I ordered this book a while ago when it first came out. I really love the technique but just couldn't get it right. So I finally decided to check on youtube and here you are. I am absolutely thrilled about these videos. I was about to sell the book on ebay and give up. Thanks so much.
Good Morning Tanis, Thank you so much for responding so quickly to my question from yesterday... It was very helpful... I was wondering if you have a facebook page... I would love to post some of the projects I finish on your page to share with others.. I posted a link for your book on my facebook page in hopes that my other crochet friends will join in the fun... I hope you have a wonderful weekend. Annette.
I'm not on facebook yet. I haven't had time to work on everything. I am on Ravelry with the CGOA and I think I will start a public page for everyone to post their finished projects and make their comments on it. Also, if you haven't done so, write a very brief review or just copy your comments to the Amazon - Interlocking Crochet book page.
I have a question about your patterns in the book... for the designs, some of them say that it requires multiples of 6 sts + 6 or 4 sts + 4 or 12 sts + 8... what exactly does that mean??? That is not explained in the book, or I'm not understanding it clearly enough... I am trying to make an afghan with the squares/crosses and diamond pattern, but not sure how many chains to start it.. could you explain this to me please??
Hello Tanis, I was looking for something different to do with crochet on youtube when I came across your videos.. I ordered your book and had to find the patience to wait for it to come in so I could begin.. I have to say that I will not be going back to "regular crochet" ever again!!! You have changed my life and I can't express how happy that makes me... I look forward to any other books you may do in the future.. Thanks... Annette Fowler.
Hi Tanis! I saw your video on youtube and then ordered your book. I practiced the basics on a small swatch and am now ready to try each of the patterns. In the book, it looks like all of your samples are a similar size. I thought this could make a nice sampler afghan. It would be so helpful to know how many stitches you used on each of your samples. Is it possible to get that info? I appreciate your videos. I am excited to get started, and become proficient!
I tried to make the samples about the same size so I could unite them into a sampler myself. I tried to make them 8" x 8". This was usually 20 A blocks and 19 B blocks with an H hook. However, some designs require a different count so I would have adjust to that count. See the blog at Interlocking Crochet to explain # sts + # at each design.
You are welcome. I know sometimes you actually have to see the technique executed for it to make sense. A picture and some words may not be enough.
Thanks for writing.

Thanks for your question regarding 6 sts + 6, etc.
I tried to explain it here, but the characters are limited. Go to Interlocking Crochet website blog and I'll post the complete answer there.
Thanks for the great question.
