Hi Glenda, I saw this stitch of the week a long time ago and came back to watch it again. I'm going to make a scarf for a friend, for her birthday with this stitch. I just love 💜 it. I so much love 💜 your Stitch Of The Week. You can make so many different projects with them. Thank you for always sharing with us.💜🙏🤗🧶

Thank you so much for your very comprehensive videos and for the free downloadable crochet patterns. I just picked up crocheting again since learning as a child, about 55+ years ago. You've answered so many of my age old questions in your videos, like why were the end of my rows not consistently straight and why were there holes at the end of some of my rows. I've toyed with the idea of taking up crocheting again over the years, but never did. Now that there are great videos on KZbin to teach just about every craft/hobby that someone would want to learn, I can re-learn to crochet in the comfort of my own home and at my own pace. I've got a list of your baby afghans, your video links and corresponding .pdf patterns that I would like to start making soon. I thank you again for your passion of crocheting and willingness to share your talent with the world. God bless you! 💟

Hi Barb,! Got ya back😎

[@carolehastings1902]

Love the texture you get with this stitch, it’s just lovely thank you for sharing 💕💕

[@angelinewilson5851]

I like this and am using it now for a blanket. Yet I'm carrying. Y yarn up the sides instead of cutting. I'll just do a simple border. Thank you for your videos.

[@dawnbaker9274]

Thanks. Liked that you showed the difference that a hook size makes. Loved your yarn colors.

[@ommira5388]

nice winter stitch Thank you

[@sandratanner8138]

Hi Glenda! 👋 I love the look of this stitch in the multiple colors. It looks more intricate without being hard. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Magic knot would eliminate the ends to weave in. That’s what I like to do. I hate having all of those ends.

[@sandratanner8138]

Jamie Faith Yott I hand wash my projects. But they say that it won’t come apart. It’s basically two knots snugged together.

[@KeepItSimpleNailsbyAllisonSoto]

Hi CG, I absolutely love this stitch, I can't wait to make something with this stitch! Thank you!

[@tammyjones5186]

I think I would really like a sweater in those dark colors. I like the stitch with the I hook for the sweater and the H for a rug or purse. Thanks for the stitch if the week.

[@roderolson]

I've done this before and love it!!

[@nohamansour1875]

Amazing video thank you so much 🌹

[@lailabaloch568]

Oh thank you for showing this stitch. I'm in love with it. Was just about ready to order yarn but didn't have a stitch that would be best for it. This one is perfect for my project.

[@marywilliams9145]

This was great, I like the earthtone one the best, I’ll have to get some of that yarn and do something with this stitch pattern. Thank you for sharing and teaching.

[@berthalloway9953]

I always seam to have trouble with this stich. This really helped me get better. Thank you for the help

[@brendacraig9043]

Don't forget you can carry the unused yarn up the side as you change every 2 rows lovely stich

[@erinmorrison6199]

Brenda Craig I’m crocheting around the tails

[@kbmightmight518]

I've been watching your video's a long time. Always wanted to try Stitch studio yarn but don't have so finally got to order some on line. I ordered one skein of every color they had available of this earth tone yarns. I think it was 5 colors, on sale for $5...yahoo! Can't wait to get it! Thanks for all these videos!

[@erinmorrison6199]

I started an Afghan using 225 stitches across and I’m using the same yarn but in butternut. Forest. Navy. Auburn. It’s turning out so nice thanks for teaching me this. Can’t wait till it’s done. Hopefully by Christmas 🎄

[@cwarren6487]

This is beautiful!!! I think it's just another variation on the Alpine Stitch.

[@kathleencockrell3777]

Thank you Glenda!!! I love the colors I myself would use a size J hook for an afghan.

[@ceulvia9680]

Wonderful...

[@garysdyer4126]

Hi Glenda, this is a great variation... hadn't thought to put a regular DC between FPDC... nice draping. Really like the Red Heart yarn as well... their Orchid purples are pretty too. Your sample with the Ice Yarn in Cakes Blue worked up nicely... so glad you used it since I wondered how it would look after your previous video. ☺

[@kathleencockrell3777]

I agree I too love Red Heart yarn for the price and durability

[@tisha1728]

I learned the hard way to do sample swatches. I was making a baby blanket and kept having to take it out because with the type of yarn I used and the colors I was working it up in I was having a hard time finding a pattern that looked nice. After starting over 3 or 4 times I finally did a long swatch with a bunch of different patterns connected together so I could compare them all together - the swatch ended up looking like a really weird scarf, but it definitely helped with find the pattern that looked the best with the yarn and colors.

[@charmurry3585]

Awesome

[@HiItsKris]

I'm not creative like you lol I love this stitch and making a school blanket for granddaughter out of purple gold and white. Making the most out of purple in single crochet to make it warmer for outside ballgames what kind of pattern should I do with the strips of this stitch like every so often? and what border would you recommend? I love everything you do and have made many things thank you so much for all you put out for free to us! Kris ❤ ❤

[@Gotjava]

Thank you for a great tutorial, had to check this out after seeing your current batik swatches. Is this similar to the Alpine stitch?

[@MsShar409]

Would this work to make a beanie or maybe a winter hat?

[@jillseaver2113]

Grandma, First I’d like to say thank you for all your tutorials I have made so many of your blankets and I love your patterns I would appreciate You sooo muchI have a question I would like you to do a tutorial on A keyhole blanket?? Please 😁

[@marywhitlow4690]

Will this pattern work for a hooded a hooded scarf ?

[@judywaldner7923]

Hi Glenda. can the stiitch be worked in a round headband. l would love to make a headband

[@billiejoethomason6075]

I understand these beautiful yarns are discontinued. Is there a substitute ?

[@twazzy40]

How do you stop the blanket from curling

[@lauraharris3533]

i would like to learn how to make a winter dress.

[@lauraharris3533]

With sleeves

[@danagalloway1217]

Hi. Love the purples! But I was wondering why you used half dbl crochet stitches at the beginning and ends of the rows instead of a dbl. Thanks =)

[@suelajdice5177]

Thank you. My son was visiting and saw your sample with the stitch studio by Nicole, and would like a bed spread in it, can't wait till its back in stock. Is there a reason you chain 2 when binding off in your rows? Great teacher.

[@CreativeGrandma]

It is the way I tie a knot. Just the way I was taught years ago

[@deeramos9416]

We just love this we did it at break. We seen a blanket the woman said textured was e stich can you help

[@CreativeGrandma]

Dee I never heard of the e stitch I will have to try to find it so I can see it

[@iceangels76]

An "e wrap" stitch is a type of stitch used in Loom Knitting. Is it possible that was a loom knitting pattern?

[@iceangels76]

@@CreativeGrandma There are 2 types of knit stitches in loom knitting, the "e" stitch and "u" stitch. Just letting you know so you don't look for hours for those stitches in crochet.

[@wandamuise2636]

Hi Glenda, again your stitch work is flawless and I love this stitch. I know you like the inline type hooks but, I am wondering in what you think of Clover Amour crochet hooks?

[@CreativeGrandma]

Wanda I never tried the Clover hooks, so can not say. Will have to try them.

[@wandamuise2636]

@@CreativeGrandma I really value your opinion in reviews. It's okay, I wouldn't want you to purchase them, just to try it because of me they are expensive. There are reviews out there in them but was jyst wondering what you thought of them. Thanks so much Glenda.

[@virginiaroberts4880]

my rows are stating to curl what can I do what stitch could be added to keep them rows straight

[@virginiaroberts4880]

my rows are curling really bad how can I fix it

[@retroboomer]

I'm doing an afghan using this stitch and it's curling up on me. 36" wide and I've done about 15 rows. I'm trying to crochet loosely. Is it going to get better?

[@kristelfuller8422]

Do you have a free video where you are showing how to change colors without making the tail?

[@donnacooper96]

Please provide the info for the ICE yarn - type & colorway.

[@CreativeGrandma]

Donna the Ice Yarn has very little information on it wrapper it says it is called Cakes Blue it is a (4) medium weight yarn it comes in 100 gr skeins. If you go to their website I would search using the Cakes Blue and it should show up. Its 100% Acrylic

[@sothpaw71]

Can this be used in a 3 weight yard for a blanket? Plus I LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS! YOUR THE BEST!

[@CreativeGrandma]

Yes just adjust your hook size for the best results.

[@sothpaw71]

@@CreativeGrandma thank you

[@emilylanham9635]

What size hook would you suggest for 3 weight yarn for this stitch? Love this btw! TY!

Sample swatch that’s the key for a happy life. Guess what? I never make a swatch😂. In fact I undo a huge lot of time before getting into the final project🤦🏻‍♀️

What about the butterfly stitch

[@JoshBombFiberArts]

Some I Love This Yarn, particularly the "Prints", has that same plush texture
