Crochet Geek - Star Lite Crochet Baby Blanket Afghan

[staci369]

can you do this and use it as a shawl instead?

[tjw1963]

@staci369 Yes you could work it as a shawl. You could fold it in half and drape over your shoulders or you could work in rows. If you decide to work it in rows with an opening, you will need to push the popcorn to the front or you will have one PC worked on the front and one on the back.

Hello Teresa i am IN LOVE with this Afghan! do you have it maybe written out with out the popcorn stitch in it? or how what must i do to keep true to the pattern for example like 1 double crochet every time i see a popcorn stitch?

[tjw1963]

@Unitubeful You can replace the popcorn with a double crochet instead

[IdioticFeelings]

Hi! I'm pretty new to crocheting and i have a question about this blanket, how many balls of yarn do i need to make a blanket about 1-1,2m in diameter? Using a 3.5mm hook and a 3ply "ordinary" yarn? Thank you so much for your great tutorials! Grettings from a cold south Sweden

[tjw1963]

@IdioticFeelings I will estimate about 1500 meters. It is always better to have more.

[Lonely0Ruby]

I love it :)

[SexyPocahontas27]

hello, I have a question: Im using carron, simply soft to make things for my kids i love the feel of it, are there any other yarns you would recommend when it comes to a newborn, i need something comfortable and soft , anything else besides what im using now

[TheAmy223]

[lindsayleedowns]

Thanks for the video! I almost had it from the pattern, but was confused about a couple of things. This really cleared it up.

[felisskilyn]

[JanREBEL]

[koolstitches]

Thanks so much Teresa! You always bring me surprising things!

[spankses]

that is sooo pretty....gonna do that with my handspun yarn...what it the weight of the completed item? ....so i know haw much yarn to spin?

[ofelia5153]

me gusto mucho muchas gracias usted esplica muy claro y he aprendido mucho con usted

[sunshine1buttercup1]

Hey , how many skeins or balls of yarns are required to do this project following your instructions?

[freya1924]

That's the first time I've seen a Popcorn stitch made that way! Sure beats the heck out of removing the hook. Pity I'm already doing a baby afghan. But THIS is going in the queue. Intriguing work and definitely something a child would love to "moosh" with their hands. Thanks T!

[tjw1963]

@freya1924 I thought that too when I started doing it that way. The popcorn looks the same either way.

[moslimforever]

oke i will try it soon have to finish my poncho first

[maritere999]

Loooove this blanket. Thanks.

[tjw1963]

@maritere999 You are welcome.

[dtate001]

it's amazing how you make everything look so easy to make. I have trouble reading other patterns but ur videos and explainations make me look skilled and creative! lol thanks!!

[tjw1963]

@dtate001 Thank you. :)

[kristinel4christ]

and how do i download them i tryed but nothing

[kristinel4christ]

how can i get this one to download?

[tjw1963]

@kristinel4christ You will sign up for an account with Google Checkout and follow the instructions.

[moslimforever]

that looks great is it possible to make it whit 8points ????ans how would i do that if it is posible love your video's

[tjw1963]

@moslimforever Thank you. You could start with a larger chain and include two extra popcorn segments at the beginning. I have not worked it with 8 but it should lay flat.

[kristinel4christ]

I was wondering have you ever thought of putting your videos on cd , I would buy them :)

[tjw1963]

@kristinel4christ From November 2009 and before, you can purchase most of my videos individually as a download right here through YouTube, The problem I run in to is that some of the individual file sizes are so large, only one video would fit on a DVD.

[aliciazamora05]

That is cute. Im gonna have to try that one. can you use another size hook for it? I dont have an H.

[tjw1963]

@aliciazamora05 You can use a different size hook.
