I love this stitch...very easy pattern. I'm doing a blanket for my new great grandson. I'm so glad I found you, very easy to follow along with you and then continue on your own. Thank you

[@nanascraftyhome]

So glad you found it helpful! This stitch would make a fabulous blanket - congrats on your new great grandson! ❤️😊

[@7carolmac]

Great video thank you I am just starting another blanket for my other grandson. Turned out great I improvised as I went among, ended up doing lengthwise instead of widthwise and started running out of red so did I row on each side. Love how it turned out . Trying to attach pic. Now onto the next one.

Thanks so easy I’m doing a blanket for my newborn granddaughter. How much chain should I do for baby blanket? I love the Where are you explain everything you are a great teacher

[@nanascraftyhome]

So glad you found the video helpful! The standard crib size baby blanket is 45" wide x 60" long - however that is just a guide. Your beginning chain will depend upon what size yarn and hook size you use as well to get to the 45" (or size desired). Your beginning ch will need to be in multiples of 3 + 6 for the foundation ch. So just make sure when you have the size achieved in width with your ch that the number of chains will be multiples of 3 + 6 and you will be good to go! Hope that helps! 😊❤️

Hie there, nice video and easy to understand, how do I make an increase using this pattern for a beanie or hat

[@carolynmadewell4302]

Thanks so much!

[@nanascraftyhome]

You're welcome! ❤️

[@barbaraheacox5027]

I did not see written pattern. I thought your tutorial was very clear but I like it on paper till I get the hang of it!!

[@nanascraftyhome]

So sorry - this was one of my earliest tutorials before I started doing photo/written tutorials to correspond to the video. However, you can check out the written pattern for the Hearts Aflutter Scarf here which is the same stitch: nanascraftyhome.com/hearts-aflutter-scarf-free-crochet-pattern/. I hope it helps!

[@lindajustacrochetsister4659]

[@arminehshahnazarian8550]

Thank you🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️

[@nanascraftyhome]

You're welcome 😊

[@hollydement2359]

Can you please tell me what kind of hook youre using? It looks like the shaft is slightly longer...qhich i love, but they're hard to find! (for ME, anyway. Lol)

[@nanascraftyhome]

Absolutely! I am using a Clover Amour hook - one of my favorite! You can find out all about them here: clover-usa.com/collections/amour-crochet-hooks

[@hollydement2359]

@@nanascraftyhome THANKYOU! I keep hearing clover is the best; i guess im gonna try them! 😉

[@louisegriffith956]

I want to do an adult blanket with the v-stitch. How many stitches do I chain on for this blanket.

[@karenholly6221]

Good tutorial. I am using to make scarves to donate next winter.

[@nanascraftyhome]

So glad you found the tutorial helpful! What a wonderful thing to do!

[@qyet61]

Hi Tonya, I want to make this stitch in squares. Do you make two rows for each colour?

[@nanascraftyhome]

Yes - I do two rows for each color, drop and then pull in the second color which means fewer ends to weave in. I hope that helps! 💕🌸

[@qyet61]

I should have watched the whole video 😃😅

[@jollystuikie]

Great tutorial😘

[@nanascraftyhome]

Thank you so much!

[@aroberts848]

Hi Tonya! Would you get the same effect if you use 2 strands of yarn, or would it be recommended to only use 1?

[@nanascraftyhome]

Absolutely that should be fine! I would recommend trying out a small swatch to begin with to make sure you like how it looks before starting a large project - that way you can be sure you will be happy with your finished project. Happy crocheting! 😊

[@SomewhereInIndiana1816]

👍👍👍

[@krazymammaw3040]

Did u mention hook size ? I didnt hear it if possible let me know

[@nanascraftyhome]

mom Woodard if you are making the Hearts Aflutter Scarf pattern you would use a size I (5.5 mm) hook. Here is a link to the written pattern for further details. I hope it helps! nanascraftyhome.com/hearts-aflutter-scarf-free-crochet-pattern/

[@sandygrogg1203]

mom Woodard. I believe she was using ab H-8...

[@kmcgoldrick514]

How do you do the single crochet border to hide the yarn ?

[@nanascraftyhome]

Heart Hook Home has a great post & video to help with adding a border in crochet - hope it helps! 😊

[@nanascraftyhome]

Here is the link: hearthookhome.com/how-to-add-a-border-in-crochet/

[@AnnaBoisseau1291]

Love the video- really pretty! One question: at the end of the row, do you dc in the stitch or the chain space? I can’t tell :(

[@nanascraftyhome]

So sorry that was unclear for you in the video - you are making a dc in the top of the turning ch 3 from the previous row. I hope that helps! ❤️😊

[@pattyann4283]

The Moss/Linen stitch and the V Stitch looks the same😝

[@simonevachon5082]

Do you have a pattern for a man hat

[@nanascraftyhome]

At this time I don't have any hat patterns that are geared specifically to men. Thank you for asking! 😊

[@melodymaben5917]

Any border for this ?

[@nanascraftyhome]

I made a heart stitch border for this scarf and provide a KZbin tutorial at the following link I hope you find it helpful! kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y6SnpKujmNKhaLc

[@Candykiss02]
