I LOVE that you demonstrated how to hold this yarn. I love the softness and look of it, but, it's a bear to work with. I have arthritis and every time I work with it, my hands hurt and are sore. This technique rocks!! You are brilliant!!

Forgot to put in the video that I used 2 balls of yarn but I made a very small blanket. You will need more if you want to make a larger one.

QUESTION: Can you please recommend a border to use with this stitch? I can really appreciate your input on this. Thanks a bunch and I am super excited as I've only been crocheting 11 months now and I'm proud of my project. looking forward to seeing more of your tutorials.

Quick question... at 5:00 it is explained how to start that next row by going in the smaller edge loop - is that the same for each new row start? If so, I got confused by the statement about continuing the project using the big spaces and my sides started tapering inwards. Thanks for the awesome video!

i am having trouble keeping even sides on the blanket - i know i started loose and as i became more comfortable my stitch a bit tighter so the blanket has a funnier shape to it. is there something i can do to fix this without having to take the whole thing apart? I just taught myself to crochet from youtube videos a week ago and this is my first project! other than wonky sides, it came out pretty good. :)

usually if the sides are off, it's because the rows don't have the same amount of posts. Do you count your stitches?
