Just found you. Thank you so much for the left hand stitching. Great rainbow

Welcome to my channel!

Do you make 2 of everything because you do right handed and left handed projects?

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

No, I make only 1 video but re-edit a second version with flipped images for the left-handed ones. I honestly can't do much with my left hand!

Can I make this for a Queen size blanket

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

You can but it will be a square. Just continue in pattern stitch!😊

I'm always looking for new continuous crochet blankets that don't gave big gaps, as I crochet preemie blankets for Project Linus Canada, and I need a break from Moss stitch blankets so thank you for this! I have a couple of questions - will this work well using all regular DC rather than the post stitches? Secondly, why does the first stitch have to be a chain 2, rather than just another stitch? My last question - can you turn your work after each row? I find my blankets are less skewed if I switch directions. Sorry for all the questions!

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

You would need to make some changes to the corners if making this in straight dc. I prefer using the ch-2, but you can use an extended stitch to start the round if you prefer. You can turn after each round, but that would affect the color change a bit depending on the type of yarn you choose to use.

@@BonnieBayCrochet thank you so much. I tend to have trouble stitching into a chain, I would not have thought of using an extended instead! I will give that a try!

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

@@cathymartin3379 be sure to follow the first several rounds since they are not all the same. Sometimes the chain counts as a stitch, and sometimes it does not in this design.

​@@BonnieBayCrochetif I do try this with regular DC instead of using post stitches, what changes would I need to make in the corners as you mentioned, or just follow your corners and do the sides with regular DC?
