This was a requested video for the classic granny stripe. This is a timeless stitch that is perfect for beginners as well as a staple for seasoned crocheters. I'm going to be sharing how to design your own sampler blanket very soon and this would be a great stitch to be included. xx

I started a blanket with v-stitches. I was thinking there’s too much space, then I came across your video! I promised my husband I wouldn’t frog the first 2 rows I’ve done. So, thanks to your instructions, I’ll have the granny clusters through the whole blanket except the first two and last two. That way it’ll be uniform. Thank you so much. The granny clusters will look better. 👍🏼

When I make blankets I just measure the foundation chain until it is about 4 inches longer than I want just because it will get a little shorter once you work some stitches into the foundation or starting chain. As far as length, just continue rows until you get as long as you want. In regard to following patterns that call for a specific number of stitches, you can look at the stitch pattern and figure out if you need an even number to get a straight corner, or an odd number. Say I'm doing a stitch pattern with 3 row repeat and double crochet clusters like this video, I will take into account my starting stitch being placed in thr 3rd chain so I'll want to add 3 more stitches once I have my final number of chains. I'm so sorry I'm terrible at explaining things 😅

Possibly, but remember this is worked in a multiple of 3 so you’ll have to double check the math and see if it still works if you only skip 1 instead of 2 . You might find that this distorts on you and starts curling up . But the only way to know is to do a test swatch for yourself and see . And I’d recommend that .🙂

Thank you Roz, for this tutorial but I’m still struggling because I don’t understand the multiples. How many chain stitches do I need to crochet a blanket that is 64” wide? I know that sounds like a big one…because it is. My son is 6’1 tall at 16yr and wants a blanket he can wrap himself in, better than store bought with are usually too short for his long legs! He still growing, so this blanket needs to be big enough for him to have room to grow in. 😂😂🤣 would you please do a video on how to figure out multiples? This is my biggest problem with learning how to crochet; is learning how to make the correct amount of stitches. Can tell you how many blankets I’ve had to whip out because the multiples were wrong and then I get so frustrated, I’m like, forget it and frog it back and put it in the closet.

It’s much easier than you think for multiples so not to worry. The easiest way is to get yourself a tape measure so that you can check when you’re getting close to the measurement you want. For example, you want yours to reach 64” and the multiple for this pattern is 3 +1. Ignore the plus 1 until the very end. Keep chaining in multiples of 3 until you get close to you 64 inch mark. Use your tape measure. 3,6,9, 12, 15…. Another way you can do it is, chain until you reach your 64 inches and count how many chains you have. See if you can divide it by 3 (since that’s the multiple for this pattern) If it can’t , then add or take a chain away to make sure it does. THEN when you’re all set with that , add your plus 1 chain. That’s to help you make that first stitch and keep the multiple accurate. Hope that makes sense but if not , let me know ❤️

Yes , you’re going to focus on the width you want it to be then just keep working rows until it reaches the height you want it. For the chains it would be 3, 3, 3 all the way across then 1 more at the very end . However, I have one that is even easier than this one which is just a 1 row repeat. Check it out here . It’s the exact same stitch but an easier stitch count to follow. One Row Repeats for Instant RELAXATION 🧶 kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6O0nJeFq9unsK8

What sometimes helps, especially if you tend to crochet tightly, is to go up a hook size just for the foundation chain. Another thing I will do is chain a few stitches and gently pull to put them all into alignment, as foundation chains do have a tendency to curl. If the foundation chain is really wonky, I will sometimes turn and do a row of single crochets across the top before I start the pattern.

It will depend on your yarn and hook size so it’s hard to say. A good size for a lap blanket is 3x4 ft and 4x5 Ft . I would recommend getting a ruler or tape measure and make chain until you reach the measurement you like best 💕

Do you think this would make a nice baby blanket? What size hook would I use?
@PlayHookywithMe
@PlayHookywithMe 6 ай бұрын
It would be perfect for a baby blanket😀. I’d recommend a weight 3 or 4 yarn with a 4-5 mm hook This sample was made with a wt 4 yarn and 4mm hook 💕

It’s hard to say for sure without seeing it but it sounds like a tension issue. If you are a loose crocheter , you might want to try a smaller hook size to counteract that. I’m a tight crocheter so I usually have to go up a hook size. See if that helps 💕🧶

how many chains should you have at the beginning to make a twin size blanket?
@PlayHookywithMe
@PlayHookywithMe Жыл бұрын
Just as many as you need. I would recommend using a tape measure and chaining up to the width of a twin size measurement (google twin size bed measurements) or take a twin size bed that you have on hand and chain along the width of the blanket. It’s hard to answer specifically as I don’t know your hook and yarn sizes.

I'm sorry for a stupid question; it looks like there are chain stitches in between the dc clusters on row 2, but you don't say that or show it. Am I seeing things? Or, do you just move from one cluster to the next without any chains in between?

How do I better hide the yarn sticking out of the sides from color switching. I used a darning needle but I still feel like it’s noticeable
@PlayHookywithMe
@PlayHookywithMe Жыл бұрын
You should be able to hide that with a border after you are finished. A simple sc or hdc border would work.

@PlayHookywithMe
@PlayHookywithMe 8 ай бұрын
I would recommend you use a tape measure and chain up to the 40 measurement in multiples of 3 . Then add one more when you reach the end. This is how I would do it to know the answer. I don’t know your hook size or yarn weight so mynumber will come out different than yours 💕

@@ch1pp1 in that case then you’re losing stitches somehow. You need to unravel it back to when it was still straight. count the stitches or clusters . See how many clusters (3 dc’s grouped together) you have in each row . If they are the same amount it will stay straight for you. If they are different, that is where you need to go back and redo the row 💕
