How To Crochet the Easy Blanket Stitch

[@caramiasmullen9892]

Hello, I use this stitch, and yes, I love this stitch. It sort of make a thermal effect I think, which makes for a very warm cover. In fact, my Daughter, 40 something lets not go all the way there... :)) still has this afghan that I made when she was 6 yrs old. What I really want to say to you is I like you and your work, and your help/tutorials, very much. They are always nice to listen to. And the most important part is that you follow through from the very beginning to the very end of your instructions/tutorials. It is nice that you do not just start after you have half the blanket done and teach the stitch showing you do only 5 to 10 stitches and then say..."now I think you've got it". No!, lots of ppl do not get it that fast. I have helped many that ask to clarify some ppl's tutorial...So!...GOOD JOB! ...and you are consistent...THANK YOU!

What a poised tone and cool hand movements.

[@jessicaford2092]

Great tutorial! My blanket is coming along beautifully. Thank you!

[@annecarson8942]

Thank you! Love this easy technique!

[@Kchirpy]

Thank you so much for this great tutorial. I'm learning and am such a novice. All I want to do is to be able to make a blanket for my mom!

[@thatonefujoshi3300]

I hope you were able to make her a blanket!!! 💖💕

[@radiatekind2719]

Is it possible to center your fingers/the work? Sometimes your hands go off camera, and it’s hard for me to follow, but I’m brand new to this! Really appreciate your patterns and the effort you put into tutorials!

[@hannahyokoyama149]

Planning on using this to make my first Afghan! Thanks for the tutorial!

[@reneejohnson4361]

Good Morning & Happy New Year! I'm working on one now for a friend. I wanted to try something different and this is it! So, Thank You so very Much, it is Appreciated!

Nice explanation; thanks! I love this stitch for baby blankets using a K hook and Caron Simply Soft #4 yarn. I add a row of SC to the chain before starting the first row of blanket stitch. To do that your beginning chain would be a multiple of 3 plus 1 (or was it plus 2?). Anyway, it doesn't seem to leave the holes in the first row of blanket stitches if you begin with a row of SC onto the beginning chain. (I also crochet into the back nubs of the chain stitches for the first row but that's just me.).

Thank you so much for this easy and beautiful pattern. I am enjoying the results . :)

[@lenalossev1839]

[@lsdev4229]

Nice and easy repeat, thank you for the tutorial!,Sharon.🥰

[@gloriamakin5973]

Love it. I am new crochet u make it look easy.excited to try it

[@emilycleek7901]

Would you consider doing a video tutorial for the Mid Heirloom block stitch blanket? I absolut8love the look of it but keep getting lost after row 2.

[@singingwolfdyeworks2391]

I love that stitch, thanks so much for the tutorial :-)

[@blackstarblues9055]

Does anyone have tips for keeping the edges straight? Mine started getting wider in row 3 for some reason.

[@zhinka1]

Thank you! If it is not too much trouble, what type of border did you use?

[@tkaart2242]

Please make a video on how to make your Las Cruces wrap shawl that uses the blanket stitch.

[@helenrieck2343]

How do you make the bottom edge match the top?

[@kamaratv25]

Would this stich be workable with a chunky yarn?

[@omaridicks8703]

kamaratv25 did you try with chunky?

[@elisutton4813]

I’ve done this with super chunky yarn and it works perfectly!

[@tanyasmith2679]

So, just to be clear, you said at the end, to just repeat 'that row' you mean row 2 is always on repeat or alternate between rows 1 and 2?

[@thatmom1032]

I have some random larger gaps. Is that normal? Am I doing something wrong? I love this pattern so far and I'm a beginner and able to follow it!

[@1414amh]

I'm very new to crocheting, but trying to make my mom a throw blanket for her birthday...What size needle did you use and how many stitches would you suggest for a throw blanket? Thanks so much!

[@pepitacorsahernadez7221]

Muchas cracias por su enseñansa yo la sigo mucho me encanta todo lo que hace y todo facil para nosotras .Reciba mi cariño y muchas bendiciones.

[@cloudydaez]

My pattern looks like a different texture to yours. Your piece seems flat but mine looks like clusters and are raised. I’m not sure if this is how it’s supposed to look but I am following you correctly there’s not much you can get wrong as it’s a simple pattern

[@virginiasweeney5992]

I love this blanket crochet blanket stitch, however I really need to be able to print out the instructions. Do you have a print option just for the instructions? Can you send me the printable instructions?

[@harmshoney]

This is my new favorite stitch! If I were to crochet this in the round, do you know what the multiples would have to be? Thank you for this tutorial! 💕

[@TinekeWilliams]

Harmony Perry multiple of 3 like she said

[@abigailmendoza7494]

Hello I was wondering if you have a sample video of the chunky sampler blanket crochet pattern- wintertide throw posted on Pinterest?? Thx 😊

[@margaretfletcher8769]

Really pretty, thank you x

[@mamainastitch]

[@5mcgoo]

[@margrietsmit6]

She has the instructions on her web page

[@gayle2345]

First, thanks Mama in a Stitch for your video. I also bought your printed pattern for this stitch on Etsy. For other beginners like me who are having difficulty determining where to place your hook in what stitch, here's another good video to watch. It shows a close-up of the stitches and the placement of hook clearly: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppawqZSfrcplp8U And for those whose work gets wider as they go, consider this tutorial that shows how to use stitch markers in the turning chain to help keep things on track: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWindJ1-nc6jl6s

[@aprilfiorillo2939]

Goes to fast to be a tutorial

[@janafarmer9922]

Slow it down in your settings. It helps alot

[@micahwhittaker8928]

Too fast and going off camera

[@amyhurd4424]

Impossible to follow for anyone hoping to learn way to fast!

[@jaydawelchel81]

i am a begginer and i was hoping to learn a new stitch but i couldnt understand maybe you should consider catering to begginers

[@sharonbaillif2026]

I have been crocheting for decades and as a beginner...self_taught...I could never understand this . Good luck to anyone who can, because you'll be an expert in no time!!!

[@Tadi3a]

I actually thought it was quite well done. You can slow the video down to make it easier to follow. Just use the three dots at the top right corner of the video to change speed. It helps.

[@amberleeann311]

Pretty pattern but you're going way to fast for beginners to watch.

[@nicolebrockney6340]

Your way too fast for a beginner
