1st time watching, just wanted to say i like this person he's very clear and concise, his voice sounds very calm and relaxed, making it easy to follow along.

[@TheCrochetCrowd]

Thanks Krista... I do try my best. - Mikey

[@kathleenthornton-ro4bt]

My new favorite afghan . Easy on these old fingers.

[@robinbeeman2629]

I have started 3 patterns , trying to find the best one for my aunt. I saw this on and said VOILA!! Here it is. I love the row of chains and sc. Such a unique twist. Thank you so much. My aunt will love it.

[@amandapryar4675]

This is the best way to crochet a blanket and I'm now in my second week. I'm not the fastest person to do this but I'm finding it very relaxing. I've tried doing granny squares but I could never stitch them together, I don't have to worry about it with this blanket. I have lots of small bundles of wool and after I have finished this ( my FIRST blanket) I'm going to use all my small bundles, it will keep me interested whilst changing the colours.

[@TheCrochetCrowd]

That sounds wonderful. Sounds like a worthy first blanket. 😊

[@gj9736]

Mikey you are the best instructor I have ever come across! Your tutorials are very detailed and very easy to understand and I also like that you explain the yarn and the hook you need besides your diagrams you often have on, thank you for all the beautiful patterns you bring us!

[@genevievemilot2425]

I just tried this and it was easy making it for a bed ridden cousin and so happy with the results so far thank you for making it so easy

[@feliciaodd3116]

[@robynpennington8785]

[@maryannsullivan4336]

How many big cakes did you use?

[@inova4556754]

Thanks, I made a bed cover using this pattern, turned out great!

[@tammyjensen4041]

I absolutely love how this blanket works up. Easy to do and turns out beautifully.

[@patriciahehir3576]

Can’t get this wool in Galway ireland. What is comparable.

[@patricesteiner1168]

Just made this! I *love* the way it turned out!.So grateful for this pattern - I tried and frogged three or four patterns before I found this. The modern version of the classic granny is just perfect for my godson’s wife. (I think she’ll like the beachy colors I chose.) Thank you, Jeannie! And thank you, Mikey, for the easy-as-pie tutorial! Thank you thank you thank you!!

[@irock4735]

I made this blanket! My first crocheted blanket project!! Thank you so much! 😃

Thank you for this pattern I am on my third baby afghan using the modern rectangle. I got back into crocheting making your moss stitch dishcloths. You are a good instructor and I appreciate your style and generosity in filming videos. Thank you.

[@susim7975]

I love this pattern. It is my favorite to make. I am on my second one. I made a small lap blanket last year using caron big cakes. My daughter said it was the prettiest one she has seen me make. And that is saying something. She never cares much for the things I make. But this she likes the pattern. Now I am making another one. Granddaughter has ordered one too. LOL Thanks for making this pattern

[@calliekatielady]

Omg this is my favorite stich. I think its called a brick stich. This is definitely my next project!

[@jmariaharb6394]

Great stitch and very versatile. Made two shawls: top down and bottom up. Also you can add a bead stitch row in afghan to add interest. Thanks for this pattern

[@JeanetteJanniello]

Thank you. You make it so easy. Jeanette from the Bronx, New York🧶

[@1579kimba]

I just finished a baby blanket following your tutorial. It’s beautiful and I love it!, thank you!

[@TheCrochetCrowd]

[@sandeefuchs6296]

I loved watching your video. I am a beginner and would love to try to make this Modern Granny Square blanket. Mike does a wonderful job explaining the patterns. 👍Thank you….

[@TheCrochetCrowd]

Wonderful! Excellent. Enjoy your journey.

[@marthareisz6740]

Perfect! Just what I have been looking for to use my cakes! Thank you !

[@mylittleflicka]

Thanks for your videos. I am a knitter and do Tunisian crochet as well. I can read patterns just fine, however, i find reading “crochet” patterns difficult, or at least this one, as I am having trouble focusing on these symbols and “where the hell am I”. Your video cleared it all up for me and I have this memorized now. I am a visual learner. Also, you did an entrelac blanket video as well and I had wonderful success with the blanket I made. Thanks again!!

[@ensartain]

I've made this blanket three times for gifts, I love it and it works with so many types of yarns!

[@crazybooklady2104]

cool love the yarn your using.purple is my favorite color.

[@monicaevans7271]

Thank you Mickey I am crocheting one of these awesome blankets using Caron cakes - pop. I am from Australia and got some of these at Spotlight.

[@SomewhereInIndiana1816]

Beautiful blanket!! 👏👍🤩. Adding to my try-it list!

[@marybethgoodwin3750]

Just got some Cotton Cakes and this pattern is working up so nice I'm obsessed

[@TheCrochetCrowd]

Please share it on The Crochet Crowd wall when it's done! I'd love to see it. :) ~ Jeanne

[@ruthhingston6939]

Love this striking pattern. I am on my third throw. So simple to do too. A winner!

I like this a lot so I'm doing one for my niece, she asked me.Thank you for the tutorial that way i can follow the writen pattern easily. Mikey you are wounderful.

[@nanad5362]

Mikey Dear, Im starting on my 6th Modern Granny. So simple to make, so impactful! I ve done them each time with Cakes, but have changed up the hook size and found I like 4.5 the best. Not an earth shattering change, but it just makes the spaces a wee but smaller. Hugs and thanks to you and Daniel.

[@drumminwoman5646]

I have soooo much leftover yarn. Gonna try this with two strands and a larger hook to make a scrappy, super-warm blanket.

[@TheCrochetCrowd]

That would be neat!

[@Kimzeb0410]

Thank you Mikey for doing this tutorial. Terri from Yarnjoy is making this blanket and,she has inspired me to make one.

[@lovebug2664]

Just finished my baby blanket using Bernat's Baby Giggles in Cheer Up. Worked up so fast!

[@crochetcrazylady9905]

seems to work up quickly~ love the blue/grey, and white in the picture….love the contrast….Happy New Year All~ be safe~

[@kimberlyhelmick386]

If you like the color change, you have to try Caron Big Cakes. I think you would love them.

[@angelahampel8159]

Love this pattern! I used a differnt yarn but it turned out pretty and easy to follow thanks for your clear instructions

[@redraven_y2k]

@Angela Johnson how long did it take you to finish.

[@angelahampel8159]

@@redraven_y2k no very long at all. But I made a baby blanket.

[@tamaram200]

I OH my Goodness! I made one. It is so pretty I will make another! Thank you!

[@Siamecho]

I really like how this looks. Thank you Mikey for your tutorials. I have tried this several times and i kept getting frustrated and would pull it out and go on to something else. BUT that means I just watch a different tutorial and learn something else. Each tutorial you present teaches me something new and builds my confidence. And today I'm finally 'getting it' and smacking myself for making it more complicated than it was :P

[@ejsgilliland]

In the videos please always say how you stop at the finished product! New beginners won't know, and if you place a border on them! Love watching you teach us new items! Looking forward to seeing more! God bless! Oh even the experience crocheters need new ideas!lol
