If I want to crochet for adult blanket. Can I do that and how this is my first time crochet. Thank for yr lesson.

[mikeyssmail]

@xalang yes you can make this into an adult blanket....follow the tutorial the same and with more yarn keep going around and around until the blanket is the size you want ;) Cathy @ The Crochet Crowd helpdesk :)

[suegray60]

too small even to be preemie blanket...8 rows not enough and this is a zellers store that has been taken over by Target so they are getting rid of everything...might just have to find another colour that will go with it

[mikeyssmail]

@suegray60 Wow mine was bigger than that... I wonder what the difference is... What size was your balls! LOL funny to ask that! Don't say huge because that's what they all say! LOL

@mikeyssmail the balls do matter, most of what I have found available is 3.5oz only,, so I need 6 balls instead of just two. the price works out to about 20.00 us dollars.  So It works out cost wise to be the same.. Just more balls.

@hibird357 yes we are aware of the differences in the sz of the skiens that are available and are going to add a message in the video explaining this!! cathy@the crochet crowd helpdesk :)

I made this in 3 rounds and I would like to join it as squares to make a blanket . It's not very square though because of the 2dc 1 CH 2dc corners . Will it still work ?

Just picket up a 1 pound Baby Blanket yarn ball at AC Moore for 5$ and it should be enough. Thanks for the tutorial.

I just bought this yarn today at AC Moore, I got the 300g ball in Pitter Patter, white, and blue. am doing one blanket in just Pitter Patter and will let you know how much yarn it takes.

I just finished this blanket. I am a month into learning how to crochet and this was my first project. I made it with the solid baby blue color, my sister is due to have a boy in april. It turned out so nice im so proud of my self and i know the baby is going to love snuggling up in it. Thank you so much for this tutorial Mikey. Im looking forward to the next project.

I am thinking of using one roll of the Bernat and then one of the Bernat Pipsqeak. I would have to use two sizes of hooks but I think it would turn out amazing. What do you think Mikey? I want to make it for myself because I love soft blankets:)
