    Thank you so much, Toni!! This is so well done! As a beginner in the art of crochet, you have inspired me to attempt this project. I am an experienced knitter who has long been enamored with beautiful crochet projects - and this is one of them. Thank you so very much!

      Toni, thank you for inspiring me with this beautiful blanket… my granddaughter has watched me crochet and ensemble this blanket and keeps throwing out hints about how much she likes it… so, one Christmas present is soon to be completed!! Love your channel !

    OMG...I usually put one of these scrap yarn projects off because of the joining squares process. This is a complete game changer. Love it!

    That is the easiest magic ring I’ve ever seen! My new go-to! You are genius!

    • @creative2716
      @creative2716 Před 3 lety +3

      That was not a magic ring, just a slip stitch to begin.
      Use it all the time.

    • @theresahartman7465
      @theresahartman7465 Před 3 lety +2

      I think that’s what a magic ring is.

    • @meganmills6545
      @meganmills6545 Před 3 lety +1

      @@theresahartman7465 No - the magic loop or ring is actually different - but it doesn't matter in the end, just do whatever works for you and you enjoy doing. After the first round is done, adjusted and the tail tided away nobody can tell which method you used anyway (without really close inspection).

    Thank you, Toni! I first learned to crochet when I attended vocational bible study in South Georgia when I was in middle school ( I believe), and I stopped crocheting for years (over 20 years). I have recently started back crochet, and you make relearning crochet very easy. Thank you for all of your work.

    I bought this pattern and yarn few months ago but haven’t started yet. Was so glad to see a tutorial. I’ve been learning to read patterns and your video gave me confidence by confirming I can read a pattern. Yay!! One thing that is different from the pattern is the standing double crochet to join but I think that’s amazing and looks better than a chain 3. Thanks Toni! Love your designs so much!

    Beautiful granny square blanket. I wish I had the patience to make this but I don't. Usually when I make a granny square blanket i make bigger blocks and less blocks. I made a granny square blanket using 15 blocks using 3 colors. i have to give to you you got patience and talent.

I also loved how you gave alternative yarn suggestions too. This is the first time I've seen such an organized method of laying out your squares and making your pattern grid. I really like that! And the join-as-you-go method. Thank you so much for sharing your skills! ❤

    I just don’t know where to start about how good this video is. I’m an experienced crocheter, but I’ve never heard of the standing double crochet join. I love it! And I love this join-as-you-go method that you used. I was so excited about this pattern that I immediately pulled out scrap yarns and started working on it. Since I am a quilter, I’m used to laying out blocks and arranging them before sewing them together. So I made a bunch of the colored squares of just the first two rounds so I could use them to arrange on a board to get my colors right. Oh, and by the way, I decided I would weave in the ends on each one before I join them together! That really helped out! You just can’t escape all those dangling ends on granny squares, I guess! Great job! Now I have to go back and watch all your other videos! 😻😻😻
