Can this be done with any size hook?

[@ZechZMandalorian]

@@Thunder-acro I'm using a 10.00 mm size hook.. I'm winging a "baby blanket" with a nice fluffy yarn. I love this stitch! Thank you for sharing @Hooked by Robin

[@nelliehedrick3147]

I'm 72 learned to crochet from my Grammaw when I was 10. I love watching you and your voice is soothing... Even at 72 you have taught me alot of new stitches..

[@HookedbyRobin]

Thank you for such a lovely comment Nellie! So glad you enjoy the videos 🥰

[@deborahm4484]

Hi Nellie I am 72 as well and I totally agree with you robin is fantastic,like you I've crocheted all my life but have learned a lot from robin,💙💙

[@maureenkoro782]

Hi Maureen Koro from the Oceania and am 27 ,I love watching your videos . it's help me broden my knitting Technics and also improve my skills

[@GrandmaLM]

I also learned from my grandma. I’m 76. She only did doilies and in the end of her life she crochet chains to hang medals on for the missions.

[@footfault]

Ha, ha, same here! Most of my life I've knitted, and it's just in the past couple of years I've learned so much from the crocheting you-tube instructors. Robin is excellent, isn't she? Love this V stitch, a novelty for me.

[@cathyrandolph7135]

The V stitch is probably my favorite. I’m so glad you knotted those ends before weaving. Some people say knots are a no-no, but I always knot when I can to make things more secure.

[@litax005]

Right? I also, most of the things I make are to being washed so I want it to be secure and don’t just get “dismembered” in the wash machine 😂

[@Doodlecream]

Fr I’m not going to spend endless hours on a project just so that it will unravel

[@MissTrixie29]

Save time! If you're going to be doing a repeat pattern, run the yarn up the side and never cut the yarn. Don't pull it tight or it will pull weird on the edges. Cover them up with a border. I've done as many as 5 colors with baby yarn but 3-4 with thicker yarn is the max I recommend. I did a whole blanket of alternating colors and didn't cut once, saves time and yarn!

[@laurelgirard8475]

I never knot my ends. Absolutely no knots. I crochet my ends in so well sometimes I can’t undo them . But we all find the method we are comfortable with.

[@marigeobrien]

@@laurelgirard8475 -- I, too, love the no-knotting method (which Robin actually uses when changing colors) because it's just as secure as knots, but no bumps. I've never had one unravel-- it can't as long as the other yarn is in place. The important thing is, as Robin did, to weave the tails in changing direction and going in at least 3 directions. Not just running it along one way. When you do that, it can easily come out if it's repeatedly pulled in that direction.

[@filippakapetanou3792]

I'm sooo glad l found you!! I am a beginner and you explain everything so patiently so everyone can understand what you are doing!! Thank you so much!!😊

[@Subliminal.Radiation]

This is such a beautiful stitch, hard to believe it's so easy to do! My grandma has a blanket that her grandmother made using this stitch (and despite its age, it's in perfect condition!)

[@Bellllllz]

[@marievanwyk5932]

I've made so many blankets but come back to the V-stitch every time. So simple and not heavy on yarn. Thank you.

[@HookedbyRobin]

You’re so welcome Marie!🥰🧶

[@lorrainemorin]

pretty yarn. I weave my ends in after every 5th row. That way there are not as many to do at the end of the project.

[@Kayla_Kimbrell]

Your video literally taught me the V stitch. I'm on my second practice swatch now. Next I will introduce a second color. I've come back to your video several times to check my work and to rewatch it as I go. I can't wait to make something with the V stitch!

[@krazymammaw3040]

What size hook are you using and are you using a chunky yarn or a 4 4ply that hook looks like a 6.0mm

[@lindarandall]

I always love your tutorials. I too have learned so much from you. I would like to also compliment you on your beautiful hands and lovely nails. I am so turned off by those who do the tutorials with dirty finger nails. I’m sure some will criticize me but I just think that if one is filming their hands they could at least have clean hands and fingernails. I can not grow nice fingernails but they are always clean. Especially after a year of being told to wash our hands fo health. Love the V stitch!

Hello, may you be well. Can you please do a tutorial of the iris Stitch if you know it? Or can you do the Irish Stitch using this same concept? I have looked up Iris stitches and different people are saying different things about the foundation on the Chain where you go back into chain 5 and then you skip over to chain for so it's very confusing for me and the way you're doing this and showing it in a slow manner helps a great deal because not only are you explaining what you're doing but I'm able to see it slowly period and that helps a lot because it's very frustrating when there are so many tutorials but everybody's saying something different and or not being slow enough or not showing what they mean about going back into which chain to do it.
