It does add an extra knot but it doesn’t change the main pattern the video shows how to do it, Masha Knots also has good videos on this technique. It makes sense once you try it you will see that it works. I haven’t heard of knitting over 2 strings though.

I think it would, I’m actually making one with the stylecraft naturals & Hobbi cotton bamboo yarn. It’s very soft and the higher twist means no splitting issues, but it is on the thinner side so I wouldn’t make a full size blanket with it (would take forever to make) but I think it’s good for a baby blanket.

That is also my experience, audio only plays in the left earphone

Hi thank you for the heads up, I will look into it! I’m good with crafting but not so much with tech… I got a new mic and might have it on the wrong setting. Sorry about that!

Honestly just practice and also blocking afterwards. You might be able to try different hook materials too- I only use clover amour hooks which have a slightly textured metal finish, but I’m thinking maybe a wood or plastic hook would provide more grip and help with the slippery nature of the yarn?

Thank you! I have been wanting to try wooden and bamboo hooks, now I have a good excuse 😊

Add #10 thread 4 structure?

Wood hooks and needles. Simpler stitch patterns that are more forgiving.

For all friendship bracelets you generally want your strings to be the length from fingertip to fingertip (when arms are held straight out to either side), also called a “wingspan”. Remember to double that if you plan to make a loop start, since you’ll be folding the strings in half. Sorry I didn’t mention that in the video, I think I just said “the usual length” or something like that.

It’s very nice 👍🏻

I’m making a baby blanket with it right now and wondering about pilling too- it doesn’t seem like it would but there is a very slight fuzziness to it so would be worth creating a sample swatch to wash a few times and see- if I test it I’ll let you know the results. The color used here is “canyon”, a nice vintage coral type color. I’m pairing it with “natural”, “apricot” and white in my blanket, pretty good combo.

Oh and it’s made in Turkey

Depends which one but usually it’s used for summer garments since it’s cool & breathable like cotton rather than warm like wool or acrylic.

@@patternandcraft3908 That's what I thought. Thank you!

I've made pretty poppies to glue onto hair clips for children. Bibs for very little babies cuz super sensitive under the chin during bottle feedings and drooling. Summer pieces and lighter head coverings. I'm making blankets and newborn sets with cotton bamboo blends. Very good for anyone with skin sensitivity like post chemo or psoriasis if it's pure bamboo.

I got mine from Amazon

I paused it and saw "regular length strings, and one 10 cm longer. No help at all.

You would have to undo the edge slip-stitch join, wash, then redo it. Or construct it differently.

@@patternandcraft3908 not helpful...anyway, Thanks for the reply

@@jgv1196 Yeah it’s not ideal but tbh I don’t think I’ve ever washed any of my other decorative throw pillows, just vacuumed them… I have seen some where people make the back side 2 pieces with buttons or ties though. Sorry.

Please translate in English

Hi there I’d like to help but I can’t really understand what you mean- maybe send me a message on Instagram with a photo?

Sorry about that, it sounds fine on both my phone and computer at medium volume. I do want to improve the sound quality though, will be getting a proper mic soon.

headphones help. I had no problem hearing her.

Yay! It’s crochet and not bracelet content like most of my previous videos, but I’m glad you appreciate it all the same! I have another video in editing now that explains a bit about the gap and the direction I plan to take the channel… I should probably make a community post but just wanted to get this video out asap first 😉

@@patternandcraft3908 Glad to hear it. I've always found your work to be beyond creative and beautiful so I'll watch whatever you post.

I’m glad you like it! I use DMC embroidery floss.

Thank you! Would you mind sharing the colors you used? They set the pattern off perfectly.
