🔥 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.mirrorthevideo.com/ 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.hookedbyrobin.com 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.hookedbyrobin.com/crochet...

That’s great robin . Going to start this, love 💕 all your beautiful crochet 🧶. Big thank you for all your tutorials. Keep em coming .

[@rachelknight1064]

I love this - I am going to use it in Autumnal colours to look like berries, on blankets I am making for my granddaughters. Their names are Rose, Daisy and Autumn so I am incorporating all three designs into blankets predominantly based on their favourite colours. Wish me luck!

[@tootscarlson]

Good luck this sounds lovely.

I have always shied away from doing squares or panels or anything that require sewing. When I found this pattern I was a little nervous about it. The join as you go technique was a little confusing at first but I am getting it!! Loving every minutes of this! Thank you for your beautiful pattern!! Can't wait to finish this!!

Who else is already sourcing yarn and deciding on a color palette before the written pattern is released? LOL Update: I went with Premier Anti-Pilling in color Dove w/ Loops & Threads Snuggly Wuggly Dip Dye in color Carnations, for a queen-sized bed. :D

[@HookedbyRobin]

OH! I'd completely forgotten about the written side of things! 🙈 It'll be up on my blog in the next couple of days (sorry! Lol)

How beautiful! 💕 Thank you for sharing your time and amazing talent. I am still a relatively new crocheter and, in all honesty, I have been afraid of granny squares...the idea of sewing all the squares together is quite daunting. With your join as you go method, I might have the courage to give it a shot. 😄😄😄 Thank you again. Sending you and yours all the best. Please stay well, safe and happy.

Lovely. Just lovely. I made mine like a Daisy because I love Daisies, lol. Now if I want to make a whole blanket out of these, I need to go buy more white and yellow yarn cuz this one's a yarn eater, lol! Can't wait to get a few done and then come back for the JAYG part of this tutorial. Thank you for this, it was very easy to follow, esp for someone who is intimidated by this stitch.
