Tuula the shawl is so beautiful! It will make a lovely summer shawl cause here in South Africa it cools down at night in summer, I just love your tutorials !! 🥰🧶🌼

[@TuulaMaaria]

Wonderful, thank you, glad it will come in useful for you!

[@rachelmarben9485]

So cool, thank you! I love c2c but wanted more open stitches like lace, this is perfect!

[@TuulaMaaria]

Wonderful!

[@amarasharon]

Brilliant and Simple. Thank You

[@ireneoconnell5252]

I finished my first ever C2C blanket last month. I love the way it turned out. But your tutorial will make my next blanket more defined....it's just what I'm looking for. So I'll be making my next c2c following your tutorial. Thank you so much...!!

[@TuulaMaaria]

That's great, yes, adding the few stitches makes a difference in how it looks! Have fun making the next one 🙂

I thought this was going to be hard, but it's not! This would make a lovely fall shawl. Thank you 🤗

[@TuulaMaaria]

True, not hard! Yes, definitely make a shawl!

[@mamamia4745]

Took me half dozen tries but it's so beautiful I had to finally get the hang of it. Thank you!

[@TuulaMaaria]

Wonderful!

[@christines1924]

So clearly filmed and explained! I've made an afghan out of C2C and I loved doing it. I'm excited to crochet an airy shawl using the longer chains.

Sensacional! Assim fica mais bonito! Obrigada por compartilhar 💗 🇧🇷

[@LeoandTaurusCreations]

Ms. Tuula! This is gorgeous! I will be making this soon! 🥰. Have u named the stitch yet? I have a few suggestions! If u don't mind that is! 😉. I saw someone post about it in Reddit and it was gorgeous too! I think you should call it "The North Star Stitch". Or maybe, "Stars & Stripe's Blanket" Just a thought, but you know what they say about opinions... Everybody has them, 😂. Thanks again for all your amazing videos! As long as u keep making them I, and all my yarn art friends, will keep watching! Thanks for tackling the hard stuff! ❤️

[@TuulaMaaria]

Thank you! I had forgotten about that stitch, those are good suggestions! 💜

[@colleenmisner454]

I like the tighter stitches for this like you showed in the beginning .. do you have a Utube video for that one

[@TuulaMaaria]

No, I haven't got one for that, just decided not to make one because there are so many good ones on KZbin!

[@seijak2224]

Kiitos tästä ohjeesta! Minulla on runsaasti kasvivärjättyjä villalankoja joille en ole keksinyt käyttöä. Nyt aloitin huivin vai tulleeko siitä vauvan peitto.

I really want to do the shawl and lucky me I have just the yarn thanks

[@francaperotti5934]

Like this idea thanks

[@juneenver9854]

Could someone please explain to me how to do the decrease because i have tried and its just not working out.thank you

[@juneenver9854]

I forgot to add that i am doing a rectangle wrap

[@TuulaMaaria]

Where is the problem, what happens when you try?

[@empressnkzoo]

The last stitch in decease goes "in" and not even.

[@godcrochetchatter9234]

Is there a written tutorial for the shawl? Beautiful

[@TuulaMaaria]

Yes, I have the basic stitches explained in my blog. You find it at the end of the page below the video in www.knit-crochet-blog.com/how-to-crochet-lighter-corner-to-corner-stitch 😊

[@juneenver9854]

Thank you for this wonderful stitch.is it possible to make this a rectangle shawl

[@TuulaMaaria]

Yes, by working the edges differently. That would be a good idea for another tutorial!

[@darcy2965]

I'm ready now too :-)

[@1lonelyCrochet7307]

Thanks for the Tutorials. The 1st one I watch you do was the same with this one but it had Pecos on it. How many times do you turn one up N Crochet into it to start another Row? Take Care N Stay Safe 🤍💜🤍

[@TuulaMaaria]

The new one and this one don't have exactly the same amounts of stitches, the new one is lacier because it has 2 chains everywhere, this video only has one. I'm sorry I don't understand the question - what to turn up?

[@1lonelyCrochet7307]

@@TuulaMaaria I know it a little different because of the Pecos N the light wait yarn. How you flip up the three Double Crochets N connected them to start a Second Row how many times do we have to do that.

[@TuulaMaaria]

@@1lonelyCrochet7307 Just once, to turn it.

I would like to see a sweater tutorial done in c2c, I can't find a pattern anywhere

[@Sandy-rh8uz]

Thank you for this tutorial! I just came across your channel and I love it!! Your explanation is very easy to follow! I have a question and hope you can help me. I have started a C2C afghan before seeing this video and I would like for the colors to match at each end but I have no idea how or when to start decreasing. Right now it is approximately 57 inches wide and I have 75 rows. I hope this makes sense.

[@TuulaMaaria]

I'm trying to understand what way it would go but I'm afraid I'm so bad at maths that without actually having the piece in front of me I can't picture it in my head!

[@Sandy-rh8uz]

@@TuulaMaaria that's ok. I appreciate you getting back to me. Have a wonderful day!

[@darcy2965]

How to make a rectangle? I haven't done a complete regular C2C yet? Ice rather do this version that's more lacey. Thank you

[@TuulaMaaria]

Towards the end of the video, at 8:45, I'm showing how to decrease, so to make a rectangle you first start to decrease from one side and continue increasing on the other until the piece is big enough.

[@refikciftcioglu4647]

Dear Tuula, I wonder is it possible make zig zag with this tehcniks? jill sander's fashion show has a like this pattern. I tried to do But I couldn't manage

[@TuulaMaaria]

Yes, it's possible to do any design with this technique, just like with the tight pixel crochet. You could follow instructions and chart for a design and just add the chains in between pixels.

[@DawnaLovesYarn]

What would you advise to finish off the edge for use as a shawl?

[@TuulaMaaria]

I haven't used anything for the edge, just stopped crocheting. But you could make a border of single crochets or especially reverse single crochet look good.

[@mamamia4745]

Can't wait to this for my daughter. I've got 7 oz/294 yd of Lion Brand 'landscapes ' yarn. Would that be enough for a shawl?

[@TuulaMaaria]

You could make a mini shawl with that amount. For an average size in Aran weight like that yarn is, you would need around 900 yards. But the great thing with this is that since you start at the tip of the triangle, you can finish any time, or decide to get more yarn if it isn't big enough. Good luck!

[@karenkoutsoumbaris6308]

What yarn and what size crochet hook are you using? I love this , very pretty

[@TuulaMaaria]

The yarn is basic wool in double knitting weight and hook size if 4 mm. But that's quite thick for a shawl as it is just to show the technique. You could use finer yarn and hook 3.5 mm.

[@tuijakumlander5447]

Onko mahdollista saada suomenkielisiä ohjeita?🤗

Kuinka hyvin toimii, jos laittaa tekstityksen päälle ja siihen automaattisen käännöksen?
