How to Crochet | Fluffy Cotton Candy Crochet Stitch | Textured double crochet -Crochet for Baby

Hi 👋 my name is Sara welcome to my channel Crochet for Baby. In today's tutorial I will show you how to crochet my fluffy cotton candy crochet stitch. It’s fast and easy perfect for making crochet baby blankets, scarfs, sweaters, cardigans, dresses, baby afghans, crochet hats and so much more.
For the tutorial I used medium #4 yarn with a 5mm Crochet hook. You can use any type of yarn as long as you use the recommended crochet hook size. The stitch multiple is 3.
To make a blanket: With a 4.5mm hook and #3 baby yarn make 141 chains. If you want it bigger add chains in increments of 9. If you want it smaller then take chains off in groups of 3. Continue for about 42 rows or until you have the size you want or until it looks square. Finish your blanket with a border of your choice. Here’s a beautiful and easy border that I recommend for this stitch • Easy Crochet border fo...

Very nice tutorial. Easy to understand. This is called the sedge stitch.

[@annasgottacrochet4281]

So neat that such basic, easy to do stitches, can create such a pretty texture. 💕

[@stephanie2120]

This is such a beautiful stitch for a baby blanket! I was searching for hours looking for the perfect stitch, and i'm so glad I went with this one! Its coming out perfect! I am always worried the stitch I choose will be rough and tight, but this one is perfect. Its puffy and fluffy, just like cotton candy clouds! Thank you so much!

Hello what border do you advise for this baby blanket. Thanks

I've used this stitch several times. In the Reader's Digest 1975, same stitch but with a different name, something like the bushy stitch.

[@nanasuhaili8914]

Hi, please make a video on how to extend/add the rowww. I missed few and don’t know how to add it to the exist crochet

[@brookaleena4277]

Great video !! I would like to use bernat blanket for this. Not sure so I would like to make something clear. You posted its a multiple of 3 and if I would want the blanket larger, make it incriments of 10. Do I still add 3 at the end of the chain and come in 3 when starting my chain ? Also, 3 is not an even number but 10 is. I would like to be clear before I start my blanket. Is there anyone who has crocheted this blanket for a larger size. Thank you for your help !!

[@CrochetForBaby]

Thank you for pointing this out. It should be add or remove stitches in increments of 9. I’ll correct it in the description box.

[@meganrodriguez8181]

This stitch is beautiful. I’m going to try to make my niece a beautiful blanket. Would it be hard to do two different colors?

[@CrochetForBaby]

The only thing would be to do two rows that way you don’t cut the yarn you just carry it on one side. Good luck 👍

looks easy enough ty

Hi I’m crocheting this now , just curious as to which border you would recommend for this blanket ? Thanks in advance

[@CrochetForBaby]

I’d recommend the same one I did for this baby blanket kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJakpmh4aKuDldU

[@crochetpartay]

i have a question. I need to make about 7 hats for christmas. I thought for a soft yarn, instead of using RH super saver or carons lb yarn, I would try the Lions pound of love yarn. My question is, is that pound of love yarn a lot softer and good to use for hats? I have never used it and my hats usually come stiff with the other economy yarns

[@CrochetForBaby]

Yes it’s very soft. What I do when I use economy yarn is wash the item first with a little fabric softener and that helps make it nice and soft. Just make sure to put your items inside a lingerie bag.

[@crochetpartay]

[@vanessapereira8007]

What size is this blanket

[@CrochetForBaby]

This was just a sample of the stitch but you can make it in any size using the stitch multiple mentioned in the video.

[@DottyGran247]

Beautiful, if I wanted to do a stripe version what row would I change colour...your advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for another fab tutorial. Ann

[@CrochetForBaby]

I would do two rows of one color then 1 row in another color to get your stripe design. Or two rows of each color. Thanks for watching 😊

[@DottyGran247]

Crochet For Baby ok, thank you for your quick reply, very helpful 👍💕

[@carrieblair1115]

Can you tell me how you finish the blanket to add a border.

[@ninahymel6510]

Once your blanket is finished do single crochets around the whole blanket. That gives you a clean edge to add a boarder too

[@littlebopeep2190]

The blanket stitch

[@KH-rf1pt]

Nobody ever says how many skeins it takes in these videos. I want to make a baby blanket, but I want to get enough yarn to finish it after I begin....approx. how many yards in a dk weight

[@CrochetForBaby]

I’d say get between 500-600 grams. Not sure how big you’re making your blanket or which hook you’re going to use so all will depend on that.

[@KH-rf1pt]

Thank you!!! I am making a receiving blanket. That helped me alot! You are a great instructor and this is really easy to understand and follow! I am relearning the craft after 40 years. :)
