I love C2C and have done many graphgans. Congratulations on having it click. That was the secret for me, it just had to ‘click’. 😊

Thank you for watching, I love the graphgans, do you have a favourite designer?

@@CrochetwithClare Sorry, I don’t really have one to recommend. I usually use Stitchfiddle to design my own or use a simple grid pattern I find on Pinterest. But there a lot of great designs on Ravelry. I want to make Evelyn and Peter’s Daisy Day Throw soon. Good luck with your crafting adventures!

It's a lovely colour you're using. I found the c2c easy, it was the granny square that took me 30 years to master.

Made several C2C using Caron Simply Soft for most of them but now exploring other brands of yarn. Had to watch several videos to get what I was supposed to do. When I found the tutorial by The Purple Poncho it finally clicked for me.

I wanted to make a C2C blanket forever. I would watch videos and get so confused. I kept going back and trying over and over and my brain felt scrambled until it finally clicked and I loved it. I just found it to be so easy after I got the hang of it. I did a very large one last winter in the color Time Square. It turned out so pretty and so soft and warm.

Great to see you. I have a C2C blanket in progress (it has been for while 😂) using cake yarn. I only used the shades of blue in the cake and removed the neutral colour. This yarn I made into a hat.

Thank you. Sounds great and what a wonderful idea to take out the colour you dont want and use it in another project.

Have not tried corner to corner. But now I will try. You are an excellent teacher an if you’re trying that’s good enough for me 😃 I think your little sample looks good. Make another with the bigger hook. If you made a tutorial I’d do it for sure. So happy to see you ♥️Can’t wait to see your finished project 😃

I don't do c2c for the exact same reasons you stated. I'm like you, cannot wrap my head around it. My version of a c2c is your granny stitch on the angle. Lolol would love to see a simplified version of c2c. Loved this video

I adore C2C. I have used ombre yarns (my favorite), striping yarns, have done solids and made stripes, etc. I have not done the ones that have graphics in them. It took me forever to get going on C2C. I had a psychological block against it. I had tried it with a tutorial that was really horrible and it traumatized me! Then I watched Jayda in Stitches and The Secret Yarnery. They both are amazing in teaching and I got it!!! Now C2C is my favorite go-to stitch! I love it because you can make a rectangle or a square, but whatever it is, it just closes up beautifully and it's magic! 🩶

@CrochetwithClare 25 күн бұрын

Yes, it is like MAGIC! It's great when you can find a crochet teacher that explains it in a way you understand 🥰

@denisemurphy8928 Ай бұрын

When I first crocheted a corner 2 corner it took me a while to figure out which way I was going. And if I put it down for awhile it took me some time to figure out how to proceed again.

yes, i think that is what i am going to me like haha. Pretty sure I have already forgotten what to do.

My friend taught me to crochet 9yrs ago but I taught her to do C2C 😂 I love doing c2c n always use a bigger hook than yarn says.

Hi 👋 I’ve made a few C2C blankets. I’ve just finished a C2C blanket for my King bed in Mandala Ombré It took me about 3months with a 3 week break for a sore wrist. I did 2ch instead of 3 and 5 instead of 6. To make it more closed and I love it. Got it on my bed just in time for the freezing weather here in Bendigo Victoria. I hope you enjoy making one 🤞

I really enjoy C2C blankets & crochet a lot of them for cat blankets for our local pet shelter with scrap yarn. Just today I finished off my Felix Blanket which is a very clever twist on the C2C blanket & looks stunning in scrap yarn! You'll find a series of tutorials on YT of the Felix Blanket. Christa at The Secret Yarnery did some great beginner tutorials on C2C as well as a gorgeous gingham blanket using C2C. Yes, I'd definitely change to a bigger hook to give it more drape & softness. 🥰Blessings from South Australia💕🐨

Hi Claire, it took me a few tries on the c2c, but once i got it, i have made many blankets, i am even making 8 x 8 squares out of my straps. I think you should use a bigger hook , but not too big, then you see the spaces. I use a 5.0mm

I do like the C2C. I wouldn't frog that unless you want to continue that and make something out of it. I also don't like to take a table if the establishment is busy. Here in the US it deprives the server from tips, too. If I do stay longer I'll add to the tip to make up for it.

@CrochetwithClare Ай бұрын

I know I couldn't be the only one, here is Australia it's not common practice to tip the server. I was going to keep the sample piece so I know what it supposed to look like 😀

I suggest a larger hook so it isn’t as dense and will have more drape. I’m making “scraptastic” blankets that are turning out to be fantastic!

I've never done c2c and it doesn't really appeal to me. A few years ago there was a baby girl on her way in the family. I'd never made a baby outfit but I thought I'd give it a go. I found a pattern and videos for a bonnet, dress, bloomers and booties. My goodness, I just about gave up on the dress because I was having such a hard time with the yoke. I was determined and very grateful for the videos. I think the name of the KZfaq channel is crochet for baby. Anyways, with yours, it looks like you've cut the yarn already. I wouldn't bother unraveling/frogging it, I'd just start over. You've got this, you go girl, practice makes perfect 👌.

@CrochetwithClare 29 күн бұрын

Oh no, that's frustrating when the pattern is hard 😕 Yes, I agree, I'm going to keep the sample because I think it will help me start the next one.
