thanks again

[@bananapeaches6370]

The way your fingers are when you crochet looks perfect ... you make it look so easy and natural :) great video! Thank you for it!

[@saminasuhail5801]

Amazing magic loops indeed👍👍

[@macyhinds5968]

OMG WOMAN!!!!!!! DO YOU REALIZE HOW MUCH YOU JUST IMPROVED MY LIFE💕💕💕 where has this been all my life.I have started probably 10 different afghans and stopped because it was taking forever! This will make it go by so much more quickly and if not it will at least trick my brain into thinking it is lol

[@HookedbyRobin]

LOL I am the same - sooo impatient and I get bored really easily making larger blankets😂

[@drumminwoman5646]

I've just come across this video, and of course I had to try it out. AND... I like the way the sides look. They aren't wonky; they're scalloped! Who needs a border when you have these lovely undulating edges.

[@giseletannous6873]

First thank u so much for sharing ❤️ that is amazing.. second regarding the edges, i started with a chain of 4 instead of 5.. it straightened out the edges perfectly similarly to when u do each row separately.. That is for because when chaining 5, you are starting the two rows in each round, one by a chain of 2 and one by a chain of 3.. and a longer chain at the beginning of the row makes it a bit more bumpy.. while a chain of 4 wld give each row a starting chain of 2, so it evens it up.. However, there is one other thing i altered that even made it look exactly like a regular double crochet without that slanted loop.. u know that loop where you yarn over and don’t pull through, i actually pulled through and yarned over again before going into that stitch at the bottom.. thats it.. it made it perfect.. is there any way i can send u a picture to show u?

[@HookedbyRobin]

I'd love to see a pic! I'm on social media if you are - hooked by Robin on Facebook or @puddnhead on Instagram:D

[@nvi-uscrochetdesynz2603]

When u ch4 instead of 5 which ch do u go into to begin the 2nd or the 3rd like in the video?

[@cheribiddix6522]

GENIUS!!!! I'm trying it this weekend! Thank you for sharing

[@HookedbyRobin]

[@eyeamwilo]

Crocheting Like a Boss

[@HookedbyRobin]

✊ yeah!!

[@Amanda-mt2hx]

Have you tried this stitch starting with an extra chain 2-3 for a sc appearance or even a chain 6-7 for a treble crochet? I can only imagine how helpful this will be in larger time intensive patterns. Especially if you’re able to inc or dec the rows and use it in circular patterns.

[@scorpiobytes7273]

Didn't know this was a thing will most definitely be using this 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@mauritateed8185]

That was worth taking a look at. I'm pleased I watched it, very good

[@fthorpe]

What is this magic??? Amazing!

[@christinelovell674]

That is totally amazing!! Love your videos Thank You

[@mohinderkaur1804]

Waoo very good idea.I never think that two rows can make together.Thank you for sharing

[@selinarootlieb3230]

This is awesome! Did not know this was possible!

[@amethystskeels3788]

J~ Came here for the video, leaving here with a need for that yarn, thanks a lot. I just spent like 60$ on yarn and now I want ANOTHER and it's all your fault! You people and your awesome yarns are making me sad that I'm not willing to go broke on more yarn (ok my husband isn't willing to but it makes me seem like I have some control)

[@HookedbyRobin]

Ah yes! I’d love every yarn too 😂🧶 x

[@luminariel3765]

This is wonderful! I've used less yarn in my projects thanks to this stitch, it's super economical. Thank you so much for sharing it! Edit: I have just realized that you can make the stitch as tall as you want depending on how many multiples of three you increase the chain by when making the first stitch!

[@simone-clairehunter4886]

Oh my goodness, where has this stitch been all my life??!! Well OK for the last 18 months since I took up crocheting. You teach so clearly, thank you so much x

[@HookedbyRobin]

You are welcome, I am so happy my video helps Simone-Claire! 😃🧶

[@myrian54]

[@jeanthompson4053]

Have crocheted for years. Will have to try on next project. Am now knitting baby hats for local hospital. Keep up the videos.

[@donnalynn2]

That is the coolest thing I have ever seen!!!!!!! Is there a way to increase/decrease thus way? I thought after so many years of crocheting there was nothing new under the sun, how wrong I was!!!

[@karenmcdonald9904]

Donna Lynn I’m not sure if it’s going to fit

[@ddskolataskitchen7965]
