I have made two of these and am just starting a third. The way I was taught, you make a loop (and tail) at each end which makes a nice fringe. I'm remembering how to tie off the end fringe but not remembering how to start a row with the loop. Darn...it was like a slip knot only ended up being three strands of yarn at the end of each row for fringe. Nice edging!

@NancyReid Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

[GLENNIEPIE]

IS IT POSSIBLE TO DO THIS IN DOUBLE CROCHET?

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THE TAILS?

HOW MANY CHAINS DO YOU RECOMMEND TO MAKE AN ADULT BLANKET?

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR WONDERFUL GIFT!!

[tjw1963]

@GLENNIEPIE Anywhere from 175-250 would make a nice size adult afghan. You can work it the same with double crochet.

@GLENNIEPIE I weave all the tails between the stitches.

Is it possible to use this for a blanket?

[tjw1963]

I think it would make a great blanket. It may take some time but it would be well worth the effort and work put in to it.

I even realized that after a few rows I don't need to count anymore :) Needless to say...I LOVE THIS!!!!!

[KIESHACLARKE30]

Woo Hoo!!! I got it!! THANK YOU SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­O much for doing this video. I NEVER thought that making a reversible blanket would be so easy. I got lost the first time I tried it, but then I got it!! You made this so EASY to learn, I am SUPER excited and can't wait to make a reversible blanket!! Thanks again!! :)

Is there a way to make a reversible crochet ski cap? I found I pattern for a reversible hat, and was going to try to figure it out, but the pattern is poorly written, and I don't really understand it.

Thank you so much!

@JTVAL08 --May I suggest that you join the two edges with a slip stitch or sc together the two edges.

[TheSalami123]

Is there a written pattern for this stitch.

[nachomama07]

I've joined the ends and go back and forth to create a headband/hat - but can't for the life of me figure out how to decrease on this stitch. One colour goes, then when alternating to the other colour it just doesn't match up anymore. Ahhh it's driving me crazy! Help?

[KDragos4]

Is it possible to do one type of stitch (like a shell) on one side and something else on the other?

[ladesyrable]

Thanks for the tutorial, Teresa! I knew the stitch, used it with one colour only to make the soles for slippers, but it never occurred do me to it this way. Watched the video last night, and since i am working on a pair of slippers for a friend, it must have matured over night and after some fiddling and fumbling this morning, I took it a step further and now have soles that are striped in 2 colours on one side and a different solid colour on the other :D thanks again!

[JTVAL08]

is there any specific way to do the last row so that there isnt a "half" of a row sticking up? maybe going through the front and back loops of one side AND the remaining back loop of the other side? (i dont know if i'm being clear enough)

[kristenheartnick]

Could this stitch be manipulated into a hat? if so could you consider doing a tutorial on it?
